This looks like I can answer with my cell phone keyboard!  (On a side note, please forgive my more numerous than usual spelling mistakes in this.  I don't have spellcheck on my phone, and my spelling is lamentable at the best of times.)

Give me a character and I'll tell you a piece of my personal headcanon. Any fandom is welcome here, provided that I am reasonably familiar with it.

That's what I've been thinking myself, even if I haven't been able to put it in words. He did treat Asami and Korra badly, but he isn't bad person. Just kid who had to take too much responsibility too early and hasn't quite finished growing up completely.

Oh yes, he does not to right by our girls, but Zuko was a complete asshole to Iroh for most of the show, and we love him anyway. This fandom is not shy about loving jerkfaces as long as they're also total angstmuffins with the potential to do better.

Of course a lot of the problem is that fandom wants him to be Zuko, and... no.

He is not Zuko. I absolutely adore (and obsess over) Zuko, and I like Mako, but even I don't consider them to be same type of character.

Me neither. Oh Fandom...
