Wait, switching boy-girl every time would add to the sexual stereotypes, since there's an even number of elements. Since Aang is a guy and the water-tribe member is a girl, that means earth would always be male and fire always female.

Why does the sun rise each morning? To get away from Topg Beifong.
Why does it sink each night? Because it doesnt dare to stay above her.

Well a fun story so far and one I will read further into.
But as you mention the Honorverse, what would canon Azula before The Boiling Rock be called by the Treecats?
One name that comes to me is 'Caged/Chained Star'

No, I'm beginning to get the idea that the universe is trying to tell me something," Sokka said.

Ahahahah ah love that line! And Toph being the chuck Norris of the world is hilarious

Boy-girl-boy-girl? What about Roku and Aang?

Nah, scratch that, this story is great :)

I really like this story. I really really like this story. It's one of those awesome what if fanfics and it has a hint of dark gritty reality that I'm really fond of. Unfortanatley, and I feel kinda bad pointing it out, but I'm pretty sure that Zhos name is actually Zhao.

Sorry, but I felt the Sokka and Azula kiss event wasn't foreshadowed enough. ...Though I'm not sure how much more was needed...

Guess it partly depends on how much their relationship appears in the story. If it's going to be prominent I'd suggest checking out the Extra Credits Youtube video, Shivering in Anticipation, or as I personally remember it, the Tension and Release Cycle for your future stories.

It focuses on horror, but I feel it explains it well enough to show how it applies to other genres.

Kasha's target prioritization kind of reminds me of CounterMonkey's warnings about how when he's running a DnD game, if you're a wizard, don't dress like one. Because people will know what you are and focus fire to end you for the same reason we'd fear someone with a bazooka.

"And the water tribe is a is twin pair of misogynistic morons who need to be taught a serious lesson by Somebody!"

Nice. Using humor to make someone usually portrayed as a warmonger more likable. Especially as their points sound plausible.
Do you listen to the same writing advice website as me, have teachers who explained this, discovered it in study, or did you notice the trick yourself?

Whichever it was, nicely done.

Sozin, the genocidal psychopath, draws the line at misogyny.

Pakku is spelled with two "k"s.

I'm pretty sure that it's the Mechanist, not the Mechanic. I know that this is a lot of criticism, but I still think that this story is very good and would like to help make it even better.

I'm a little worried that you're making airbenders too powerful and I'm not sure about Amy learning sandbending instantly, but this seems like a good section in general.

I forgot to mention in my long, complicated, and probably overly critical review last chapter that the humorous sections are really well done, and that I rarely like a humorless story, it just seems kind of odd.

I think that I worked out what makes the pacing feel so odd. It has all of the plot elements of a long, serious story, but it isn't, and I am still not sure whether I like that or not. It is also a lot more episodic than I expected it to be, but that is one of the main elements that makes it less serious: the majority of the problems are solved in no more than three chapters. For the romantic elements, that never interests me much, but again it is faster and more episodic than other similar stories. That makes it seem slightly forced, but I am grateful for the relative lack of angst.

This is an interesting story, but the characters seem to be going too fast relative to the plot. The plot itself is a reasonable pace, but it feels like we're seeing no more than every other day, and even then only the ones that are necessary to make some point or another. I distrust some of the future arcs based on the foreshadowing so far, but "void bending" is much more innocuous than I would have guessed.
