Okay, so. 

Playing in the Republic city tour thing on Nick.com and learning all sort of tidbits, along with stuff I already knew. 

And suddenly I start thinking about the fact that Aang died pretty young in part because he used up his long Avatar life in the iceberg (;;_;;). And that Kyoshi, the longest lived Avatar, lived to be 230. But generally the Avatar is expected to live a long time unless something kills them. 

So. 

If this happens with Korra. 

Like, if she lives to be like 150.

That would take her to like, the future. 

Relative to us.

Because obviously this is a different world with an alternate history.

But it clearly sort of parallels our own.

And the first series was like the mid-1800s. 

And now this series is like the 1910s-1920s.

Which means that 150 years in the future would be

like the 2070s. 

Which is the future. 

So that last one was mostly fantasy with some steampunk elements.

This one is a more full blown steampunk with deeply incorporated fantasy laws.

And like.

The next Avatar.

Could be a full blown fantasy SciFi with all the same Asian culture and stuff just brought into the future. 

And we’d get these three really different shows.

All in the same universe.

All with the same excellent writing and characterizations and such.

I am in favor of this.
