Chapter 1: jetko week 2025, day 5: partners in crime/joining the Freedom Fighters

Chapter Text

A colored pencil drawing of Jet and Zuko riding on a maroon motorcycle in the desert; Jet rides in front, smiling while bent low over the handlebars, wearing a vintage helmet, a red vest with geometric patterns stitched on, and a matching eyemask and boots in red, navy blue, and black. Behind him sits Zuko, his expression intense, aiming a red raygun with his left hand at something off screen and firing a neon laser from it; he wears a brown and gold leather vest and ripped jeans with combat boots. His scar extends down his left arm, and his left eye has been replaced with a mechanical one that glows yellow. His right eye is a natural shade of brown. There are cacti in the background, and there are motion blur lines over everything to indicate the motorcycle is going fast.

Jet's Killjoy name is JettSett, leader/" babysitter" of the Double-F crew. Zuko's name is Survivor Blue, a recent escapee from Battery City following his refusal to join the Exterminator program.

Chapter Text

A colored pencil drawing of Jet, Zuko and Mai. Jet is on the right, winking and smiling with a toothpick in his mouth. His outfit is red and blue with black designs; the designs on the mask mimic his eyebrows and eyelashes, those on his vest mimic his swords. He has an undercut, dyed red at the ends, and has dual guns in holsters. Zuko and Mai stand to his left, their arms around each other; Zuko's running a hand through his hair as he smiles at Jet, and Mai is smiling at both of them. Zuko's leather vest, pants and boots are similar to his Book 3 outfit. The Blue Spirit mask is on his belt next to one of his dual guns. His scar is extended all the way down his left arm. Mai wears an open red jumpsuit and a purple crop top underneath. Her mask is purple with black tear track designs. Both she and Zuko have black and red hair.

Notes from Tumblr:

Here we have the other half of Honor Roll. Zuko = Blue Spirit, Mai = Flatline

And we have the leader of The Double-F. Jet = JetSet, since his name is already half a killjoy name and I'm not one to look a gift horse in the mouth. I imagine he has a one-sided rivalry that nobody else really cares about with Jet Star over "stealing" his name.

A colored pencil drawing of Azula and Ty Lee. Azula stands with one foot propped up on a dead Draculoid; she holds a yellow Taser, smirking. She wears a black and red jacket and boots, and has two holsters on her hips, one with another Taser. Her mask is red and blue, her hair cut in a choppy bob. Ty Lee stands slightly behind her, looking at her admiringly, her arms crossed. She's dressed in all pink boots, cropped jacket, mask, fingerless gloves and skirt. Her hair is French braided on one side, with streaks of pink.

Ty Lee and Azula are in the Honor Roll crew, made up of four former Exterminator trainees who recently defected from Battery City. Azula = Kill-o-Voltage, Ty Lee = Circus Freak.

#get someone who'll look at you the way ty lee looks at azula and her taser

Chapter 3: Boozy Backseaters + PunDefeated

Chapter Text

A colored pencil drawing of Jin and Yue; Jin stands in front, holding a ray gun pointed at the ground. She wears a green mask covering her eyes, a green jacket splattered with red, a brown cropped shirt and brown pants. Her hair is blowing in the wind; the ends are dyed green. Yue stands slightly behind her, holding a ray gun and a knife. Her jacket, mask, shirt and pants are blue, and her belt has her canon necklace design as the buckle.

Notes from Tumblr:

Yue and Jin are part of a crew called the Boozy Backseaters - their names are all related to alcoholic drinks. Jin = Red Dawn Perignon, Yue = Neon Moonshine.

A colored pencil drawing of Katara and Sokka. Katara stands with her hands on her hips, smiling. She's wearing all blue eyemask with jewels, jacket with a white fur collar, pants and boots. She has a ray gun on her hip, and her hair is dyed cerulean. Sokka stands beside her, looking unimpressed. He holds a motorcycle helmet decorated with his wolf war paint design. He wears a denim jacket, blue cropped shirt and pants, and brown boots with a crescent moon. The tips of his wolftail are dyed dark blue and he has eyeliner and a hoop earring. Both have whale-fluke designs on the left sleeve of their jackets, and wear their canon necklaces.

Sokka and Katara are in PunDefeated, a crew founded and named by Sokka. Katara = VigilantiFreez, Sokka = Sonic Boomerang.

Chapter Text

A collection of colored pencil drawings of ATLA characters as Killjoys; clockwise from the top left, Ty Lee in pink jacket and skirt holding her mask and doing finger guns; Jet in red and black with a red undercut hairstyle, holding a gun and gesturing for someone to follow; Smellerbee, crouched with a gun ready, wearing a mask with her signature stripes and an outfit similar to her canon one; Suki wearing teal green with a motorcycle helmet painted like her Kyoshi Warrior paint; Aang shrugging with a blue mohawk hairstyle, yellow tank with a sun wearing sunglasses, and cargo shorts; Sokka sitting in a blue outfit with a motorcycle helmet painted like his Water Tribe wolf war paint; Yue with hair in a bun wearing a jacket with a fur collar, boots with the Northern Water Tribe insignia; Zuko in a vest, pants and boots matching his Book 3 outfit, holding the Blue Spirit mask with his arm around Mai; Mai in an open red jumpsuit with purple crop top, hands in her pockets and smiling at Zuko, her mask purple with tear track designs; Toph grinning with a gun held ready, wearing paint-splattered overalls, green Croc-style shoes, and a blindfold, with scraped knees.

Notes from tumblr:

my OG ATLA Killjoys designs, most of which I stand by (except Yue, girl I'm sorry I made you look like Star Wars)

Another drawing; Katara and Jet in Killjoy outfits. Jet's is slightly different than the previous picture, with a red vest with stripes instead of geometric designs, and a slightly different mask and boots. He's smiling at Katara with his arm around her. Katara wears a light blue jacket and a blue jeweled mask, her braided hair partially dyed blue. She smiles slightly, a hand resting on her ray gun.

My first design of Katara (which hasn't changed) along with an experimental design for Jet that I just. Didn't like

Another drawing, now of Ty Lee and Azula. Ty Lee wears a different pink jacket and mask, and a tie-dye skirt; she stands sideways to the viewer, smiling and holding up a gun; Azula stands to her right, holding a mask in her hands with a frown. Her hair is choppy and partially dyed blue, and she wears an outfit with a similar color scheme to her canon armor.

my original conception for Azula's design (which I've modified very little) and an experimental style for Ty Lee. 

More names: Smellerbee = still Smellerbee; Suki = Fantom; Aang = undecided, leaning towards Bridge Blitz; Toph = undecided, leaning towards Earthworm 

Notes:

I've since settled on BLI/nd Bandit (shortened to B-B) as a name for Toph.
