The Jasmine Dragon Tea Hour

Welcome back to the Jasmine Dragon Tea Hour.

This May, we’re back with a thrilling menu of delicious tea, treats, and entertainment. Our special blend is called When We Were Young and focuses on youth, potential, and young love.

We’ll cover some recent Avatar news, admire art by Minuiko and chiptrilino, and discuss the completion of our first serial.

Tonight, under the beautiful crescent moon, we will conclude our dramatic reading of Tempest in a Teacup by AkaVertigo. Our long running, much beloved serial will finally come to an end and no, we’re not crying--you’re crying!

So brew yourself a good cup of tea, hold your emotional-support lemur close, and settle in for the final reading of the night. In this segment, Zuko makes a life-changing discovery and as one tale ends, another begins.

Join us tonight for the fifth installment of Tempest in a Teacup by AkaVertigo. In this installment if our saga, our beloved characters celebrate their birthdays, Iroh comes to a starting realization, and from yonder a tempest rolls in.

Are you ready for book 2?

This month’s theme is Divergent Paths, which focuses on season 1 and 2 divergent stories. We take a particular interest in Bluetara stories (fics involving the Blue Spirit and Painted Lady) and highlight some great art.

We’ll be covering Rumor Has It by fictionissocialinquiry for our fic pic this month. Our pic picks include art by Astrocitos and Cabbage-foam.

We’ll also be spending quite a bit of time on recent Avatar News, so buckle up and get ready for Book 2!

A podfic tribute to (don't) follow me down by Eleventy7.

The original summary reads: 

Katara is the dread queen of the underworld, ruler of the dead, destined to reign her cold kingdom alone. Until a sun god catches her eye.
