Description I'm gonna make a change, for once in my life.
It's gonna feel real good, gonna make a difference, gonna make it right....
I'm starting with the Man in the Mirror.
I'm asking him to change his ways.
And no message could have been any clearer,
'if you wanna make the world a better place
take a look at yourself and make a change.'
~Michael Jackson

Zutara Week, Day 2: Change.

It's a bit odd, I know, and I don't even know if it needs explanation or not. Its basically a mirror of Erised kind of thing, in that he wants make things right with the people that he's wronged or disappointed, who he sees in the mirror (don't ask why Iroh isn't there. I honestly forgot about him until this very minute), and in the mirror he, they, and the world are all better and happier and in order to change the world and achieve his vision he has to change himself which he does. So...yeah.

If that was weird or made no sense...blame Michael Jackson, who I was listening to on repeat when I came up with and drew this at 4am.

And now that that's done and finally up, time to bring on the PAIN!

Edit: If anyone doesn't recognize the kid in the mirror, it's Lee, from "Zuko Alone."

I personally hate that song, i had to do a show with it in it. After listening to it for two hours straight everyday for two months, I wanted to kill myself, lol. But this puts a whole new spin on it, it makes me want to hear that song again.

Oh, thanks so much! I'm so glad you like it. It took so long to come up with anything, and then all of a sudden I thought of MJ and it all came to me and made perfect sense. I just didn't know if it would make sense to anybody else.
