<3 Brady & Wan <3


Preface

I am a part of the ficto/yume/self-ship/waifuist communities! Beyond the typical crushing on a favourite character thing, I am actively living my life with this character as a part of it. For me, I am on the more serious side rather than hobbyist and do not use an OC/SI to represent myself in this relationship. I joined my first community for this in the mid 2010's, discovering that there were more people like me out there. The memories and friends I have made along the way will always make me smile.


About

To start this off, I guess I've always been like this for fictional characters ever since I was young. With Wan though, it was like that but on rocket fuel. The first time I saw him was just naturally, as I got into The Legend of Korra after being a fan of Avatar: The Last Airbender as a kid. I was at home and sick when I was 16 and binge watching the whole series in order sounded like a great idea. Evidently this had far reaching consequences.

It really didn't take long for me to be drawn to Wan, not even romantically at first. When he sat down to share his stolen food with the animals, he really stood out to me as just such a wonderfully kind person. Wan's actions just kept clicking in my brain like nothing I've ever felt before. The way he stood up for other people, didn't accept things the way that they were, wasn't a violent person... it was all just the complete antithesis to what I'd experienced in life.

"Jaya, it's time to stop being so afraid of the Chous and show them we have the power to change things."

Dream Journal

Where I log my dreams of Wan if I remember to do so. My favourites ones are marked.


May 5th 2026

Dreamt that I was in a hipster shop that sold galaxy print clothes, snapback hats and custom Avatar merch. They were also going to host a play of an Avatar Wan themed fanfiction, which I took great offense to the content of.

I then stormed upstairs in anger, bursting backstage and kidnapping the guy who was playing Wan just before it was due to start. Somehow, I physically carried him fireman style through the streets, in his underwear since he hadn't got his costume on yet. At a secondary location, I plopped him down on a table and furiously told him that he GOT THE GOATEE WRONG. I went into an entire spiel about Wan's specific goatee lengths across the episodes. Naturally, the poor dude was scared out of his mind and his tiny bit of chin scruff/soul patch.

Afterwards, he was released and I went to the hospital. Clearly I was the one who needed medical attention and not him after his ordeal. He posted about his harrowing experience online, but everyone kept downvoting and insulting him and no one wanted to hear about it.

At the hospital, Steven Yeun visited me!? I was scared and panicking over the money that I thought I was going to have to pay him for this appearance that I would in no way be able to afford. I kept trying to steer the topic away from Wan as much as possible and did not want him to start doing his Wan voice at me. Also, I didn't want to be linked to my crimes.

April 16th 2026

Dreamt that I went to a heated pool and was forced to use the separate "Scottish Pool".

When I got in, my nasty childhood friend stole my phone and impersonated me on the yume Discords and got me banned. I got a member of staff to sing at her as punishment whilst packing up to go home.

Wan was also there, but wasn't in the pool (I guess he didn't qualify? But I don't think it would normally stop him). He just stood on the sides and started powerscaling himself against his future reincarnations. Wan seemed really intense about this and kept asking if he was stronger than certain other Avatars. He got stuck on Kyoshi.

April 11th 2026

Dreamt that Wan was canonically revealed to not actually be Wan, but the Batman guy. It led to vast arguments on Discord with users who actually liked Batman and I had to try to explain that I don't think he's Bruce Wayne and don't want their man or believe in Batwan.

March 8th 2026

Dreamt that they were selling Beginnings themed Lego sets for 400 pounds exclusive to eBay including the Tree of Time playset and tiny Wan.

It had the Lego spirits too, but Raava was a white littlest pet shop dog that still had the blue markings and Vaatu was just a giant badly designed guy in orange robes.

They also started to sell blind box plushies with "15 stinky secrets to find" and I was really stressed about having to spend all of my money to uncover them all on Wan gambling.

November 27th 2025

Dreamt that I was in a store and Wan was working there, minus his goatee (did his boss make him shave it?)

Anyways, he was showing me this kitchen appliance. It was a vertical machine with a rotisserie function for potatoes. It was slicing them and pumping them in layers/coating them with chocolate. It didn't look very appetising. The chocolate had bits in it too.

As a bonus, the baked potato machine had a ravioli making compartment that was very small at the bottom.

Wan was really trying to sell this thing off to me, but I stopped listening and just kept staring at him for a large amount of time. I didn't see the point of the ravioli maker. Eventually Wan realised I wasn't actually interested in this thing and got offended/sad and walked off.

August 31st 2025

A bizarre situation of feeling like I was in two different dreams: one where I was crawling underneath the floor boards of my old school (looking for a sausage sandwich and scaring people) and another side from Wan's perspective.

On the Wan side of things, it was of being on the lion turtle that he was from. It was outside the city and underneath the trees at night, right on the lion turtle's back. It was dark but kind of illuminated by the moonlight above through the canopy. If you looked into the distance, you could see this sort of outcrop of rock above which stuck out with a ledge at the end.

August ??? 2025

Dreamt that I was back in my hometown, but I lived in a flat that was a complete hoarder's nest. It was filled with really low quality merchandise, particularly Appa merchandise. That bison was made into practically everything you could imagine and I had duplicates of it all.

Wan was also in my hometown, but he had a new punk rock look. He had this uneven Mohawk that was shorter in the middle, leather clothes etc. He was also really sad and depressed, but he still helped me clear out all of the Appa stuff and throw it away. Then I gave him a little kiss on the cheek which made him smile.

August 6th 2025

Dreamt I saw a tiny Wan on a poster in a shop and climbed a shelf to try and get a picture of it and an employee didn't tell me off, but got some guy to stand in front of a separate golden framed picture of Wan and try and do stupid poses. Pretty sure it was stolen fanart.

I think there was a flood wherever this was and I ordered airpods for some reason but they were stored inside a brick phone. It wasn't very good at trying to take Wan pictures.

There was also a Nickelodeon leak that revealed bizarre new Avatar lore and an entirely separate first Avatar origin story with a different character? They had just put Wan into a farming sim game instead.

August 5th 2025

Dreamt that Wan's surname was officially revealed to be "Dunlop" and they made his old man version look like the exact American Dad show art style (I have never watched this show my life).

??? Early 2025

Wan existed as a tiny naked green fairy (in a really low animation quality) with pink hair and was really angry all the time. He started harassing people by jumping on their heads. Jumping on heads seemed to improve his condition, and the more he did it the more he became normal Wan again.

16th November 2024

Dreamt that I was on a train and dropped the testosterone I had all over the floor and the train departed when I tried to pick it up. Then I became Avatar Wan I think? And he found a big bag of testosterone on the train that allowed him to no clip and access console commands.

He also made the children aboard lose their collision and made them fly off the train with him. But it turned out to be a good thing because several comical looking red clown cars charged at the train and blew up on it.

Then he reenabled their collision and the responders were trying to identify all the victims. They had a photo of Wan and were like "aw yeah this guy's been dead for 10,000 years he's a goner."

Then Wan looked at the picture, smirked and said "That's god's gorgeous boy!" and sprinted off into the woods whilst they watched in shock. Then I woke up with heartburn.


How many Wan pictures do I have?

My PC weeps. This used to genuinely make my computer's file manager no longer work until restart on my previous harddrive.



Miscellaneous

Random things that have been sent to me or have coincidental symbolism in some way. Plus stuff I didn't know where else to dump.
