Another interesting point in Jake Sully x Tsu'tey fanfiction is the potential for adventure stories. They are both brave and capable warriors. Fanfiction could take them on new quests or challenges that weren't shown in the original movie. Maybe they have to face a new threat to Pandora together, and through this shared experience, their bond becomes even stronger.
First, consider Jake's motivation. In the beginning, it's mainly about getting a new chance at life through the avatar program. As the story progresses, his motivation should shift towards protecting Pandora and the Na'vi. His character arc should also include his relationships. For example, his relationship with Neytiri can be a big part of his growth. He goes from being an outsider she is wary of to her partner and a respected member of the Na'vi. Also, his interactions with the other Na'vi clans can shape his arc, as he learns to be diplomatic and inclusive.
The theme of redemption can also be found. For example, if in the fanfiction Tsu'tey has some misgivings about Jake at first, he may later find a way to redeem himself in Jake's eyes and vice versa. This adds depth to their relationship and the overall story.
There might be a fanfic that focuses on Jake Sully's early days in his avatar body. It could explore how he was adjusting to his new form, his interactions with the Na'vi during that time, and his first impressions of Pandora's unique environment.
A popular one is 'Jake's Redemption'. This fanfiction focuses on Jake making up for some of his past mistakes. It has a lot of action and emotional moments as he tries to right his wrongs and prove himself to the Na'vi once again.
One great fanfiction could be about a female character who meets Jake Sully during his journey in Pandora. In this fanfic, she might be a healer in the Na'vi tribe and their relationship could start as she helps him understand the ways of the tribe better. They could share cultural exchanges and gradually develop a deep bond.
Another theme is Jake's growth and development from a female - centered view. Writers often focus on how he changes and adapts in different situations that are important to female characters in the story. For example, in some fanfictions, his relationship with female Na'vi and how he learns from their culture and values. It gives a different dimension to his character compared to the original movie where the focus was more general. Also, themes of heroism from a female - perceived angle can be found. How female characters view Jake as a hero or the challenges he faces in being seen as one in their eyes.
For a realistic relationship development, it should start with mutual respect. Even if they are initially on different sides, they need to recognize each other's strengths. For example, the reader might admire Jake's survival skills in the desert. Then, through shared experiences like facing a common enemy or surviving a sandstorm together, their bond can grow. Communication is also key. They need to be able to talk to each other, understand each other's motives and fears.
It could be about her growing up on Pandora and learning the ways of the Na'vi. Maybe she has a special connection with the nature there that no one else has.
