Date: 2024-01-28 04:04 pm (UTC)Gyatso is fiercely attached to Aang, is knowledgeable about the greater world even in this fic, AND openly held a minority position among the temple elders. I don't know about you, but if I thought brain-washing was a reasonable response to 'disrupting harmony' I'd be looking for an excuse to nail the non-conformist, assuming I didn't straight-out declare non-conformity grounds for brain-washing!
And yet this fic gives no reason to believe that Gyatso ever had to worry about getting his mind tampered with. For that matter, I don't think we get any hint that men had their minds tampered with which... isn't how that works. The ability to make other people Do The Right Thing is no respecter of sex.
