the people aang meets think they're being appreciative of his culture, but aang explains that it's wrong because airbenders tattoos are sacred and they aren't a costume.
aang understandly gets offended by this. he tries to explain that the tattoos are something you have to earn when you master airbending, not just something you can paint on your forehead.
-historically accurate as possible. aang brings up the arrows they have painted on their forehead, saying they look exactly like airbender tattoos. she says they aren't painted on, but rather they're actual tattoos.
