The Story of how an ATLA nerd became one of the world's biggest ZUTARA shippers...

Soooo, I was chatting with one of my fanfic.net buddies, squishpie AKA alicia.. (my writer... LOL :D) and she asked me how I became a zutara shipper... I promptly replied with a novel... HA see I really am a writer!!

ANYWAY, I quickly realized that it actually is a good story, and an interesting question. So I am posting MY story here, and I want you to tell me yours in the comments!! :) enjoy

     

            "I watched the whole show in like three weeks, because Sera had changed her profile pic on FB to a pic of Mai, and she made me change it to a pic of Azula (I swear, if I'd had the sucky family and expectations zula did I'd be megalomaniacal too... we are extremely similar... anyway) so I was like 'wait, I'm not just changing my pic to something I have no idea about.. plus this show looks cool!' So I watched the first season on netflix and then borrowed the next two from ser.

ANYWAY during the show, especially season one, I was REALLY kataang. I mean Cave of two Lovers, with the hippies/nomads, was TOTALLY my fave epi, because singing hippies + sokka being his awesome hysterical self + at the time, Kataang = perfect  (ok, *almost* still is, except for kataang :( ;D). Then Sera (who is super super zutara, almost as much as me) started watching them with me and she was kinda telling me about Zutara, THEN I started reading FF and I was like OMG... how could I not see it?? (Though, in my defense, season two and three, AKA good Zuko is much more perfect for Katara... season one zuko isn't quite as perfect..) Then I watched Crossroads of Destiny and nearly jumped off a cliff with annoyance, luckily Seraphimala was there (misery loves company) :D and THEN when I got to the finale (actually the whole last disc) I was overwhelmed with the Zutaraness... I mean seriously? That whole freaking disc is COMPLETELY zutara, then BAM they kill you at the end! I called sera and screamed at her (feel kinda bad for that now... she was probably deaf for a while) Tried to find Brian and Mike's adresses so I could go murder them, went to bed and woke up the next morning feeling almost better.

Then the other day I watched the last disc again, to research for my story, and went through all the same emotions. I actually turned it off at the end... when Aang walked out to the balcony I hit the power button... LOL!!! My sis was like 'That was the end?" and I was like, "um... yes!" hah!

yep, kataang pretty much makes me sick now... its so sad!! haha! I see a fic and I read the summary and go 'hey, that looks ok!' then I see 'kataang' and go... no, just no... :)"
