What gets me is how did the Zutarian pairing ever come about, like who started it, did it start in the seige to the north or something?
I have nothing against Zutarians, it's there opinion. Writers do slip things, who would ever think some random girl would teach Toph Earthbending when we all thought it was Bumi. Even though I love Kataang, and will always stick up for it, I have nothing against anyone's opinions.

Actually that's a cool question question Azula, when did Zutara start? Was it the Waterbending Scroll or Siege Of The North?

^ I don't know either, it just always wanted to know, and how it became so big! I though Seige To The North because of him holding her necklace around her.

Actually now that I think about it, it was The Water Bending scroll cause if you ever watched Kimchicrusader's deivant art flash video, it shows that after that episode aired there were a million threads popping up about Zuko and Katara and there undying love for each other...

You're not asking a question, risanf. And no one has snapped at you. You're just stating that time is running out. And fine, you're entitled to your own opinions, but you've obviously not heard that the Zutarians are aware of certain interferences. But I did ask a question: what will the effect of Zutara be so late in the game. Though there is an anti-zutara slant to my post, the question itself isn't loaded. The same is true for me, ironically: I was actually thinking stinkypinky was getting curt with me. (your tone towards me seems a tad condescernding as well, though I can how some curtness is understandable if you think I'm being a jerk.) But if I've jumped the gun here, I apoligize to stinkypinky; there's no tone of voice on the internet, so I have some trouble deciphering the intent of messages.

And I apologize too. Sometimes we should read our messages before posting to reduce confusion in tones.

In my opinion I don't think Zutara needs to happen now or never. I hope it will happen but it doesn't need 1 1/2 seasons for it to flurish. Remember the whole Katara/Jet thing happened in just one episode, and in that one episode she seemed to really like Jet and she'd never acted like that towards Aang whom she had been with since the show started. Nothing against Kataang, I'm just a Zutara fan.

My basic feelings on Zutara's...canonity?...is that if it's going to happen at all, the groundwork needs to be laid now. AangxKatara has been built for 1 1/2 seasons now. Sure, it hasn't been explicitly romantic, but their relationship is very deep and at this moment Aang is the most important person in Katara's life and Katara is the most important person in Aang's life.
ZukoxKatara is not going to happen like JetxKatara. JetxKatara was pure "ZOMG CUTEBOY!!" on Katara's part, and Jet's like/dislike of Katara is debatable. And besides, if either Zuko or Katara secretly thought the other was cute, we'd know. And they don't.
Also, because of the heavy emphasis on Katara and Aang's relationship, there would have to be a d*mn good reason for Zutara to happen. And at this point, I can't find one.
Zuko also needs to give up the hunt for the Avatar--which he has yet to do. This would be major character development for Zuko; it will NOT happen offscreen, and it hasn't happened yet. We also don't know when it will happen (or even if it will happen at all. For all we know, Zuko may go nutso-insane evil and kill everyone). Zuko may not give up the hunt for the Avatar until the end of season 2, or even later. We don't know. Just because he seems more focused on Azula at the moment does not mean he will not go after Aang again.

Sorry but I can't agree there , Katara may be very important to Aang but we don't know Katara's true feelings. I think Zutara does have a chance to happen (30 episodes). Theres still time, we haven't even started the 3rd season yet and who knows if there will be more.

I'm kind of thinking there is one too many threads analyzing/questioning/poking at Zutara these days.
This is opposite to the situation several weeks back when I felt there were one too many threads analyzing/questioning/poking at Kataang.
Anyway, my OT3 is Aang x Katara x Zuko - since Kataang is already canon (i.e. they care for each other very much, friendship, romantic, etc.) - if Zutara also becomes canon --- it will give me more incentive to write AxKxZ threesome fics. Besides, how else is Mike and Bryan going to get out of this shipping of a pickle they are in?

SD...well pointed out. It's a win-lose situation for Mike and Bryan either way. Someone's always going to be ticked off if some ship happens. Unless you do ZukoxKataraxAang. Then I'm happy.

Kataang episodes: Waterbending Scroll Fortuneteller The Cave of two lovers (theses are the ones, which can not be really speculated about and add real evidance to Kataang, not hugging not small quotes or kisses on a cheek (seriously I've been hugges and kissed on my cheek by my mother ). Most of them are one-sided as it comes mostly from Aang and there are only 3, but they are there, although Aang could lose his interest after waiting for so long as we don't know how deeply he is love) Jetara episodes: Jet (ONE episode BANG!!) I'm sorry, but Katara is pretty young and she was growing up for so long without a boy near her age for such a long time. It must have been very hard for her, and it shows in this episode. Jet dashing and daring character, his charisma and his good looks have won Katara almost in an instant. Kataangers may complain about "it's not only the looks" and "Kataang could grow into something" and they are right, but Katara had a big crush for, most probably the first time in her life, and if Jet wouldn't have been an Equus asinus, there would be no Kataang or Zutara to look forward to (Karma to Jet for being an idiot). Great looks (and I assume now, that the creators know that they did create a Bishōnen type of character with Zuko plus angst bonus) could help to get Zutara atleast started (crush or moments not a real romance) and in future episode it could unfold, if it has a future as a relationship or not. My point is, that Zutara may not need as much time to develop as you think.^^

I'm tired of being snapped at for doing the simplest thing. I see no reason why I can't ask just a question that could have many differing responses. Is patience for others so out of people's league. Chill, nobody's snapping.
