Zuko only seemed Aang-perky to me when I first watched it. Then I realized he was simply happy in a Zuko way (like in the flashback of the Storm and when he believed Azula in 201). I don't think it'll be permament, 'cause he sure didn't look perky in the previews. I saw one Kataangko oekaki pic today, but I'll have to find it again. EDIT: I didn't find the one I saw, but here's a Kataangkish pic. Zuko doesn't look to happy about being hugged by Katara, but I think Aang feels snubbed and it has all three of them, so... *shrugs* Is it because I'm bald?W00t! I found it! Katara's Tough DecisionAnd... Zuko's not feeling the lurv Atla: Phantom of the Opera

Aww...Aang looks so cute/sad in that bald one! Don't worry, little guy, I hear there are girls out there who like bald guys. And Zuko's...perkiness...is still disturbing. I think it even creeped me out back when Azula lied to him and he was so...smiley...I couldn't help but cringe. And the fact that she was lying to him made it even more weird... And it increasingly seems I'm not going to be able to see the finale! I was told that there's a storm warning from 1 PM-1AM today! Nuuuuuuuuu!!! Please let it skip the 8 o' clock hour, please let it skip the 8 o'clock hour... (I really hope my friend is able to record it... )

You do know that in Asian cultures monks were not forbidden from having relationships or made to take a vow of chastity?

And Zuko's...perkiness...is still disturbing. I think it even creeped me out back when Azula lied to him and he was so...smiley...I I think so too. I saw the 2 mins. and thought, Zuko... NOT FROWNING?? Not that I don't think he deserves a little peace. It just seems abnormal. But it all gets ruined, yay! I'm so sadistic... Why is it fun to be mean to Zuko? Everyone(i think) likes to bother him. But it's cool when he's happy, too. Like when the pirate's boat went over a waterfall. But then his boat got stolen by the same pirates... Zuko: HA HA HA HA HA!.... Hey, that's MY boat! Aw heck I just like Zuko all around. (his CHARACTER, people, not his cartoon bod)

Hmm...Zuko's an idiot.
Okay, now that I've said that...did there seem to be a hint of Kataangko in the season finale when Zuko and Aang were glaring at each other?

Yes and no. Depends on how you look at it. Zuko was glaring at Aang because Aang was Aang; Aang was glaring at Zuko because Zuko was Zuko (but it did look very jealous). But that could also have been because he caught that Katara's thumb had been on Zuko's lips... Somehow I think Katara was starting to like him. Or that she could've fallen for him, but her feelings didn't have time to settle before he betrayed them. The music too, as she was looking back at him, seemed to hint that she did believe in him and feel something toward him that she hadn't felt before. And there was also her apparent rush to trust him, then her offer to heal his scar with the special water, and the lengthy moment with her hand on the lower part of his scar and her thumb on his lips. No moves toward doing anything with the water for a moment. It looked like she was just gazing into his face, then Aang broke through. Some of this I didn't catch until my second viewing, but my thoughts are: Katara was obviously forming a little crush... then it got squished underheel. She sure knows how to pick them . How else can those moments be explained? It seemed extremely OOC and unrealistic. After Jet, I could see wary trust, but that was not cautious trust. That was a freefall trust. Zuko didn't seem to feel the same though. He sympathized with her, but he didn't show any signs that he felt anything else toward her other than sympathy, then antagonism. But there's one problem with Kataangko now... Aang gave up Katara. So the only thing I can see happening is Zutara, no Katara romance at all, or some random guy coming along. Otherwise, it would've be an Aang <3 Katara <3 Zuko triangle.

Actually, we don't know if Aang totally gave Katara up since Azula interrupted his transitioning into the Avatar State. I don't think we'll know for sure until the next season when he's had time to say something.
And Katara was touching his mouth? Huh. Must have missed that. Good thing I recorded it...
And Zuko's emotions are generally very well hidden except around his uncle, so we can't be sure what he was thinking when she tried to help him...But considering what he did afterward, it's a pretty safe assumption that anything she may have felt was completely squashed...unless she occasionally thinks about it next season...
For my own benefit-230 posts! Woot!

I would find it extremely ironic if Machina's theory proved right and both Aang and Zuko die at the end. Then maybe Katara could hook up with the Earth King. Kingtara!

For my own benefit-230 posts! Woot! So Kataangko still has a chance? W00t! Aang was glowing, thus in the Avatar State (just not fighting yet), so he probably did give her up, since Pakku said he wouldn't be able to go into the Avatar State at all if he didn't open all seven chakras. So he died in the Avatar State. The water brought back the Avatar State (his tattoo glowed after he was brought back), though, so he's still the Avatar. Maybe he'll close that chakra, and give up the Avatar State? Yeah, she was touching his mouth. If it was just the corner of his mouth, I would've just brushed it off, but it wasn't. That disturbed me... Yeah, that's why I talked mostly about Katara. And of course there's the widened gap between Zuko and Katara, so we're not too sure how that'll turn out. Whatever she felt may come back later in season three (MUCH later) if he turns good and joins them before 310, but if not, I doubt Kataangko or even straight Zutara would happen). I'm curious as to the purpose of them playing the love theme between Zuko and Katara before his betrayal, though. It could've been just to show what would've been had he turned good, or it could've been foreshadowing. @growly: Kingtara would be cute! But only when she's older. And when he gets a tragic characterization .

@growly: Kingtara would be cute! But only when she's older. And when he gets a tragic characterization . I like the Earth King. According to Nick.com his name is Kuei and he became King at age 4. I bet he was practically raised by Long Feng and the Dai Li (or someone working for the Dai Li). He's going to have an eye opening experience traveling with the Gaang. I can imagine him falling for Katara though - after the only women he's known were the court ladies and concubines, a strong independant woman is likely to fascinate him. Of course, it would probably be entirely one-sided and she'd break his heart in the end. Poor King!

Don't get me wrong. I like the Earth King, too. Katara just has this thing for tragic guys. Namely, Aang, Jet, Haru, and Zuko.
King Kuei? That's a cute name ;D. King at age 4? No wonder he knew nothing about the war!
Yeah, it would be one way and he'd get his heart crushed. Poor King Kuei.

I'm rather tired of all the anti-earth king sentiment I saw on a particular thread in episode discussions. (Ironic that I'm expressing this through a sad fic about him... ah well) I'm also going to write something with him and Long Feng - not romance, just showing how Long Feng manipulated him all those years he was king.
