easilydistracted: Awwh, you didn't have to give me karma. I was just sharing the fluff. Thaaank you! But yes, Aang's pov during the Cave of Two Lovers is sooo sweet and cute. While I was reading it on the subway ride back home, I kept squeeing and giggling. This lady looked at me like I was crazy, but she looked kind of surprised that I liked the show. and shipped Kataang. Maybe she was a Zutara fan?
@amira: Definately pick it up! It's cheap and wooorth it. I wonder if there'll be a Katara version of these books. I'd really love that, just to see her take on The Cave of Two Lovers.
@bb: Don't resist the cuteness! It compels you to buy the book and squee in Kataang delight!
@pink Sis: That sucks! Maybe you should try ordering them online? Like amazon.com or something? But yeah, they are great stories. ^^ As for contributions, I'll see what I can do.
Okay. Here's two more from the book that I think you guys will really like:
From "The Desert":
But Katara, fighting the wind with each step, slowly made her way toward me. She just took hold of my body and hugged me. She didn't say a word. Gradually my anger subsided and I saw the winds die down. Then I felt myself returning to earth, to my body. Katara did something for me that words could not do. The simple act of hugging me told me that she was there for me completely, without judgement, without lectures, without fear. It struck a chord deep inside me. I felt my heart open up to her...
Then the wind stopped. But the pain I'd been keeping at bay rushed in with the force of a hurricane. I closed my eyes and gave myself over to Katara's arms, and cried harder than I had ever cried in my life
From "The Serpent's Pass"
I guess this is what living is all about: loving and caring for your family. Sometimes I forget that I have a family now too -- Katara, Sokka, Momo and Appa. Even Toph. Just because Appa is missing, that doesn't mean I should stop caring about everyone else I love in my life. In fact, losing Appa has actually made me realize that I should show them how much I care about them, because we never know what might happen. It's okay for me to miss Appa. It's okay for me to feel sad, and to lean on Katara for help. That's what family is for, right? "I've been going through a really hard time lately," I told the family. "But you've made me hopeful again".
Katara took my hand and smiled sweetly. My heart is beating so fast I can hardly breathe! "I thought I was trying to be strong, Katara. But I was really just running away from my feelings. Seeing this family together, so full of happiness and love, reminded me of how I feel about Appa."
Come on Aang, you can do it...
"And how I feel about you." That's what I should have said in the Cave of Two Lovers...Oh well, I hope I've at lest redeemed myself from that! Katara burst into tears. I guess I really do have a family. A pretty good one, too, if you ask me!
Sooo cute. <3
