Yeah, high. Amira seems to be likinging Bluetara (Zutara always has it's way to win everybody over^^). But after I was thinking about it, I have to say myself, that it even would make sense to open up Zutara possiblities through the mystery of the Blue Spirits identity. Katara seems to have a thing for tall, dark and heroic and Zuko wouldn't have that much of a problem to save even one of his "old" enemies ("Zuko alone"), although not without hesitating. What do you think?

I'm just not into the Zutara thing - in whatever guise. Although one of my drabbles has hints of it, it's just because I like to write Sad!Aang.

Well I can live with that. I am a Taang supporter, too, so I don't believe that Zutara would make him unhappy. As a matter of fact I think that this whole Kataang think, with Katara constantly supporting him and Aang constantly "depending" on her would make both of them, Aang and Katara, unhappy.

I really don't like Taang as a pairing - unlike Zutara where I just don't understand the appeal. To me a lot of the time Taang just seems an excuse to pair Aang off with someone and is not handled well. And you're only looking at the current relationship between Katara and Aang - don't forget that boys grow up and Aang will not be 12 forever. He is already becoming a much stronger person and will be even more so by the time he is ready to move on to a serious relationship. In some ways he is even more mature than Zuko is currently.

Hmm, I don't judge a shipp, because of bad experiences I've got with fans, but I can understand to somehow. I really like Tophs and Aang interaction in "the Blind Bandit", especially the dinning scene has won me over.^^ I guess he won't stay 12 forever, but I'm pretty sure he won't be much older during the shows finale. The whole relationship is way too onesided in my opinion. Aang has constant problems of dealing with obstacles he faces by being the Avatar, because of his evasive nature/behavior, instead of facing them immediately and directly he draws backup and confidance from Kataras support, although it's really something he will have to do on his own eventually. The Avatar state is on such obstacle. He fears that he won't be able to control it and hurt somebody dear to him, so he grows depended on Katara to help him calm down and get out of the Avatar state instead of trying to learn to deal and maybe even control it. Toph showed him how to face things and he starts to be more direct ever since the start of his training with her in "Bitter Work". And where are Kataras problems? We only see her talking openly to somebody else about the loss of her mother durig "Jet" and "Imprisoned" and maybe it's her way to be evasive by concentrating on Aangs and not on her own feelings. But these are only opinions and you are free to disagree.

Just because someone helps your growth doesn't mean you should become romantically involved with them. If that was the case, then Zuko would be with Song instead of Katara. Besides, many people (and things) influence growth in a person. The thing that bothers me most about your summary there is the fact that it's assumed that it must all be worked out by the time they take on the fire lord. Real relationships don't need to happen that quickly. Katara won't be of marrying age for two years, so why the rush to pair her with Zuko?
I also find the Avatar State to be a fascinating subject for study - far more than Zuko'a angsting about how he can't go home. I can see it taken in many ways - for example, he can learn to control it, in which case he will be a very powerful bender indeed. He may also transcend his need for it by increasing his skills to such a level where it's not necessary. On the other hand, he may be consumed by it - the potential for darkness in Aang is the most fascinating idea of all. How much more moving is it for an innocent to be reduced to the state where they are not innocent any longer? What would it take to draw him away from that dark fate? What would it mean for the world?
