Katara would give an engagement necklace and Aang would write something for Katara in the sky. Kataang has lots of gender reversals (like Katara being the night in shining armor XD) so it would be nice to see that continued and Aang has already sky wrote something for Katara (see: School Time Shipping) and it was adorable. @zenjamin: When I first saw "that" scene, I nearly screamed. (hope that wasn't a spoiler, Paraiba, Amira, Blind Bandit, etc.) Unfortunately, even if it was pretty much everybody who watches the show, even those like me who didn't want to see the spoilers, know exactly what scene you're talking about. I'm just ready to actually watch that episode. Anyway, I was snooping around the "Worst episode" thread, and I noticed a few of people were saying Nightmares and Daydreams. I wouldn't know why, but is that OK for them to be referring to reasons they don't like an episode that hasn't aired yet?

I'm not completely clear on the specific rules of spoilers yet...

Does reading "The Tale of Aang" from the Earth Kingdom Chronicles series in a subway count? On the day I got the book, I was reading it on the ride home and I couldn't help but squee and giggle whenever Aang mentioned Katara. This lady looked at me in the weirdest way, methinks she got the impression that I was insane or something. avatar Abby: Maybe you should remove it to be on the safe side. D: IMO, it seemed pretty subtle so you wouldn't really have anything to worry about, but you may never know. Just my 2 cents.

Although The mods and admins decide when a person has crossed the line. I was just ranting about those guys in the "Worst Episode" thread.

hey guys, ive got a challenge for all of you. today, in biological anthropology class, i was at the back of the class, and i was slacking more then usual. i take notes on my laptop. i decided to watch the biggest kataang moment i have seen with the sound off... while moving my arms to look like i was typing. i tried to stay stone faced, but i couldnt help but break out in to a big'ol grin. so ya... try it, watch "the kataang moment" in public and try to not show emotion. Which Kataang moment are you talking about? The Kataang dance? Anything in "The Cave of Two Lovers"? "That" scene from "Nightmares and Daydreams"? (Nine times out of ten says it's that one.)

Well ... I regret the spoilers for future episodes, all the scenes and surprises can be ruined if you see "certain scenes" as spoilers ... is not fun. I already saw the episodes that are going to go on the air soon, and I enjoyed that not much read any spoiler, nor saw any scenes ...¡¡ I recommend to all the same!

dont be so sure I know what you're talking about. Wink, wink, nudge, nudge, say n'more, say n'more. ;D It's so hard to watch that without feeling quite exhilarated. I speak from experience. Seriously, even just thinking about it brings a smile to my face. Gah, now I really wanna read The Tale of Aang. I almost got it from a book order my little brother got...but he was sick the day it was due, so I missed out...

Here's something I posted at Kataang Forever. It has spoilers from the podcasts, but it's nothing secret.
I've been thinking about some of the things talked about in the recent Dongbufeng podcasts. Now, it's hard to tell whether they're talking spoilers or just speculation, but here are the joy bits I've tried to summarize from those podcasts:
Spoilers removed.
Thinking about the podcasts, the only theory that makes sense to me is that Aang gives up his love for Katara for Katara. (which many Kataang fans said he did during The Crossroads of Destiny) This may or may not involve Zutara as a catalyst, as in Aang believing Katara might be somehow happier with Zuko, though personally, I think Mike and Bryan would first be concerned about giving Zuko and Aang some sort of relationship. Anyway, at that point, I think Katara will decide what exactly Aang means to her, and start actively trying to get him back for herself and support him with her own heroic actions. Instead of Aang simply winning Katara's heart, Katara herself becomes an active participant in their potential union, fighting strongly for Aang's sake. In this manner, their mutual love becomes incredibly powerful.
It's sort of a version of that old adage: "If you love them, you'll let them go. If your love is true, they will return to you." This is the theory I'm working with. Thoughts?

Er, let's not forget two things.
1) He was basing that off SPECULATION. From spoilers he has, but its sitll just speculation. 2) It's already been confirmed 3 times that Zutara isn't going to happen. We really don't have to worry about that.

This is the theory I'm working with. Thoughts? I think a theory like this sounds very likely, and it is also one that I would like to see come to light as well. If you think about it, many of the people who are anti-kataang (not limited to just zutara supporters) feel that there is not enough conflit in their relationship, thus making kataang "boring". After reading and rereading many of these threads, I've noticed that the only thing holding many people back from supporting kataang is that element of drama between the two of them; while IMO that true love does not need drama to be sucessful, it still seems like a big thing that many want to see. The main reason that this theory sounds very possible is the fact that Anng is most likely going to have to revisit the "letting go of Katara" issue sometime again in this season; It just seems like did not close the whole book on that issue during the Sason 2 finalie. As the rest of the season progresses, I think we will see something very similar (if not nearly identical) to this theory. When and if these events come to light, I belive that that will be the moment that the whole "Kataang is just a happy, laughing, candy-in-the-sky, drinking coffee at Central Perk(Friends refernce, had to do it ;D) relationship" thing will finally dissapear. What many non-Kataang supporters dont see is that Kataang is not just an average "hero gets the girl" kind of love, it's the kind of love that can weather any type of conflit of situation good or bad and does not change just because the people or suituations change, it's unconditional love that exists between the two of them. This type of love is so rare, in the real and fantasy worlds, it's truly epic wherever it take place. THis type of epic love is what exisits between Katara and Aang, and I think that it will become only more evident as the season progresses much like in this theory above. I don't know about you, but it hardly sound "boring" to me.
