Maybe she hit him in the leg or some other non-vital part of his body, and he realized that the last thing he wanted to do on this earth was kiss Song?
I can dream!

Ooooo, interesting. Kowtow. Sounds kind of funny Unfortunately, you can't be Song, inuyatta. It's an admin rank (made specially for me, I might add ;D).

inuyatta: I love the expression and the emotion you get from that picture; one can only hope that the situation will realize itself in one form or another in the future (hopefully the season coming up ^^ In order to chase my Soko blues ( it does tend to get rather discouraging at having your ship ignored, or your fave character for that matter...^^; ) I wrote up a sweet, saccharine treat in honour of the Chinese Lunar New Year (which was yesterday) for the lovely couple. It's a modern AU ficlet, and yeah, once you read, I apologize if the characterizations fall short...especially Zuko's. It's terribly difficult to write him as a lovey-dovey teenager without being too cheesy, but I tried. ^^; I'll post it up later on ff.net.

I had already seen the artwork at your LJ Inuyatta, the lighting is great and I got the pose imediately, but that might be because of the large Asian population I live in... never heard it called Kowtow (Cow-toe?) though. I've actually been wanting to write Soko fics, but I blame 7_chakras for that. Asdfghjkl.

Aqua--You're fairly up to date on asian culture, so I was sure you'd get it. ^^ Thanks guys--and I rarely hear the term 'kowtow' over here, but luckily I remembered a character on TV saying it somewhere as I was typing that out last night.
If you can't do all out fics, you can always do drabbles. XD Can't wait to see them from you and Millefiore.
Btw, it seems Song is being undervalued in the weekly discussion again because she wasn't in the shipping short. Despite that most season 2 characters aren't in it aside from Ozai's angels, and they're probably there to even out the male to female ratio. XD

That, and I enjoy researching. >_>
Meh, if I find some time tonite or within this week (unlikely) I'll try to type up some stuff.
I read through the thread (there's nothing I want to add really; Zuko isn't ready for a relationship simple as that, but he could have one eventually) but someone did write saying that M+B go for shock value right? If so many people aren't expecting her back, then clearly her reappearance will be surprising. Even though when you think about it, Zuko's betrayal isn't that suprising.

inuyatta: I'm sorry; I really tried to get Song in there [the weekly discussion] but you know the fans; most either a) forgot about her or b) dismissed her and the topic itself can only do so much. I think I'm going to make a whole separate topic about Song for one of the weekly discussions possibly; trying to coax out things that most shippers ignore. We'll see though; I've been trying to write weekly discussion topics that really delve into things most people don't talk about. ^^

O,o I wrote something!! YAY!! Totally drabbled thanks to Inu. Based on your beautiful fanart! Gaahhhh. I didn't do it justice. My writing blows. XD
Soft rosy lips gasped when she found him standing outside of her door one dusky evening. Zuko fell to his knees in front of her- bowing deeply. Her heart fluttered in relation, and she sank to her knees too.
"Forgive me?" He said soft and deep. His stomach rowed in nervousness.
Song's finger slipped under his chin and tipped his face upward. Her eyes spilled over with the truth. She had forgiven him long ago.
She rested her hand on the side of his face and smiled.
"How could I not?" She whispered gently.
His gratitude slipped from down his cheeks.

^Thanks; so if you all could help me gather up things to ask about/talk about, that'd be great. ;D I want to make it so that you all can/will participate and at the same time help other shippers get their heads out of the sand and remember Song.

Catalyst, you're a doll, really--but I think even you'll have your work cut out for you here. Let's face it, the creators haven't given us much to work with since that episode, and there are many, many people out there who would like to pretend Song never existed, or simply doesn't matter. But it certainly would rack up the number of discussions we could have if we talked about a character a week. I dunno, it's something to think on. Jean--that's lovely! I'm honored! If you upload that drabble to DA or ff.net, I'll edit the deviation to link it there.
