What are some people's favorite old shippings? Even the old characters need some shipping love as well. Pakana has already happened as Pakku and Kana has finally tied the knot after so many years.
But how about the shipping of Bumi and Hama? An all powerful King and a girl who could control him. A kinky romance if you ask me. Something tells me Bumi loves to get kinky and bloodbending might be for him if it doesn't kill the old man first.

Ahhh lol *karma* The Bumi/Hama part made me laugh.
I ship Pakku/Kana, Ursa/Hakoda (after Ursa's banishment), Ursa/Iroh (pre-Ursa's banishment), Iroh/Aunt Wu and I'm sure there are more. ^_^ Bato/Hakoda too, but they're a younger couple so I don't know if that counts.

I ship Hakoda and Ursa, also Jun and Iroh. Those are probably the only older couples I ship.

^^Does Mai/Hakoda count if only one of them is old.

Oooh, Urkoda is getting around!!! My sister kind of started it I think. She told me, I mentioned it in the Zutara threads, it got around. Wow. Yeah. I would totally ship that.

Hakoda/Bato, anyone? It's one of my Avatar OTPs, which is...actually kind of odd, now that I think about it.
Kana/Pakku is adorable and canon and ten kinds of awesome, and Ursa/Hakoda is also epic. :3

Ozai/Hakoda. Lol. Um, I'd have to say Aunt Wu and Iroh would be pretty nice. Spark from the beginning, huh?

I still don't understand how Pakku/Kanna worked out. Pakku was obviously madly in love with her, but Kanna ran away halfway around the world to avoid marrying him. Katara herself said, "But she didn't love you, did she? It was an arranged marriage." Yet, Katara squeals in the finale, "You and Gran-Gran must be so happy to have found each other again!" like they were true lovers separated by the war who'd both been brokenhearted for years and waiting to be reunited. I don't believe it's impossible things could have worked out for them now, but it didn't happen the way Katara implies. If Jun counts as "old," well, I sort of-casually-but-not-passionately ship Jun/Zuko. Why else would she be so obsessed with determining if Zuko has a girlfriend? I guess that's what meant by "for the lulz." Oooh, Urkoda is getting around!!! My sister kind of started it I think. She told me, I mentioned it in the Zutara threads, it got around. Wow. Yeah. I would totally ship that. Wouldn't Zutara shippers be the last people to ship Ursa/Hakoda? Both ships couldn't happen, if you know what I mean. I could almost see Ursa/Hakoda, though - the idea of Fire Nation and Water Tribe royalty marrying to help bring about peace is a popular idea. Now I want to read fan fic with that approach to those two.

I didn't really understand the Pakkana either jill, but I just let it go. It was really cute and not intrical, so I'm happy with it. Bakoda is one of my OTPs too. It was actually the second ship I started shipping after Zutara and I don't know why. I think I shipped it starting in Bato of the Water Tribe. lol I love the fanon idea of Ursa/Hakoda, Zuko/Katara, Azula/Sokka all at the same time. I don't know if that's legal, but I love it.

Yeah, I know. It's cool. I imagine and Urkoda fic would probably focus mainly on those two anyway - there's enough work within their characters to where Zutara really doesn't need to be a focus at all.

I don't understand how Urkoda and Zutara couldn't happen at the same time. It's not like people are shipping young Hakoda/Ursa who would then give birth to baby Katara and baby Zuko. It'd be a second marriage composed of in-laws. It's not unheard of. It happens in RL too. It's always bizarre to me that people think Urkoda and Zutara at the same time would be impossible. If anyone has a logical explanation of the obstructing factor, I'd love to read it.

There's no taboo against step-siblings in a romantic relationship?

Well...technically Step-siblings aren't actually siblings. But, probably. Why for who?
