Ivy-kun I would say... yeah, Zutara/Avatar has definitely consumed a large portion of my high school years, but I'm not sorry that it happened. In fact, I'm glad that it did because not only was I able to meet so many wonderful people, such as you all here on Gaia and on dA, but shipping Zutara has finally given me a way to express passion about something. I remember reading a play called Equus (anyone know of it?) and one of the main themes revolved around passion vs. apathy and how we would be nothing without passion. Ever since I joined this guild, this fandom, I've been enlightened, so to speak. Thinking of how my life would have been without Avatar? God, it would have been boring. I wouldn't have had anything to look forward to watch or to read/look at on dA! Shipping Zutara has made me think in different perspectives, and that is never a bad thing. Right now, I've been arguing with my ex about Zutara and Kataang for the past four/five hours via texting, and it's making me happy that I'm arguing with him, because I'm never this passionate about anything, and I feel so happy that I am! Plus, I'm also shocked and curious to know why he's even bothering to defend Kataang... Anyways, if being passionate is an outcome of being obsessed with this series, then for me, I think I would like to keep it alive, just until I can find another series to keep the passion afloat; but no doubt that I'll always remember this series and pairing as one of my top OTP's. If anything, with how I've responded to this ship over the past few years, this is my top OTP. And those of you who have people around you (in front of you, I mean, like your parents) who you can talk to about Zutara/Avatar like a crazed fan, you're lucky, because I can't do that with my parents or the large majority of my friends. It makes me quite sad, really. XD But luckily I have this thread. =D (Oh, and I forgot to mention how much I've improved my writing skills from writing Zutara fanfics, haha). I hear you all the way! I love your explanation here. I can really see how much Zutara has had an impact on you. I'm the same way. If it wasn't for Avatar/Zutara, I can't even image how boring my high school years would have been. It really has brought alot of us together and I've made some really amazing friends here on Gaia because of it as well. :3 Ooooh! I hope you beat your ex at this shipping argument! Tell us how it goes! whee Do you write on fanfiction.net at all? heart

Tell us how it goes! whee Do you write on fanfiction.net at all? heart We're all united through the awesomeness that is Zutara! XD Lol, we ended it a while ago, but as far as I'm concerned, I so won, just because he would dodge my questions about how Aang didn't help Katara emotionally like Zuko did, and he would just bring up some other point. We both know I won. ;D I did write on fanfiction.net for a while, but due to school, I had to stop, which was a shame, but I did join a Creative Writer's Club in my school, and that enabled me to continue writing... Although not about certain fandoms, but hey, writing is still writing! I had written something for Zutara Week last year (for Stare), and I plan on writing something for all the prompts! Haha. I currently have something in the works for "Family". Here's a link to my entry for "Stare": Clickie!EDIT: Apparently, I was wrong! It's from two years ago! XD

Bringing up the Zutara emotional card is excellent! ;D Oh my gosh. I just read your story and I LOVE IT! I was always hoping they'd do an episode about the anniversary of their mother's death, but that never happened. I love how you wrote the characters and their interaction! The Suki/Sokka part with the flowers was adorable, and the Zuko/Katara comforting part was superb. I really hope you write more. <3
