i love love love love love the parallels between these 2 ships <3 we all know that zutara's scenes r so romantic coded and putting them next to an established ship and the scenes being nearly identical is just so AH

anyway, the concept of zuko and eugene dying for katara and rapunzel respectively, and katara and rapunzel saving their lives <333

[calderacitylovers]

did someone say paintedspirit as rujinu 👂🏼

when i saw that one post on twt I knew I just HAD to bring that vision to live but i can't draw for shit 😭 and it's such a coincidence that I saw @intrlight 's tiktok post of their OCs in KPDH universe and I KNEW it was fate 😌 Immediately contacted them for a commission and that's how these babies were born 🧎🏻‍♀️

[calderacitylovers]

The fact that every time whem the writers put some distance between Aang and Katara, her and Zuko get closer

Aang still having to let go of his attachment on Katara, but refusing to do so

In the meantime

Zuko smiles at her again. It’s a bright, shiny, wonderful thing that makes his eyes twinkle. A child of Agni, as his people would say; one who shall light the way by the sheer force of his grin alone. Ridiculous. Absurd. Beautiful. Katara has to squash the brief, incessant urge to freeze the rice and dab the starchy ice against her searing face. “Okay,” he replies, and he just keeps looking at her, chopsticks hanging limp from his fingers. “We’re a team, Katara. It’s as simple as that.”

Katara likes Zuko. Like, really, really likes Zuko.

Zutara SlowBurn FanFiction: Personal Favs, part II

·        DESTINY IS A FUNNY THING by Megara Pike | Published: 2020-08-21 | 198K Words | 45 Chapters

ATLA Season 3 rewrite, fills in a lot of blanks between canon scenes. From the Southern Raiders to Sozin’s Comet through coronation and aftermath. Growing friendships, bonding, being there for each other, a carnival & a cave, epic spirits’ appearance on the Ember island, sparring, nightmares, assassination attempts, political ruses, and covert operations. Lovely, sweet. Exciting plot.

·        ATLA Book 4: Ashes by elayne_cypher | Published: 2018-10-27 | 306K words | 34 Chapters

This action-packed story picks up right after Ember Island Players and continues well after the war. Zuko is facing many challenges as a new Fire Lord. Romance, tough decisions, rebels, traitors, out-of-body experiences, secret headquarters, angst, teamwork, fire jets. The story has a bunch of OCs.

·        Refraction by caroes3725  | Published: 2020-09-09 | 215K Words | 37 Chapters

After breaking up with Aang, Katara needs to figure out her place and role in the patriarchal world. As determined Katara stubbornly bulldozes her way through Fire Nation political scene, her feelings for Zuko grow. Diplomatic visits, Gaang reunion, bonding with Kanna, insights into the life of Caldera city, stuffy politicians, cute correspondence, tropical storm, women supporting women, assassination attempts, personal boundaries. A sweet well-written coming-of-age story with a healthy measure of slow-burn and mutual pining. Katara and Zuko are both POVs, but the story mostly follows Katara. Bonus: Mai is NOT a clingy resentful idiot, but a smart person and a good friend. Some explicit language here and there, a bit of mild smut.

·        I Asked You First by halfhoursonearth | Published: 2020-10-03 | 142K words | 22/? Chapters

Ongoing, incomplete. Post Southern Raiders ATLAS3 rewrite. Mostly canon-compliant with blanks filled in between familiar scenes. Zuko and Katara develop a close friendship built on trust and sharing each other’s fears and hopes. Includes mentions of implied child abuse, Lu Ten’s diaries, exploring Avatar Roku’s legacy, sharing a balcony, heart-to-hearts, a hot spring under the stars, an actual date, and artbending. It’s incomplete, but what we have is bliss. Slowburn, mutual pining. Zutara-centric, but also explores the personalities of Team Avatar and their relationships.

·        Katara Alone by cablesscutie | Published: 2020-05-31 | 21K words

This story picks up right after Zuko’s coronation and spans two years afterwards.

·        LIKE WE’RE MADE OF STARLIGHT by Naladot | Published: 2021-11-28 | 5K Words

Katara leaves her post as the ambassador to the Fire Nation to take up a new one as the ambassador to the Northern Water Tribe. Her absence makes Zuko realize that he’s got an unfortunate crush, which he is determined to keep secret. Unfortunately for him, subtly has never been one of his strengths—especially when he arrives in the Northern Water Tribe and she keeps taking him on what seem to be dates.

·        FIGURE IT OUT by clearascountryair | Published: 2021-12-20 | 35K words | 13 Chapters

-  I FOUND YOU by that_turtleduck | Published: 2020-11-01 Completed: 2024-02-24 Words: 157,541 Chapters: 28/28

After divorcing Aang, Katara uproots her family and travels to Caldera. There she finds comfort, kindness and support from an old friend. Katara tries to find her footing as an independent political figure. Great story & relationship dynamic of Momtara & Dadko in their early 30s (Ember island, diplomatic meeting, dancing, turtleduck pond, letters). Delicious slow burn with rewarding spicy resolution in the end (explicit open door). Titters on the side of Anti-Aang.
