ATLA Q&A

Thanks for the tag @authorjoydragon​ As if I don’t talk about ATLA/Zutara enough (constantly folks. Just, all the time) let’s go for it!

Had to start a new thread because tumblr hates me but what else is new?

General Questions

1. Who’s your favorite character? Katara. Katara Katara Katara.

2. Who’s your comfort character? Aside from Katara? Zuko.

3. Which element would you bend? I think water.

4. Which nation is your favorite? I love how important community is in the SWT, so probably that.

5. Why do you love ATLA? Man, I just. Incredible characters. Wonderful worldbuilding. Beautiful settings. And the animals? Hecka cute. 100/10 am mad at myself for not watching it when it aired (I was at the point in middle school where “it wasn’t cool to watch cartoons.” Middle School gem was pretty insecure.)

Could get you attacked questions

1. Who is your least favorite character in the gaang? Not a huge fan of this question because I think everyone in the gaang, at some point, has done something I don’t 100% love (Except Katara. She’s perfect). But I guess I just relate to Aang the least? Wishy washy answer, I know, but it is what it is.

2. What character do you think is severely underrated? SUKI. SUKI SUKI SUKI.

3. What’s your least favorite nation? The Northern Water Tribe for two reasons. 1. I don’t handle cold anymore and 2. Sexist bastards.

4. What’s your controversial ATLA opinion? I don’t know what some people might consider controversial (since I’m still VERY new to the fandom and also very much live in my Zutara bubble) but I guess the fact that Bryke should have let the WRITERS WRITE. This is not me being like “only artists can art and only writers can write” because that’s not true. But Bryke’s strength is in character and concept design, not storytelling, and Aang’s arc (and everything they did post-canon) suffered for it.

Shipping Questions

1. What’s your favorite ship and why? Zuko x Katara. I did not know that I was such a simp for enemies to lovers until they were introduced to me. They just get each other on a level no one else does, you know? And the whole thematic parallels, and the sun/moon symbolism, I just- For a show that their main theme was BALANCE I seriously don’t understand why Zutara wasn’t endgame.

2. What’s your least favorite ship? Katara x Aang. There was no build up from her side and I will NEVER forgive Bryke for pushing Katara’s feelings under the rug just so “the hero could get the girl.”

3. Do you sometimes self-insert? I wouldn’t define it as “self-insert”, more like I’m writing about Zuko’s trauma so I draw upon my own experiences. Or like, with the World will always welcome lovers, I poured all of my years of customer service experience into Katara’s interactions with Zuko.

4. What’s your crack ship? SUKITARA. Can you imagine the power? The absolute adorableness? The idea of Katara roasting her brother everytime he does something dumb like “No wonder Suki picked me over you” just makes me cackle with glee.

5. What ship would you make canon if you were the creator? Ok before I get into it, let me just say that honestly, only Sukka should have ended up together in canon. They are all KIDS and after everything they went through, they all need therapy before pursuing a romantic interest. Not to say you can’t fall in love and be in a healthy relationship while you’re still working on yourself BUT they weren’t there yet. I mean for crying out loud, Aang never unblocked his chakra. But I digress.

Zutara, duh, because they are just perfect for each other. Also, like 10+ years down the road, Taang because of balance and friends to lovers and basically all of Aang’s vision of Toph in the Swamp.
