I hate it when people call Zutara fans “delusional” when there was so much material released that hinted at the two being a canon ship and the couple was even considered by the production team on multiple occasions. I’m sure there’s plenty of other stuff in addition to this and I’d appreciate contributions. But y'know, haters gonna hate.
Dante Basco confirms that Zuko was in love with Katara
Transcript: “Okay, well: I did fall in love with Katara. And I’ll probably always love her. But in the way you always hold a special place in your heart for your first love. And yeah, I love Mai. I really do. But if the world is really going to end, maybe we can get the old crew back together and save it again.”
sometimes you start reading a fic and immediately you’re like OH this was written by a child. okay. please know that i am proud of you but also i cannot keep reading this
“this kid is in eighth grade, and their teacher just told them that using ‘said’ is bad, so they’re plumbing the depths of the dictionary for every single other dialogue tag that exists - and some that don’t - and I’m proud of them for expanding their vocabulary, but I must depart all the same”
This needs to be like on this post for reals
But hey, remember, no matter how many different words you use for “said,” you cannot equal Frances Hodges Burnett in “A Little Princess.”
Namely: “Ejaculated.”
There are these two mean girls ™ - Lavinia and Jesse? I think? Anyway, at one point the text is all, “Goodness me,” Lavinia ejaculated, “how we can calculate!”
sm0l(but having gone through US 5th grade)! Subtilior:
Anyway. There’s a lot of ejaculate flying around those pages, is all I’m saying. Stick with “said.”
pleeeeeaaaaase don’t make fun of people for being overenthusiastic about their interests. if you see someone getting really excited about something and you think it’s a good idea to ruin their fun (and don’t think people don’t notice your eye rolls and side glances) you’re an asshole
