>>79546And I just realized the irony/lulz in using a happy Katara as a reaction image right after an image of Mai and Zuko kissing.
/a/...No, y'know what, +4 on a whole.I love you. I love you so much.Never change, no matter what.
>>79533HA!Glad I got someone!
Dude, I can totally see Katara being the biggest goddamn Maiko shipper ever.Hmmm..Sokka peered at his sister. "Katara, you're creepy. And I don't mean in good way."Aang gave him an odd look. "Is there a good way to be creepy?""You know..." Sokka made a few indistinct gestures. "Like campfire story creepy. Exept in this case, it'd go, ''twas a dark and moonless night when the infamous waterbending shadow queen spied upon the lovers like a creeping...creeper.'""Will both of you HUSH?" snapped the creeping-creeper waterbending shadow queen. "I'm trying to listen." She craned her neck around the bush they were all hiding behind, trying to hear a snatch of Mai and Zuko's conversation."Katara, really, they're trying to have some privacy. I mean, would you like it if Suki was eavesdropping on you and I talking? It's just--""Shut UP, Aang! I can't hear!"Sokka rolled his eyes. "I don't get what your thing is about them."Katara sighed. "I just think they're really cute, okay? Zuko is so angry and, you know...well, angry, most of the time, and so bottled up and Fire Lord-ly, and Mai is so distant and cynical...I just think it's really nice that they can relax around each other. I think it's cute.""Okay. And, sister dear, you can't reflect upon this happy romance from a non-creepy distance?"Katara rolled her eyes. "You're a boy, you don't understand how romance can affect a person.""Are you kidding?! Go wake Suki up, she can tell you JUST how much I know about romance--""Hush, Sokka!""Aang...you too?""I dunno, I sort of get what Katara was talking about. They balance each other out, you know? Like...the elements. Or something. Yin and Yang?""That's just--""I'm the Avatar and I say they're brimming with spiritual balance.""...Mph."Aang grinned and leaned over Katara's shoulder. "What're they talking about now?""I think...wait, let me listen."Katara leaned hard into the wind, trying to catch a snatch of the young couple's conversation."I think...Awwww! Zuko just told her he loved her!""*I* heard him say 'I think there are creepy, vicarious teenagers eavesdropping on us at this very moment, Mai.'""Nah, I heard it too!""No one wants to hear YOUR opinion, you...Avatar...guy.""Awww! Mai's got her head on his shoulder. And--Awww! Aang, look! They're kissing!""I'm done. That's it. I'm gone.""And yet, dear brother, I don't see you actually getting up.""...my leg's asleep. Also, uh, might wanna check up on your little soap opera there.""What? Mai's just....taking off her shirt. Oh.""Yeah.""Hm.""....Well, that's enough for tonight I guess!""G'night Katara!""Night, Aang!""...You two sicken me."
>>79550>"*I* heard him say 'I think there are creepy, vicarious teenagers eavesdropping on us at this very moment, Mai.'"Lol'd hard. Good show, sir.
>>79550I could almost see that being an actual episode, if you ignore the Y7 rating.>"I'm the Avatar and I say they're brimming with spiritual balance."I lol'd
D'awww, you guys. Thanks. I did the little Hellfire slideshow too, good to see my boredom was entertaining. :3
>>73056I love Mai's voice actor and character design.Everything else, under developed though. Everyone's love for her seems to be just fetish based just as any other character.
I like Mai because I got the distinct sense she wasn't going to put up with Zuko's tantrums. We needed way more characters that did that.
>>79616
>>79616For a character that started off with a very minor role, I thought she was pretty well developed, even to the point of getting a back story. Still could've used more.>>79617This. Mai's no-nonsense attitude > Katara's "healing vagina". And while I wouldn't go so far as to call them Yin and Yang, they really did balance each other out. Mai gets Zuko to calm the fuck down, Zuko gets Mai to open up and express herself more.
>>79469One question that comes to mind concerning her treatment of Tom-Tom. What were her options in the matter? She know's Azula and the odds of something unpleasent happening to the kid for not taking her "suggestion" strike me as pretty good.She is not prone to histronics, indeed I agree that she is somewhat coldblooded when push comes to shove, but the whole "Mai's emotionless and evil" meme only works as a contrast to Katara (who is idealistic and wears her heart on her sleeve, something she has in common with Zuko).>>79547Insofar as the shipping wars? Yup.Still, I think she would want to see Zuko happy like she is.>>79617More importantly, she is not prone to blow her top in response. The combination is a good way to defuse his tantrums.
I'm just gonna leave this here: http://community.livejournal.com/capslock_atla/976432.html
