09 - OMFG LOOKIT ZUKO LOOKING AT KATARA. *FOAM*
36 - LOVE THE OFF CAMERA-NESS 8D
39 - PURE GENIUS


forgot my capslock lul.
i love them all-- srsly this brightened my nite. :) thank you.

I YOINK. I CREDIT. YOU WIN. 8D

[identity profile] topazera.livejournal.com 2008-09-03 02:18 am (UTC)(link)
YES, you commented on individual icons (so now I can flail over them)! I <3 YOU.

09 - SERIOUSLY. He looks at her in awe/respect/admiration all the time during TSR. Zuko-crushes-on-Katara is SO canon in my mind. XD
36 - THX, I COULD HAVE CROPPED THOSE SCREENCAPS 5 MILLION MORE TIMES.
39 - It's only genius because the parallels are so obvious but so unintentional! Oh Bryke, your whole world ships Zutara. ;)

You definitely brightened my night, so really thank yooou! I'm blushing. <3

[identity profile] makeitsimple1oo.livejournal.com 2008-09-03 03:57 am (UTC)(link)
09 - TOTES. and great minds think alike. XD (so that indirectly proves-- Bryke has no romance cells in their brains)
36 - (oops i actually meant 32) YW. I WOULD'VE WATCHED YOU THRU IT ALL. 8D
39 - (oops i actually meant 35) GOD KATARA DONCHA JUST LOVE TALL GUYS? DON'T DEEE NYYYYY ETTTT. XDXD

I <3 YOU. 8DD
YES. i wasn't sure if ya wanted that or not (I've met some icon-makers that prefer short comments vs bigger ones)... I R GLAD.
i *always* wanna comment on each icon-- i always have a different opinion for almost each one!

FOR GREAT JUSTICE!

01 to 04 - i absolutely LOVE when Katara and Zuko get their Zutara moments when only those two are on screen. X3 it's like TV's ship Zutara. 8D and you captured it perfectly-- *standing O*

08 - ah HAAAAAAAH. BRILLIANCE. you know he wanted to say "I could... tie Katara to a tree-- for old times sake." SO BAD. YOU KNOW IT. XD

10 thru 12 - man sumtimes i forget how badass Katara is-- i love it when she's not so mommy-ish all the time. THANK YOU ZUKO, FOR BRINGING HER BAD SIDE OUT, TIME AND TIME AGAIN. 8D

15 - SAME.FRIGGIN.HERE. Zuko SO had a canon!crush on her-- i mean LOOKIT; he went out of his way to touch save Katara by tackling her and then he stared at her the rest of the episode. XD

16 - oh we know Katara, we know and so does Zuko, whom you'll be hearing from in about 2 weeks after the war-- bout his OWN moms and HIM needing "it" (among other things NUR HUR)

19 to 21 - Katara is so not 14. she is so NOT 14. in TSR, she was SO legal and Zuko's age. Srsly-- it was like Mommy and Daddy went to go take care of buziness. Like... vacation! 8D

22 - LOL so calls for a "Katara is NOT Amused" quotation preferably "Endgame? Katara is not amused." quotation

27/30 - OMFG SHE'S LOOKIN AT HIS LIPS. KATARA LEAN IN LEAAAAAAN IN, DAMNIT. FEK THE SCRIPT! FEK. THE. SCRIIIIPT. D:

25 thru 37 - man i love that hug and the placement of them both and the fact that those two are the only ones on camera for like 10 seconds. ALSO, the frigging sunset. THE SUNSET. SYMBOLISM! heck, off the top of my head: the sun (Zuko) can finally be at rest because it's accepted by the moon (Katara), so he eases back into forgiveness (sunset) and they both can share the sky once again (mutual friendship and respect). Y/Y? 8D

38 thru 40 - HIPPIES SHIP ZUTARA. how can that not be moar awesome? ;__; stupid bryke. stupid fake foreshadowing. stupid... everything (cept Zutara and it's fans and shippers).



HUGE ICON-FANGASMIC COMMENT IS HUGE. 8D
*foams all over you* <33

[identity profile] topazera.livejournal.com 2008-09-03 05:49 am (UTC)(link)
AHAHA, you're so cute! I figured that no one would actually want to talk about icons as much as I do... but I'm so pleased you proved me wrong! For me, iconing is totally an excuse to stare at the scenes I like for hours. XD

RE: 32 - YAH, I FIGURED YOU MEANT THAT ONE. OOH KINKY! <3

01-04 - I know! Say whatever you want about Bryke, they did give us some fantastic Zuko/Katara scene in the last few eps which they didn't need to do. I'm still squeeing about all the pretty. How did they not convert themselves?

08 & 22 - OH MAN. I'm already in the middle of a FOR THE LULZ batch from TSR. D'you mind if I add your jokes? I will credit you!

10-12 - Yeah, Kickass!Katara is pretty much my favorite thing ever. When people say "Oh, but Zuko brings out the worst in her!" I'm always thinking "No! He brings out what she tries to repress. Which is healthly AND TOTALLY BADASS AND HOT.

15 - Dude, I will always defend Zuko's canon-crush. Plus, I could so imagine since Zuko has such a one-track mind that he hadn't realized how attractive Katara is until he meets them at The Western Air Temple AND LEAPS ON TOP OF HER. And then he's all "Hey. You're really hot. And fiery. And powerful. Wanna make-out?".

16 - I know! Their development is so parallel. Now that Zuko is like "TEAM ZUTARA IS AWESOME!", which is canon, you know he's going to recruit her for MISSION: FIND MY MOMMY. XD

19-21 - Zuko and Katara as the Gaang's parental figures are totally a kink of mine. IT'S GROWN-UP TIME NOW, AANG. GO PLAY WITH APPA.

27/30 - LOLOLOL! She TOTALLY IS looking at his lips! I didn't notice it until I went to screencap and then HELLO LINE OF SIGHT. SHE WAS TOTALLY THINKING ABOUT IT. DAMNIT KATARA, TAKE THE INITIATIVE! LIKE YOU NEVER DO IN KATAANG CAUSE IT'S CREEPY.

25-37 - Y! Your analysis is beautiful, BB. MUTUAL FRIENSHIP AND RESPECT FTW! When I was coloring, I was like, "GAH. But it's so beautiful! How is this supposed to be TOTALLY PLATONIC?"

38-40 - SEEEEEECRET TUNNNEL! YEAH!


HUGE REPLY IS EQUALLY HUGE. I CANNOT STOP CAPSLOCKING.
*flails around w/ you in glee*

[identity profile] makeitsimple1oo.livejournal.com 2008-09-04 03:30 am (UTC)(link)
8D TEEHEE. thanks for seeing it as cuteness rather than creepyness. XDXD
and YUS i'm glad i proved ya wrong-- i always see a batch of icons a time to comment on each one. i mean the creator DID spend their love/sweat/tear/blood/food stains in EACH and every icon, so i mite as well appreciate every little one. 8D

01~04 - pfff it's like them liking dominitrix's. they like the pleasure/pain Zutara brings them-- but they'll never admit it outloud. heck, i bet as we speak they're re-re-re-re-re-re-watching TSR in their Zutara jammies. XD

08 & 22 - LOL GOD YES. yes yes yes you can! go wild. i'm honored. 8D

10~12 - totally! i mean, how the heck does that girl keep her head on her shoulders without expressing anger? if i traveled with AANG and had to baby the kid that was so overly crushing on me and threatening the world while so, i would make myself a sound-proof igloo each day just to PMS. gawd. WORDDDD. i love how Zuko can take her badass side and flow with it-- hell even promote it. Ahh the lovelies AND FRIGGIN KICKASS AND HOTNESS of Zutara... *wistful sigh*

15 - HAHAHAH. XDD troofax! same goes for Katara, if i caught Zuko bathing himself in the water i bent i'd be all over that piece of ex-princeness-- making him call me peasant all over again. MAN how i wish there was a Zutarian's deleted scenes in the DVDs. XDXD Mmmm leapage... heck, didya know he pushed Suki outta the way to get to KATARA'S GOODIES saving Katara? SO. CANON. CRUSHIN'.

16 - exactly! so eloquently put: their development is parallel. heck their love interests are parallel'd (oh did you happen to read an essay i typed up about that?) and LOL fudge yes. i can just picture the looks on Mai and Aang's faises XDXD:
Zuko: "hey Katara, wanna halp me find my mommy?"
Katara: "let's do it on appa again rite?"
Zuko: "hell yes let's go and in position on appa."
Aang & Mai: D:

19~21 - LOL or Momo since Appa ships Zutara and was Zuko and Katara's sky lovenest ride voluntarily. XD and word, same here. the epicness of Fandomme's Stormbenders made my dream come troo, with all the hint-hints and dialogue of the Gaang-- Zuko and Katara as the gaang's parental figures was real. and ya know they so are. Zuko left homework for Aang when he went to save Katara's dad (since Aang couldn't do that himself pffff some son-in-law) and Katara changes his diaper, cooks for him, kisses his booboos, chases him down to clean his room, picks out his clothes was Sapphire Fire. PARENTAL FIGURES YESPLZ. 8D

27~30 - LOL NOWAI U LIE. i completely thot you knew and it was intentional. XDDDD wow awesome. involuntary Zutara is just as good-- it's like almost sex is as sexy as the actual sex. UR ALMOST SEX IS AWESOME! 8D and YEAH! WTF KATARA, YOU STARE AT HIS LIPS ALL FRIGGIN DAY WHY DONCHA FEEL THEM? AT LEAST YOU WONT GO TO JAIL FOR IT. PEDO KISS PEDO KISS WATCHA GONNA DO WHEN THEY COME FO YOU, KATARA?

25~37 - TY! 8D SRSLY. SUNSETS FTW. SPARRING BUDDIES FTW. KATARA TEASING ZUKO BUT THEN SAYING AS A BABY HE WAS ADORABLE FTW. and GAH. TOTES. how i wish Zuko would just ... catch her bathing or something-- GOO'BYE PLATONIC-NESS, HELLOOOOOO AWKWARD SEXUAL TENSION!

38~40 - WOOOO! I LOVE HIPPIES. i bet they smoke Zutara. O___o XDDD


HUGE COUNTER-REPLY IS VERY EFFECTIVE! CAPSLOCKING. IS. SPARATARRRAAAAAAAAA!!!
