There needs to be a term for a pairing that you donât really ship, but you donât not ship. Itâs slightly more than indifference. Like I approve of this pairing but Iâm not going to die on this hill.
not an otp or a notp⌠an OKtp
Making this my Pinned Post.
My OKtps in ATLA:
(1) Tokka
(2) Romo!Tyzula
(3) Romo!Zukaang
(I.e., I ship them platonically just as hard as people ship romo, and if romo is where I need to get content and interaction, then Iâm ok with that)
(probably because Iâm on the aromantic spectrum, quiromantic)
I stan Aang. I stan Azula.
I will merrily defend the goodliest character and the most scary-making character from anyone. Bring it on. Iâm ready. Iâll even try to keep it polite. ;)
OTPs:
(1) BroTP Toph and Zuko
and also Older!Romo!Toph/Zuko
(and some assorted minor ships with Toph)
(2) storgic shipping with Irko
(3) plato!Ty Laang
(4) Ty Lee/Sokka
(5)plato!Ty Luko
(6) storge!shipping with FN sibs and WT sibs is always welcome. Zucest and Kacest are not.
(7) Katara/Aang
(8) Katara/Azula (I call this AZULara not Azutara, because of dissimilarity to Zutara and the shared blue)
OCPs: (one crack pairing)
(1) Azula/Aang
(2) Jet/Toph
(3) Mai/Jun (as in May/June, heh)
(4) Hakoda/Ursa
(5) Lu Ten x ??? (to be revealed)
Also you might wanna block the tag #atla mai hate while you peruse my blog if youâre so inclined. Or search it, if you are so inclined! Haha! I try not to devolve into true character bashing but I have some words to say in some of my meta-analyses.
(And I have a Google Doc that is the centerpiece of my dislike, available by PM)
Meta posts by me, whether original or a response/reblog, are tagged #CAPTLOK Commentary but I donât know how well that works since the Search doesnât seem to be turning up all of them to me. Would be interested in some feedback on that ...
