"Zuko would've chosen Aa.ng over Katara"? I raise to you "Zuko would've chosen even Momo over Katara", because why stop there?
Now, if we are being serious, Zuko chose Katara over Suki when those rocks were falling. Zuko chose Katara over A.ang in TSR case. Zuko chose Katara to fight against Azula over Toph, Suki and Sokka. And Zuko chose Katara over his own life. All canon, btw.

A Denied Eclipse
🎨 commissioned from aethyranovastra 🫶
and one last thing about zutara! i’ve recently made a post where i jokingly commend zuko for supporting katara’s murderous intentions in the southern raiders. but i want to push back on something many antis say, which is that zutara functions as some kind of “dark romance” ship where the two “make each other worse” and the usual spiel. the claim that zuko is a traditional “bad boy” in opposition to “good girl” katara has already been disproven a million times, but to dig deeper:
the charm of most straight dark romances is the lack of morality displayed by the male half of the couple. this appeals to people because a protagonist with no moral limit is willing to commit any type of crimes to protect or avenge his love interest. “i’ll burn the world down for you” is the most common dark romance trope. in that type of stories, the woman often functions as a moral compass and she ends up either fixing the man or being corrupted herself. while she’s inherently good, she does not have strong convictions. when the man changes, it is because he loves her, not because she’s successfully redeemed him and changed his views.
zuko and katara can never fit that archetype because zuko and katara have strong, unmovable, righteous morals. even as a villain, there are lines zuko refuses to cross. times and times again, he’s moved to act out of compassion and empathy. not for a woman, not for the Uncle he’s devoted to, but for people and creatures he barely knows. kindness is inherent to him. he’s more than willing to leave mai, the girl he canonically loves, to become a part of the anti-imperialist resistance because his conscience allows him no other path. even in a world where zutara happens, zuko’s redemption would not be kickstarted by his romantic love for katara.
zuko would not “burn the world down” for katara because zuko would not love a woman that asks that of him, and katara would not love a man that would. their sense of justice, their kindness and their willingness to do what is right even when it’s impossibly hard is what would ultimately draw them together.

my devoted but dangerously unstable knight will be hearing about this
So... Zuko's entire arc is about redemption, breaking free from his father, from what the Fire Nation instilled in him, and realizing that his destiny has nothing to do with what Ozai imposed on him. Basically, that he's not like his father or Azula.
And yet... there are people who will tell you that a romantic relationship between Zuko and Katara is impossible because HIS FATHER AND GRANDFATHER DID THIS OR THAT (especially Zuko's grandfather who wiped out the waterbenders at Katara's house)!
Do you realize how ridiculous this argument is?
Zuko didn't commit the acts his father or his grandfather did. And if that really mattered, then Katara wouldn't be friends with Zuko at all. If Zuko's family's actions were truly representative of his destiny, HE WOULDN'T HAVE HAD REDEMPTION OR BE PART OF THE GAANG FAMILY!
This argument is driving me crazy!
It makes no sense to say that Zuko couldn't be romantically involved with Katara because his grandfather destroyed the waterbenders! Because in that case, Katara couldn't be friends with him or see him as family (like she did canonically) either!
And besides, this argument is ridiculous! Because yes, the waterbenders were wiped out because of Zuko's grandfather, and therefore Katara almost died because of that bastard. Except so did Zuko! His mother literally had to kill that bastard to save Zuko! Katara and Zuko were both threatened with death by the same person! It actually only brings them closer narratively!
And what's more, once again, Zuko's entire arc hinges on the fact that he's not like his family. That he was literally treated like dirt because deep down he's always been a good person!
Those anti-Zutara people are getting on my nerves with their crappy logic!
I am living the dream with my zutara miis!!
Buongiorno.

I finally finished it...
I think I redid it like 4 times, and I still not satisfied with the end result, but to this point I'm tired,
maybe I'll redo it somewhere in the future, who knows ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Anyway here you go!
thinking about how the “self-insert” take for zutara doesn’t check out to me. bc couldn’t zuko fans also self insert onto mai? or any other female character? there’s also zuko x reader but anyway.
i mean maybe girls watching the show *did* relate to katara (given that the fanbase was around her age at the time of airing) and therefore her liking aang didn’t ring true to the average preteen/teen girl?
and they felt zutara met katara’s needs better?
like is that bad?
same way bryke related to aang (on record btw, “having a crush on your babysitter”) and self-insert wish fulfilled their ship?
katara’s perspective and preferences are only considered in one of those

Hey uh. Allegedly they’re not even looking at each other in this scene, but
I’m not the only one who sees this, right?
