Hi all! I'm so excited about this new forum!
I stumbled across A:tLA several years ago (after the first two seasons had aired) and before watching more than even a few episodes, I came across some amazing Zutara fanfic and have never looked back since! A:tLA and ZK were really my first foray into 'fandom' and 'shipping' (lol it's hard to imagine that once upon a time I had no idea what these things even were, hehe), and outside of A:tLA I'm not even much of a shipper. But as usual, Zutara is the exception to every rule and I honestly think it's a little unhealthy how much I love this pairing, ahaha. Over the years I've been blown away by the quality of work that the Zutara fandom has produced - so much amazing fanfiction and fanart and amazingly insightful analysis and discussion! I'm excited to see many of my favorite ZK authors and artists on this forum too!
Aside from Zutara, I'm a fan of Sukka, Zukka, Jetko (lol this is more of a crackship for me tbh), and a little bit of Maiko. I love all of the characters in the show, though Zuko edges out as my favorite. And for some reason I love to ship him with everybody, heh.
I try to be respectful of all ships and shippers and am pretty open minded about such things. I have a very low tolerance for fandumb drama and shipping wankery, which is why tumblr has been pissing me off these last few weeks (even after staying away from the tags that BS still manages to find its way onto my dash on a semi-regular basis). Also, this is my first time joining a forum like this - it shall be an interesting experience. Looking forward to getting to know you all fine people! XD
