Here's my drawing for Day 7: Touch Starved!
I imagine Katara just came back from a long diplomatic trip and she's so tired, but they also missed each other too much, so catching up involves mostly snuggles. Mostly. :)
Local Turtleduck has no idea of what he's doing but it's somehow working.
@zutaramonth Day 3: After all these years ||
I just love the idea of them learning to dance together and being so very cute and awkward about it at first π₯Ίπ.
Brief backstory:
Although they were busy preparing for the war, they still needed time to have fun and de-stress so a small feast with music and dancing seemed like a good idea. Zuko and Katara were pushed to spend time together by the rest of the Gaang because they've had enough of the weird distance between the two, brought by brewing feelings that both weren't sure about acknowledging yet. At this point, they've already resolved most of their issues and were on track to becoming really good friends until the 'complication' happened.
Feelings can be ass sometimes fr.
Somehow, what started as a one time, peer pressured, clumsy bonding attempt between two hyperaware-of-each-other teenagers ended up lasting longer than expected. Excuses would be made to continue dancing together because once the initial awkwardness has passed, they found that it was actually quite relaxing (especially for two usually hot headed people) just going through the motions and communicating with looks and gentle touches what they had zero courage to say out loud. Both were also restless and couldn't always spend their hours training so dancing felt like fair game. A very pleasant and completely platonic way of passing the time with a good friend, or at least that's what they told themselves.
Then the war ended, feelings were finally acknowledged and returned now that there was enough time to reflect and actually do something about it and time continued to pass. No matter the changes and busy schedules that came with adulthood and bearing the responsibilities of ruling/helping rule a nation, some things remained constant. Though they never broadcasted it, the Gaang knew that Katara and Zuko would sometimes be found at night just swaying in each other's arms while they quietly talked about their day. It became a tradition - their way to bond and reconnect after a busy day. It was also muscle memory at this point and something they would naturally drift to doing when the opportunity arose. If they weren't training, lounging and drinking tea or walking arm in arm along the courtyard for a stroll, they'd be dancing.
Ofc the dances varied. Most of the time it was simple, intimate, and didn't require much energy. It was during festivals and other special events where they'd let loose and swap partners with their friends. They definitely would've taught each other's traditional dances too. Most of the time they stuck to couple dances though.
The two would then make it to their golden years surrounded by friends and family. In this au, Aang, Sokka and Suki are definitely still alive and kicking and they, together with Toph, would reminisc about the good old days and pat themselves in the back for helping get Zuko and Katara together. They would've gotten together eventually anyway but the Gaang just sped up the process and the credit for starting the whole dancing tradition goes to them. Aang isn't afraid to admit that he and whoever he married in this au also partake in said tradition; Sokka and Suki would do so every now and then but they much prefer exchanging swords as their love language; Toph is indifferent and much prefers just sitting back and letting them enjoy themselves.
This is way over due but I'm glad I was able to finish it. Will sadly be the only prompt I'll be able to do for zutara month bc life threw a wrench and made me too busy, though I'm still interested in making the other prompts at a later date. /N

what do you think of tall Katniss short Peeta?
i disagree.
Happy Anniversary to one of the best albums of all time, Songs From The Big Chair by Tears for Fears.
Released on the 25th of February in 1985. β¨
Sometimes I feel normal and then I remember that Peeta is canonically the only person Katniss found truly attractive. And she married him.

Is this anything
katniss & peeta || what's your favorite color?
do you ever just sit there and think about peeta and katniss before the hunger games? just imagining him watching him from afar to the point at which he's memorised every feature of hers, him trying to have crushes on other girls and then seeing her again and realising it's a lost cause, him watching from behind his father during early mornings at the bakery to catch a glimpse of her trading with him, watching prim drag her over to look at the cakes-
and her doing the same thing without realising it: she knew that he was second place in the school wrestling competition off the top of her head. she said she had seen him in the market lifting flour and just think about that- her watching the boy who saved her life, wanting to talk to him in the corridors, paying close enough attention to catch him watching her but never risking talking to him
peeta said that she didn't pay attention to him before the games and that just wasn't true.
she says that "this would have happened anyway", and i'm fully convinced that it would have. they'd have talked to each other eventually if they weren't reaped and it'd just be impossible for katniss not to fall for him because she was a little bit in love with him before the series even began
I'm reading hunger games for the first time and I just finished second book do not talk to me
"Then for the next eleven years, I tried to work up the nerve to talk to you."

βWithout success. So, in a way, my name being drawn in the reaping was a real piece of luck.β
