So um, yeah ... I think I want to change this to a full color comic. It's just to much fun. and I missed drawing Katara's blue eyes.
I wanted to post this quickly because I'm working on my Zutara Week stuff. (So don't expect the next page until after Z-Week!)

Moving right along ...
We're getting some story now ...
slowly but surely ...
and what's this?!?!?!?!?
Zuko looks away when Mai is mentioned!!!
Dun dun dun!!!!
What can it mean?!?!?
Drama!

Congratulations on the 100th submission to DA!

I love where the story is going. And Zuko could never lie to save his life. You don't need Toph's sensitivity to figure that one out.

Of course I like the Yin and Yang hairpiece. Foreshadowing anyone?

And I have to agree on the coloring part. I LOVE coloring their eyes. Katara has such a pretty blue and gold eyes are always a fun favorite. XD

I'm also glad to know that your participating with Zutara Week. This will be my first year and I'm so excited!

MrJensen In reply to ??? [2009-07-27 09:10:06 +0000 UTC]

First: nice hairpin!

Aaand second: Zuko is not too good if he wants to keep secrets. There's obviously something he doesn't tell Katara. Oh, I just can't wait to figure out what it is!

Congratz with your 100th deviaton! ^____^

Let me just say that your artwork is beautiful, and I truly do appreciate the story.

But...I don't know, I wish Zuko didn't have to be unfaithful to Mai. Trust me, if there's one ship I favor when it comes to ATLA, it's Zutara, but still...I guess I'm not a fan of infidelity.

Please, in no way, shape, or form do I wish to degrade the quality of your work, or this story in general. I was just expressing my opinion.

Drisela In reply to Couramours [2009-07-27 14:56:27 +0000 UTC]

Woah there, no one is being unfaithful.
I'm not a fan of infidelity either. I'm also trying to keep Zuko and Katara in character, and I don't think either of them would cheat. Well, it might happen out of passion but they wouldn't let it continue, I suppose. ANYWAY, There is no cheating happening here. I guess when I draw them, it always looks romantic. But really, if you read over the last 9 pages you will see that they are just good friends. He looks away for a second, so he's hiding something about Mai, but it doesn't mean he's lying about her to get into Katara's bed. The problem with posting a page every other week is that it takes a while for the story to unfold, have faith.

I'm glad you enjoy the artwork, and I hope you will enjoy the story. Trust me, when it comes to Zutara, I treat their love story with a great deal of respect.

This looks really nice in color. And that yin-yang charm!!

And I was actually thinking that the servant girl on the left looked like Mai! Oh well, her being away on an island is much better. XD

And yay, Zutara week stuff. Can't wait to see what you come up with!

Drisela In reply to KyokoMari [2009-07-27 15:14:51 +0000 UTC]

I don't think Mai would ever serve Katara her dinner. I just don't see it happening.
And in a comic where I'm loving the costumes, a rich Fire Nation noblewoman would NOT be wearing something as dull as a maid's uniform.

I've got a few ideas for Z-Week, and I've even started some of them ...
but as always, some of them are harder than others.
