Description
Wherein Toph debunks the Stupid!Arguments against Taang, and Aang protects Momo's innocence. Please, do think of the lemurs!Inspired by this post at capslock_taang: [link] There are other debunkings there, but these are mine. ...yes, I do kinda lurk a lot. >.> <.<;;
It's a bit sketchy, but hopefully still readable. Hope you enjoy!
EDIT: To clarify Stupid!Argument #2... for the record, I like Zutarians. I am a Zutarian. But as far as Toph is concerned, there's no real comparison between herself and Sugar Queen/Sparky.
Characters belong to Mike and Bryan and Nickelodeon.

...Oh yeah. Hmm... Well, they also say that Aang is the last Airbender. But I'll bet that somewhere there's a small group of Air Nomads who squirreled away a bunch of lemurs and bison and went into hiding like the Sunbenders (or whatever they were called).

Sequel, yes... AND NO DEUS EX MACHINAS THIS TIME. DX I'd rather have a Kataangy sequel than the live-action, at this point.

I love this deviation and Toph gave fine answers to those absurd questions. Toph is Aang's Lois Lane and I am sticking too that. Katara is his Lana Lang and we all know where that goes (Smallville fan seeing the parallels between the two shows and the romances involved).

You made Toph look really good here. You see her face more.
And Aang is STILL a little wimp.

jinjinbun In reply to Wolvenfire86 [2009-02-20 21:51:20 +0000 UTC]
Mm, yep! ^^ Then again it's not like Toph wants someone to be her protector or strong manly-man--she's an independant, strong-willed girl who can take care of herself. I figure she just wants someone she can drag into doing fun things with her, like Aang and Sokka in the Runaway episode.

I'm sure that most girls would be independent and strong if earth bending was real.
Did you know that Toph was supposed to be a guy, but Nick suggested that Bryke change it? I think it was a good move.

P.S. Someone's probably pointed this out to you already, but you misspelled 'teen' in the last panel.

Oh, heh, that's actually 'teh sex'... I was using chatspeak to attempt sarcasm/comic effect. Writing in 'the' just seemed too serious for the panel Thanks for commenting, I appreciate it! ^_^

Micao [2009-02-20 16:42:06 +0000 UTC]
Did all those idiotic if very unreasonable arguments came from some Kataangers? Honestly, how childish can you get?!
Taang isn't sexy, neither is KATAANG! They're all under the fifteen! It's cute like it is supposed to be.
For the record: I am a Kataanger and I am very dissapointed that these silly pathetic arguments came from one..Just- Urgh! >.<
P.S Your drawings make my love for Taang ten times bigger!

jinjinbun In reply to Micao [2009-02-20 21:38:45 +0000 UTC]
To be fair, the author said the arguments came from a multi-fandom forum... it may not have been Kataangers, it might as well have been some other ship. In any case it doesn't say. ^^
I don't really get why Zutara seems to have a bad rep, but then again I try to stay away from the online poo-flinging BUT I DO intensely dislike when people try to claim that Taang-- a respectable ship in its own right!-- is merely a rowboat hanging off the side of S.S. Zutara. >_<
P.S. I'm always happy to spread the TAANG love!

Thanks, I tried my best to keep it both funny and sensible. My only regret is that Aang's sorta floating around for a few panels. Still, he's not quite as appropriate for the 'debunking' role as Toph anyways. XD

Wow. You are seriously my hero. I'm just going to fling this around DA subtly and spread the love Ithinkyes. >D
Really, though. This is made of awesome. Poor little dorky Aang is just rolling with it, proving Toph's Point #1. But Aang's not wimpy all of the time... just usually when he's not around Toph. >D LOGIC. I HAVE FOUND IT.

YOU STOLE LOGIC FROM TOPH. XD I'm glad you like!
Eh, I think Toph enjoys Aang's wimpiness (can't always be all All-Powerful Avatar xP); he's not like Katara who often gives her grief about what she does. Also, it seems Aang's a bit passive-aggressive anyways

SHE HAS BLESSED ME WITH IT. Seriously, had I stole it, I'd be dead now. You don't steal from Toph EXCEPTAANGSTEALINGHERHEARTAHAHAHAHA.
It's true! She likes having someone she can beat on but that is also strong enough to stand beside her. And, really, the only things that come close to Toph's Badassery are Aang's Avatarness and Sokka's Existance. XD

You had me at poor Aang trying to cover up Momo's big ears! <3
I have to admit, I looooooove Taang. Most people assume this is because I'm a Zutarian, but that's not true. Those two captured my heart as soon as they ran hand-in-hand in "The Blind Bandit!" And xcgirl08's Taang fics further converted me. The tough little Earthbender locked away all her life swept away by the boy who soars the skies. *That* is very swoony. Actually, Taang has the potential to be the most romantic of all the Avatar pairings. Viva la Taang!

jinjinbun In reply to Mersaydee [2009-02-20 21:09:16 +0000 UTC]
I completely agree. I think of it as Zutara got me interested in checking out the show, but when I actually watched the episodes it was Toph and Taang that totally captured my imagination (and flew away with it... on Appa )
Besides, I think that Taang often brings an optimistic light-hearted air to what otherwise is usually pretty deep and aangsty. They're so amazing together, how can one resist? ^^
