Description One word frees us
Of all the weight and pain in life,
That word is Love
~ Socrates ~

I had this idea floating in my head about an ATLA/Little Mermaid crossover. But then I thought, "No, too overdone and simple." ...Then, I ended up doing a deviation about an underwater theme. Forget the Little Mermaid, I have a whole new plot in mind.

Aarghh, the idea for a Zutara fic is swirling in my brain. But I want to make a comic about it. But I already have a Zutara comic in the works. But that project's come to a halt because, for the life of me, the daunting and tedious task of creating a background brings out the procrastinating monster. >_<

About this little scene:
Zuko was thrown overboard (by accident, on purpose - details not really worked out, yet), and is in the obvious danger of drowning since he'd never learned how to swim.
Katara, the water-dweller, swims up to him and says she can save him if he promises to give her his most valued possession.
Thinking he's hallucinating before sleeping within death's embrace, he agrees as he slowly fades from consciousness.

Ridiculously corny, I know, but I can't help it. :3

Edit
Oops, gotta add that Zuko and Katara look extremely red on my monitor and must be on yours, also. I know I've ignored the fact that objects become slightly duller in the ocean, but I needed a contrast of passion vs. calmness.

Here's a list of what to expect as well as remind me of my ideas. It might/may not change, depending on my mood.

I think this is really beautiful~ I love it. And I don't think it's corny either XD but of course, I love this pairing so I don't find much corny at all. It's all cute.

FlameoZutara [2008-09-24 06:53:15 +0000 UTC]

I don't think it's ridiculously corny at all! In fact, it sounds hopelessly romantic. Big difference.

Anyway, awesome pic! I especially love Zuko's whole look. Very nice as always!

MartyBishop [2008-09-24 06:21:15 +0000 UTC]

Yes, this is truely "Ridiculously corny", but you know what?

I love it !!

Such a tragic, beautiful thing ... ! maybe that's what I like about Zutara so much: you can make so many many tales of their love ~ .

In any case, it's a great piece of art. I love Zuko's hair *laughs*
And the color-scheme you used.

Very gorgeous. I've always had a soft spot for mermaids (and the like).

The dragons on Zuko's robes are such a great little detail.

I'm waitin' for it and I still don't get the first comment xD And yeah this sounds like a fun idea! What IS Zuko's most valued possession... hmm... his honor? How would Katara take Zuko's hon-

never mind.

Neurosylum In reply to luna-wannabe [2008-09-24 06:06:06 +0000 UTC]

LOL Oh, my, I was laughing so hard when you suggested what his most prized possession was.

Well, since I haven't really spent much time on developing the story, that idea could be considered... *whistles*

And the rating of the story just shot up to L for "Lemony Goodness".

xD Lemons are funzz. Speaking of which you should read 'A Matter of Honor' if you don't already it's totally awesome C:

And Zuko = honor. It's so obvious

Haven't read that yet, but will put on my "to read" list. I'm getting into "Another Brother" and it's awesome-sauce.

*snicker* Well, it's been his downfall more than once. The story's starting to smell like lemons!

Now that's what I like to see, zutara. lol Great job. That premise is certainly not corny. I think it's very original. And it captured my attention.
