Description
Hello everyone!First of all, I want to apologize for not submitting anything in what seemed longer than forever. It’s just a lot of stuff has been going on and getting back into the swing of college is something to get used to. But, I’m starting to get used to it and I’m ready to get back on the ball and put up some new Zutara art.
New Updates:
San Diego Comic Con – I’M GOING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I’m sorry. I am just SO excited!
As for this picture, this has been sitting in the wings for quite awhile and I have no idea why it took my so long to finish. I’m just lazy I guess. O____o But, here it is. Also, this is a companion picture to my previous one.
Plot –
The soft murmuring of the characters on stage played in front of the small group sitting atop in the balcony. It had been a very long play about all of their journeys and was more about well-established humor than the entire story behind it. The actor/actress choices have been iffy, but as much as everyone hated to admit it, they picked up the personality of the people they were playing very well.
Katara took a deep sigh as she slouched down deeper into the firm seat she was sitting on. Her back ached as she began to watch their final day in Ba Sing Sei play out. It seemed so long ago that all of this happened, and Katara had to keep reminding herself that it was only months since the day that everything changed. Katara grumbled when she listened to the loud snoring of her brother from behind her and she listened to Suki slapping Sokka to try to wake him up with no avail.
Katara rolled her eyes and leaned forward, looking over Zuko, to see Aang leaning deeply into his seat with his ridiculous hat pulled down over his eyes. His breathing was slow, so she knew that he must have fallen asleep quite a long time ago. Toph hadn’t laughed manically for a while, so Katara just suspected the Earth Kingdom girl was most likely sleeping or lost her voice from laughing so much.
A few minutes passed in total silence as Katara had to fight the sleep in her eyes. That’s when she saw it. Her eyes flew open as she looked intently on the scene playing in front of her. Something she had never forgotten and had caused her so much confusion and pain that it nearly drove her mad. It was the very talk between her and her former enemy, Prince Zuko, when they were alone in the glowing caves under the city of Ba Sing Sei.
Katara quickly turned her face over to her left to look at Zuko who seemed to be shocked as well. She quickly looked around panicked hoping all her friends were asleep so they wouldn’t hear or see what had taken place inside the caves so many months ago. To her relief, she saw most of them leaned back in their seats and in a deep sleep. Katara sighed swiftly before her eyes were averted to the small stage. Word for word, that moment she had kept such a personal secret was revealed to the entire auditorium.
It showed the anger she released to the Prince when he first fell into the caves with her. It showed her yelling against his seated form. It was hard to hear the words she spoke to him because of how much things have changed between them. Now he was a part of their group and fighting on their side as if he was meant to be there all along. He was a completely different person than the one she met on the small Southern Pole so long ago.
Katara smiled as she recalled the past few days and how close they had become. They were good friends now and she blushed softly as she recalled her hugging him. Suddenly, she remembered a few small moments of their talks, the occasional accidental brushing of their hands, their back to back fighting, his laughter, his smile. If you told her that this is how it could be when he joined their group, she would have thought you were insane, but it was the truth. They had gotten close.
“
“NO! I’ll never believe you after everything you’ve done!” the actress playing Katara replied with the anger very apparent in her voice.
Katara looked upon the scene in confusion knowing she never said those words to him. This is when she realized that it was only her and Zuko who knew what truly happened in the caves, but the words she said would come later on when he was begging for the group to forgive him. It hurt to think about the harsh threats and words she spoke to him on many occasions.
A few seconds into the angered words still being spoken by the actress, Katara heard Zuko let out a saddened sigh. Katara’s ears perked to the noise before she looked at him. His eyes were downcast and his eyebrows furrowed as he seemed dismayed by the direction this play had turned. It hurt her even worse to see Zuko this way now. He seemed to be just as affected by the words as much as she was. She didn’t want him to think that she still felt that way, so without hesitation, she placed her hand over his arm.
Zuko was shocked at first as his eyes immediately perked up and he quickly turned his head toward her. The confusion in his eyes was apparent in his slightly agape mouth as he looked at her. All Katara could do was smile in reassurance. “It’s okay… I don’t feel that way anymore. So many things have changed--” Katara whispered as she looked into his golden eyes.
Katara felt the heat rising to her cheeks as she scooted closer to him and wrapped her arms tightly around his waist as her head comfortably rested under his chin. Zuko smiled at her sudden affection as she whispered, “Especially between us…”
--
Okay, so let me all know who’s going and PLEASE tell me when you’re going to be there and if you guys would like to have a little gathering of Zutarians to hang out at the convention and cause some ruckus.

I love this concept. Its very plausible. Plausible indeed. Maybe the head shoulder leaning was a little to affectionate but the hand thing could definitely. Very cute.

Falsifying tags is NOT cool. I searched for 'Toph' and I got this. This is not Toph. Tag what it is, not what will get you more views.

I didn't put Toph in my tag. It took the word Toph from my description, so I can't really do anything about that.

You used her name once in a story that, mind you, doesn't have anything to do with her. And a story should be in its own deviation anyway. The description isn't a place for it if you're really looking for people to read it. I'm just tired of searching for things that aren't ship-related and getting assaulted with it. This one just happened to be the last straw.

I wasn't being speaking in a manner more vindictive than normal. I'm just not one to sugar-coat how I'm feeling. I was frustrated and annoyed when I made the comment, because it ALWAYS happens.

Oh nuu, you forgot Actress!Katara's gaudy makeup!
I think the last panel holds one of the prettiest Katara's I've seen you draw.
You're SO LUCKY you're going to CC I've wanted to go to one for two years now, but my parents won't let me!
I wanna meet all my Zutarian buddies in person.

Thanks so much. Yeah, it seems a lot of people like Katara in the last panel. O___o
Aw, you can't go? Darnit. But hey, maybe next year right? Because if I love it this year, I'm probably going to start going anually. It'll be too much fun not to.

I've liked your artwork for so long and I was debating if I should watch you or not. And this comic finally convinced me I should do that. Your drawing style is very interesting, and I love the small ficlets you add with almost every picture. You have great writing and drawing talent, keep up the great work, SetoAngel01.

I know! But I think by the time Comic Con rolls around, I think all the episodes will be seen because the DVD comes out the 29th, and you know some bozo is going to get it early and put it online and ruin it for everyone because I'm pretty sure that unless Nick has an Avatar marathon with the finale over one week in the first few weeks of July, I think the episodes will leak onto the internet before they're shown on Nick. But only time will tell...

Yeah, that's more than true... though
I personally won't be too depressed...
I can only watch avatar when it's online...
But really... they did not respect enough their own show...
It's sad. They're rushing the end while they were so careful before about the eps? ... and that damned book...
nargh it must be fake.

Very nice, as usual. And it's okay, I forgive you. I know school sucks, and that's why I have no intention of going to college.
When is the SDCC? I'm only about five hours or so from SanDiego. I might be able to make it, and yes, I'm all for causing some Zutara-based mayhem.
