Description Drawn for 's Zutara Week.

-TUESDAY-
"Electrifying"

Today on the Avatar Channel:
Grease!
Starring...

Katara as: Sandy Dumbrowski.
Zuko as: ....Danny Zuko.

NO, I AM NOT KIDDING. CHECK WIKIPEDIA IF YOU DON'T BELIEVE ME.

Cutest dance EVER: [link]

I got chills.
They're multiplyin'.
And I'm losin' control.
'Cause the power
You're supplyin',
It's electrifyin'!

You better shape up,
'Cause I need a man
And my heart is set on you.
You better shape up;
You better understand:
To my heart I must be true.

Nothing left, nothing left for me to do...

You're the one that I want
(You are the one I want) Ooh, ooh, honey...


EDIT: Well, fargh. Here I thought I was being so original, and I'm at least the third person to post a Grease crossover. Hunh...I'm the first one to notice the Zuko/Zuko thing, anyway!

It's so ironic because when I heard that the second theme was going to be 'electrifying', the song from Grease was the first thing that came to mind. I thought, "no one would make that connection!"
But apparently you did! Yay you!

Quite a lot of people did! I'm glad you like my version. It was fun to draw.

I'm not a Zutara shipper, though I respect it. This is sooooo freaking funny! And actually, I watched Grease about a month ago, heard the name, looked it up and fell off my chair, I was laughing so hard!
(also, I was at church camp and we were reading the bible and I came across a rather familier name: Keturah. get it? Keturah=Katara)

Haha, glad you like it! As a matter of fact, the concert hall in Sapporo, near my home, is called "KiTARA"...and the hall itself is abstractly shaped like a boat, with sweeping wooden slings along the walls to hold the seats, while the exterior hallways are decorated in blue and white, with glass and paint in water patterns. Uncanny, huh?

Wow. I always wondered where Bryan and Mike came up with character names. I think we could start some serious fan theories if people started wondering about names like I do...

TobuIshi In reply to blue-eyed-blonde12 [2008-07-09 01:19:22 +0000 UTC]

You know, it's probably irrelevant, but there's a word in Japanese that sounds like "Sokka" and means "to tempt fate". (Other similar-sounding words mean "cheap snacks" and "O RLY".)

And Aang means "peace"...or "the coming peace" depending on what kanji you use.

What you talking bout "irrelevant"? That totally goes with my question about character names! I'm gonna write these down and then...ok I don't know what then, but I'll figure out something.

That's great! My favorite scene of the song was when they were dancing in the fun house. You and I had the same idea, here's my version. [link]

TobuIshi In reply to CynicalMuse [2008-07-09 00:50:35 +0000 UTC]

Very cute! Were you as tickled as I was to realize they wear those slinky black numbers in this dance, instead of the usual awful giant-collared shirt and poodle skirt?

CynicalMuse In reply to TobuIshi [2008-07-09 06:33:50 +0000 UTC]

Yes! That was awesome because it was so hot literally, so much black spadex. O.o

I was waiting for someone to do this. When I heard today's word was electrifying I immediately thought of Grease. But, since I'm in the writing category, and do not draw Katara or Zuko well, I didn't have the opportunity for such. But seriously, you read my mind.

'Gotta step up, because I need a man...'

Love Grease. Love it. Instant fave because you're awesome like that.

Thank you! I thought about doing the writing category, but...well, I'm lazy, and I've already got a few fics I'm trying to finish by the 14th. So, art it is!

It's a fine movie! I think I do too many movie crossovers in this account (KILL BILL, House of Flying Daggers, STAR WARS...), but I couldn't pass this one up.

TobuIshi In reply to Anna-Rose [2008-07-09 00:47:18 +0000 UTC]

Hah! His hair turned out a little too big, I think, but I'm glad you like it! Their faces were sort of a challenge for some reason. Meh.

Yay that is so awesome! I actually made my whole family swear off watching the movie (despite it being one of my parents mutual favorites) because I noticed Danny's last name My little sister and I would always get giggly and start taking notes and assigning all the characters an Avatar counterpart and then debated the likelihood that it was entirely deliberate on Mike and Bryan's part. Excellent interpretation of the theme

Hahaha, another great original idea for Zutara Week! Man, why can't I come up with something? XD I love how they look, especially Katara's legs, wheeee!

TobuIshi In reply to Irrel [2008-07-08 17:06:57 +0000 UTC]

*snort* Yeah, original, except it turns out, now that I look around, there are at least two other people in the Z Week who posted Grease crossovers in the last hour, while I was finishing this. XD Whoops...well, you win some, you lose some?

(Katara's legs make me happy, too. I took the pose and background directly from a freezeframe of the movie--I /love/ the moment when they both saunter down those steps in perfect sexy unison!)

Zuko's hair... xD

It's very cute. Not sure how I feel about the white lines between the colouring and the lines, but it sort of adds something to the picture I guess.

Dance dance.

TobuIshi In reply to CeruleanSan [2008-07-08 16:56:05 +0000 UTC]

To be honest, those white lines were an accident with the lineart. But I liked it enough to leave it that way! ^_^
