Crazy What You Could've Had

Yeah, I basically did this two days ago, but it's different, it's character specific. Plus, I'm cleaning just about everything in the house, including my computer, but I think I have ants under my keyboard or behind my bed. Or both. *shudders*


1) Comment with one of my fandoms or a character or two from that fandom.
2) I'll answer with one or two of my unpopular opinions about that fandom or character.

1.) I find him one of the more boring characters on Avatar, in particular because he doesn't really have a dark side, and I don't find that interesting. (I don't think the Avatar State counts, because it's something that imposed on him.

2.) I really hate the 'you must give up what you love to control you power trope', and I hope that M & B don't go that route, regardless of how easy that might make shipping Katara and Zuko. Also, I think that at this point, his chakra is blocked because of what Azula did physically, and not the fact that he's insanely in love with Katara.

I think having the chosen one being this easy going kid is actually a good storytelling more - it's just a character type that does nothing for me, and since chosen one characters are, by their very nature, hard to pull off (for me, your milage may vary), I like having 2 character tropes I'm not usually thrilled about in one. ^_^ Leaves me free to fangirl all the great characters around Aang.
