One day I will not ramble about Avatar. Today is not that day.
(All the reasons boil down to 'because I won't allow it' - I think Mike and Bryan could show me her bloody corpse and I'd go, 'we have necromancers in this world, right? Also, my mother never even considered the idea that Suki was dead, which I take as a good sign.)
But I had a point. It hit me recently, that Azula has all those Dai Lai under her sway - Dai Lai who are quite practiced at brainwashing. What if the reason Suki doesn't mention Sokka anymore is because she doesn't remember him?
You could have a totally awesome meeting where Sokka is like, "Suki! Thank god you're alright!" and Suki's like, "Back off. Who the hell do you think you are?"
Which leads to much angst and sorrow.
(And since I'm in the middle of writing 'what I think happened to Suki' we're sure to find out this Friday, before I have a chance to finish my fic. At this point, I don't know whether to hope I find out what happened to her this week, or hope I don't.)
Now, to segue to smut instead, before I actually watched Avatar, I floated the idea that this might be a show I could write girl-on-girl for, with all the great female characters running around.
So, I was reading this fic that had Toph in a lesbian relationship, which made SO much sense to me (and then I worried I believed that because she's nontraditionally feminine and if that said bad things about me and my social constructed paradigms about sexuality) and then I saw a really cute pic of Katara and Toph kissing and you know, that would be a very interesting relationship.
(This is a tangent: I was talking to mother about this, as we paired up the people in Avatar the way they should be - needless to say, Zuko is going to get a damn fine Fire Lady, and Toph is going to be queen and/or get Haru. Or a lesbian relationship. Anyway, the point is... *tries to remember point* Okay, I've got it. So, we're talking about Toph and lesbianism, and my mother mentions, that when she first say Toph she thought Toph was going to be "a rival for Katara."
Me: "I don't know if they'd do that. You know, have an actual lesbian relationship on a children's cartoon. But it would be pretty awesome if they did."
Mom: "I meant a rival for Katara regarding Aang."
Me: "Oh.")
However, what I actually want to talk about was Azula. Now, smilaraaq has written/mentioned that if anyone in Avatar wants to top, it would be Azula, which is just blatantly true. HOWEVER, I often find that having the obviously dominant character in a couple top can be... predictable, you know? So then I thought, who would be topping Azula? Well, it obviously wouldn't be Mei, because topping Azula would take effort and, you know, having a pulse, but Ty Li? Can't you just imagine her using her circus freak acrobatics and pressure points to have her way with Miss Thing?
Randomly: you know how on a molecular level glass is a liquid? I wonder if Katara could do fun things with glass, or if that would more be Toph's milieu because glass comes from sand.

You forgot Sokka/Yue... Was it deliberate?
I actually saw a fanart that had Pimp!Sokka (and why is it pimp and not player or lothorio or casanova? Because pimp brings up some bad imagery to me). And I really can't see Sokka/Azula. Like, at all. If they were trapped in a bubble... Azula would have to rape him to get out.
However, I would extend that the Water Tribe children seem to get lots of love. Where have Sokka and his afformentioned loves, and then you have Katara and Aang, Haru, Jet, and Zuko. Am I forgetting anyone?
*relishes the image of Katara and Toph working together to kick Azula's ass with liquid glass.* That is a damn nice image.
Re: You forgot Sokka/Yue... Was it deliberate?
I see the TophAang more during the episodes where Toph is teaching him to earth bend, and it's more of a one sided Aangcrush, because Toph, to me, has that childish "I'm going to pick on you super heavy because I like you" thing going on.
And I do like Casanova!Sokka better than Pimp!Sokka. I think we should use that term more. I just used Pimp! because it's such a cultural term nowadays...Casanova lost it's charm (Which sucks, because Casanova was damn awesome.) Azula would rape Sokka to get out of the bubble, and then Sokka would have to have therapy with good 'ole Dr. Suki.
The Water Tribe children are just really damn pretty/popular. Good for them!
Isn't it just a great image? That, and because it would be imperfect glass and there would be air bubbles with trapped gas, if they threw it at Azula in the hardened state and she hit it with fire and/or lightning, it would explode resulting in some serious shrapnel.
Re: You forgot Sokka/Yue... Was it deliberate?
And you're right, Toph would totally have that, 'I'm going to pick on you because I like you' thing down pat. Poor Aang. Toph would be/is such a shock to him after Katara's gentleness.
I say we change the term to Casanova!Whoever. It sounds way more romantic and sexy than 'pimp.' (Plus, I remember the moment when I was realizing I wanted to 'pimp' a series to my mother, and I actually had to ask my flist what verb we used for that action before the slang 'pimp' came along. And the answer is 'strongly reccomend).
It's the blue eyes. No one can resist a hot brunette with blue eyes.
Ah.... Azula burned and bleeding... what a sweet, sweet thought that is. ^_^
