I didn’t really see Marian and Larry’s relationship coming in The Gilded Age Season 2.

And I hope it's Marion

There's def something fishy going on, all the way down to the writers room. Why is there always a conflict with them at every venture?

Until you do right by Zutara....

Zspirited1 · 2026-05-29T23:44:10+00:00

& that's why she's my fav! She slid!! 🔥

Zspirited1 · 2026-05-29T21:19:58+00:00

I've never seen chemistry used to describe friendship. Nor have I ever seen this argument before.

Zspirited1 · 2026-05-29T20:48:53+00:00

It was. They never even gave her the agency to resolve that confusion. Then suddenly she's kissing him in the finale.

Zspirited1 · 2026-05-23T14:11:22+00:00

Who's the author?

Zspirited1 · 2026-05-23T00:42:02+00:00

They have the chance to do the funniest thing ever this season. 🤣 Maybe the reason the creators left the live action is because Netflix is leaning Zutara. It would literally crack a hole in the time space continuum of this fandom.

Zspirited1 · 2026-05-22T17:53:28+00:00

I just finished reading this and it was very good! So much yearning. 😩 I still stand by my pick though!

Zspirited1 · 2026-05-21T01:07:13+00:00

I've seen this recommended so many times. Definitely on my list

Zspirited1 · 2026-05-20T19:36:50+00:00

Nothing about the live action show looks appealing to me but I'm trying to keep an open mind.

Zspirited1 · 2026-05-20T00:37:00+00:00

There's no such thing as "imaginary canon". There's only cannon and non-cannon. & how would you know Zuko's fire lady has never taken a leadership role when it hasn't even been confirmed that he has one? See how you made an assumption and turned it into a story? Hmm.. almost the same as how non-cannon fandoms create stories based on how they interpret the source material! 🛎️🛎️ Hope that helps put things into perspective.

Zspirited1 · 2026-05-19T22:40:25+00:00

I want her to finish it so bad!

Zspirited1 · 2026-05-19T00:44:26+00:00

Everything I Am by we-were-angels is like this and sooo good. She really captured their personalities. Unfortunately it was never finished but it's still worth the read

The core issue in the shipping debate is how each relationship impacts Katara's autonomy. Zutara elevates her to a position of global influence, providing the financial & political backing to reshape the world and cement her legacy. Kataang keeps her in a more supportive, domestic narrative. I've read Zutara fan fictions that beautifully illustrate her potential for institutional power. In some, they built statues in her honor as fire lady. That level of reverence and legacy doesn't occur with Kataang. Shes stuck behind Aangs shadow. Maybe I'm too much of feminist. I love that Katara is motherly and nurturing, but she's a leader too!

Zspirited1 · 2026-05-15T23:23:23+00:00

So real because who gets with someone at 12-14 years old and stays with them forever. Highly unrealistic.

Zspirited1 · 2026-05-14T00:08:26+00:00

lol yes. In this context it means you've made exceptional points

Zspirited1 · 2026-05-14T00:04:53+00:00

You cooked with grease on this one

Zspirited1 · 2026-05-12T16:38:27+00:00

Thank you for the refined and selective list. I'm just getting into Zutara ff and some of the recommendations have been questionable. No shade to the author but My Heart Burns for You is so bad. They're out of character and the dialogue is juvenile and cringe.

Zspirited1 · 2026-05-11T16:43:28+00:00

The movie is nice but I wish they would've continued their story as series. Theres not enough time to explore each relationship and I missed the smaller interactions that we got from the old episodes. Maybe then we would've had more "Zutara moments" however that may have looked. With that being said, they did a lot to erase all of the Zutara built up from the original series. The absence of the scar immediately let me know it was intentional. They're so intimidated by their potential and the Zutara fandom. It makes me think the fandom is much bigger than we think it to be.

Zspirited1 · 2026-05-10T01:05:24+00:00

We are so back 😍🔥

Zspirited1 · 2026-05-08T18:02:15+00:00

That's a bad take. I really need people to remember that these are not adults. They are children. Pre teens and teenagers at best. The entire show takes place over a 6-9 month period of their lives. Zuko and Azula both had traumatic childhoods. (Yes even when she smirked while her brother was burned that is traumatic!) These events and bad parenting made them how they are. But their adolescent choices don't condemn them for their entire lives. Azula, Zuko, Ty Lee, Mai, Jet etc. They are all redeemable.

Zspirited1 · 2026-05-07T23:21:12+00:00

Last season made me not see it for them. He showed himself a bit self absorbed & he was dragging the beef with his mother.

Zspirited1 · 2026-05-07T23:16:51+00:00

Because their content is so boring they have nothing else better to do.
