(Anonymous) 2024-02-11 07:46 am (UTC)(link)It's about the tropes. Fire x Water(Ice) is a tried and true trope with many subtropes that everyone knows and a lot of people love. Fire x Air isn't really that much of a thing tropewise so it's less interesting to most shippers.
It's the same reason those same people tend to put Aang and Toph together. Earth x Air might not as famous as Fire x Water, but it's still opposite elements.

Then again, I never cared one way or another about Zutara. My fire/water ship was Azula/Sokka and my preferred Katara ship was Jet LMFAO.
But anyway, I just know thatf I ever start reading ATLA fanworks, I'll go for Zukaang. Or Azula/Ty Lee...

(Anonymous) 2024-02-11 08:27 am (UTC)(link)And even before that, like... there's this contrast in the ways that they're both living in the shadow of a father who feels larger than life-- Zuko who was exiled by his and struggles for approval he'll never get, Sokka who had to stay behind and be the man of the house (/tribe) when his left, struggling to live up to the IDEA of who his father needed him to be. Zuko's sometimes-life-and-death level contentious relationship with his little sister (and his feelings about how she's The Favorite) vs Sokka's relationship with HIS little sister, with endless squabbling but a complete willingness to fight to protect each other (but his feelings about how she has special powers he doesn't).
