+1 on Tenzin and Korra, and I loved that Tenzin still had his own lessons to learn. I think my favorite thing about this series is how it portrays adult characters.

I've always been dissatisfied with the canon romance, though.

When Tenzin was in the spirit mist and realized he wasn't his father and that he had been trying to live up to a image of Aang, was great. I would watch a series that focused on Tenzin, Kya, and Bumi.

Yeah, canon romance in LoK has been bad. I get that they're teenagers, but the love triangle by the end had out stayed its welcome.

I felt that way even in AtLa, though. That's probably why I shipped everything when I was in that fandom and wrote a ton of (awful) fic.

I actually found the love triangle stuff pretty easy to ignore during these last few episodes. Like compared to the cool origin story and the kickass animation and the rest of the plot, it didn't really get that much screen time.

I wish Ginger hadn't kissed Bolin, though. My own headcanon aside (I was reading her as gay, yes, I know they'd never go there who cares), I would like for once to have a girl reject a guy and not change her mind. Oh she says she's not interested, well just KEEP PUSHING IT and then maybe one day you can impress her with your heroics and your muscles (not that this was his goal at all, he really was saving the day) and suddenly she'll love you, also what did Bolin plan on telling her when he showed up in Republic City married to Eska and Desna argh, dumbass.

That said, I love Bolin.

I liked the pairings in A:TLA. I know a lot of people disagree with me, haha.

The last four episodes, it was easy to ignore. It was during Mako centric episodes, when the love triangle reared its head.

Ginger kissing Bolin was the worst. It negated her telling him off and her right as a woman to do so. It made her into a money/power grubbing hussy trope, instead of a women who you know, just wasn't interested. I was so displeased with that.

I love Bolin too, bad season 2 track record aside. And I was totally down for Eska/Bolin/Desna at the beginning. Okay and maybe I still am.

I don't mind the pairings themselves (I ship pretty much everything), it was more the way they got together. It's just not the strongest part of the writing, in my opinion.

YES you hit the nail on the head with Ginger. They should've kept her as a background character tbph.

And I was totally down for Eska/Bolin/Desna at the beginning. Okay and maybe I still am.

Yeaaaaah, it was massively unhealthy and I'm still not sure what the writers were going for but I still want fic.

I get that. I like Zuko/Mai, but I think Mai would make a terrible queen. I can't see it. I do love Aang/Katara. I just think it's sweet. Suki/Sokka I also like, and I think Azula/Ty Lee would have been awesome. Even Ty Lee/Azula/Mai. I really want fic for them that explores visiting Azula in jail. They'd hate her, maybe pity her, but still be drawn to her.

It was sooooooooooo unhealthy. I was telling Bolin to run for the hills while hoping Eska would tie him down and have her (+ Desna) way with him.
