My cover of Chemtrails Over the Country Club by Lana Del Rey but I rewrote the lyrics from Katara's POV. Feel free to use in edits, but please credit me if you do! I plan on making a full video to the song when I get the chance. 💙🧡
Lyrics under the read more!
I'm on the run with you, my sweetheart
Everything’s wrong, contemplating scars
Under the ashes over the land we love
Wearing my hurt like it’s a necklace
Me and my brother, hopeful and restless
Under the ashes over the land we love
Take out your anger and all of your pain
We are your family, the sun after rain
Sweetie, what's your deal?
My moon is rising, my battle’s not won
You crave play, you crave fun
Well, I don't care what they think
We race against time, against all odds
I'm not unleashed or unburdened; I'm unready
I'm on the run with you, my sweetheart
Everything’s wrong, contemplating scars
Under the ashes over the land we love
Wearing my truth like it’s a necklace
Me and my best friend, hopeful and restless
Under the ashes over the land we love
Meet you for practice at shallow wading pools
We laugh about nothing as the nighttime gets cool
It's beautiful how this deep normality settles down over me
I'm not adverse or indifferent; I'm still not ready yet
You're in the wind, I'm in the water
Nobody's son, nobody's daughter
Watching the ashes over the land we love
The push and pull, your arms around me
I float and fall, but your love grounds me
Diminished ashes over the land we love
My love, my love
Now that you’re here, I’m never lonely
Dancing in caves, I want you only
Like when we were kids under blue skies and clouds above
Welcome to the Zutara fandom. They've been like this for nearly 20 years. No exaggeration. Some of these people are in yjeor 30's, maybe older? And still act like the children they were when they first watched the show. Sorry you had to go through this, a lot us who like Kataang, Aang, Mai or even just don't worship zuko and zutara have been where you are now.
Quite the name they made for themselves huh.
I genuinely was so shocked to discover this amount of hate when I rejoined the fandom a few months ago. And now I realize these people spend more time in the anti Kataang and anti Maiko tags than in the actual Zutara tag…I find it kinda sad. Especially when like you said, these are grown adults who are spending their time hating on a fictional 12 year old and anyone who dares to disagree with them.
I truly have no problem with Zutara shippers, I really see the appeal and wish them all the best. But this is just some sort of fanaticism. Cause they see their ship as the only right one and will attack anyone who dares to disagree with them.
And it’s the hypocrisy that’s killing me, cause even if you bring up valid points, they will not see logic. Forgiving Zuko for 2 and half seasons of wrong doing (which I did too, I love Zuko) but crucifying Aang for making 3 mistakes because he’s freaking 12? And I’m not even going to speak on their hate towards Mai, that’s just filled with misogyny.
I don't know who needs to hear this but just because Aang doesn't always agree with Katara and has his own opinion and morals, it doesn't make him unsupportive (Reference to "The Southern Raiders" episode, that's a Katara episode but for some reason people use it to bash Aang)
He literally has a brain for a reason, to have his own thoughts and morals, just because he thought Katara was wrong, ir doesn't mean he doesn't understand her trauma. Aang understands grief better than anyone. He's the only survivor of the air nomad genocide, so shut up.
Did Aang annoyed me in that scene? Yes, but that's because I let emotions control the way I think, Aang was logical and much more mature than me, Katara and Zuko combined.
He was scared she will do something she'll regret, but after seeing she can't be convinced to back down, he let her do her thing. Aang didn't try to stop Katara because he didn't want to be friends with a killer. Wrong. He just was concerned about her.
