Kataang Week 2023 Day 5 - Secretly Dating

I think they would like to keep their relationship a secret from the group at first... however briefly.

Kataang week 2023

Day 4 Cultural differences/cultural exchange

Referenced from Zach and Maes' hug during their comic con revolution! Ont 2023. Was such a cute moment, and I wanted to redraw them as older Kataang as seen in the latest image from the upcoming movie!

Love that they were wearing corresponding/matchy color accessories (katara yellow sash and Aangs blue armbands 😭👌💖✨)

The background is of air temple island. Drawing buildings are not my forte, so it's not up to standards 😅 but fun nonetheless! 👍🎉

Chibi Kataang for kataang week 2023

Hey everyone! For the first prompt of Kataang week 2023 @rms10 and I have created a short comic.

The story is done by RMS, and the art is done by me.

The comic is still a work in progress, but we wanted to at least give you all a sneak peek. We will try our best to create the first panel(s) this week, but we cannot promise how fast progress will be.

Have a great rest of kataang week 2023, and see you in the next update!

Chapter 1

Rain pours down on Aang, covering him and the bundle in his arms in sheets of water.

The blinding wrath of the Avatar State fades from his spirit. Aang is all that’s left—Aang, the last airbender, clasping the body of the girl he loves.

Katara.

Her name is a whisper upon his lips, the syllables breaking with a grief that splits him down to his very core.

“Katara,” he sobs, aloud this time.

He bends a flame into his open palm, a flickering, fitful light in the midnight rain. Katara’s head rests in the crook of his elbow. The rest of her body lies in his lap, balled up against him.

The fingers of his other hand trace a trembling line down her temple. Dark hair plasters to her skin, covering her face like strands of seagrass. Carefully, as if brushing kelp from the cheekbones of a fragile treasure, he sweeps her hair to the side.

Katara looks like she’s only asleep. But then the raindrops that fall on her face, water streaming over her cheeks and down her chin, should awaken her.

Yet the lines of her eyelashes don’t flutter or blink open. Her eyes remain shut.

Late entry for @kataang-week Day 2: Injured

Rating: T

Word Count: 10.3k

Summary:

Katara reached up and took his face in her hands, felt him soften under her touch. She craned her neck up to press her lips to his cheek, right where a teardrop was rolling down. “I couldn’t let you die either,” she murmured, “not when I could do something to save you.” But Aang drew back at her words, his eyes downcast. “But if I had just been paying attention, if I had just noticed what was going on, you wouldn’t have needed to.” He raised his eyes to hers, and in them she could see the shame, the guilt, the self-blame. “If I had just been a better Avatar,” he said in an anguished whisper, “you wouldn’t have gotten hurt.” And in that moment, she didn’t see the Avatar she knew him to be. Instead, she saw a fifteen-year-old—a fifteen-year-old who shouldn’t even know he was the Avatar, a fifteen-year-old forced from an era of peace to fight in a time of war, a fifteen-year-old with shoulders too slim to bear the weight of the sky and hands too young to hold the weight of the world. - Being the Avatar is a burden as heavy as the weight of the world. But as long as Katara is alive, she swears that Aang will never have to carry it alone. Written for Kataang Week 2023 Day 2: Injured.

Kataang Week 2023 Day 7 - Reunion

Kataang Week - Day 8

Costume Party - AO3 | FF

"Hey guys, there's a costume party! We're invited! Get ready. It starts at 6 o'candle. You get to accompany... Detective Wang Fire." At this declaration, he whipped his fake beard and detective hat out from behind his back. Katara groaned. Toph shrugged. "I'll be the Blind Bandit. I'm sure my belt is here somewhere." Katara and Aang glanced at each other. This would be the first party they'd be attending together as a couple so they didn't want to miss it, but two hours was definitely short notice. "Oh, I've got an idea for me! Be right back!" Katara cried as she hopped up and ran into.. Aang's room.

Kataang Week, Day 5: Power Couple

Eff Around and Find Out: Remember that whole "Looks like a cinnamon roll, but could actually kill you" meme? Yeah, double that!

Done on commission for @kataang-week by the incredible @hippano! As always, thank you so much for the wonderful art!!!!

[Image Description: Digital artwork of Aang and Katara as adults. Aang has a beard and is dressed in non-formal Air Nomad attire. Katara is dressed in a Water Tribe dress, with arm bandages and her grandmother's betrothal necklace. They are both facing out toward the viewer, smiling, as Katara waterbends and Aang airbends. The water fills up the lower part of the screen and it looks as if Aang and Katara are bending their elements right at the viewer. /end ID]

@kataangisforlovers commissioned me for a little contribution to @kataang-week, so here they are for Day 4 getting completely blitzed on cactus juice! (but safely not in the desert)

The poses and the colors on this were so much fun!!

[Image Description: Digital artwork of a teenage Aang and Katara, dressed in summer Air Nation and Water Tribe outfits, respectively. They are shown outdoors in front of a stone railing, with a potted cactus in the background. Aang is on one knee, his head tilted back as he lifts his arms overhead to pour the last few drops of cactus juice into his open mouth. Katara is sitting on the ground opposite him, her legs stretched out in front of her. She is grinning as she watches him and wiggles her arms as if trying to waterbend the cactus juice. Another slice of cactus sits on the ground beside her with a tiny pink drink umbrella. /end ID]
