rating every zuko ship (cause that mf is shipped with everyone)
CLICKBAIT!!! this isn’t every zuko ship just the main ones i immediately lied lol. idk if any of these are hot takes or not but please don’t crucify me (might do a part 2 where it’s azula ships)
Jinko - Zuko/Jin
6/10
awwww it’s cute (for what it is)
and what it is was one singular date that was never really mentioned again
i really appreciate how jin is so unperturbed by zuko’s awkward angst and just genuinely likes him
howevvver she’s kinda one dimensional (as she’s only in like an episode) and i just don’t see this going anywhere longterm
less a ship, more a vehicle for zuko’s character development lol
Jetko- Zuko/Jet
3/10
jet being zuko’s first gay encounter is canon in my eyes
don’t ship them however cause i hate jet with the fire of a thousands suns
similar issues to jin as well where their interactions are extremely limited so personally have no clue how this could be a long term thing
Maiko- Zuko/Mai
5/10
i am so impartial on this ship it’s not even funny.
i get that it’s canon. i get that izumi looks suspiciously like mai so it’s endgame. i just don’t see HOW?? it feels as if the writers realised zutara was becoming popular and were like ‘OH SHIT WE GOTTA DEFUSE THIS SITUATION SOMEHOW’
their relationship is basically just mai being a cold asshole and zuko being an angry asshole and there’s no change or development between EITHER OF THEM
however when they’re cute they’re cute !!!!
‘i love zuko more than i fear you’ COLDEST LINE EVER
however again it’s like - you had a crush on him as a kid. he was BANISHED. you dated for like a month as teens. you argued the whole time. he left again- and shortly after you saved him from prison, but then you were imprisoned partly due to his actions. you get back together again, he becomes the ruler of a country, and then you’re surprised it’s isolating him/making him even more of an asshole???
on the other hand we as a society need to admit that zuko is weirdly possessive of her (ig that’s a positive if ur a booktok romance girlie but im not). like if i was mai i wouldn’t put up with that toxic shit either
at the end of the day, i honestly don’t care that they’re canon lol- but i think they’d probably best as a bitchy best friend duo
Zukaang - Zuko/Aang
1/10
not round here partner. not round here
my first issue is the age gap is objectively extremely weird if examined in canon. leaving it at that
i get that this is grumpy x sunshine in a way the other ships aren’t to me- but we’ve only ever seen these two characters interact with each other when there’s (again) A WEIRD AGE GAP
they are bros in the least homosexual way possible
the cherry on top of this situation is: isn’t aang the reincarnation of his great grandpa? isn’t that giving slight, uh, inc*st vibes??? imagine if people shipped korra and jinora isn’t that just WEIRD???
Zuki - Zuko/Suki
8/10
is this my most controversial take ???
i am a sucker for bodyguard x royal family dynamics guys
and the fact that this is girlboss x malewife is even BETTER
suki seems the most competent at handling his pissy ass in a way the other people on this list aren’t
like she’s real. she’s not sugarcoating his situation, BUT SHES COMPASSIONATE !!
i don’t like throuples typically but suzukki is even eliter than this, which removes the whole ‘going against the bro code’ element that arises from them being together
also i feel like if you haven’t read the comics this doesnt make sense At All so please do
-2 points for the lack of tangible reason to ship them lol
Zutara - Zuko/Katara
7.5/10
okay this one makes the most logistical sense to me within canon (solely examined as a zuko ship not overall)
it really seems as if they were gonna make this canon and swerved circa book 2
LIKE CMONNNN OG ENEMIES TO LOVERS WHERE THE GUY ACTUALLY HAS CHARACTER DEVELOPMENT AND ISN’T JUST EVIL? FIRE X WATER? ITS INTRIGUING
something about this makes me uncomfortable though. (despite the age gap which again a little weird)
something about katara potentially becoming the fire lady is so… icky. she’s a waterbender. the fire nation tried to systematically erase her kind. her mother is killed by the fire nation because they think she’s a waterbender. and katara…. what, becomes part of the royal family? it just seems wrong, and like something she wouldn’t be into
also i feel like their arguments would be a little too NUCLEAR. there’s like, a 50% chance of divorce
she deserves a better ending than that is all i’m saying
to paraphrase the hunger games: katara has plenty of fire herself. SHE NEEDS THAT DANDELION IN THE SPRING MAN
(i’m a kataang truther)
Zukka - Zuko/Sokka
9/10
my zuko related otp!!!
bros to lovers guys, where zuko falls first but sokka falls HARDER !!!
ik this will never be canon and im happy with that. i know there’s not even a whisper of romance between them in the show, but i just think it’s c u t e .
sokka (like suki) is very likely to call zuko out on his shit, but less likely to lose his own shit (like katara)
this in my heart of hearts is 10/10 however is still problematic in a similar way to zutara
his mother is killed by the fire nation and he (presumably) becomes consort ?
however though, i would still say it’s not as ruhroh as zutara bc firstly, sokka isn’t a waterbender, and secondly, ‘consort’ is a lot more open to interpretation than i think fire lady is. in my opinion a consort ≠ a fire lady, just like irl a consort ��� a queen. it kinda means he can still be ambassador to the southern water tribe/a leader of his own people, while just so happening to be married to the fire lord.
overall i can’t help but stan a friends to lover ship cmOn now

Just wondering, what ships are you comfortable for drawing NSFW art of? Can we request NSFW for any ships?
Hi,
So im literally new at this whole NSFW thing and probably wont be drawing anything too explicit (especially on tumblr). Plus I'm not posting art until september so if any requests do come in I will be ignoring them.
That being said the ships I am comfortable drawing NSFW are kyakoda and suzukki or some mix or Suki sokka and Zuko. This is literally because they all have adult art of them now. So in the comics they're all around 18 and over and while I hate their designs there are even older references of all 3 of them with the new movie and LOK.
Outside of atla I'm happy to dip my toes into shadowhunters and bbc Merlin.
We will see.

Toph: So how long have you liked Sokka, Sparky?
Zuko, nervously: What do you mean?
Toph: So a while then. What about you, Fans?
Suki: Attracted to him the moment I saw him, got a crush when he asked to be trained, and it grew from there.
Toph: And what about Sparky?
Zuko: What about me?
Suki: Boiling Rock, though it took a bit more time before I admitted it.
Toph: *addressing Zuko* Are you gonna admit your feelings?
Zuko:
Zuko: ... He charged me alone and hit me with a boomerang.
Toph: And for Suki?
Zuko: She and Sokka look a lot alike in Kyoshi gear.
Suki: You thought I was Sokka?
Zuko: No, I was attracted to both of you and thought I was seeing double. I still had a concussion from the boomerang and Sokka jabbing me with a glider. Uncle made me take time to recover after leaving the island, and I found I have a type.
Toph:
Suki:
Zuko:
Suki: Which is?
Zuko: People who look good in armor and can kick my butt, even when they can't.
Toph: Good to know.
*They return to their previous activities, though Zuko is much more awkward now*
~Later~
Toph, bursting through the door: I have AMAZING news!
Aang, surrounded by arts and crafts supplies: What‽ Did Zuko ask one of them out‽
Toph: No, but I have more for the wedding scrapbook! They need to wear armor! Zuko will be a blushing mess!
Katara, taking notes and helping Aang with the wedding scrapbook: I'll bring up the idea to Sokka. Make him think it's a random thought.
Mai, knee-deep in color pairings: I'll keep Zuko away. And Ty Lee can handle Suki.
Ty Lee, helping her: We'll just take them out for something fun!
Azula, making the invitations: Does anyone else think this whole club thing might be a bit much?
Toph:
Aang:
Katara:
Mai:
Ty Lee:
Azula:
Momo:
Appa:
Iroh:
Hakoda:
Bato:
Bumi:
Piandao:
Jeong Jeong:
Pakku:
Kyoshi Warriors:
King Kuei:
Bosco:
Everyone: Nah!
