Thank you. I think you're right about Zutara. It's politically about the worst thing Zuko can do, so it really says "Screw the rules, we have love!" Whereas Maiko says the much less viscerally satisfying but utterly sweet "I love you, so I'm willing to put up with bullshit rules for you." It's a good example of how being "meant to be" at least politically can make things even harder and more complicated.

Of course, secretly, I just like it because it's dorks in love.
