A/N: Hey all, just a VERY quick drabble. It took me about two minutes to type so it should take you even less time to read~

Anyway, I got this idea reading the new ATLA comic I just bought. Talk about life-changing, that book has made me the happiest. I honestly can't stress that enough.

Now, now, my fellow Zutarians - I am still among you who walk the earth in hordes a plenty. But i dare say, I LOVE Maiko. Truly. The moments captured in the show between the two are truly heartwarming. Even if her way of handling a situation is just to simply kiss and put it aside...that parts a bit annoying. I love me my Maiko, but not to worry - i OBSESS over the fiery, sizzling hot passion that is Zutara more.

Well...that's all. Review. Please? I die slowly when people simply read and move on, or fave and move on. I'm appreciative and grateful. But nothing means more to me than a review.
