Other Pairing Don'ts

I had decided to teach this class as there would be a giant amount of pairings here. There would be Maiko, Soko, Karu, Jetara, Sokkula, Ty Lokka, Taang (or Tophaang), Soph (or Tokka), Toko, Azula/Zhao, and of course, there would be a slight mention of incest fics and the crack pairings.

"Alrighty, this is the last of characters paired with characters. Let's discuss incest first. When I say incest, it means you are doing pairings like Zuko/Azula or Sokka/Katara." I told them. Katara seperated from Sokka and Zuko moved away. "Please, if you are going to do that, let's keep it clean. No smut please. Moving on to crack pairings. Again, keep it clean. Most people who support the crack pairings like Sokka/Zuko or Zhao/Ozai," Again, the given examples moved away, going to the women. "Want it to be funny and clean. No rape fics." A scattered collection of disgusted moans came out.

"Now, rules for the other pairings." I smiled and pointed to the board.

"1) No. Mary Sues or Gary Stus.
2) Keep the characters in-synch.
3) NO SEX/RAPE!
4) No AU/high school/movie crossovers." Everyone read.

"As you'll notice, most of this came from your other lessons. Thankfully, there haven't been to many awful fics in this department. But let me say this first off...SOKKA DOES NOT RAPE ANYONE AND NEITHER DOES ZUKO!" I screamed, slamming a ruler on the desk. "Remember, Mary Sues/Gary Stus crap the story out. Keeping characters in-synch isn't hard...just remember, Azula doesn't go down the street batting eyes and flirting with Earth Kingdom men. I believe we covered raping, as for sex. Imply it, but make them married at least. Don't have 14 year-old Katara with Jet...it's really gross. Remember, details are not appealing. And finally, the high school. Sweeties, we've heard it all. 'Katara is the new girl' and 'Jet is the bad boy' and 'Azula is the most popular' and to finish it...I'm not interested. It's overused and underthought. Try something else." I told them.


Me: Alright, that's it for the pairings. Next chapter will cover OC's with the characters and Mary Sues/Gary Stus.
