avatar and multifandom fic recs
I've decided to re-watch all three seasons of Avatar: The Last Airbender, which explains the recent spate of A:TLA fics on my ff.net faves list. I've always been 'meh' on the subject of ships in Avatarverse, but I'm really starting to hanker for Zuko/Katara at the moment. Let's see if I'll swing back to Zuko/Mai before my brain decides to latch on to Zuko/Mai/Katara as an OT3. (Oh, wait...too late! Damn.)
Also, I've been reading so much fic over the break, I've almost hit the 300-mark on my ff.net 'favorite stories' list. xD And that's not even counting the ones I've read that aren't hosted at there...as well as the ones I've read but haven't favorited.
My eyes are tired. T____T
