Name: Ayala. No, really! That's my Hebrew name! :D

Location: Earth. Maybe.

Age: Eleventy-billion.

A little about myself: I'm a geek, a music addict, an Avatard, a daydreamer, an artist, and an aspiring Cinematographer/Photographer, and a Zumba instructor in training! Zumba is the best!

1) This is probably the only copy/paste thing you'll ever see in my profile: COPY AND PASTE THIS AT THE TOP OF YOUR PROFILE IF YOU WILL CONTINUE WRITING AVATAR FANFICTIONS, DRAWING AVATAR FAN ART, AND JUST BEING AN AVATAR: THE LAST AIRBENDER FANATIC EVEN AFTER IT ENDS. Although I didn't have much of a choice in this matter, since I didn't even start watching the series until it had already ended! Oh well. I'm still gonna do my part to keep the fandom alive!

I am a diehard Avatar: The Last Airbender fan. I ship the canon ships (and a metric assload of crack-ships as fanon), basically the only thing I don't like is Zuko/Katara. I prefer them as friends. Some of my favorite crack-ships include Kuei/Jun, Hakoda/Ursa, Jin/Teo, Toph/Teo, Ty Lee/Haru, Zuko/Jet (which is practically canon anyway!), Jin/Jet, Zhao/Long Feng, the list goes on and on.

Also I thought the series finale was perfect as-is, wouldn't change a thing. It'd honestly take less time to list the characters I don't like than the ones I do, since I like almost all of them. My least favorite characters are Jet and Yue, but they're still not too bad I guess. I fangirl Earth King Kuei like it's my job, hence why I'm writing a fanfic about him.

I do love Legend of Korra, but it ain't never gonna be as good as the original series. YEAH I SAID IT. Come at me bro.

2) My favorite game. In the whole world. Forever. Is CAUSE OF DEATH, baby! Best iOS game ever created! Obviously I ship Maltara, because it's practically a requirement, and how can you not??? Practically everyone in the game ships it, for crying out loud. And I ship BlaiseBird because they are too goddamn funny together (also hot, did I mention how sizzling hot they are as a couple? Because damn, son.) But I gotta say, my number one OTP for this game... is Amy/Kai. They are perfect for each other and no one will ever convince me otherwise. They just... I can't even... They have my favorite development arc of any pair of characters in the game, either platonic or romantic. They've come so far together since Kai was introduced in Volume 2. Like, remember when he was new and Amy couldn't stand him? And then they slowly become friends, and then they become best friends, and they're practically joined at the hip??? And Amy's the only one who understands Kai and Kai just adores Amy and thinks the world of her and uuugh they are so great.

3) I'm a massive TRON addict. I'm mainly a fan of the original 1982 film, but Legacy is pretty awesome, too. But I have to say it: Sorry, Sam Flynn, you will never be as cool as your dad. I ship Kevin Flynn/Ram as my OTP, but I like most of the pairings that the TRON fandom has to offer. The only one I can't stand is Flynncest. Gross, man.

4) I am also a huge fan of the movie The Thief and the Cobbler (the Recobbled version). It's a wonderful animated movie! It's like Aladdin, only ten times more creative and original. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=E62ibzd8WX4

I don't know if it counts as a webcomic, but Rufftoon's ATLA fancomic, the Water Tribe AU, is sheer genius. The art is professional-quality (literally! Rufftoon did storyboard art for the series) and the writing is fantastic. I know it's been around for a while, so most fans have probably seen it, but I'm going to link to it anyway for anyone who hasn't seen it yet. Here it is, go bask in its glory:
