One True Pairing Ship: Hmm I don't know that I really have one. Although...
Canon Ship: Zuko/Mai. Oyez. I love both characters, and they have such a fabulous relationship. I liked them before "The Boiling Rock", but that episode pretty much cemented my love for them forever.
"If this happens I'll stab my eyes out with a spork" Ship: Sokka/Toph. Not that I don't love their dynamic, I do, but it's not one that I think could really stand up to a romance. Even if she was a little sweet on him for a while there.
"You are one sick bastard" Ship: Toph/Iroh. I mean, yes, he could be old enough to be her grandfather, so on that level it's squicky, but their conversation was one of the high points of the series. Maybe I "ship" them as having a close personal bond?
"I dabble a little" Ship: Zuko/Katara. Just enough of the right kind of interaction in canon to make me see them as an interesting possibility, not enough for me to tip over into full-blown shipping.
"It's like a car crash" Ship: Azula/Ty Lee. An awesome, giddy, snarky, fiery, leapy car crash.
"Tickles my fancy but not sold just yet" Ship: Sokka/his harem. Sokka is awesome, mind you, but does he *really* need to pick up a new chick everywhere he goes? I do like him with Suki, though.
"Makes no canon sense but why the Hell not" Ship: Aang/Ty Lee. I don't know, something about this just really appeals to me, for all that they never really interacted in canon. I think they'd have a lot of fun.
"Everyone else loves it but I just don't feel it" Ship: Aang/Katara. I freely admit that this comes down to the age issue for me, even if Aang isn't exactly your average 12-year-old. I do buy that he's in love with her; I'm just not sure that she'd return his feelings just yet. In five years, sure.
"When all is said and done" Ship: The gAang and their friends, kicking back in the tea shop, enjoying the world they've created. Maybe not a ship exactly, but I find it profoundly satisfying.
'Ware spoilers, anyone else reading this!
