Day 23 - A crazy love triangle/quadrilateral that worked out great?

Sokka/Suki/Toph (Avatar: The Last Airbender)



SORRY this is the only remotely relevant image google felt like giving me. CAN U FEEL SUKI'S EYES BURNING INTO YOUR SOULLLLL
Seriously, how many actual answers are there to this question XD  Well, considering that there was TECHNICALLY never any ship declared concrete re: Sokka, I think pretty much their entire B-story during "Sozin's Comet" makes this valid XDDDD

Day 24 - A crazy love triangle/quadrilateral that worked out badly?

Azula/Ty Lee/Mai (Avatar: The Last Airbender)



yeah, I just think this is cute/in-character X) ILU yamiloo 
 Once upon a time during the... whenever the fuck this series takes place, there was a band.  A band called the (Dangerous Ladies who) Beat-up People.  And with such hits as "I Wanna Stab Your Hand," "Can't Buy Me Love (But I Can)," "Hard Day's Night Wink Wink", and of course "Hello Goodbye Ba Sing Se," the trio of Azula McCartney, Mai Lennon and Ty Lee Starr took the Earth Kingdom by storm, village by village.  Often setting them on fire.

But then one day Mai Lennon found someone... called Zuko Ono.  And it was minimally characterized love at first sight, because there was too much going on in that season to focus on it.

A performing artist, Zuko Ono tried to bring his own vision to the Beat-Ups, but his avant-garde approach of benevolence and love and shit distanced Azula McCartney in particular, though Mai Lennon was particularly eager to implement his ideas into their group.

Frustrated, Azula McCartney knew that there was only one reasonable option-- murder Zuko Ono, something that Mai Lennon didn't respond well to.  But when things looked bleakest, Ty Lee Starr decided she hadn't gotten to do shit and decided to quit the band first.  By knocking Azula McCartney out on her pressure points but you really shouldn't look to much into that.

Ultimately, the band ended up going their separate ways-- several of which involved disappearing for the remainder of the show until appearing for five seconds in the epilogue-- and to this say millions of Beat-Ups fans still blame Zuko Ono for what may have been an inevitable break-up.

Still, in the end the Beat-Ups famously reunited for one final impromptu concert on the rooftop of the OH FUCK THIS

Day 25 - A pairing that was/would-be adorable, but could never work out?

Soifon/Kuukaku (Bleach)

What?  No art WHATSOEVER?  I'm seriously the only one that has even considered this? SIGH.
Honestly... this is my preferred pairing for Soifon, despite it basically being crack XD  Considering that A) Soifon/Yoruichi will never ever ever ever EVER happen and B) Soifon's too good for that fickle, infallible, emotionally retarded princess anyway (seriously, I'm pretty sure that their entire relationship is basically a yuri version of Mario/Peach), I've come to the conclusion that she needs to find a new lady friend who won't jerk her around all the damn time because she's too much of a bitch to be straightforward.

At first I thought of Soifon/Kuukaku partly as a joke, playing with the permutations of the lightly favored Yoruichi/Soifon/Kuukaku 'triangle'... but the more I thought about it... the more it occured to me that yeah, actually, they would make a pretty good couple.  I actually worked out an entire headcanon of them building a relationship during Yoruichi's century absence, Kuukaku finding something appealing in Soifon's steadfast loyalty and determination, and Soifon developing feelings for someone far less intangible than (in her eyes) Yoruichi had always been.

Nevermind that hey, now that Soifon's lost her arm (and had it replaced with Luke Skywalker's leftover Terminator parts), they'd have alot more in common! XD *shot*

However, this would never happen not only because they've never met (to my knowledge), but because implementing such a relationship would require time and character development and allowing the characters to grow organically, and that's just not as interesting as seeing which girl gets the 'prize' of ending up with the Blandest Animanga Protagonist in the Universe.  Also, those fight scenes aren't going to brutally pad themselves out.
