Ok, the headcannon of Eddie liking Chrissy since middle school, cool buuuttt what about
Chrissy having a crush on Eddie since middle school. That middle school talent show, yeah she definitely remembers! She remembers that sweet boy who saw that she was so nervous and who made her laugh and was funny and cute and played guitar! So cool. Then he left for high school and he was always in the back of her mind and on the first day of freshman year. Boom! There he was standing on a lunch table, just like that, the crush came back! ( I imagine at this point, Eddie has decided to be true to himself and wear the title of Freak like armour. )
He was cute in middle school but highschool. He was hot, a junior and he had long hair and wore leather and looked like everything her parents hated and yet he looked so sweet with garret and Jeff. Freshman like her. While she had made the cheer squad, she was still a freshman and not very high on the totem pole.
So while the rest of the girls talk about Jason or even Steve, all Chrissy can think about is Eddie Munson. Mrs. Chrissy munson was all over her diary. It's the end of the year and Chrissy has finally worked up the nerve to talk to him. See if he remembers and thank him for being so kind to her. Maybe they can become friends and who knows, maybe more even someday. Except he's talking to some junior girl who looks like a woman and is dressed like him. ( I can't imagine Eddie was the only metal fan in highschool, seriously. Or it was the beginning of his drug dealing.)
She's so pretty and thin, just like her mother was telling her about her own high school years. Suddenly Chrissy thinks why he would want to be friends with her. A freshman who looks like she's in middle school. Eddie is gonna be a senior, and is so cool compared to her, a little freshman who is still going through puberty. So when her tells about a rumor that Jason is gonna ask her out, she thinks why not. Yet she still can't help when her eyes suddenly wander over to that table at lunch or in the halls. Eddie Munson who has no idea she even exists, is her What If?
Seriously, you expect me to believe no one liked Eddie, he had tattoos and wore leather and denim. Yeah he was nerd but he was in a band! Maybe he wasn't the boy who you brought home to mom but he was definitely the one you were daydreaming about doing things with. Hmmmm😈

After ONE YEAR I can finally show you this piece. It's based on Romeo+Juliet movie and Spanish christian elements, clearly inspired by Rosalia's MV "aunque es de noche". A mix between stranger things, 90's films and my Spanish roots ✨

@zutaramonth Day 3: After all these years ||
I just love the idea of them learning to dance together and being so very cute and awkward about it at first 🥺💕.
Brief backstory:
Although they were busy preparing for the war, they still needed time to have fun and de-stress so a small feast with music and dancing seemed like a good idea. Zuko and Katara were pushed to spend time together by the rest of the Gaang because they've had enough of the weird distance between the two, brought by brewing feelings that both weren't sure about acknowledging yet. At this point, they've already resolved most of their issues and were on track to becoming really good friends until the 'complication' happened.
Feelings can be ass sometimes fr.
Somehow, what started as a one time, peer pressured, clumsy bonding attempt between two hyperaware-of-each-other teenagers ended up lasting longer than expected. Excuses would be made to continue dancing together because once the initial awkwardness has passed, they found that it was actually quite relaxing (especially for two usually hot headed people) just going through the motions and communicating with looks and gentle touches what they had zero courage to say out loud. Both were also restless and couldn't always spend their hours training so dancing felt like fair game. A very pleasant and completely platonic way of passing the time with a good friend, or at least that's what they told themselves.
Then the war ended, feelings were finally acknowledged and returned now that there was enough time to reflect and actually do something about it and time continued to pass. No matter the changes and busy schedules that came with adulthood and bearing the responsibilities of ruling/helping rule a nation, some things remained constant. Though they never broadcasted it, the Gaang knew that Katara and Zuko would sometimes be found at night just swaying in each other's arms while they quietly talked about their day. It became a tradition - their way to bond and reconnect after a busy day. It was also muscle memory at this point and something they would naturally drift to doing when the opportunity arose. If they weren't training, lounging and drinking tea or walking arm in arm along the courtyard for a stroll, they'd be dancing.
Ofc the dances varied. Most of the time it was simple, intimate, and didn't require much energy. It was during festivals and other special events where they'd let loose and swap partners with their friends. They definitely would've taught each other's traditional dances too. Most of the time they stuck to couple dances though.
The two would then make it to their golden years surrounded by friends and family. In this au, Aang, Sokka and Suki are definitely still alive and kicking and they, together with Toph, would reminisc about the good old days and pat themselves in the back for helping get Zuko and Katara together. They would've gotten together eventually anyway but the Gaang just sped up the process and the credit for starting the whole dancing tradition goes to them. Aang isn't afraid to admit that he and whoever he married in this au also partake in said tradition; Sokka and Suki would do so every now and then but they much prefer exchanging swords as their love language; Toph is indifferent and much prefers just sitting back and letting them enjoy themselves.
This is way over due but I'm glad I was able to finish it. Will sadly be the only prompt I'll be able to do for zutara month bc life threw a wrench and made me too busy, though I'm still interested in making the other prompts at a later date. /N
Picturing Chrissy recording all the small moments of Eddie with their child on a little camera, then saving them in a little box for when they’re older is making me SOB!
