+ OTP for them.
+ Runner-up pairing.

+ OTP for them.

Suki/Sokka. I like how they make each other a better person, and their inevitable problems of managing a relationship across nations and cultures are interesting. I also like how they aren't predestinted lovers or childhood friends. If not for a very odd and specific set of circumstances, they never would have met -- or ever met again, for that matter.

+ Runner-up pairing.

Suki/Zuko. Yes, I know, a big surprise coming from me. ^_^ They're very handsome together and, of all the non-FN characters, Suki is the most (faintly) plausable as someone who could be more than a mistress. While she's not nobility, she's also not a water/earthbender. Their combined warrior upbringing and sense of duty/honor gives them a connection.

+ Honorable mention(s).

Suki/Ty Lee. I've come to think of Suki as basically the "good" version of Azula. If the fire princess hadn't been a noble or a bender, she'd probably have grown up into someone like Suki (if a bit more clever). Prideful, not good about taking criticism, but still a charismatic leader and skillful warrior. With that perspective in mind, I can see Suki/Ty Lee as being a healthy, non-crackfic/darkfic version of TyZula.

Suki/Aang. For reasons explained when I answered about him.

+ Crack pairing(s).

Suki/Sokka/Toph. Mostly just for teh hotness. I think Sokka would probably be the hardest sell on a OT3. The Water Tribe strikes me as being very protective of what it considers family.

Suki/Katara. On the rare end of the femslash spectrum, although that's probably because Katara doesn't have the fandom bicycle appeal that Sokka and Zuko do. I think that the Kyoshi Island lifestyle would be uber-attractive to Katara, and Katara's innate toughness to be warrior would appeal to Suki.

+ Ship everyone else seems to like, but I don't. (alternately: ship I like that everyone else seems to hate)

Sukka gets a lot of hate. Partly due to people thinking Sokka should be with Toph. (On a side note, my big problem with Tokka is that people generally write her like she's an eternal twelve year old.) Partly also due to the fact Suki doesn't feature a lot of the show and has little development on-screen.
