Well that was horrifying. I love it.

I like this theory. Very dark. Its a wonderful reason as to why the Northern Tribe split the two teachings.

so true

Wow, this is exactly what I was looking for.

Wahhh. Thought about this when the bloodbending episode came out, but ... sucking water from the joints. That is a good one.

Very well done! I've often thought that the master healers of the Northern Water Tribe are actually Quite Aware of bloodbending and what destruction their style of waterbending can wreak on the human body-because really, working with bleeding patients for centuries and even millennia, how could it not be discovered even by accident?-But the master healers all pledge to keep that knowledge secret from those who might use it for evil.

that was very good

you know i was kind of wondering what the others would think of Katara's bloodbending...
Write... Pretty please ?

I've been wanting to write something about the various 'bodybending' possibilities for a while. This might have tipped the scales enough for me to actually do get started. Although I'm not sure I'll compare, because this is super awesome. I love the dark side to Katara's powers, the fact that she actually feels the temptation to *use* them sometimes, and then hates that so much. The language you use is very emotional and powerful and Katara.

Oh god. You put down this truth to water bending so well I got chills.
