sleeping arrangements (not sure tara would ever actually deign to sleep in the same 20ft radius as shovel but who can resist those big shiny insectoid black eyes 🥺)
Book 2 au: sparring sessions and short hair katara
They like to have sparring sessions in order to keep their bending skills sharp. They allow themselves to go all out and not hold back at all cause they know if anyone got hurt, Katara could just heal them
But anyways, wouldn't it be kinda funny if Zuko accidentally burned Katara's hair tho? Aofkqldkkajfjd
The "I think we can save the hairloops" line is from @linnoya-writes thank you for that!! :>>
aang bodied zuko in every single fight without breaking a sweat when he was only twelve years old. imagine if zuko had actually had to fight an adult avatar who had already mastered all the elements and the avatar state. zuko couldn’t even win a fight against his little sister. and it’s not like he ever actually formed any kind of coherent plan when attempting to capture aang. at no point was he even like “well maybe if i got a really big net…” like obviously zuko is constantly operating on one million levels of cognitive dissonance (capturing the avatar = honor = acceptance = father’s love = safety, and so on and so forth) so it’s not like he ever stopped to logically reason, and that’s kind of the entire point of his character, but like. was there really not a single moment where he stopped and went “this kid is kicking my ass, maybe i should just call it a day” ??? well, no. of course not. because then he wouldn’t be zuko.
