    Summary

    "It is said that two spirits who are destined to be together, will find each other in every universe. It may simply take some longer to find each other than others."

    Zuko has not allowed himself to think of Katara in over a decade. He thought he had been successful in pushing down the memory of her. But when his daughter Izumi asks to visit the Southern Water Tribe, he is forced to confront the feelings he had long tried to keep buried. And Zuko is left having to face the fact, that no amount of time could ever make him fall out of love with Katara.

    Summary

    His one eye burned fiercely into hers, his iris molten gold as only the Imperial Family’s were. In it she saw villages reduced to crumbling skeletons wreathed in flame, torchlight of some epic destruction; she saw the blaze of a funeral pyre, her mother wrapped in furs now only ash upon it.

    It's a political arrangement. Most likely the best thing Katara could hope to do for the war effort. Not a surrender, an alliance.

    If she had to give up her freedom for the lives of her people, so be it. She would dress the part, suffer the scorching heat of the Fire Nation climate, and assimilate into the culture of her mortal enemies. She would even lie with their prince.

    She would never, ever, fall in love. Her heart was the one thing she had left—she would guard it with her life.

    Summary

    “I haven’t been able to sleep without dreaming about being suffocated under a pile of paperwork for months,” Zuko groans, still speaking into his hands. “Maybe years.”

    Katara considers this. “You need help.”

    “I need help,” he sighs.

    She feels lightheaded. Before she can stop herself, she says, “We should get married.”

    It’s so quiet it feels like even the fountain has stopped burbling.

    Slowly, Zuko lifts his head, looking at her. His good eye is wide, lips parted.

    “Huh?” he asks.

    five years after aang defeats ozai, katara is adrift. the water tribe is well on the way to recovery, the earth kingdom flourishing once again. aang has a dedicated following of non-benders learning the ways of the air nomads. now that she has nothing to do, katara is at a loss.
    zuko is underwater. the fire nation is drowning in a storm of its own making. he needs help. he needs a partner.
    that’s why, when katara suggests they get married, he jumps at the chance. not because he’s been in love with her for years. no, definitely not.
