This is a drabble that takes place in the episode where Amon takes Lin bending away, when she stays behind to protect Tenzin and his family.
English is not my native language and I translated this fanfic, originally in Spanish, all by myself so there will be mistakes, but I will appreciate your feedback.
Sorry in advance if this give you cancer.
For him
She did it for him.
"Whatever happens to me…Don't turn back!"
She did it for him.
She looked at his children, at the fear and the disquiet staining their usually sweet and puerile gaze, at the arms of the girls warped around each other, at the dismayed face of the boy, at the calm and sleepy face of the youngest.
She did it for him.
She looked at his wife, at the beautiful woman that feared for his children, at the woman whose joy for her last childbirth had been taken away, at the woman that was being pulled out of his home in the name of an unfair war that claimed justice.
She did it for him.
She looked at Tenzin, sitting in the head of the bison; she looked at his straight back and his tense looks, at the barely noticeable sweat on his hairless nape. She looked at the man she hadn't stopped loving and she said to herself that she was doing for him.
For him and that family she had been incapable of giving him.
I rarely write about straight ships, but Lin is an incredible character and she and Tenzin are an awesome couple. I really like the idea of them together, but their canon situation is great too 'cause it means angst and I love angst xD
I hope you guys had enjoyed this, thank you for reading, every comment is appreciate.
