"Mommy, can you tell me about daddy?"
"Sweetie, I've told you all about daddy."
"I know, but can you tell me again?"
"Well, he was a great war hero who died after the war against the Fire Nation."
"Was he strong?"
"Oh yes. Quite strong."
"What was he like?"
"Your father was the bravest man I have ever met. He left his father to help us restore balance."
"But that was back then, right?"
"Yes."
"So am I really related to Ozai?"
"Technically, yes."
"Ew!"
"No, sweetie. Ozai wasn't that bad, he was just confused."
"And bad."
"To a certain extent, I suppose."
"So… what about daddy?"
"He died before you were born."
"Well, I know that. But what was he like?"
"Oh… he was caring and sweet. Handsome, too—"
"What did he look like?"
"He looked a lot like you. Brown hair and gold eyes."
"Was he cute?"
"Definitely, just like you."
"So you still haven't told me what he was really like."
"Well, maybe you should ask Uncle Aang or Uncle Sokka."
"But Uncle Aang meditates all day. Why would I ask him?"
"Because Aang knows more about your father than I do."
"But… you were married to him? Is it true that he's evil?"
"No, sweetie. At the beginning, yes your father wasn't very nice to us. He kept trying to capture Uncle Aang—"
"Wait—who would want to capture Uncle Aang? He's bald!"
"Sweetie, he's the avatar."
"But… but… daddy wasn't that bad, was he."
"No. He turned into a wonderful young man that I fell in love with."
"But I thought you love Uncle Aang."
"I do, but my heart belongs with your father."
"Even if he's dead?"
"Yes, sweetie. You know that."
"I miss him."
"I do, too."
"Was he ugly."
"No, sweetie. He was beautiful."
"Like you?"
"Yes, I suppose. Now go to sleep."
"Night."
"Night, sweetie."
"… mommy?"
"Yes?"
"Am I really a princess?"
"Yes sweetie. Good night."
"… mommy?'
"Yes?"
"What was daddy's name?"
"His name was Fire Lord Zuko."
"Mommy?"
"Yes?"
"Goodnight."
"Goodnight, my little fire princess."
