A fluffy one, and a short one. I can't wait till tomorrow.
Summary: He was taught to respect life, he had so many lessons
I own nothing but the storyline and OCs
Aang was always taught to love everything alive, and he did. He valued lives more than anything never once had the thought of killing something ever really crossed him mind. He hated being but on murder cases and such, it was bad enough there was a rebellion they didn't need to take lives to make a point. He hated it, and in the end forced it one someone else, they never questioned why, they knew it was too much for him to take.
Aang liked all live, no matter what, even if it was some giant animal that wanted to eat him for dinner. He would merely slap it around a bit, and go about his business when it ran off. That's how it always was with him, and he held it all the way through the end of the war, not killing a soul. Katara didn't either, and Aang couldn't help but smile at the fact, of course he could also be smiling at the fact that she was unharmed for the most part.
He remembered when Katara became the love of his life, and much more when she taught him to love life. He taught her too, or more like their first child did. He remembered when Katara told him, she was shy, a lot more shy then usual. Of course she was smiling and laughing happily as he twirled her around.
He continued to love life, especially the lives he helped create. He remembered Juu wanting to get in on the twirling and laughing when Katara was pregnant again, with his sister. Juu was around two at the time, and he had always wanted to get into everything. He remembered the twins, and both son and daughter exchanged curious glances. Yet both the eight year old and the six year old openly accepted the two younger twins.
Aang watched his children's eyes soften at the news of their children, yet only one really feared his life. Aang chuckled as his son quickly left to find shelter from his wife and sister. Aang loved his grandchildren as much as he loved any other life. He liked that fact that both waterbenders and airbenders came form each of his children. There was some earthbenders too, but he still loved them all the same.
Aang was taught to respect and treat life with the highest value, yet he ended up loving the very idea of it. While life is funny and comes with its twist and turns, he always loved it and what came from it.
