Red on black is Zuko charging to meet his eternal enemy. Blue on brown is Katara rising to answer him.

Red on black is blood dripping out of a burn wound. Blue on brown is water washing over bruises, kissing them better.

Red on black is failure, and kneeling to meet fate's blow. Blue on brown is a crushing blow averted, and a hand reaching out to pull him off the ground.

Red on black is a traitor twice over, forever condemned by his family. Blue on brown is bringing together a new family, and sealing up the cracks.

Red on black touches Blue on brown and together they carve a whole new motif.
