Follow-up for Sentence #1: Motion.

Avatar doesn't belong to me, but if it did there would be lots of Zuko/Katara interaction.


"True love is a destiny, the kind that is unexpected and the type that one cannot run away from."

When she first set foot on his ship all those day ago, she despised his very existence. He ruined her life, her brother's life, and the life of a twelve year old boy whose duty was to save the world. Prince Zuko was an evil man— a person who would remain selfish and cruel, and who would not be stopped if he ever regained the throne.

These were the thoughts that passed through her head when she woke, when she ate, and right before she fell asleep. And these words were repeated with even more venom when he visited her.

He was usually quiet, never hurtful or cruel with her on his daily visits. And though she would never admit it, she sometimes thought she saw remorse in his eyes when they spoke. But when she tried to be more than civil with the young Prince, he would scowl and make the wall between them thicker to penetrate.

But what she never knew was that the various days she was on the ship, vomiting because of the constant swaying, he came to visit her because he was genuinely concerned for her well-being. He needed to make sure that she was going to be alright.

But most of all, he needed to see her.

Because despite the arguments they had on a daily basis, he knew they were bonding. And even though he knew she spoke ill of him behind his back, he knew she would care if something went wrong. But what he must've noticed most was the way she looked into his eyes when there was complete silence— that look of utter understanding and care.

He needed that. And after discovering that Katara could provide it, he needed her.
