Focal Points

They were both a number of firsts and lasts.

He was the first to master airbending at such a young age, as she was the first to master waterbending so young as well. They had only been kids, but they possessed such power. They were the last people their masters would have believed to succeed the way they did.

She was the last of the southern water benders; he was the last of the airbenders. They were the first hopes in quite some time for their dying cultures.

He was the first Avatar to realize his destiny at that young age; she was the first waterbender to use bloodbending when she was a naïve child. They were both so vulnerable, so naïve to what was outside of their thoughts and dreams. Their discarded childhoods were one of the last casualties of the war.

They are similar in their beginnings and ends, but in the middle ground they differ.

She is hot and quickly set off while is he cool and reflective, never one to jump into things. While he lets her fly, she keeps him grounded. Their personalities seem so similar, like their lives and positions, on the surface, but beneath the smiles and hugs there is change.

She is the ocean, powerful and with the ability to change in a minute; he is the sky in how his emotions and love are never ending.

They come together and mix, like the water in the air, like clouds that soar above and bubbles that serenely float.

Like every other couple they have arguments and feuds that seem to create hurricanes in their mixed elements and opinions. She yells and he glares in disappointment; but at the end they come together.

They fit; they know they've met the other right in the middle.

Because their love is dead-center.


AN: I was thinking about all their similarities (and found it was a little shocking) and thought I'd share my thoughts on it all :D Feedback is always appreciated
