Summary
Her chest heaves. “Stop!” Katara’s voice pitches to a shriek. “It’s not—”
—real.
Zuko’s teeth dig into his bottom lip, warm copper bursting into the far corners of his mouth. “Why?”
(Or: Katara, Aang, Zuko. A tale of love, loss, and love again.)

Summary
And if Ty Lee notices the way Katara’s breath hitches, she refrains from commenting. Instead, she merely moves a little closer to Katara as they exit the courtyard, arm in arm, leaving Katara to wonder how much closer time will allow them to get.
(Ty Lee is Katara’s bodyguard. But it’s just a temporary assignment, meaning there’s no risk of any unintended consequences. Right?)

“Is it distrust of me,” Aang says, “or distrust of the Avatar?”
A bitter laugh escapes Zuko’s lips before he can stop it.

Summary
“I love you, too, my dear.” Kanna exhales a shaky breath. “I’d never forgive myself if you don’t… if you left without knowing that.”
Katara doesn’t miss her grandmother’s change of phrase. Kanna’s unspoken words are a truth, an ice in her veins Katara has tried so very hard to ignore.
This might be goodbye.
(“To heal is to touch with love that which we previously touched with fear.” – Stephen Levine. A Katara-centric companion piece to “Forgotten Language.”)

Summary
Nida paused. A smile twitched at the corners of her lips. “Well… There has always been more to bending than sheer ability.” She kissed the top of Kanna’s head, earning a delighted giggle from her daughter. “Would you like to know the most important rule?”
Kanna sat up, nodding eagerly. “Yes!”
“To speak the language of the waters…” Her mother winked at her. “The first thing you must do is listen.”
(“Ultimately, there can be no complete healing until we have restored our primal trust in life.” – Georg Feuerstein. A Kanna-centric fic.)

Zuko sometimes thought of his reciprocal scar as penance, that which bound him to the Avatar.

Summary
As a child, Katara had always dreamed of meeting her soulmate, of being swept off her feet by some dashing stranger, of hearing her name fall from their lips like snowflakes fluttering down from the pink sky above. She’d found solace in this perfect person, and she’d used their unlimited potential to distract herself from the horrors of war ever surrounding her icy home.
The day Katara learned she didn’t have a soulmate, she’d wept for hours.
For Katara and Aang, fate works in mysterious ways.

Summary
Then her shoulders fell, the inky shadows deepening across her face as Katara sighed and pulled her knees into her chest. “I just—I have to know you’re okay, Aang. That’s all. It’s not a big deal.”
Aang blinked, her words sinking into his heart like a stone into quicksand. “Know I’m okay,” he repeated, “or know I’m alive?”
When Aang falls, Katara is always there to catch him. But maybe that’s part of the problem.

It was then Katara’s turn to stare up at the fiery sky, the multitude of clouds glowing in red and orange glory. “Aang,” she murmured, his name falling from her lips like a prayer. “Please.”
After the final battle, Katara and Aang reunite.

Summary
(Third part in the “fire lily” trilogy.)
“So can I try again?”
Mai’s mouth was dry as she turned to face Zuko, their eyes nearly level. “Try what again?”
(Mai will always be his fire lily. If only Zuko knew how to tell her that. Post-canon Maiko softness with a dash of emotional hurt/comfort.)

Right now, though? Yeah, Sokka wasn’t sure either of them would make great dance partners, what with Aang bleeding out from a knife wound to his stomach while Sokka desperately tried to stem the flow, blue fabric in his hands turning violet.

Summary
Kuzon grinned, shifting on the tree branch to face Aang directly. The wood creaked as their legs continued to dangle off the sides, bare feet occasionally brushing. The evening breeze threaded around the two of them, rustling the tree’s dying leaves and sending Kuzon’s hair that had fallen from his topknot in a million different directions. “It was with Bumi.”
Aang’s jaw dropped. “It was not.”

Summary
Song began to expect him. At the beginning of every month, the Avatar would visit her small town, occasionally bringing a guest with him. He’d lend a hand with treating patients for at least 24 hours, and then he’d be gone. Maybe with a wink, or a gentle touch of her shoulder. Once, he’d disappeared with a chaste kiss to her forehead.
But he could never stay.

Summary
During their most recent interactions, Aang couldn’t deny that something had… maybe changed between them. To Aang, they’d grown closer than ever, holding hands and tackling each other into hugs on sight and finishing each other’s sentences. Sometimes a joke, sometimes planned, and sometimes not.
Aang couldn’t go without visiting Kuzon one last time. Not when he hadn’t - he hadn’t -
(A pre-canon Kuzaang fic. Fate is a cruel mistress.)

Summary
Aang wasn’t sure when he started crying. He wasn’t sure when his friends joined him on the balcony, either. But when they all wrapped their arms around him in a massive, ridiculous, everything-he-could-have-ever-wanted group hug…
They were Aang’s present. His friends grounded him, keeping him in the now. And yet, if he opened his eyes?
Aang suspected he would fly.

Summary
Written for the Kataang Valentine's Bash on Tumblr with the prompt “Beginnings and Endings.“
“I don’t know. I just feel like… I was meant to find you.” She and Aang were destined to meet in any and every lifetime. Katara knew that to be true. No matter where, no matter when, no matter how.
She and Aang would always find each other.
