THE FIRST & LAST WORDS OF THE SERIES SAYS IT ALL.
(1x01) ATLA's First Word; "It's" by Sokka. (3x21) ATLA's Last Word; "Perfect" by Toph. (4x13) TLOK's Last Words; "Sounds Perfect" by Korra.
"It's perfect. Sounds perfect." And it was perfect indeed.

“You know…” Kya ventured, reckless yet earnest, as they later waded slowly from the ocean. “You don’t have to go back to the city after we all leave Ember Island. You could come with me. Travel. If you really wanted to.”
“What would I do?” Lin shook her head, her eyes narrowing sharply yet aimlessly. “My life is in Republic City. My career.”
“You can do whatever you want to, Lin. Your life is yours.” Kya argued gently. “You could do anything. All of it. All the things you’d never normally let yourself do.”

the beifong family HAD to have mad interpersonal drama otherwise they'd literally be unstoppable send tweet
i second and resend it in uppercase letters !!!
thank u to my friend zevri for opening my eyes to how well so many Ron Swanson lines go with Lin.
Also made me realize how much I want Lin and Mako to have a Ron and April thing going on.
Toph: I'm just terrified I'm going to drop Suyin like I dropped Lin. 5 year old Lin: You did what? Toph: I did-Hey! Hey, sweetie. No, no, no, mommy didn't drop you. It was more like a toss and then you flew a little. Lin: Bad mommy! Toph: But your daddy caught you. Lin: Lucky mommy.

Young Tenzin: I QUIT!
Young Lin: YOU CAN'T QUIT MATH!
Young Tenzin: YES, I MOST CERTAINLY CAN!
Katara: Dear spirits, what is going on here??
Young Lin: Your son is dumb!
Young Tenzin: I'M NOT DUMB! YOU CAN'T SOLVE IT EITHER!
Katara: Stop this right now! And no one is dumb.
[Looks at Kya for clarification]
Teen Kya: They're learning formulas at school so I'm trying to help. Not going well.
Katara: Oh..

TLOK: The way his first thought & instinct [while being bloodbended himself] was to look for Toph right away, probably wishing he could've protected her, when Yakone attacked. This scene lives rest free in my head! ♡
Like mother like daughter
People complained that Su never said sorry for what happened. But neither did Lin. She never said the words "I'm sorry" to Opal. She talked to her and hugged her. Toph never said sorry for anything that happened. But people expect Su or Lin to do something their mother never did to her children. They seem to show they care by just being there for each other. Toph said she has great kids because she's willing to risk her butt for them. Su reaches out to Lin and Toph because she wants them in her life. Lin went from not even speaking Su's name to fighting side by side with her sister.
THIS!! In fact, to me, that's exactly what the series wanted to show; There's a lot of ways to say you're sorry. The fact Su spent years of her life trying to reconnect with Lin already shows she regrets a lot, she is sorry and she cares. The fact Lin embraced and helped Opal and reconnected with Su shows how she cares and how she's sorry too. The fact Toph acknowledges she was not good enough as a mother but even so would keep an eye on her girls through the vines for all those years and go to their rescue when they really needed her also shows how she cares and regrets a lot. They understand those signs/acts of love, maybe that's how they are more comfortable solving things. It's not the best way to do it (we all know sincere communication is key) but it's the healthiest way they could considering they just got reunited, at least. And that's completely true to their characters. They end up the series looking the most weightless and happy we've seen them since the series began, that all alone shows how far they've come and should be appreciated as it is. ♡
On the other hand, we can't ignore the fact that people have different values, point of view & experiences in life. People tend to project their own feelings into fictional characters; their own sense of justice and what's wrong or right for them (not rlly for the characters). So, I understand that some fans get frustrated when putting themselves into Lin's shoes (or Su's or Toph's) and wish there was a huge apology going on for their own personal sense of reconciliation irl. And as long as there's no toxic hating thrown at the characters, it's ok - BUT we can't forget that each character had their own "good reason" to act the way they did, no one was 100% right or 100% wrong, we gotta understand each aspect. — We can also just ask ourselves; "Why would the exchange of verbalized apologies be so important to me?" "Why did their actions all alone couldn't reach me the same way they did to others?" "Why do I need the verbalized apology to feel those relationships are truly healing?"
— There's one moment in the series where Suyin says "My children are a blessing." and Lin is quick to reply "Mom used to say that to us but she never meant it." I think about this scene a lot; Toph surely meant those words, but she didn't know how to demonstrate that properly as a mother; Leading to Lin never really trusting those words, they were just words.
So, to me, the problem with demanding/wishing for an "i'm sorry" so one can finally forgive is that not everyone is emotionally/psychologically ready to access certain feelings and easily say those words, it doesn't mean they don't feel it or show it the way they can ‐ the Beifongs are just one example of those cases. It is important for us as fans to know when our personal expectations/needs end & the fictional characters' begin, so we can analyze the fictional work and their intentions more fairly.
