A multiverse; the characters’ ages and looks remain the same in the Legend of Aang era. Canon Katara gets sucked into a vortex created by a jinn/trickster that Team Avatar was pursuing and Fire Lady Katara is spit out in canon world from a different universe.

The Wounded Soldier
My very first Zutara fanart prompt!
This was my first time ever trying to write anything. I didn't even know it was called a one-shot back then. That fanart just hit me so hard—my maladaptive daydreaming kicked into overdrive. Reading owedbetter's "I'm Still Here" was my very first ZK fanfic experience ever, and seeing @hayleynwong's art totally sucked me into this creative writing trap. A great outlet for someone with maladaptive daydreaming 😅.
Tumblr-is the place you post shit you can’t normally post on your other social…
When Aang gets into a provoked Avatar State, Katara the enabler has to calm him down in canon.
With Toph, she’d be tired of always placating his ass that she’d just say to the perp. “Oh boy, now you’ve done it. Get out of the way! He’s gonna blow!”
Toph is an enabler but in a different way
“Yeah, let him get his steam off..”
Then afterwards Aang will see the devastation he caused (no casualties, Toph would have moved the earth to keep everyone away from the blast of his anger) then Toph would just sit beside him.
“See what you’ve done? I’m not helping you clean that up.”
And Aang and the rest of the gaang and their allies—except Toph, would most likely clean it up.
Moments later, Aang would probably begrudge her for not helping out. But stubborn Toph wont let him get away with it.
“Listen up Bald Head, there’s a lesson you need to learn here.” Toph would say.
“I’m in no mood to listen to you, Toph!” Aang would reply.
Then Toph would bark back unapologetically “Since when do I care if you listen to me? I don't. But I'm still saying it, so deal with it.”
“You better check your emotions or one of these days, that anger is gonna make you do something you'll actually regret—like hurting someone, or worse.”
And with that, she storms off.
Aang would stew in that thought for a moment. He hates it… Hates it when she’s right on most things.
He'd probably apologize, and she’d just pat his bald head and tell him not to make a big deal out of it. She'd instantly pivot to telling him to spar with her to blow off steam, and he'd gladly oblige. Or, he'd take her out on the town for a treat—totally platonic, of course, just like the antis love to scream to dismiss the sheer potential of these two.
And so that would be (one of the many)the catalyst/s that would actually help Aang to control his emotions before going into the Avatar state next time.
Aang should have had a Book 4 Air in canon with all these growing up-coming of age - character developments that Aang should have gone through the way Zuko did in season 3.
Instead, he’s 25 and “not quite the adult Avatar that he needs to be yet,” like Bryke said about that nose controversial, same face syndrome, manga-washed movie their minions keep raving about 😒.
Aesthetics people… just the way their body slots perfectly is better than kissing someone shorter… and even when Aang grew taller, the chemistry is just not there….Not sorry 🤷🏽♀️ If Zuko wasnt a character, Katara would be better off with sweet Haru or a newbie than Aang.

“What’s wrong?” Katara asks immediately, concern sharpening her voice.
“Nothing,” he mutters, but the way he breathes tells her otherwise.
Her healer instincts flare to life. She stands and moves closer. “Zuko.”
He hesitates, then exhales. “It’s just… He presses a hand to his side, right below his ribs.
Katara doesn’t wait for permission.
She steps behind him and carefully lifts the edge of his top robe. A large, ugly blue-black bruise blooms across his skin, spreading over his ribs and back. The coloring is fresh and angry.
“Zuko! What happened!?” Her voice is soft but urgent.
He keeps his gaze fixed on the table.
“When the vortex took you—well, the other you—I tried to reach for… you... You know what I mean. Anyway, it rejected me. Slammed me across the room and straight into a stone pillar. I didn’t feel it much yesterday with everything going on, but now…”
Katara taps his shoulder lightly. “Take this off.”
If you’re new to the fic, its about a multiverse—all ages are same ages with the Legend of Aang movie were canon Katara got sucked into a vortex created by a trickster jinn and Fire Lady Katara is spit out in the canon universe. A swap of their lives so to speak. You can start from the beginning 👇🏽
