The first thing Kat feels when she collects herself is a gust of hot air that slaps her in the face. It’s warm, enough to make her loosen her scarf and think about putting up her hair. When she opens her eyes, there are still some black spots in her vision. Traveling with Gade is always tiring.
The first thing that she sees when she turns around, full of wanderlust and ready to go, is a man on fire.
She screams. All Kat sees is a man surrounded by flames that to lap at his hands, ready to eat away at his flesh. She doesn’t see the unalarmed look on his face, nor the way in which the flames don’t seem to bother his skin at all. Her heart is going ten miles per hour, and all she can think is water, blanket, anything.
There’s a bucket of water right there, which, if she were a little more levelheaded, should make her at least think twice. But she doesn’t, she picks it up and doesn’t miss a beat, throws the water to soak the man in as controlled a manner as she can. The bucket is quickly discarded, and her hands reach towards him, prepared to carry him off to the nearest body of water if she has to.
❝Are you okay!?❞
❝ stop flirting ! ❞ tugged aside from CHATTER / GOLD SILK . there was no nobility between them , not with the cold hand around his heart , with that obnoxious smirk zuko had no attempt to HIDE . ❝ i’m right here , y’know ! ❞ // @fireseye
❝ ZUKO ! ❞ a combination of joy / relief , IMMEASURABLE . there had only been whispers of the firestorm , of lightning and a girl unravelled . soundless is he as he bounds across the room , places both hands on opposite cheeks , brings more regal lips to his OWN . ❝ you’re okay ! ❞ // @fireseye
❝ zuko . ❞ no anger , but there is TENSION . a strain in his words that has evidently built over hours at night , thoughts whirling and twisting amidst one another . GURU GOODIE GOODIE . ❝ i’m not here to lecture you . ❞ aren’t you ? ❝ i just wanna TALK . ❞ ( i was never a teacher like you . ) ❝ . . . we have different pasts . different teachers . and . . . i know you haven’t been around much forgiveness , but i think we’ve both seen enough ANGER . ❞ // @fireseye
❝ you don’t have to talk about it . ❞ when did he ever ? zuko , the almighty , the unwavering . ALIVE with a fire he could never understand . teeth worry the inside of his cheek , grant him enough silence to ❝ i get it . i never had parents , but ... i lost someone pretty close . ❞

THE FIRE LORD & THE AVATAR . a media sensation if he had ever seen one . the monks hardly taught him the avenues of romance , but he was a quick learner . zuko , on the other hand . he swings down from the tree he was waiting in , legs still wrapped around the branch . ❝ zuko ! anyone tell you you’re pretty today ? ❞
@fireseye
the days had been long , and sleepless nights had been longer . they were often at one another’s sides , laughing ( rarely ) , discussing charity , reminiscing , existing . but , he had yet to be at the FIRE LORD’S side in the darkest of evenings . practiced hands found both cheeks , one velvet soft , the other coarse . he doesn’t feel his own lips find someone else’s , but he remembers pulling back . ❝ you’re gonna be okay . ❞
