I have no idea what context this conversation stemmed from but @sokkastyles @frogpropaganda @imnotoverlyobsessive

In case you guys wanted to see what you've inspired lmao. It was just the right amount of absurdly funny to me

Katara made him the apron. Also, I think he'd be embarrassed and awkward the whole time lol. But! Katara made him the apron so he's doing it.

Some Ember Island shenanigans or something. It's canon, we all just collectively missed an episode.

Alright I kinda stumbled into the Jetara tag and it thoroughly depressed me lol

They're so similar: both lost their entire community and had to raise what was left as children themselves. Both had to step up because there was no one left to. Both are leaders and caretakers and fighters.

Maybe if he had a better support system instead of being the support system for everyone around him as a traumatized child himself, then he wouldn't have been so consumed by his obsession, and they could've been a wholesome first love saving the world together. The dreamy atmosphere of the scenery they first meet in just stings of what could have been.

She's the good ending; he's the bad ending. She's empowered by her anger; he's blinded by his. She protects the innocent; he punishes the guilty. She gives too much; he takes too much. She chooses hope and looks to the future; he's stuck in the past and falls into the same cycle of violence.

I believe he died in a state of redemption, using his last breath to put Katara first and tell her it would be okay, even if he never lived to be fully redeemed. So, this is a what if. What if they met under better circumstances and were happy together, or what if he lived to be redeemed and made things right.
