They’ve been staying in the palace for a week. She and Aang have come to the Fire Nation capital, Aang on Avatar business, she mostly just to visit. It’s a year later when Zuko confronts her, full of unwanted concern and over protectiveness about things that are really none of his business. He adores her, and returning his sentiments is the easiest and most natural thing in the world. They’ve been friends, they’ve journeyed together, they’ve learned from each other. Finally, she is able to focus on something more fun and less complicated.Īnd if anything is uncomplicated, it’s Aang’s affection for her. The war over, the peace treaty she’d helped to draft signed, and balance restored, Katara finds that later has become now.

Romance was something that might be nice, but later. Teaching Aang, finding other people to teach Aang, evading capture, escaping capture, navigating the world, making their limited supplies last, plotting against the Fire Nation, leading a rebellion, holding everyone together when both time and tempers grew short – these things had always been her immediate concerns. His feelings for her have been evident for some time, but she’d never let herself think about them because there had always been more pressing matters. It’s two months after Ozai’s defeat when Katara officially becomes the Avatar’s girlfriend. This was intended to be a bitter-sweet collection of moments from Katara's life between The Last Airbender and The Legend of Korra, but it came out way more bitter than sweet. Kataang, minor ZutaraĪuthor's notes: Jumping on the Legend of Korra bandwagon, here's my speculation/wishful thinking based on what little we know. Characters/Pairings: Katara, Aang, Zuko, et al.
