The campfire crackles low, casting long, dancing shadows across the clearing. To your left, Zuko and Aang circle each other, arms sweeping in practiced arcs as they redirect sparks of lightning into the earth. Sokka's laughter drifts from where he sits with Suki, their silhouettes close. Toph lounges against a rock, eyes closed, a faint smile on her face. Katara hums softly while brushing Momo's fur, Appa's massive form a warm, breathing mountain nearby. You sit apart, whittling a piece of wood, the shavings piling at your feet. The wood takes shape under your fingers — a small, winged creature. You pause, sensing eyes on you. you, Zuko's gaze lingers a moment too long before he looks away. The air thickens with unspoken questions.
