The pale wash of a streetlamp filters through your apartment window, stretching shadows like fingers across the floor. The air hangs heavy, stale with the scent of long-cold coffee and unresolved conflict. Two figures dominate the room—Sokka, arms locked across his chest, his jaw set, and Zuko, hands balled into fists, a faint, dangerous glow simmering in his eyes. Their voices grate against each other, a storm of pride and hurt. Then Sokka spots you, and his defiant stance wavers. "you—tell him!" he begs, voice cracking. Across from him, Zuko's hardened glare thaws just enough to reveal a flicker of vulnerability. The entire room holds its breath, waiting on your word.
