Fandom: Avatar: The Last Airbender
Characters: Aang and Zuko
Summary: Aang and Zuko think about how their relationship has changed.
When Aang first asked Zuko if they could have been friends, he was honestly interested in what Zuko’s answer would be. Zuko was a great deal like his friend Kuzon—passionate, hot-headed, and determined. He knew that he shouldn’t read any more into the prince’s rescue of him than a determination to capture the Avatar himself, but he couldn’t help hoping.
:-:-:-:-:
When Zuko heard the airbender ask if they could have been friends before the war, his first thought was that the Avatar was crazy. Zuko had chased the boy halfway around the world and yet he was still interested in being friends? It wasn’t until after the Avatar had left that Zuko began to wonder what it would be like to have the airbender for a friend instead of an enemy.
________________________________________________________________________
When Zuko showed up at the Western Air Temple asking to join their group, Aang was reminded of the question he had asked the prince so many months ago. The fact that Zuko had remembered it too only served to reinforce the airbender’s curiosity. If he had only had himself to think about, he might have taken the chance of accepting the prince. But ultimately, he couldn’t take the risk, not now, not with his friends’ safety at stake as well.

When Zuko approached the Avatar and his friends at the Western Air Temple with his request to join them, he was holding on tightly to the memory of the question the Avatar had asked him all those months ago. After the Avatar rejected him, even when reminded of his own question, Zuko realized that it would be harder to gain their acceptance than he had thought.

When Aang and Zuko embraced before Zuko’s coronation, both of them were reminded of just how far they had come since their first meeting. They may have started as enemies, but now they were the closest of friends. All of the struggles and trials and tribulations that they had been through together only served to make their friendship that much stronger once it finally formed.
