[Katara is not doing well.

I know - I know I go back. I know I have something I need to finish. But how long is it going to be, Sokka? Other people, it seems like they go and come back all the time. And I can't help but wonder when it's going to be you and - and if it will ever be me."

"Sometimes I think it will never be me. But I can't do this without you."


But it had been him. It had been him, just like she'd been afraid it would be. And now the one person she had always known had her back was gone. She knew it wasn't fair, but she felt alone.

And angry. And helpless. And hurt. And angry.

"Sometimes I think it will never be me. But I can't do this without you."

She should have told him. She wasn't sure she could do this without him either.

Katara let Aang make the announcement. She didn't want to have to deal with his friends grief on top of her own. Maybe it was selfish, but maybe there was a time for that. There wasn't enough to do. She didn't really want to see anybody, but this wasn't like when she'd lost her mom. There were no emergencies. There was nothing to distract her.

But she couldn't stand being in the house Sokka had expanded, not after cleaning it from the second floor on down. If you're in the house, it's probably best not to get in her way.

Once that's done, there's still not enough to do. She goes out to practice bending by the river and takes her bo with her, just in case she wants to practice that too. But she mostly ends up sitting on a rock by the river, her feet dangling down and almost touching the water.]

[ He... sort of expected that. And he's disgusted with the fact that he's relieved. His current fear shift disgusts him. Ugh.

But he does leave a note all the same. He slides between anywhere in the window he can and-]

I came to visit you, but I think I have some sort of fear going on, and I didn't know what to say anyway.

I'm sorry.

If you need anything from me, please call for me, and I'll be there.

I'll come for you when I won't be terrible company too.

[ Was that too tame? Was that too... not positive? Not emotional? But even if they are friends, being too emotional would be bad, given who they are, but . . . ]
