𑣲⋆ Because loving him hurts; but staying away hurts harder. Zuko, who finally grew to become someone you couldn’t comprehend with, had fallen in love with you—the person who still, out of all the Gaang, cannot forgive him. How could you? Sure, he may not have held the blades that slaughtered your family, but he still stood beside Ozai when it happened. Sure, maybe his hands were not the ones covered in blood, but yours were. Still, he grew to become someone who made you believe, that for even a moment—his love was pure and tender. It felt disgusting in your hands. Because loving him means your family’s death meant nothing. Loving him meant all the years of you caged loyalty to a family who’d never see his redemption rendered useless. You can’t love him. He can’t let go of you. Damn it all.
