I can in no way articulate how great this is. I've been reading it and rereading it, and: it's stunning, that repeated first line especially. You really captured Suki's mentality---Suki herself, really: a thing (and not unique) born in a world soaked in 100 years of war, clinging to comrades, and burning glory, and a survival that begins to last too long. It's really a fantastic look at the whole world (and message) of Avatar itself, and what war can mean for Sides that turn out to be Cultures and for Warriors that turn out to be People.
