They stood in front of her tribe and listened as her father told them they were one now, one life, one spirit, two bodies.
And he remembered the way it felt to let her go beneath Ba Sing Se and held a little of himself back, divorced from her, divorced from the new being they were making named Katara-and-Aang.
It was the part of him that remembered that she was her own person, the person he loved. As she wrapped her arms around him and drew him into a kiss, he hoped she held back that bit of herself too.
P.S. Were you the person who just bought me two months paid time? Because, wow.
