Summary
Katara and Zuko's mission on board The Southern Raiders goes badly wrong, and they are captured and imprisoned in the unforgiving hull of the ship.
Katara now finds herself locked in a small room with a boy that she refuses to trust, and nine years worth of trauma and guilt swimming in her mind. She is resolute in her hostility towards Zuko, but as the horrors of their captivity unfold, an undeniable bond is formed in the quiet moments between their captor's torments.
When they find themselves safely back with their friends on Ember Island, they are both sporting deep scars – old and new, seen and unseen. Katara struggles to reconcile all the pieces of herself and figure out who she truly is. And Zuko continues to battle with his past guilt, and the new guilt that arises from his growing feelings towards Katara.
As their bond deepens – it may be the lifeline they both so desperately need to pull them from the dark waters of their past.

Summary
"You ruined everything."
Those words hit Sawamura like a punch to the chest. He almost took a step back, his ears ringing and vision tunneling. It was hard to say what hurt more, the harshness of those words or the warm, pained, hateful look darkening the hazel eyes that mere months ago had gazed up at him so lovingly. Hazel, red-rimmed eyes that now glistened with spite through messy silver hair, strands he still felt an impulse to stroke behind the other's ears.
