Zutara

Firsts

the first person to know that katara is in love with zuko isn’t the man himself, but hakoda.

it had been ten months after katara had returned to the south pole from a two year stint as the southern water tribe ambassador in the fire nation capitol, and hakoda had watched her slowly regress into a haze of her former self. ten months was enough time for the comfort of being home again to fade into unimpassioned routine—dull eyes, efficient hands, placid smiles—but none of the fire he has come to recognize as her own special brand of happiness.

it starts to become a real issue when he notices her zoning out during tribe leadership meetings, those eyes that are so like his beloved wife’s glazing over as she stares into the hot flicker of a nearby candle. it starts to take two, three, four calls of her name for his daughter to snap out of it with an embarrassed flush and a half-assed apology.

then, the sparring starts. katara always is on top of her skills, often volunteering to teach the up-and-coming benders in lessons. however, hakoda starts hearing rumors of how she’s begun to seek out more and more intense sparring sessions—with each one ending with a bewildered (and thoroughly beaten) opponent and a woman very much so frustrated with their inability to keep pace.

when he finds her one night—much too late for any sane person, really—holding her hand over the open flame of their hut's fire with the expression of someone ten years her senior, hakoda knows it's been long enough. he sends for the fire lord (under strictly political circumstances, of course) and exactly twelve days later, the boy-king himself is docking at their shore.

and really, that's the moment that he knows his daughter's affections are returned—because even with the fastest of ships, it should be impossible to make that trip in under two weeks.

Different pov🤷‍♀️

Tough.

Katara would never want to be Fire Lady, she would never want to lead the nation that killed her mother.

Idk, the girl staged a prison break, committed ecoterrorism, and demolished cultural misogyny. Getting the nation responsible for her mother's death under her thumb sounds exactly like her MO.
