    Summary

    Katara thinks about soulmates often.
    Her Gran-Gran told her the story, once: how soulmates are tethered (she likes that word, tethered – stronger than connected, softer than chained), how young some of them are when they hear the first evidence of that Tether. How soulmates hear each others’ thoughts sometimes, even before they know they’re soulmates, even before they meet. She loves the idea that a little part of her is in someone else’s mind even now.

     

    Katara and Zuko through the years, sharing thoughts and finding each other.

    Summary

    A Soul Mark could be left for any kind of love—familial, friendly, romantic, pure, fantastical. Each color represented a different bond between the people that touched skin-to-skin. The colors stayed the same until the death of that person. Then, the Soul Mark would turn grey.

    Katara had never seen someone without Soul Marks.

    But Zuko’s skin didn’t have colors—it only had scars.

    [Final chapter rating changed to Mature.]

    Summary

    "Zuko, my sister Katara. Katara, my roommate Zuko."

    She blinks, the familiarity of the name hums in her bones as she stares at him. But then, she snaps herself out of her stupor by mentally shaking her head, realising she's been standing there looking like an idiot that Zuko probably thinks she's being weird.

    But, he doesn't seem to notice as he blinks at her too.

    So, she takes the initiative to offer her hand towards him, letting a smile grace her face. "Nice to meet you."

    Summary

    When Katara moves in with her brother and his two roommates, everything feels like it’s falling into place. She’s going to be starting at the school of her dreams, and she’s already making friendships that will last for years to come. There’s only one problem: one of her new roommates is maybe the most infuriating person she’s ever met. Zuko makes it clear that he doesn’t want to be her - or anybody’s - friend. But if there’s anything Katara’s good at, it’s not backing down from a challenge.
