'Course He Isn't Safe
Jin has been watching Mushi's nephew, Lee, ever since that crazy kid with the swords attacked them in the teashop.
Not because she believed him. But because now that she's seen Lee, she can't look away.
She isn't sure why. He's often rude, and when she smiles at him he looks alarmed. His scar's not so bad-- she's seen worse-- but he's always turning his face aside, like he doesn't want anyone to see. He's cute, though; and strong; and so intense it makes her toes tingle.
Wouldn't it be something, to earn the smiles of a boy like that?
But He's Good
Suki can hardly believe her luck in finding Appa.
The flying bison looks so miserable, wounded and chained and half-wild, as worn as if the entire Earth Kingdom has tried to come between him and Aang. Her heart goes out to him immediately.
She thinks of the look on Sokka's face under the bright moon; remembers the kiss when she'd left the group again. He'd been hurting after losing that other mysterious someone, but she'd helped; she'd reminded him of what he hasn't lost.
Hopefully, Appa will let her help him, too. She steps forward and stretches out her hand.

Because he DID look alarmed by smiles, and he was captivating, and there was something there that was intriguing. And I love, love, love the character that you gave her. Straightforward, honest with herself, and a little thrilled by the idea of Lee... Adore.
