A/N: Non-linear, rated T at the most, if they don't make sense feel free to tell me, etc. etc. Enjoy. ;3

#01 – Motion

Still waters run deep and though she sits quietly by the turtleduck pond on some of the best days in his memory, he finds her most beautiful when she's the ocean during a storm.

#02 – Cool

She never thought her hands were cold—until he was the one holding them.

#03 – Young

"When I was younger…" rarely preludes a good story, but without it she wouldn't have known he was a child at all.

#04 – Last

He was the last to hug her, the last to kiss her, the last one anyone expected to do either; she has but to look at him and he knows he's first in everything to her now.

#05 – Wrong

With how perfectly she fits at his side – hip to hip – it never occurs to her that it could be wrong to be there.

#06 – Gentle

His touch is always gentle despite her reassurances that he's forgiven for harboring hatred in his heart the first time he met her; after all, the feeling was mutual.

#07 – One

She'll never forget the day she caught him out of the air because she hesitated for one second, one second filled with flashbacks to black snow and raging fire—the only second of her life that she regrets.

#08 – Thousand

They tell her the people will love her – accept her – but she knows even the Avatar nor the Fire Lord can read the minds and hearts of that many.

#09 – King

The first thing she learns is to never defy him while he wears his crown; the second, how to remove it the moment they're out of sight.

#10 – Learn

Some nights that scar still burns—but cool fingertips are able to ease an ache that salve never could.
