   Summary

   It was easy for Zuko to pretend he didn’t want Katara when they were enemies.
   It got a bit harder once they were allies.
   It became borderline painful once they were friends.

   But now that she’s taken up a prolonged residency in his palace? It feels physically impossible.

   Especially since she’s started looking at him in a way that absolutely cannot mean what he desperately wants it to mean, and behaving in ways that feel dangerously close to flirting.

   Of course, Zuko knows he is almost certainly imagining all of it. The alternative would be completely insane.

   Or: Katara tries to seduce the world’s most emotionally repressed man.
