-- Aang!

[The word comes out in a surprised cry. She hadn't expected anyone to be there -- she wasn't sure what she was expecting, her last memory being tortured by that ring of wizards, but it wasn't waking up in the clinic to see Aang.

How could she have been that stupid? That trusting?]

I'm so sorry.

I still feel stupid. I shouldn't have forgotten you. Forgotten -- everything.

[Shaking slightly from the dump of adrenaline in her system, she motions for Aang to come over.]

[She jumps when his face appears on the screen, and it can't be helped; there's a flash of fear. She has to subdue the kneejerk reaction to turn the PCD off immediately. Instead, Katara just looks away for a moment before addressing him.]

You killed me.

[She can't look into his eyes on the screen. She's not trying very hard, either.]

Would you have done it normally? If you weren't affected by the event, I mean.

[She just.. wants to know.]

[Unohana didn't stop Katara from leaving. Physically, the girl was fone, and Unohana had made sure she was cleaned up so that she wouldn't wake up covered in gore. She'd feel better at home with her friends.]

How are you feeling, Katar-san?

.. I don't know. I'm alright, I guess.

[She isn't sure how else to say it. There are flashes of panic, and then.. numbness. It's hard to comprehend what actually happened, so much easier to just pretend that it was a very, very bad dream.]

I just need to.. get used to being awake again, I think. But thank you. For everything.

Do not worry about it.

If you feel that you have a bit of a trouble sleeping in the next few days, just tell me, will you?

[She can't imagine ever wanting to sleep again in her entire life.]

Of course. Thank you, ma'am.

[He hasn't sat at her bedside at all, since bringing her to the clinic, but he's been outside.

Making sure no one who isn't supposed to see Katara comes in to see her.

But the moment he hears the scream, he's in the doorway, almost breathless -- ]

Katara -- ?

[And Katara jumps when Zuko appears in the doorframe, eyes widening briefly in panic. She's ready to jump up, to defend herself this time, before she realizes who it is and only relaxes marginally.

It's the same response she gave Aang -- she isn't sure how else to answer, and instead greets him with a choked:]

I'm sorry.

[He almost leaves, once he sees Katara's reaction -- but once she apologizes --

What in the hell is she apologizing for? That doesn't make any sense. She didn't --

He steps forward a little hesitantly before sitting by the bed.]

Why are you sorry?

[A brief flash of relief hits her face when Zuko steps inside instead of just leaving. She throws her legs over the side of the bed, trembling slightly still when she turns to face him.]

I shouldn't have done that. I shouldn't have let myself get hurt. I died, didn't I? I've been dead.

[Because she knows. She knows time has passed -- she knows they didn't let her get out of there alive.]

...Katara.

I'm so sorry.

[Sorry, Raven: she thought she was ready for this, but she can't look at your face on the screen.]

It wasn't your fault.

[It hurts to see her look away, but she can't really blame her. Raven had feared she wouldn't even talk to her.] It was.

...I fled, knowing you were about to get killed. And before that I hurt you. [She fled because her human side couldn't stand the idea of seeing Katara die.] You saved me, but I couldn't save you.

It was an event, Raven. I should have been able to defend myself. I shouldn't have been stupid enough to go to the wastes with a stranger, even while under the effects of an event.

[The words come quickly, quietly.]

I don't blame you. You're still my friend. I just --

[It's hard to keep her voice level.]

I'm just going to need some time.
