[voice] an idle curiosity in the middle of the night

If you could make the choice to lose one memory, what would it be?

If you don't feel like sharing the details of that moment, answer this instead- if you were really given the choice, not hypothetically in the future, but today, with all the realities and consequences you face, would you let the moment go? And would it change you?

How much of our darkest moments make us what we are?

[Still a little stiffly:]

If there's anything you want to know, I can tell you.

Tell me what we talked about.

The night I came back?

If that wouldn't be too intrusive.

[Not that he can see, but she's closing her eyes in thought.]

You brought me whisked tea, and then you and Emily slept in my bed with me until your friend Horst arrived. I didn't have nightmares.

Good!

And then, when I woke up, you gave me tea with brandy in it.

Well, if you're grown up enough to die, you're grown up enough to stomach a little brandy.

Perhaps I thought it best you know that, despite the comfort you needed.

Are you still going to be a jerk if I tell you I missed you again?

I think I've outgrown that stage.

Oh.

[Another long, long silence.]

I'm really happy to hear that.

Who else from the household is left?

.. Jet. Zuko came back, but he doesn't leave his room much, and doesn't know you. Toph and Aang are gone. Sokka's moved out.

Zuko was the one who brought me in to your ragtag band?

.. that's right. The scruffy voice. Kind of a rough personality.

He was kinder than he let on.

He was. He was really protective of all of us.

I'll have to think about it.

Do that and get back to me on it.

Lovely.
