I'm In My Maiko Feels Today, And I Gotta Say: We Don't Talk Enough About The Fact That Mai Is Too Shy

I'm in my Maiko feels today, and I gotta say: we don't talk enough about the fact that Mai is too shy to say she loves Zuko to his face.

On The Headband she says "I don't hate you." On The Beach she says "I care about you." In the finale she says "I actually... kind of like you." The ONE time she full on says the word LOVE, is at The Boiling Rock, when she's talking to Azula.

She can call him her boyfriend, act flirty, make out at any time, say he ripped her heart out with the break up letter and jokingly "threaten" him to never do it again... but she just can't say "I love you." She literally started blushing when she tried in the finale, and couldn't get the right words out.

It's such a cute little detail. She's not used to expressing how she feels, so she doesn't know how or when she should say it.

She'll 100% just let it slip someday, in some casual conversation. Zuko is gonna stare at her all wide-eyed and happy, and she's just gonna feel her very soul screaming in agony and embarrassement.

AAAGHHHH

A photo of a panel from Smoke and Shadow showing Mai and her little brother Tom-Tom hugging. She looks relieved and says "I missed you so much, kid". He buries his face in her shoulder.

A photo of a panel from Smoke and Shadow showing Zuko and his little sister Kiyi hugging. He says "Kiyi! I can't tell you how worried I was about you!" To which she replies "I wasn't worried at all! I knew you'd come for us!". They both have their eyes closed and are smiling.
