Summary
One thing that Katara had come to appreciate from working at the Emergency Care center was repeat patients. People who injure themselves a lot, always forget to make doctor’s appointments, or just generally don’t want to see a doctor unless things get to ‘oh shit’ levels. Regular patients are few and far between, so Katara has formed a sort of kinship with the ones she recognizes. She’s never excited that people have to keep coming back, she’d rather everyone stayed healthy enough that she never had to see them again, and she feels a little guilt along with the comfort of seeing familiar faces.
So, when the boy her age who keeps coming in with skateboard-related injuries becomes a regular, Katara has mixed feelings about it.
Or, Katara is a nurse and Aang keeps coming in with skateboard-related injuries. We all know what happens next.

Summary
“Because he’s a monk, genius. He works on Air Temple Island.”
Katara’s mouth rounds. She’s not entirely sure why she’s shocked. Aang being a monk seems rather obvious, now, given the shaved head and tattoos, but she supposes it must be his age. Every Air Nomad monk she’s met— of which there hasn’t been many, admittedly— has been old, gray, and wizened.
And, objectively, she thinks, glancing at him. Gray eyes flick away. Not as good-looking.
Or:
This is a love story.

Summary
Yuusaku's gaze flicks to him and then hurriedly away, his breath coming quick and shallow, hands white-knuckled at his thighs, twisting the fabric of his trousers around his sweat-damp fingers.
"I—" he says, and he chokes on it, blinks hard. "With women, I... I can't."
