[ She thinks for a moment, trying to decide. ] Not.. really. I think I told him he was my most important person before we even realized it was romantic, then I didn't even have to think about it when he asked me out because I was already planning on talking to him. It's been really natural and gradual with us, but that wasn't always the case with past boyfriends.
Yeah. Just wanted to make sure he was still asleep. The last thing I want to do is make him nervous or think I'm trying to push for too much too fast. I just really want to tell him how much I care that he cares.
[She stretches out her leg, propping her boot up on the back of the seat in front of her, then crossing an ankle over that.]
It's probably a super boneheaded question. This is just the first time I've ever really been serious about someone. I don't want to mess it up, so...figured you might know. I mean, you know Mercury pretty well.
One of them was Flynt, so we really just had a casual relationship, it wasn't like.. that wasn't about love. We were friends with a lot of chemistry, but it wasn't.. I don't think it ever would've worked out like that. Neither of us wanted it to, I chose him because I couldn't handle something serious. Which is why I broke it off with Battler, because he... he made me feel like I could open up to someone again, and I didn't want that. Not after I lost Zuko. And Zuko we... hadn't quite gotten to wanting to marry each other but we had discussed not ruling it out as a possibility one day before I lost him.
[ She smiles warmly, though Yang can't see it but it's probably obvious in her voice. ]
I told him actually. Sort of. We were joking around because I was going to the Dream Docks with Sun, and we were planning on having him be there when I woke up so he could kiss me awake. He kept joking about stealing the ice queen's heart and I told him he already had. I looked so surprised I told him it was okay if he pretended I hadn't said it, then he said he was just surprised because he hadn't realized I felt the same way.
[Yang's smiling too, but a little more subdued. It must have really sucked to just wake up one day and realize he wasn't there anymore, and that's a severe understatement.]
Like when we all tried to visit the cafe he was working at, incognito. You were so cute about it.
[She chuckles, tucking the communicator comfortably between her ear and shoulder.]
Those sound like really nice memories, even if things...didn't quite work out. I guess it's no wonder why we keep coming to you for advice!
[ She misses him. Even while loving Sun, she still misses Zuko. That's not ever going to change, just like Sun's always going to have a place in his heart for Blake-- his Blake, who he was with here. It's why she isn't worrying about another Blake showing up- because she knows that they're different people, both her and Sun and any future Blake or Zuko. Even if there'll be probable bumps in the road. ]
You are always welcome to come to me for advice. You know I love telling people what to do.
[ Even if it's in a friendly, well-meaning and not bossy way. She loves it when people actually listen to her, okay.. and she's gotten better at taking jabs at herself, clearly. ]
It was a long time ago. So I guess it's only natural!
[Her smile is wide, but slowly quiets.]
...I wish I knew how to stay, and guarantee it. I wasn't really sure I could be happy here, but now...with everything... I dunno. This is the happiest I've been in a really long time. A really long time. And you're a big part of that reason too. So I hope we keep staying friends.

Hold on, some bikini models just walked in.
[She waits to see if Mercury twitches or sits up. He's sitting still, though, so good. He's asleep.]
Was it a big deal the first time you used the L-word around Sun?

Me too, Yang.
