[id: two screenshots from “The Siege of the North: Part 2.″ The first one is Zuko standing at the mouth of a cave, facing away from the viewer and looking out into the blizzard. A speech bubble is drawn so that it looks like he is saying the post above. The second image is Aang unconscious on the floor of the cave with his arrow glowing. End id.]
