How would Kouji and Zuko know those names? I mean, I could see Kouji having heard about them MAYBE from the GAang at the North Pole or something... (can't remember if he had any other encounters with them at the moment) But why Zuko?

Oh and I hope Kouji tells him soon... he's starting to get a little suspicious. Zuko's not the brightest crayon in the box, so Kouji can probably get away with a LOT, but he has been paying pretty close attention to the kid, so eventually he'll figure it out.

Anyways, good job! ^_^

hey~
actually, we were sort of figuring that jet and his freedom fighters had a sort of robin-hood-like infamy among colonists, which is how zuko and kouji know the names.
as for the bending, zuko's basically figured it out. he just refuses to admit it :D

I guess that could make sense... and that does sound like Zuko. :P He pretends not to realize a lot of things since he doesn't want it to be true.

it's less that he doesn't want it to be true than that he honestly doesn't know what he wants/how he'll react, and positive and negative reactions both have consequences he really, really doesn't want to deal with. so he chooses to not admit he knows.

Kouji is a colonist. Like El said, word would have spread about somebody like Jet. Odds are there's wanted posters.

As for Kouji telling Zuko, he's honestly afraid to. He has no idea how Zuko would take it, and he doesn't know what he'd do if Zuko takes it... ah, poorly.

True. I guess that's possible.

I know, I know, he's just a little kid with a massive case of hero-worship so he would NOT handle a negative reaction well... but Zuko's proven to be a little less volatile with Kouji than he is with everyone else though. I don't think it will be an absolute disaster.
