I think the icon proves my suspicious, but I see a more cunning young man in this Zuko than in other takes. I want to say I'm reminded of 'speak softly and carry a big stick', despite the lack of stick. But he speaks softly, and his sister seems to find him a fool.

*curls around Younger!Zuko* He seems sneaky, more patient, wise. And somehow, it makes me feel like he'll be more deadly?
