But arguably one of the best and most iconic scenes in the wonderful Avatar: The Last Airbender, is Zuko's apology. <br /><br />https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2Q1dRSh8Idk<br /><br />Does it work because Iroh cuts his apology short? But then he says he forgives him, so it's a full apology. I can see how it's important in Zuko's arc.

(I think this was inherent in your example, but it crystallized for me with the example, so I figured I'd share in case it helps anyone else.)<br /><br />JD Paradisehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07945134213244873038noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13294573.post-73932820650216895252010-10-13T04:34:58.618-04:002010-10-13T04:34:58.618-04:00...fickle beasts, aren't we?...fickle beasts, aren't we?tanita✿davishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01671822274852087499noreply@blogger.com
