   Summary

   Lo’ak’s eyes lift. “Promise?”

   Jake lifts his pinky. “Pinky promise.”

   Lo’ak’s smaller pinky wraps around it, serious as anything.

   “See?” Jake says softly. “That’s another thing others can’t do—but we can. And pinky promises never break.”

   Lo’ak nods solemnly. “Ever?”

   Jake squeezes his finger gently. “Ever.”

   .　 . • ☆ . ° .• °:. *₊ ° . ☆

   Jake Sully loves his son. He just doesn’t always understand him.

   Told primarily through Jake’s POV before, during, and after The Way of Water, this fic explores Lo’ak’s childhood, rebellion, and the cost of silence, carrying its consequences forward into Fire and Ash, where love, guilt, and survival are anything but simple.
