Then why doesn't she try and prove it to him she changed? Not with Katara or anyone else.
Just them. Can she even manage to prove to her /brother/ she isn't who she used to be?
Katara was never involved to begin with. She was watching their Agni Kai, until Azula tried to »
Strike her down because she was failing at besting Zuko.
So, putting her in an asylum is cruel? Yet when she and Ozai tried countless times to /kill/ him it was completely excusable?
His own father and sister. People that were supposed to love him, yet wanted nothing more »
Does she expect him to believe otherwise? Has Azula /ever/ given him a reason to think otherwise?
He won when Azula disqualified, and dishonored herself by attacking Katara.
He should of never allowed her to be released from a straightjacket where she belongs.
Yet Zuko still managed to find Aang nonetheless. He was successful in finding the Avatar, and successful in defeating Azula and becoming the Fire Lord.
Even when all the odds were against him he managed. Can't say the same for his sister, can they?
There's no way she »
She doesn't expect him to believe that, right?

Well, as much as she likes the moon, it was starting to get late. If she'd like, Katara's always welcomed »
— closure they had in Ba Sing Se was enough to let her be willing to understand him deeply, until..
But now things have changed greatly. And maybe, just maybe, having feelings for her past enemy, and now a trusted friend, isn’t so impossible.
Really their position on Fire Nation business. It would only cause his generals to start arguing. .
Well, she was willing to understand that his Nation had hurt them both. Taken away their mothers. Even if it was under different circumstances, the feeling was the same. . »
The Fire Lord continued to just watch as Katara walked around, checking her balance before the sudden misstep, causing the younger bender to fall.
Zuko couldn't hold back a smirk, even though he hadn't laughed. Something that probably wasn't surprising. . . Zuko didn't really »
Risk his life wasn't something he regretted. It was just, the right thing to do. Even if it meant that he came closer to dying than most would be comfortable with.
