Round 1 part 1: Telltale’s The Walking Dead (video game series) / Avatar: The Last Airbender (tv show)
Tumblr media
Lee Everett & Clementine:
Clementine is a small child Lee finds alone in the zombie apocalypse, and he takes her with him to help her find her parents-- despite him knowing all along from a message on the answering machine that they are dead. As the game progresses, she ends up getting groomed by a strange man who ends up getting on the same radio frequency as her on a walkie talkie her father gave her, who tells her he knows where her parents are. She ends up running away to find him, and ends up getting locked up in a hotel room. In the process of going to find her, Lee gets bitten by a zombie. He goes through hell and high water to get her back, the player even having the option to have him cut his arm off to try and stop the bite from spreading. At the end of the game, he ends up handcuffing himself to a radiator so he can't hurt her when he finally turns. This is the first of four games in the series, the rest following Clementine, but their relationship is so impactful over Clementine's development and the narrative that I think they could win.
Aang & Zuko:
Zuko has the BEST redemption arc ever (duh) and the best part of his friendship with the ga(a)ng after he becomes good is his friendship with Aang lol. Aang is so bubbly and Zuko is so angsty but also so awkward. literally they get stuck in a glue trap together and Zuko's suggestion is that they have an existential crisis together. plus before his redemption, Aang asks Zuko if they can be friends, he's wanted to be pals with him since the beginning of the show! And then they hug in the finale!!!
