Kya, age 12: *nervously walks up to Katara* Mom… I think I’m changing.
Katara: What’s going on, sweetie?
Kya: *looks around nervously* I’m getting hairy and taller and stronger, I feel weird when the moon cycle changes, and I’m always craving red meat. I…
Katara: Sweetie, that’s nothing to be afraid of, it sounds like you’re just going through puber—
Kya: I’M TURNING INTO A WEREWOLF!!!

Here is my personal list of young characters who, from my perspective, suffer from parentification or play parental roles, whether for their siblings or even their own parents. Some cases are more obvious than others, and in some cases it is necessary to analyze their history and context to fully understand their situation. There is no specific order, I just list them as they come to mind. Maybe at some point I'll go into more detail about why I selected each one, but for now, this is simply a list. Some may even be half Headcanon, so don't despair:
Fiona Gallagher (Shameless)
Lip Gallagher (Shameless)
Katara (Avatar)
Bianca Di Angelo (Percy Jackson - Rick Riordan)
Hylla Ramírez-Arellano (Los Héroes del Olimpo - Rick Riordan)
Katniss Everdeen (The Hunger Games - Suzanne Collins)
Beth March (Little Woman - Louisa May Alcott)
Stiles Stilinski (Teen Wolf)
Dean Winchester (Supernatural)
Thalia Grace (Percy Jackson - Rick Riodan)
Tyler Galpin (Wednesday - Netflix)
Luke Catellan (Percy Jackson - Rick Riordan - pero al principio, antes de llegar al campamento)
Lord Anthony Bridgerton (The Bridgerton - Julia Quinn)
Sirius Black (Los Merodeadores - Fanon)
Lord Ned Stark (A Song of Ice and Fire - George R. R. Martin)
Dick Grayson (Batman - DC)
Elsa (Frozen - Disney)
Tadashi Hamada (Big Heroe 6 - Disney)
Nani (Lilo & Stitch - Disney)
Brandon Foster (The Fosters)
Tory Nichols (Cobra Kai)
Ruby Matthews (Sex Education)
Maeve Wiley (Sex Education)
Matilda Wormwood (Matilda)
Jack Frost (Rise of the Guardians)
At this moment I can't think of more, I will continue adding as I think of more characters.

Just running an Azutara idea by you. Bloodbender!Katara with Werewolf!Azula?
Whenever the full moon comes out, Katara thinks she’s the monster everyone should be afraid of. She’s a bloodbender and, under the full moon, she can practically feel people’s blood all the time. Because of this, after the war, she hides away whenever the full moon comes out to avoid accidentally bloodbending anyone.
When she starts to date Azula, Katara feels bad for leaving on the full moon because Azula doesn’t know about her being a bloodbender so Katara thinks that Azula thinks she’s just abandoning her on certain nights. Katara decides to tell her one night during a full moon and goes looking for her girlfriend.
She can’t find Azula anywhere though, even after searching their room, looking in the throne room, and war room. Katara’s starting to get worried until she hears a noise from the kitchen. In the kitchen is a massive black wolf, eating Azula’s mochi supply, Katara’s shocked enough that she doesn’t notice something on the table and accidentally knocks it on the floor, getting wolf!Azula’s attention. Of course, wolf!Azula doesn’t attack Katara and instead knows she’s a friend. Katara spends the night taking care of her girlfriend turned wolf and, come morning, the two have a overdue long conversation.
I really love this idea @waterfire1848 Trauma bonding Azutara!
Have you ever watched Vampire diaries/the Originals/Legacies? If not, I think for this scenario you can borrow two things about werewolves. The first is we’re the werewolf curse is activated once the carrier takes a life (either in accident, murder, war, etc.) the second, the pain of transformation (it is called a curse for a reason)
In the case of Azula, the only person she killed was Aang. Albeit only temporary (thanks to her darling girlfriend). Now in Azula defense, her slaying of Aang wasn’t murder, despite what many in the fandom claim. It was self defense in battle (due to the uncontrolled Avatar state) as well as a preventative measure (Aang was killed after Azula learned that the Gaang was going to invade Caldera city. Azula’s home, during the eclipse which she learned from the EK King).
But no matter how justified (be it war, self defense, or planned invasion) or how Azula rationalized the decision, it would be enough to trigger the curse.
The transformation would be incredibly painful. Imagine the worst pains you’ve ever experienced, then multiply that by 50. Then by another 30. The bones all break and shift. Rearranging in new and foreign forms.
As such, it may serve as “confirmation” to Azula that she is indeed the most seer her mother believed her to be. Damn Ursa for giving Azula that false impression, but Katara would dissuade of her of that notion.
In regards to Katara, she would of course be traumatized by the very nature of blood bending. Turning someone’s blood against them, and making them a puppet to her whim. Katara would be horrified. Both at the power itself, it’s temptations, and how it makes a monster out of her. Or at least do Katara believed.
Now when Katara confront Azula in the morning the two have chat. Azula for one is incredibly surprised that Katara stayed the entire night with a werewolf that could kill her. If she at all doubted that Katara could love a monster like her, then it was gone. Azula would even prove to herself that she can exercise control even in wolf form. She could stop herself from hurting her love. Which was the best gift Agni or whomever had ever granted her.
Azula would begin the “long overdue” conversation first. She’d talk about what triggered the curse, how long she’s had it, and the transformations. Azula would probably try to hide just how painful the transformations are from Katara. Not wanting her to worry over something she can’t fix. Azula let’s loose a Freudian slip, and admits that Ursa was right. That she is a monster.
Katara understands the feeling her girlfriend is going through completely. She tells her about blood bending, and how she becomes a monstrous maleficar every full moon.
Azula would assert that her girlfriend is no monster. She controls this blood bending, doesn’t let it consume her and hurts no one. Despite how easy it may be to fall to the temptation of using it, Katara remains strong in her principles. Azula would tell Katara that she is not a monster. Privately though, Azula would think that Katara controlling the literal blood of her enemies is insanely hot.
Katara would also say in response, that if she isn’t a monster, than Azula isn’t either. Despite whatever she may claim. Azula would protest of course but Katara would shoot back that Azula didn’t attack her as werewolf last night, then she exhibits the same control as Katara. Katara is quite literally throwing Azula’s logic back in her face. If both girlfriends say the other is not a monster, then neither is. Privately though, Katara would wonder just how Azula’s wolf strength could be… applied to the bedroom.
Tearfully, the two girlfriends embrace. Their hearts at last beginning to mend, and new start for the two prodigious benders. Promising to be their for one another. On every full moon, and on every night thereafter.
Love finds a way! Especially Azutara love. It’s enough to overcome trying to kill each other during a war after all 😉
I’m not sure that adequately described just how painful the werewolf transformation is. Below is a link to a TVD clip on YouTube that showcases it.
