Azula and Long Feng, after the war. Not romantic.

I'm really racking up karma points, but I don't think people would respond if I hopped on the band wagon.

I would respond! Because I am a slattern that way.

---

There is a man. In green, a deep green that's almost black, like a pool in the depths of the forest where no sunlight ever goes. Like jade cut in the shape of minister's robes.

There is a man, and he is stone. Hard, sharp stone that would cut her flesh to hold, and she grabs him anyway, and he smiles like a piece of elfshot.

"Hello, princess." His words are flint-chips, and his jade robes have not yet made her bleed.

"I'm told you aren't well," he goes on, and the words are pretty but there is an edge to them. Arrowheads, old arrowheads found in stone ruins, made by a people who didn't worship the sun but the secrets under the mountains.

"I'm sorry to hear that," and his words are bright, golden, and glittery and do not weigh as gold should.

She finds her own words, bright little darts of white fire that sear her tongue to speak. "You're a liar."

"Yes," he agrees, and it's jade, it's truth.

Every spark of her being pulses with hate, and there is fire at her fingertips, ( ... )

I'm such a petty woman. *GLEE.* And I'm glad Azula's still... vibrant in her hatred, she's not quite gone. Though it'll take her a long time to get back.

I adore this line:

His words are bright, golden, and glittery and do not weigh as gold should.

I'm going to steal it for other things. Bwahaha.

(I'm making a meme post, soon, then!)

I have no idea why, but crazy!Azula (and half-asleep!Azula) bring out the pretty in me.

Mmmm, that was a fun line to do. Well, the whole thing was fun. I am probably keeping "There is a man, and he is stone." with me forever, because so much yes.

(Ooooh, shiny! And I will comment on the Urzai soon. Really. Just very distracted right now.)

I just love the way that line worked, sounds like something from a myth.

Arrowheads, old arrowheads found in stone ruins, made by a people who didn't worship the sun but the secrets under the mountains.

Oh hey, anthropological hints. So, there's a Sun Warrior equivilant in the Earth Kingdom... huh... *is thinking about Oma and Shu's story and how it doesn't seem to quite mesh* I think your version might work better than canon actually...
