The Visit part five
I can't seem to write clothes anymore (more nudity)
Ursa however, was royalty born and bred, and it would take a lot more than the mention of a teenage lesbian Ménage à Quatre to derail her train of thought; this ability is not gender neutral though, Iroh would have been rendered utterly speechless, and Zuko may have spontaneously combusted in an explosion of firebender hormones.
“So Suki, you mentioned a proposal, that last visit must have been something special?”
Suki, amazingly, blushed even redder than before.
“Well there was a lot of kissing but we didn’t go that far honestly” Suki took a deep breath “I uh, I wanted to but the timing was bad and……and I’m not ready to have a baby yet. I mean I’m Capitan of my unit and Sokka is away for most of the year.” She hung her head in embarrassment. “And! He’s at university, surrounded by all those Fire nations hussies the rest of the time, uh, no offence.”
“None taken.” “None taken.” “None taken.”
“I’m just worried that he’s going to forget about me.”
“Is that all?”
“Mai!” Admonished Ursa “I apologize for my countrywoman’s astounding insensitivity.” The near livid Suki was somewhat mollified. “But she does raise a valid point, why didn’t you just use birth control?”
Katara’s confusion must have shown to because Ursa addressed her as well, however unknown to the girls, someone else was paying very close attention.
“Well it seems It’s not-"
“Tea me!” This seemed important, so Katara quickly bent the tea straight into Toph’s cup “T’nk you.”
“Ahem, well it seems it’s not well known outside of the fire nation, but we have a medication that lets you……have fun.” Ursa gave a throaty chuckle and a languid smile. “Oh Agni, it lets you have fun.”
Katara almost choked.
“Waitaminute, you mean Ozai!?”
“Well not really much after Azula was born, and I was too busy on the run when I was banished, but during that honeymoon period.” She made a low moan that Ty Lee would remember well on those rare lonely nights and made a certain eavesdropper almost swallow his tongue. “He was great in bed.”
“Ozai? The Ozai? Cheekbone city, gold eyes, goatee down to here, great hair and genocidal tendencies, Ozai?”
“Say what you will but there’s something to be said for intensity, and he did spearhead the Earth Kingdom invasion to get my favorite candy.”
“What?!” “What?!”
“Well it got him a second date.”
Behind the screen the Bridge Between the Spirit World and Ours mulled these words over. Intensity, that was the key, that and it sounded like Katara didn’t want to have babies yet; Katara could handle all the baby stuff, but intensity would be another thing, he tried to look intense, but in reality he just looked tired, short sighted, and constipated.
Did the Avatar state count?
“Um, Aunty Ursa, speaking of Azula, I don’t want to be a bother but…….how is she?”
“It’s ok Ty Lee, she’s actually been improving. Zuko and Iroh took her to see the Sun Warriors and she’s been a lot better since then.”
************************************************************
“Ok, you overgrown Gecko. There’s a new boss in charge here, and you’re going to get me what’s mine.”
The dragons circled, both thousands of years old, with minds powerful beyond human comprehension, and they watched as this strange little human stood and talked at them. The blue dragon slowed and stopped in front of the chattering primate, it’s mind probing and scanning all the way.
“Yes, that’s right, I am your new quee-"
CUT THAT OUT.
Later if Azula could be coaxed to talk about it at all she would say there was no noise, no voice, just knowledge that that is what the dragon wanted you to know, as if it just decided you would remember that it was communicated, and never, ever, forget it.
“Or else what?”
And then it showed her.
Azula was very fast, perhaps second only to an airbender, and even then she wouldn’t be far behind, but she had never run so fast nor had a need so pressing before.
“Uncle! Uncle! Start the airship, I’ve got to open an animal shelter! I have to save puppies and I have to do it NOW!”
***********************************************************
The girls tried to digest this new information, it didn’t come easy, Toph somehow was the first to come to grips with it.
“So…..” She bent an armrest out of the bath and steadied herself. “So Crazy Girl is nice now?”
Ursa winced at the nickname but really couldn’t find fault in it.
“Well Azula isn’t crazy anymore and she still isn’t nice really.” She brightened “But she’s not evil anymore either. I mean she’s not trying to take over neighboring countries, or kill Zuko. Oh and she has been seeing that nice young earthbender girl, I mean boy, you know the one with the hair? That’s a start right?”
“You mean Haru?”
“That’s the one!”
******************************************
Haru whistled a jaunty little tune as he walked to pick up his girlfriend- heh, girlfriend- it had a nice ring to it, no more nasty rumors in the locker rooms for him, and she was a princess too! There was the slight issue that in the right light, if he hadn’t had a good nights sleep, there was the tiny risk that she might be just a little bit prettier than he was, but with proper care that risk could be managed.
“Hey honey, time to hit the salon!”
“I told you call me honey one more time and I will-”
Azula’s back went ramrod straight and her pupils narrowed to pinpricks.
“I'm taking you on a trip, and we are going, now!”
“Oh kaaaaay, uh, let me just pack.”
“No time! Run, just run damn it!”
Half an hour later, for the first time in centuries a dragon flew over the palace, circled for a few minutes-some people thought it looked like it was searching for something- and then left. By general consensus it was considered a good omen.
