[ It was quiet. The weather was nice. Azula curled up beneath a tree with her books in the Quad, taking advantage of the lack of others to catch up with schoolwork. She felt like she lacked excitement-- she didn't yet have cause to ruin the Avatar and his friends lives and she didn't feel like killing Zuko just yet.

Zuko.

She sighed as she flipped a page in her textbook. She didn't like that they had managed to get to Zuko. He liked to pretend that he was still on her side but she knew better, of course. She had lost her brother. And while trying to convince Sokka she wasn't all that bad either was a nice plan, she doubted she could ever truly play her part correctly and murder Aang. Though she couldn't exactly say she didn't enjoy the company of the boomerang boy-- something that made her cringe and miss home even more.

Lack of excitement.

She glanced up from her book out at the silent courtyard and flopped back in the grass, holding her book up, lazily reading the text. ]

It's not denying if it isn't even happening! Are you really that crazy to think up stuff like this? I don't even know how that idea formed in your head!

[It doesn't really help matters with how flustered she's getting, completely red in the face and her fists clenched as she watched Azula crumble more of her destroyed plant. The poor pomegranates!]

[ Could Katara really not tell at all that Azula was only saying these things to get this exact reaction? The red in her face almost matched the color of the pomegranate. ]

Could you really not think of any other way to lure my brother over to your side? He is rather easy to manipulate though I don't think you had to use such disgusting methods. Perhaps Sokka gave you that idea-- that boy has such a perverse mind. Do you think if I did with Sokka what you're doing with Zuko he'd turn on you, too?

[watertides.livejournal.com]

I'm not trying to 'lure' him into anything! That's a decision that Zuko needs to make on his own. And Sokka would never do something like that-- unlike you, he actually knows the difference between right and wrong.

Really? I don't think you know your brother as well as you think you do, little waterbender.

[watertides.livejournal.com]

I know that he won't fall for any trick that you might be trying to lure him into. And if you even try anything, I swear you'll regret it.

You'd personally seek me out and do something about it, wouldn't you? Because you care about your sibling?

[watertides.livejournal.com]

[... Oh. Now she gets it. She's also mildly surprised-- Katara didn't think Azula cared about Zuko that much.]

Alright, I see what you're getting at. But like I said, I haven't been luring him into anything-- he's the one who's been seeking me out. It's all been his own choice.

[bitterfire.livejournal.com]

It's his choice now,

[ She fought the urge to hit her. It's not like she really cared about Zuko-- it was just that he was the only one on her side. Well, he was. Originally. She knew how it turned out in the long run but she should have been able to stop that. ]

but if you and your egghead of a brother would have left him alone he would have wanted nothing to do with you! So not only do I have an Avatar to kill, I have a traitor to rid of as well.
