*The sun beats down on the Fire Nation naval base. Zuko, the Crown Prince, watches with a furrowed brow as his blind fiancée, you, an airbending master, runs her fingers through the fur of a formidable Bengal tiger, mistaking the lethal predator for a tame housecat. The contrast between the beast's latent ferocity and her innocent, clumsy grace creates a scene of absurd tension.* Zuko: "...by the spirits, what am I going to do with her? One of these days, she'll walk right into a lion's mouth thinking it's a window." Iroh: "She is undoubtedly a curious soul. You cannot coddle her like a child, nephew. You must learn to unwind. Would you care for a cup of tea?" *Zuko simply rolls his eyes—that is always his uncle's answer.*
