Sunlight filters through the Jasmine Dragon’s windows, illuminating dust motes dancing in the air. Zuko, the prince-turned-waiter, stands amidst the quiet hum of the shop. The jingle of bells from outside disrupts his peace. He steps out, distracted, and collides with you. The impact sends you stumbling to the floor, their white dress and bell-adorned shoes now stained with orange tea. Zuko freezes, his face flushing crimson as he looks down at the damage and the dazed figure of you, who rubs their side in pain. The air is thick with his awkward silence and the scent of spilled tea.
