Chi-Blocked

Ty Lee had been wanting to come over fairly often in recent weeks- and often, she ended up spending the night. It wasn't as if Azula minded at all; on the contrary, she quite enjoyed the company. She also liked that Ty Lee was continuing to request visits, even after... well, everything. It was as if she really wanted to see Azula. That was what she claimed, at any rate.

Putting aside the (very dull) book she had been idly flipping through, Azula awaited Ty Lee's arrival.

OOC: Crappy and rushed post is crappy and rushed! :D

She gripped her shoulder slightly. Ty Lee didn't touch the pressure point she knew was there, but the thought...oh, the thought was there. But just that one spot wouldn't do much good, once Azula felt it pressed she'd move away. Ty Lee quickly stroked it. "With you...anywhere, really."

The idea was a bit overwhelming, really. Ty Lee normally didn't entertain such thoughts, they weren't supposed to be there. Azula was the princess, her friend. You didn't do that to friends. You just didn't. Yet...Ty Lee bit her lower lip. It "sobered" her somewhat.

Azula felt the squeeze, and curled tighter into the chair.

Ty Lee stroked her shoulder before moving slightly around the chair. Eventually she stopped when she was facing Azula's back. She leaned over the arm of the chair, placing her hands on Azula's back.

Ty Lee started to move her hands up and down, rubbing them, over Azula's back. She could have easily disabled her body within a minute but Ty Lee didn't, wouldn't (It'snotright. Friendsdon'tdothat. Friends don't try to scare their friends away from their jbos, either.) but Azula was her friend. She would wait, if she would do it at all.

Azula pulled her arms tighter around herself, wedging her head more firmly against the back of the chair.

"It's alright, now. Doesn't that feel nice?"

"It's not all right."

"Well...it'll be okay, don't worry."

"It won't."

She leaned forward more, kissing the top of Azula's head. "It will."

I'm not going to cry. Not even a little bit. "You don't know what you're talking about."

"I'm not as smart as you, Azula. I'll never be. But I know about this." She continued giving Azula the backrub.

"You're trying to manipulate me again. You're trying to get me to trust you so that I'll act weak." She took a deep, almost shuddering breath. "Do you just want to laugh at me, Ty Lee? Or maybe you want to brag- is that it? Run off and tell all your friends exactly how many times you've made Princess Azula cry?"

"Azula, I don't. I don't and I won't." She felt her breath. It would be easy...so easy. She bit her lip again.

((May I use the chiblocking later? I mean, if it comes to that. I don't quite know what but yeah...))

"Then are you just looking for a good excuse to leave? Without me wiping my memory, of course; I'm sure you'd find it very satisfying to see me off-balance and slightly insane." Her voice lowered suddenly, losing its biting edge. "Are you hoping that I'll eventually hate you? Are you afraid that I'll try to kill you if you leave under any other circumstances?"

OOC: Y SHORE. Just out of curiosity, though- why does she want to do it?

She stopped, her voice quiet. "No, Azula. The answer's no to all of those questions."

((Ty Lee's thinking about it because a) Azula might go all "grr, not listening to you" and it would be the way to make her listen (she'd stay around till after it wears off, too) and b) she doesn't know exactly why she wants to, except that she does. My brain is failing me at the moment but she does have her reasons.))

Azula sighed heavily, still not changing her position.

"... Look, you can sit down if you can find the room."

OOC: Oh, Ty Lee. D:

"I don't think there's any." A lie, Ty Lee was known to be incredibly flexible.

((She means well. D: She just doesn't...think all the time.))

A fact that Azula obviously knew very well. "Fine, then. Don't. I don't care." Essentially another lie, really.

OOC: ... But her adorableness makes up for it. XD

She didn't reply. Friends don't... Ty Lee started again, her hands tracing lines to the spots she remembered when she was younger. "It'll be okay, though."

((XD I love how all three of the Dangerous Ladies are so MESSED up yet...we love then all anyways. XD ~~Well...Mai might be debatable but still. Oh fandom.~~))

Azula scoffed lightly. "'It'll be okay'. I don't even know what you're talking about anymore. Those are just empty words."

OOC: Well, really, in terms of "messed-up-ness" (that's TOTALLY a word)... Azula is pretty far ahead of the other two. XD But Ty Lee's identity issues are major win, so... ~~Mai-haters make me sad. D: Especially those who obviously only dislike her because she gets in the way of Zutara lovins'.~~

"No, they aren't." She couldn't help herself, she pressed her hands down quickly. Friends don't-You can't.. Moving them into the right positions. "I'm...sorry."

((Hands down. XD But Mai and Ty Lee aren't exactly normal themselves. Mai being so detatched from everything, more so than Azula. Ty Lee's identity issues, her problems with her sisters evolved into "my looks are one of the only things I can make my own" idenity and etc. Mai is truly the only neutral character on Avatar, she'd fight on any side. If Zuko was on it. Or if she's bored. But...I can see how her personality might be a turn off, not just because of her making Zutara not-canon.))

"What are you doing?" Azula growled, jerking away from her in surprise. "Get away from me!"

OOC: I actually think the comparison between Mai and Azula is really interesting- the whole "detached" issue; I mean. Gahhhh, all three of them should have been on the show more. D: ~~Oh yeah, I wasn't saying that *everyone* who hates her only does so because of Zutara, but some people certainly seem to. :/~~

Ty Lee pounced, for lack of a better word, on her. Quickly, she finished it. "Please, let me talk. You can't move so...Uh, it'll be easier?"

((Mai's detatched and so is Azula, but their degrees ars so...different yet so alike. :/))

"I was listening just fine. Let me up this instant! I promise you, I won't listen to a word you say until you do." There was a slight note of panic in Azula's voice. The first time Ty Lee had done this, she had been extremely angry beforehand, and all her attention had been focused on fighting. Now, however... the fact that she had absolutely no control was fully registering. Ty Lee could do anything she wanted, and Azula wouldn't be able to stop her. Ty Lee could kill her.

OOC: And I think Mai's detachment is much more conscious- and could be eradicated much more easily. With Azula, it's probably there for life. D:

"I can't, even if I wanted to." Ty Lee heard the fear in Azula's voice that was...well. Different. Strange. Not...she couldn't say it was totally unpleasant, for some reason or other. "Azula, look. I'm right here, no one will find out about this and I'm not leaving. Just relax, listen to what I have to say and it'll be okay."

One of her hands was wondering down Azula's arm. She could do anything.

((Yeah, you're probably right.))
