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

"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.))

"No. Let me go. I order you to let me go!" Her widened eyes strayed to Ty Lee's hand on her arm. "Don't touch me!" she spat.

"Even if I got up, you wouldn't be able to move." She kept her voice quiet, as calm as she could. It was wrong, oh so very wrong. Ty Lee shouldn't have done it. No doubt. Ty Lee ignored her, Azula couldn't move so was not a threat. She moved slightly, pulling into a sitting position and dragging Azula on top of her.

"I think that's more comfortable."

Azula was shaking. It wasn't more comfortable at all. "Get away from me!" Her voice was growing more hysterical by the second- she was struggling to keep herself from completely panicking, but it was difficult.

Oh dear. That wasn't good. "It'll be okay, now. Don't worry. Relax, Azula. I'm not going to hurt you. And, uh, even if I went away you're going to be immobilized at least for a few more hours."

The trembling grew more violent. "Take it away," she breathed. "That's an order; do it now."

Ty Lee pulled Azula closer, trying to make her stop shaking. "I can't. It's impossible," Ty Lee sighed. "It just has to wear off on it's own, I can't just hit it the same pressure points twice so soon. It might damage the qi flow or worse."

"I don't care. Do it." She struggled as much as she could with her arms immobilized. "Let go of me, now!"

"I can't. Azula, you've got to understand that if I mess with your body's functions more than I need to you could die. Your heart might stop, the qi flow could get blocked up and you could die from that. If you just wait, you'll be fine." Ty Lee sighed, she was strong and her grip was hard to break. "It's either this or you end up in the hallway, with or without clothes. Oh and you'll be alive, too, so that's not a death threat."

"What are you talking about? Fix this. Do it, or you're banished." She was breathing very heavily, and quickly. "Get away from me. Let me go!"

Ty Lee's heartbeat was going up. This was not planned. This wasn't how it was supposed to go. What a stupid idea. "Azula, I can't fix it. I told you. If I try, it's almost certain you're not going to make it. The body's systems are delicate and when I chiblock I mess with them. I mess with them too much, too quickly, the person dies. It's just not possible to fix it." She moved a hand to Azula's mouth and, a bit more roughly than she expected, clamped it over.

"I'm so sorry, Azula. I am. Just...quit...struggling."

As Ty Lee covered her mouth, she let out a small, involuntary scream. The shaking got worse, and her heavy breathing intensified.

"I'm not going to hurt you, Azula...trust me. You don't have to shake, no one's going to find out so your reputation's fine. OKay, yeah, I've got my hand over your mouth but you wouldn't stop telling me to do impossible things."

She wasn't panicking about her reputation, she was panicking about her complete loss of control. And Ty Lee still wasn't moving her hand. That was just making things worse. Desperately, she tried to bite her palm.

That hurt so she quickly removed her hand. "Calm down, nothing's bad is going to happen."

Azula calmed slightly as Ty Lee's hand was moved, but her breathing was still quick and shallow, and her continued to glance around, wild-eyed.

"Look...nothing else is going to happen. I'm not going to hurt you or anythin' like that."

Azula's eyes fell on Ty Lee's face. She glared at her. "Why?" she gasped. "Why did you..."

There were times Ty Lee didn't know what to say. This was one of those times. She gave quite a sheepish grin. "Would ya believe me if I said I didn't know?"

The glare only intensified. "You are not my friend."

"You've done not nice things, too!"
