Food {BACKDATED TO 4/12/09}

As a princess, Azula was used to being respected-- worshipped, even. She was used to people doing things for her, often without her even needing to ask. What she was not used to, however was people doing things for her out of the kindness of their own hearts. So naturally, she was a bit suspicious when Kasumi-- a random community member; one who wasn't even from her world-- offered to cook an elaborate meal for her. Expecting respect from an acquaintance was one thing. Large favors, however, were an entirely different story. Off-worlders usually had to be threatened for those.

Despite her cynicism, Azula was in her room and waiting at the time she had told Kasumi to arrive. She was fully-dressed, and her hair set perfectly in its usual topknot, crown in place. Normally she wore her robe in the privacy of her own room, but when expecting a visitor-- any visitor-- there was no reason to be anything less than perfect.

Kasumi bowed. "Yes, princess. Is that all you need me for...?"

"I didn't really need you for anything in the first place. You offered; I didn't ask."

"Ah, yes. I meant 'would you like me to do anything else for you today'?"

Azula stifled a yawn. "No; that'll be all."

"I thank you for allowing me, princess." She bowed herself out.
