SORRY THIS IS SO LATE

What is it?

IT'S OKAY :P

I have to go home. There have been a lot of assassination attempts in the capital, and father has agreed to step down without a fight and allow me to quell them.

[drcuddles.livejournal.com]

Why would you go back?

[peoplesprincess.livejournal.com]

I need to fix it. We can't win the war if we don't present a strong, united front; we can't present a strong, united front if there's internal turmoil.

[peoplesprincess.livejournal.com]

It's important. Father has had three attempts on his life; everything is in chaos.

[drcuddles.livejournal.com]

No offense, but doesn't he deserve it?

[peoplesprincess.livejournal.com]

He's the former Fire Lord; I'm not going to allow some assassin to take him down.

[drcuddles.livejournal.com]

It's stupid to go back.

[peoplesprincess.livejournal.com]

I have to; it's my duty.

[drcuddles.livejournal.com]

What if it's a trap?

[peoplesprincess.livejournal.com]

It's a risk I'll have to take. I'm putting him under house arrest.

...

Are you still at work.

[drcuddles.livejournal.com]

I am still at work. One of my younger patients went into cardiac arrest this morning so I'm here monitoring him.

[peoplesprincess.livejournal.com]

All right; I was just curious.

Thank you for your hospitality. I--

Tsk. Thank you for your hospitality; it was appreciated.

[drcuddles.livejournal.com]

You're very welcome, Azula.

... Promise me you'll be careful, alright?

[peoplesprincess.livejournal.com]

Yes.

You don't want me to go.

[drcuddles.livejournal.com]

Of course I don't want you to go. I know this can't end well.

[peoplesprincess.livejournal.com]

I don't know if I want to go, either.

Don't tell anyone I said that.
