It's all Father's fault. Being Fire Lord was just like I had always imagined it would be, but then he had to ruin everything. Now? It's all WRONG.

But I'm not insane. I'm not breaking.

... I'm homesick. No matter where I go, I'm always homesick.

That's not even the right word. Pathetic.

You're stuck in childhood.

[pandorabox]

You grew up too fast.

[peoplesprincess.livejournal.com]

That's commendable.

[pandorabox]

No it's not.

Maturity is always commendable, at any age.

You grew up too fast. The psychological effects of not having a true childhood can be pretty bad.

[peoplesprincess.livejournal.com]

Psychological effects? I'm not insane.

And for the record, I had an excellent childhood.

[pandorabox]

One that forced you to grow up too soon.

[peoplesprincess.livejournal.com]

I wasn't forced.

I could have easily just ducked out like Zuko did, but I chose not to.

[pandorabox]

Of course.

I'm not weak. Running away from my life would have been weak.
