{ACCIDENTAL VIDEO POST} AZULA'S ADVENTURES IN AMERICAN TELEVISION

[bentflame]

[Here we have Azula coming down the stairs at Cuddy's house, going into the kitchen to make herself a cup of tea before going back home. While waiting for the water to boil she stops to turn on the television, just because she can. Flipping through the channels, lalala... there's a baseball game, some cop show, an stylistic sequence of someone firebending-- WAIT A SECOND. She flips back to that, and curiously begins to watch what is, of course, the intro to the television show Avatar: The Last Airbender (which I looked for all over YouTube and COULD NOT FIND; it's all fan-made openings, sob).]

[When the opening titles end and she speaks, she sounds annoyed-- and genuinely surprised:]

It takes the Avatar's side?

That's a big surprise.

[peoplesprincess.livejournal.com]

It is, actually.

[pandorabox]

Not really.

[peoplesprincess.livejournal.com]

You say that because you hate me.

[pandorabox]

It's not surprising you're considered the villain.

[peoplesprincess.livejournal.com]

But I'm not a villain.

[pandorabox]

You're a tyrant.

[peoplesprincess.livejournal.com]

No I'm not. Stop making silly judgments without knowing anything about how I rule.

[pandorabox]

You're the one forcing yourself onto other nations.

[peoplesprincess.livejournal.com]

For a lot of very good reasons that you could never even begin to understand.

[pandorabox]

For your own ego, you mean?

[peoplesprincess.livejournal.com]

To expand our nation's borders. To prove our might. To spread our technology, prosperity, and ideas throughout the entire world.

[pandorabox]

Like I said. You ego.

[peoplesprincess.livejournal.com]

That's not ego.

[pandorabox]

Yes it is.

[peoplesprincess.livejournal.com]

I think you're missing the part where I didn't start this war.

[pandorabox]

I meant you, as in your entire nation, Azu-baka.

[peoplesprincess.livejournal.com]

The people of the Fire Nation are proud, not egotistical.

[pandorabox]

Like I said, you're the one's forcing yourself onto other nations. How can you think they're actually okay with this?

[peoplesprincess.livejournal.com]

I never said they were.

[pandorabox]

Then why do you still do it?

[peoplesprincess.livejournal.com]

For the same reasons I already gave.

This war has been going on for one hundred years, and it's nearly at its completion. If it stopped now, for any reason, everything up to that point would have been a waste-- sacrifices made, lives lost, and all.

This really is better for them too, you know. The Fire Nation is by far the most superior country on my world, in all ways. By spreading our glory, we're bettering the other nations as well.

[pandorabox]

Have you actually been around to see what kind of effect you're causing on the other nations?

[peoplesprincess.livejournal.com]

Yes, I have.

[pandorabox]

I would ask you if it was a good one, but you'd say yes anyway.
