{LOL LOCKFAIL} She loves me.

...

...

Hm.

I will have to consider this idea a bit more, it seems. It's difficult too... expel from my thoughts at times. Thankfully it hasn't distracted me from my duties, but occasionally during my downtime it'll just... "hit me", I suppose one would say. It's always quite unexpected, though not entirely... unpleasant. It's a... well. It's a nice thought, really.

One thing that I unfortunately am having a bit of trouble with is remembering that it all could dissipate at any moment, without any warning. The first time I was unprepared, which was a mistake- it caused me to react in a very embarrassing and wholly unacceptable manner. I had made similar slip-ups in the past, but none of that magnitude- and I am quite unhappy that it went that far before I fully realized what I was doing. Have I really grown so... hm.

... Despite this, I truly do care for her. Love her. Very much. It's almost... more emotion than I know what to do with, really; certainly much more than I am used to experiencing. But I must learn to keep the weakness- the additional weakness; the "weird" sort of weakness- out of the picture. {/LOL LOCKFAIL}

I will be turning fifteen not so long from now. Originally, my goal was to have the Avatar captured and destroyed by my birthday, but that was before we made plans to wait for the comet to arrive before launching a full-scale attack. Ideally I would have liked to be crowned Fire Lord beforehand, as well, but I am willing to wait just a little bit longer.

I have never really understood the purpose of birthdays- that is, making such a big deal out of them. I will be of marrying age at sixteen, so doubtless Father is going to start spending quite a bit more time this year searching for a suitable match for me. I can only hope that he'll leave me out of it as much as possible; the entire process bores me.

Additionally- for anyone who may have business with me to attend to, I will most likely be spending much of tomorrow at the royal hot springs, and will therefore be unreachable.

OOC: That last note is my way of saying that I'm moving into my dorm tomorrow and probably won't have time to obsessively check my email the way I normally do. ;)

Happy birthday, Azula! They marry quite early on your world, don't they?

[peoplesprincess.livejournal.com]

Not really.

[roseandsparkle.livejournal.com]

I suppose it wouldn't seem strange if that's what you're used to.

[peoplesprincess.livejournal.com]

Of course it's not strange. Sixteen is a perfectly reasonable marrying age.

Happy- [laughing continues]

((OOC:... Sorry. Ran just had to reply to this.))

Re: [Voice]

And just what is so funny?

OOC: <3

... Despite this, I truly do care for her. Love her. Very much.

[still laughing]

I knew it! I win!

[peoplesprincess.livejournal.com]

How did you-

[pandorabox]

Love isn't a weakness, Obaa-san.

[peoplesprincess.livejournal.com]

Of course it is- but what does that have to do with anything?

OOC: ... And of course she's hoping that that was just a coincidence and he can't *really* see her lockfail.

[pandorabox]

You said you loved her--

... ah.

You need to lock things better.

((Awww, poor Azula...))

[sassygirlsrock.livejournal.com]

Didn't I told you that you are really bad at lock things?

Love can be a scary thing too, but, if something, it make you stronger.

You're going to get married at sixteen?

(OOC: I finally have a new computer! :D *major squee*))

OOC: Sweet! :D

[peoplesprincess.livejournal.com]

Yes, I will get married when I am sixteen.

[hotpinkaura.livejournal.com]

...

Oh, yeah. Your birthday is coming up. I nearly forgot.

((She's totally avoiding to mention the "love' part.))

[peoplesprincess.livejournal.com]

Yes.

OOC: And Azula is very glad about that. XD

[hotpinkaura.livejournal.com]

..Yeah. How could I have forgotten?

[the-air-corsair.livejournal.com]

Ha ha ha! Wonderful to hear!

[peoplesprincess.livejournal.com]

You are enjoying this, aren't you?

[the-air-corsair.livejournal.com]

...I'm sorry.

Azula, I'm glad about this. Finally admitting it is nice to see. It means you're human, even if not humane.

[oceanicbutterfly]

Happy birthday!

[As a gift, she's gotten Azula a shiny new intentionally not commenting on the love thing.]

[peoplesprincess.livejournal.com]

... Right.

OOC: And if she were anyone but Azula, she would be grateful. :P

[oceanicbutterfly]

Oddly enough, I'm turning fifteen soon, too.

I think parents mainly make a big deal about it because they're excited about how their children are growing up. Then the kids get used to birthdays being a time for cake and presents, and...

Incidentally, I'm working on that tech list, but it'd be helpful to know what your world already has.

I mean, I guess I could start with "pointy stick" and work my way forward, but do ya really wanna read that?

[peoplesprincess.livejournal.com]

I don't have the time to list all of the technology available on my world. If you're really so desperate for this deal, I trust you'll do what it takes to make it happen.
