#ash!

when: late march

where: the rooftop (near the chicken coop)

having settled back into the building, and her new role, it'd taken some time before she was able to find the time to get up to the rooftop. or was it that she'd finally found a dosage of painkillers that might affect ashton's system. or was it really that there was now so much less to do since the building had continued to observe a complete and total lockdown. there was evidence to point to all three options.

the sounds and smells that had come to accompany the building's lower floors had all but disapated up here. everything was sweet, almost as though she'd walked up to a nature preserve. "okay." the door to the rooftop slammed behind her with a start before she looked over at her best friend with a sunny smile. "let's see this chia."

There's the concept of "true mates" in my A/B/O, so it was just Mai's body naturally not wanting to have Zuko's baby.

A lot of Mai's character is being quiet, stoic and the perfect noblewoman. As equal as society can be, she's still an underage omega, she can't really fight her parents'authority, she can't fight the Firelord's authority. Love doesn't mean much during the war. Ozai chooses Mai for Zuko, and he allows Azula to fool around with anyone she wants until he finds an omega from a good family line to marry her.

Mai isn't a fan, even when she's aware that the only reason Ozai might allow Tyzula to mate is because of Ty Lee's family's tendency to have lots of pups. Ty Lee isn't a fan of the concept that if Ozai allows something official, it's because he'll expect her to pop out litters and litters of pups. However, in the end, both Mai and Ty Lee are still nationalist imperialistic girls just enough to do whatever Ozai tells them.

(Really, they don't change so quickly. The whole betrayal is about not letting Azula kill her brother and not because they believe the war is wrong. I think of the three of them moving away from War!Fire Nation's values.)

Here's the thing: it's consequences of Azula's upbringing and her experiences in the war. She's as happy as she can be, she heals as much as she can heal. Considering everything? Mai is glad that Azula is still alive. It hurts, and it's complicated, because both were hurt and all. They try their best. Azula feels safe with Mai, there's that constant nagging in the back of her mind that makes her wonder sometimes. She has her bad days.

Azula grew up in a terribly abusive household, she was sent to the war at 14 (Mai's not much better, with not that great of parents and being taken to the war at 15).

I have AU ideas where things are much better for them, but it's no war AUs, Ozai is less of a bitch AUs.

It works for them because they fit, they're meant to be, and they're much better parents to their children than their parents were to them. Actually the closest Azula gets to create deep bonds again is with her pups and with the Gaang's pups.

I'm a chronically sad guy, I want to make other people sad.

And you did it...you managed to destroy me...

There's the concept of "true mates" in my A/B/O, so it was just Mai's body naturally not wanting to have Zuko's baby.

Nobody wants to have Zuko's baby.

Ozai chooses Mai for Zuko, and he allows Azula to fool around with anyone she wants until he finds an omega from a good family line to marry her.

Ozai is an idiot, couldn't he just leave Mai for Azula? I mean, that would be better so Mai doesn't "rebel" against her Alpha, it makes sense, Ozai!

However, in the end, both Mai and Ty Lee are still nationalist imperialistic girls just enough to do whatever Ozai tells them.

:(

Really, they don't change so quickly. The whole betrayal is about not letting Azula kill her brother and not because they believe the war is wrong. I think of the three of them moving away from War!Fire Nation's values.

I know! It's unreal that in comics they immediately stop being imperialist, I mean, bro, wtf?

They try their best. Azula feels safe with Mai, there's that constant nagging in the back of her mind that makes her wonder sometimes. She has her bad days.

We all have bad days.

Let's just hope Mai and Azula get better, my girls deserve it.

I have AU ideas where things are much better for them, but it's no war AUs, Ozai is less of a bitch AUs.

I hope it's fun and smooth! You know, saying that they "accidentally" fucked and had a baby, everyone panics or something.

a very nice accident! typical of Latin America.

It works for them because they fit, they're meant to be, and they're much better parents to their children than their parents were to them.

I wonder what their dynamics are like with their puppies.

Actually the closest Azula gets to create deep bonds again is with her pups and with the Gaang's pups.

I imagined that! Azula is the great mom/aunt who never disappoints them and spoils them a lot.

She falls to her knees for her cubs, regardless of the fact that some are not hers.
