Zucest ass tweet spotted in the wild

About a month after his father’s downfall at the hands of the Avatar, and within the first week after his crowning ceremony, Zuko had visited Azula in the asylum. He was wary of it, he didn’t necessarily want to, but it felt like the right thing to do. It was the moment for amends, Aang had reminded him, with a pointed look at the folder resting on the corner of Zuko’s desk. Inside, was a meticulous report of Azula’s diagnosis so far, her behaviour, her diet, everything. A falcon arrived at his window every other day with a detailed account of it, and Zuko promptly put it in the folder. He’d not read any of it yet.

Well, I can't say I ship it but I think it is hella valid and I completely understand where the Zucest shippers are coming from. The bedroom scene like lmao come on, and Grey even admitted she voiced that part seductively on purpose. Plus (and people can deny this all they want) it is canon that Azula loves Zuko more than anyone, aside from their father. It's not hard at all to imagine this crossing from the platonic realm to something else, given how messed up and starved for affection these two kids are.

I've definitely read some Zucest fics that I really enjoyed (some of which are yours of course lol) and am generally not opposed to the ship. It's just not something I'd go out of my way to look for. I do admit the kink potential is super hot though, and I'm in agreement that Zuko would have all the same nasty kinks as his father. It's similar to Ozula in a lot of ways, just without the creepy age gap and huge power imbalance.

Also again, I'm fine with anything that upsets the toxic lesbian Azula "truthers" and the antis, and Zucest kills two birds with one stone.
