AND I MEAN FIRE NATION BREEDING IS TOTALLY WORTH TALKING ABOUT TWICE.
Especially since as you say they seem really fucking good at it. Even when they produce dudes shaped like teapots – vide Iroh - (well, until his prison workout session), said dudes have numerous compensating qualities. So, yeah, the thought of Mai especially being every bit as completely what her parents were hoping for – at least physically - as Azula (well, at least, she’s certainly what Ozai was hoping for) ... man. And then she does make it all the way to Fire Lady, and they’re so very pleased she has done everything they could have asked of her.
And Zuko, total sport. Poor Zuko.
the fic is about three times when Ilah surprised Azulon
YEAH. I was about to quote basically that entire paragraph back at you, but I think you should just write the fic. Azulon, hearing Ilah singing, out in the Earth Kingdom on his sister’s campaign. Oh man, Iroh kneeling in the dust in the courtyard, the smell of the incense they’re burning in the house to ward off the fever, his father coming home down the dry road. YES YOU SHOULD WRITE THIS SO MUCH.
ALSO: DEAD GAY GREEKS, AND THE PLAGUE AND THE DREGS OF THE WINE. OH, MAN. MY HEEEART.
I was going to say that I wanted to write this
WELL I FEEL YOU SHOULD TOTALLY DO THIS FIC TOO. There can’t really be too many versions of Iroh in Ba Sing Se. And if fic writing is a hall of mirrors anyway it can totally refract different versions of random comment-thread canon, right? I FEEL SO POSTMODERN.
