Day 325 [Open]

Who: Zuko, Colin, Ikuri, and anyone else!
Open: Open!
When: Day 325
Where: Around the Bastion, Dragonfield
What: Time for some Talks
Format: I'll match
Warnings: Honor. Also fury, and not much patience.

It's been a few days since the disaster of Crona's death. Zuko would like to think that that's given her time and distance to process it, but most of her feelings haven't changed much since their return. If anything, she's just forced herself to focus on other things, and avoid dealing with her grief, and her guilt. Not that she's realized it.

It probably doesn't help that she hasn't gotten a decent night's sleep since. But she's used to that, and if she's going to lose sleep, she can at least do it standing guard instead of tossing and turning. She's been taking regular shifts guarding the prisoners, and she's taken to carrying her swords with her within the Bastion, as a precaution not only against escape attempts, but any threat of outside attack as well.


And the swords are also for Colin. Once she's finished a guard shift, she'll be looking for him to take him up on his challenge, and also for Ikuri, for the talk she thinks she's clear-headed enough now to give.


[Later...]
Besides all that, she is still a dragon mom, and that's probably the only thing that's gotten her to settle down at all. Later in the day, she can be found near dragonfield attempting to teach Kizuna how to breathe fire. In addition to a short demonstration, this seems to involve lying down on the ground with the little dragon on her chest so she can feel Zuko's breathing.

So far it doesn't seem to be working, but neither of them appear discouraged. For Kizuna's part, it may be because she doesn't know she's supposed to be breathing fire.

Oh. I don't know how to play that...
bakegarasu: (nothing can stop you now)

[personal profile] bakegarasu 2015-07-25 04:08 pm (UTC)(link)
... If you want to.
twinked_witch: (Wait what did you just do???)

[personal profile] twinked_witch 2015-07-25 04:57 pm (UTC)(link)
... Right. We'll handle that in time...
bakegarasu: (when there's nothing left to lose)

[personal profile] bakegarasu 2015-07-27 03:43 pm (UTC)(link)
So's running. Maybe I should see if people want to have a race.

[personal profile] twinked_witch 2015-07-28 04:25 am (UTC)(link)
.... I don't know. Honestly, I don't. But I have to be. I... I can't let people down more than I have already.
bakegarasu: (always in the end)

[personal profile] bakegarasu 2015-07-28 06:21 am (UTC)(link)
I don't think she could beat me.
bakegarasu: (nothing can stop you now)

[personal profile] bakegarasu 2015-07-28 05:41 pm (UTC)(link)
What's the fun in that?

[He manages a little bit of a grin.]
bakegarasu: (the lesson today)

[personal profile] bakegarasu 2015-07-28 06:05 pm (UTC)(link)
I don't know. Who's fast around here?
bakegarasu: (when there's nothing left to lose)

[personal profile] bakegarasu 2015-07-28 06:15 pm (UTC)(link)
Maybe we should organize a race. ... But some people have supernatural abilities, so maybe that's not fair.
bakegarasu: (heroes rise again)

[personal profile] bakegarasu 2015-07-28 11:41 pm (UTC)(link)
I wouldn't either, but it wouldn't be fair to people who do mind.
twinked_witch: (Veluna what did you just do)

[personal profile] twinked_witch 2015-07-29 01:58 am (UTC)(link)
You, perhaps. Crona...

[Megaera just sort of stops there.]
twinked_witch: (Wait what did you just do???)

[personal profile] twinked_witch 2015-07-30 04:30 pm (UTC)(link)
... No. No, Zuko, it wasn't. I could have saved her. I could have...
