Zuko keeps herself pretty busy around the Bastion. She likes to get involved in whatever's going on--not because she's a social butterfly, as anyone who talks to her can figure out, but because she feels it's important. Even if there isn't anything special going on, she's unlikely ever to be found lazing around. Her typical mornings have developed a certain routine to them.

A) Pool
This is one of the closest things Zuko has to a hobby, and she still approaches it entirely too seriously. Well, aside from the fact that she has yet to obtain a swimsuit and is in fact swimming laps in pants and a halter top. She's not remarkably fast or doing any fancy strokes, but she can make quite a few laps before stopping to rest, unless someone wants to interrupt her.

B) Training Building
Somehow, Zuko seems to keep picking up students. At the moment, it's just Rin and Rob whom she trains with any regularity, and she makes herself available at the training building for part of the morning if they or anyone else is interest in practice.

Personally, she prefers to train out of doors, so until anyone shows up, she can be found outside the building running through firebending forms (sans any actual fire).

C) Lake
Around midday, Zuko picks up some food from the distillery and makes her way over to the lake. There, she sits down crosslegged to eat, tossing crumbs of her bread out to the turtle ducks. It's about as relaxed and leisurely as Zuko gets doing anything, and a good time to grab her before she sets some other task for herself.

It's a good idea in general. That way you can at least run if there's any trouble.

Like when the whole place was shaking?

[That had been scary. He had been forced to carry Takane down the stairs of the apartment due to her passing out.]

Yeah. I guess you were here for that.

Yeah... I had to carry my girlfriend out of the apartment so we could get to safety with everyone else.

I'm surprised you managed that.

[Zuko stop being rude.]

[Don't worry. Haruka is used to far worse treatment.]

I know! I'm surprised, too! But I didn't want to leave her there, either.

[Wait, why did he have to carry her?]

Is she sick, too?

Mhm. Not in the same way I am, though. Her condition makes her pass out. She's tired all the time, no matter how much sleep she gets.

That doesn't sound... natural.

It's not! But as far as she's told me her doctors were never able to find out a reason for it happening. Some neurological disorders just... don't have a set explanation. The brain is funny like that.

[Neurological disorder?]

Could it be something she has to work through? I got sick once because I was... conflicted about something.

No. I mean, I wish it was! She could get better and enjoy things and not have to worry about being so tired all the time! But when the brain gets sick like that, most of the time there's no easy fix. If any at all.
