yes, a new chapter!!!! And what a dramatic one too! I loved how you had Mai and Ty Lee join them. The confrontation against Azula being witnessed by Zuko and the others, and the burn too. Mai being healed - those scenes were just hilarious. 'sibling things' exactly, and 'stabby'? :)
Chit Sang's bit here! I liked how he seemed gently antagonistic here - some fics have him as being very respectful to Zuko, but you've written him great, with that respect but also that gentle almost judgement? Because it *would* be something to prod over, the prince of your nation turning traitor. And Mai coming to Zuko's defense!
Then Zuko and Mai's confrontation/conversation - oh! This line: "And Mai hates how her mask of indifference is breaking, and how it only ever seems to break for Zuko, but she can’t keep it together." - very impactful (and also, it's exactly why I love them too, that they're able to be their true selves among each other even if, in this case, it's a little 'inconvenient' for poor Mai)
Also - just poor Ty Lee. I liked how you had her small break down on the gondola. Very much in character, I think. And the last line of this chapter. Just hilarious!
This was a great chapter, honestly! Yet again, can't wait for the next, but as always, no pressure! <3
