Summary
Mai doesn’t know what to say, has no idea how to express the feelings she won’t even let herself acknowledge. When Azula finally turns to look at her, Mai has to suppress a flinch at the coldness in her eyes.
“Why are you here?”
Mai could say that she simply wanted to check on an old friend, that she felt guilty for Azula’s fate, that she genuinely missed her, that something in her needed to see Azula again no matter how painful the memories.
She responds only, “I don’t know.”

Summary
Zuko remembers an evening several winters before, sitting on a shore not unlike this one. Suki had pointed to the ravens circling the bay, her green eyes cold and bright in the fading light as she told him of the strangeness of their life cycles—no sea raven ever remains in the same colony it is born into; once fledged, the young sea ravens set out alone across the sea, wandering for years before they finally nest in a new colony far from their own.

Summary
One day, three years after Azula banished her father to the Earth Kingdom for having the gall to cry when Zuko got his face burned off, Azula shows back up in Mai's life. Avatar—what Avatar—that's still a year away. "I have a bit of a problem," is all Azula says, and in Azula-speak, "a huge problem" is an unsightly crease on her pants, and "a bit of problem" meant that your house is on fire.

Summary
“Bitch. You can say bitch.”
“I’m not going to say that.”
“It’s accurate. And no great betrayal of your deeply held feminist principles if I give you my explicit permission to do it. Really. You can call me a bitch.” She points to herself. “Bitch. It’s easy. You try.”
“No! – I’m not going to call you a bitch, Azula.” She sighs. “It’s almost like you want me to hate you.”
=========
Frustrated with life at the snobby, elite Ba Sing Se Academy she'd won a scholarship to attend, Katara, a fourteen year old would-be revolutionary, begins sneaking out of the upper ring at night to cause trouble. It only gets really dicey when the great-granddaughter of the deposed Fire Lord Sozin, a girl with razor-sharp eyeliner, gets involved.
or: getting caught shoplifting with the girl you hate most in the world can be a very moving experience, actually.

It's wrong to say, but Toph misses the old days. The trail of fires Ozai and his little cult left across the city like breadcrumbs for her team to follow. She hasn't found as worthy a challenge in years.
Until one night the challenge finds her.

Summary
Azula is always the first name, the gut-check response, the thought Ty Lee flees to when she’s uncertain. In the temple of her mind Azula is the statue at the center, golden and immortal with a taut, metallic smile.
Ty Lee is nineteen. Azula is forever not.

Summary
"Why don't we make this more interesting?" Azula cooed.
Every instinct in Suki's body told her that this was a trap - nothing good would result in playing cards with her captor, the Fire Nation's crown princess. However, she also couldn't shake the feeling that she didn't have a choice in this matter. And maybe through their game, the enemy girls may find some common ground.
