4 ☼ VIDEO / UNSEELIE
[ if you know zuko, his hair is always hanging in his eyes. pulling his bangs up, it's almost as if he's run a hair straightener through it to keep it raised above his head before it thinks to deflate and droop down over his scar. he's as exasperated as he feels, as defeated as he's always been; a little girl with short, dark hair and red feathers braided into it sits beside him in a red coat, threading together blades of grass. ]
[ with his knees pulled up to his chest, zuko holds his hands out, fingers curling into fists, as his voice is a little sharp and exasperated despite his attempts to calm down. his communicator happens to be leaning against a rock in the grass. he's thought this over pretty well. ]
Ugh! [ he almost smacks his forehead. almost. his knuckles turn white for a moment. ] How do you talk to animals? All they do is eat your food and grumble!
[ the little girl beside him laughs, a tinkling sort of sound, as she continues to thread her grass together. sokka leaving has left a rather big void in zuko's life. he's had to turn to his dragon to brainstorm things sokka would readily help him with — and druk sucks at brainstorming. (zuko thinks he's pretty selfish; he's run out of apples to feed him.) ]

no subject
[ zuko wipes the grass from his face, a blade or two remains sitting on the top of his head. plainly: ] It's a creature that doesn't like annoying little girls. Isn't that right, Lumina?
no subject
I don't know, I mean, chocobos like me and I know what people say behind my back.
[She didn't mind. Being annoying was fun. And then to Jia.]
They're really big birds you can ride. Like horses but so much better.
no subject
[ lumina's meant to be on his side. he's found that, like a lot of people, she's team jia instead of zuko. ]
And they don't like little girls.
[ jia pokes out her tongue at him. ]
They sound cool. Do they answer you when you talk to them?
