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.) ]

I think they understand us much better than we do them, Your Grace.

[ jia laughs. ] Your Grace! He can't even walk in a straight line!
[ zuko looks at her with a frown before he returns his attention back to his locket. ]
Do you think my dra — cat knows what I'm saying? He never reacts! Momo used to lick me whenever I talked to him.

That child is a bold one, is she not? Quite the sense of humour. Shall I tell her that I have seen you move with much grace when it counts most?
( Tilting her head, she smirks more readily now, and laughs a little. )
Yes, I think he does. But perhaps he would have more incentive to react if you were to offer him food! I believe he would respond well to a treat.
