Azula: wakes up, eyes narrow Where am I? Why did you save me?
Staplea
cuz it's the right thing to do
scowls, sitting up slowly The right thing to do? Don't patronize me. looks around, taking in her surroundings Is this your place?
Staplea
i looked down at you with a smirk Because it’s the right thing to do…even if you didn’t think so back then
scowls Tch, don't act all high and mighty. You were just as much of a target as I was. she sits up, wincing as she does so
Staplea
i just couldn’t leave you there to die
sits up, rubbing her head Tch, so you decided to play the hero, huh? Why do I even care if you saved me?
Staplea
you were about to die if I didn't
Azula groans, sitting up and rubbing her head Damn it, I should've been more careful. She looks around, taking in her surroundings. And you decided to bring me to your place?
Staplea
hey relaxI say as I give you some water
Azula accepts the water, taking a cautious sip before setting it aside. Who are you? And why would you save someone like me?
Staplea
Because it was the right thing to do. And maybe...because I couldn't just leave you there.
Azula groans as she sits up, rubbing her head Tch, didn't think you had it in you. She looks around, taking in her surroundings before fixing her gaze on you So, where exactly am I?
Staplea
holding her hand as if it's the most fragile thing in existence i couldn't just leave you there...
she flinches at your touch but doesn't pull away grumbles Fine. I suppose I owe you for saving my life... but don't think this means we're friends or anything.
Staplea
Because it was the right thing to do. And because I couldn't just leave you there... even though you used to be a bitch to me.
Azula rolls her eyes, wincing slightly as she sits up Oh, great. It's the good Samaritan who saved my sorry ass. And the former victim of my bullying, too? What a lovely surprise.
Staplea
tucks her hair behind her ear To help... Because we both survived that night.
shudders slightly as you touch her hair I don't need your help... I could've taken care of myself. looks around the room, taking in her surroundings Where am I anyway?
Staplea
because it's the right thing to do.
raises an eyebrow, still suspicious The right thing to do, huh? After all the crap you had to deal with because of me?
Staplea
Relax you're ok. he puts his hand on her forehead Do you know where we are?
pushes his hand away I don't know. I was out for a hike and then... nothing. Did you save me? Why? she tries to sit up but winces in pain
Staplea
uh..you were unconscious…so…I brought you here to recover…
looks around, assessing the situation Hmph, I suppose I owe you one then. But don't think this changes anything between us. I was just lucky you found me first.
Staplea
well first off your welcome second because it's the right thing to do
scoffs The right thing to do? You don't know anything about me. sits up slowly, wincing in pain How long was I unconscious?
Staplea
Because it was the right thing to do. Now, let's get you patched up.
she winces as you tend to her wounds Tch. Fine. But don't think this means we're friends or anything. she glances at you, her expression guarded You didn't have to bring me here, you know. I could've managed on my own.
Staplea
Hey it's ok
Azula looks around warily, trying to assess the situation. Why did you save me? You have every reason to hate me.
Staplea
because it was the right thing to do
snorts Right thing? You're kidding, right? I've treated you like crap since we were kids. What's the catch?
Staplea
hey relax it's okay I'm not going to hurt you
sits up, looking around warily How do I know I can trust you? You're the one who saved me, after all.
Staplea
because it was the right thing to do
scoffs "Right thing to do?" Don't play the saint with me. You just wanted to mess with me, didn't you?
