Just a little Zhu Li x Bolin fic, hope you like it. Depending on the reviews of this I might expand it.
Bolin was reading a comic in the break room called 'Agni'. On the cover was a man with lightly tanned skin with long black hair and a pair of chops. He wore a red shirt with gold shoulder pads and black pants. He carried a pair of war hammers with emblems of a dragon coiling a phoenix on them.
Bolin smiled as he read the pages as the door opened. Zhu Li walked inside as she then saw the comic and gasped. Bolin looked up at her as he then asked her, "Do I something wrong?"
Zhu Li then said pointing at the comic, "You read Agni? Isn't that a kid's sort of thing?"
Bolin got up as he said to her pointing accusingly, "Now listen here, there is nothing kiddy about Agni. He is a great hero bearing the scar on the middle of his forehead from his father's hand. He helped the people of the world along with the Moon Priestess and the Black Sword. Sure, he's just a boy who is blessed by the embodiment of fire, but the point in being is that this is a great series. And the fact that the three combined make the ultimate team in comics is even better. So, don't go saying that this is a kid thing. I has fundamental lessons for young and old alike. Stopping the Quads, standing up against the abusers of fire and learning to respecting the Light Spirit's advice. All these lessons and more can be traced to the real world."
Zhu Li then smiled as she said to him, "Perhaps, I was mistaken. Should I take that copy and get it signed by the author. He's a friend of mine."
Bolin's eyes bulged out as he asked, "You know the author 'Blue Fire' who writes and draws this? I thought he was just a legend."
Shaking her head Zhu Li then said to him, "Nope, he's quite real. Tell you what, if you ask no questions I will get it signed by him and even a quote."
Bolin nodded as he handed it over to her. Zhu Li then heard her name be called by Varrick as she said to him, "I'll return this to you tomorrow."
Zhu Li walked into her apartment as she kicked off her shoes and began to get undressed. She put on a long sleeve two sizes too big blue shirt that ended mid thigh. She then sat down pulling out from her bag Bolin's comic.
She was at an art desk with incomplete Agni art and scripts. She opened up the comic and drew a sketch with pen of Bolin earth bending. The white background on the opposite side of the cover served a good place to sign the comic. She drew Bolin's fire ferret Pabu in the sky with fire coming from his bottom feet. And Agni swinging his hammers and the three saying, "Let's save the world!"
Zhu Li then said below the little doodle, 'Blue Fire- I am happy to have a fan, perhaps we can meet some time.' A thumbs up was drawn beside the signature as Zhu Li leaned back in her chair. She smiled as she said with a single tear of happiness, "I finally have a fan who truly understands my work."
