It's Tyzula Week 2015! I'm very excited, and here are my daily kissy drabbles for it, each corresponding to the day's prompt. Hope you like it!
Luck
Ty Lee did not know why she was so nervous about the invasion tomorrow.
Azula would do perfectly and wonderfully and there would be no way that things would not work out perfectly and wonderfully like Ty Lee imagined. But she had that feeling. The one that an extremely clairvoyant person such as herself worried about endlessly when she felt it. It made her skin prickle, her heartbeat arrhythmic and her throat sore. It is like how old people feel a storm in their bones; Ty Lee feels the worrying future within herself.
"Hi," Ty Lee said brightly and Azula did not say anything which worried Ty Lee to the core. The princess was not as talkative as herself, yes, but Azula was the bad kind of quiet. "How are you?"
"As I always am," Azula replied, gazing at the wall. Ty Lee made a tiny face of discontent. "Perfect and in control of the situation."
"So, uh, g-good luck." Ty Lee's palms were sweating and she could not quite understand it, because nobody ever made her feel so uncomfortable socially as Azula.
She liked to pretend it was the unreadable expressions and kind of potential murderousness. But Ty Lee truly could not deny the feelings choking her from the inside. Not that she had a chance with Azula. Better odds of being struck by lightning.
"I don't need luck. I am prepared. No, I don't need luck; I am Princess Azula of the Fire Nation. Better." Azula hesitated and Ty Lee really did not know what to make of it.
"One time I stole a Pai Sho tile from this kinda fancy sorta gambling place. It was my lucky charm for a long time," Ty Lee remarked as her lips contorted into a smile.
"And you're going to give it to me?" Azula cocked an eyebrow, looking like she was curious, but certainly did not want the gift.
"No. I kinda lost it." Ty Lee blushed. That part was definitely true, and she knew Azula could tell if she was lying. "I have something else maybe..."
And she seized her chance, because there was no reason not to do it. Ty Lee would rather take this leap of faith than burn with desire and keep silent forever.
The kiss was... well received.
Ty Lee really liked how her lips felt.
Azula believed in exactly zero of Ty Lee's superstitious nonsense...
...but that kiss certainly did give her something other than a throne to win for.
