Short A/N: Came up with the idea while watching some old episodes. Probably very confusing and none too clear. If you have questions, PM or review and I'll explain.
Warnings: Very subtle spoilers.

He walks away, and Azula thinks nothing of it.

Azula remembers clearly now, as the flesh around her left eye begins to burn and peel.
"They are," he says softly, "my own."
And Zuko will let no one have them.
