Author's Notes: This is for Maladin whose challenge read as such: "Ursa was brainwashed into a Joo Dee and Azula recognizes her... Azula's reaction to her Joo-Dee-fied mother."
And now on to our feature presentation:
Azula was tired of inspecting row after row of these mindless identical women, each with the same blank smile, each like the one before her and the one after her.
Suddenly, something caught her eye: a woman like the one before, same blank smirk, but, different somehow.
And suddenly, Azula was very glad she hadn't left the task to Zuko.

The lovely woman in red and gold was a surprise for Zuko. Finally he had everything he had lost, or so it seemed, but this time, Mother was as distant as Father, and forgetting herself, Azula reveled in her charade.
Author's Notes: This was an extraordinarily original and interesting challenge, and therefore really fun to do, although I doubt I did it any kind of justice. I may try again later.
So, review and leave me a challenge while you're at it.
