POISON

Azula is the most delicious poison Ty Lee has ever tasted. She knows their relationship is dangerous and deadly and probably doomed to failure. Yet, she wants Azula for better or worse. Maybe for worse. Definitely for worse… but Ty Lee knew that from the moment she fell in love with the princess.

Everyone told her it, at least.

But in these moonlit moments together, lying in bed like they are now, half intertwined, breathing in the way the princess smells, Ty Lee cannot imagine tasting something without that sickly sweet poisonous aftertaste of fear and regret.

"You look like you're thinking," says Azula.

"I am," replies Ty Lee, turning to face the princess.

"About what?" purrs the princess.

"If you killed me, I think I'd like it."

They fall into silence.
