012. Skinny Love
Ty Lee sits with Mai, in a tizzy about overanalyzing Azula again. It has become incredibly tiring to hear about and Mai has had it with their anxious mutual crush.
"Just tell her how you feel about her," says Mai, looking Ty Lee directly into the eyes. "I'm getting so bored of this drama. You're nervous and it's really not a good look on you."
"How? I don't know how. I've never been in love with somebody before. What do you even say? What if she kills me with lightning? Or worse! Or worse! What if she doesn't like me back?"
"I have no idea how that could be worse than dying," Mai says.
Ty Lee blushes. "It's worse because it would be kinda sexy to be killed by her and I can't be humiliated and heartbroken if I'm dead."
"Decent reasoning," says Mai with a small sigh. "Get up. Go tell her. Right now."
Ty Lee stands against all better judgment. She clenches her fists and takes a huge deep breath and decides to go give it a shot.
Once she makes it halfway up the street she changes her mind and just goes home.
She can't do it.
