Of Burnt Badgermoles and Broken Dragons

Azula never expected to leave the asylum; she never, ever expected anyone to care enough about her. But that's not the reason–it can't be. No one cares about her, and no one ever will. It makes no difference to her where she rots. [AzulaxToph] Spread the love, people :3

11. Accepting

Sometimes, Toph hates being Chief of Police. She hates the long hours and grinding work. She hates having to be read every document (and paying someone to do it), and she certainly hates the criminals that waste her time.

But, that's not what she hates the most. Toph hates how her daughter accepts it all. She remembers that her own mother was barely there for her as a child, and she resented her for that. Does her own daughter feel the same?

Lin's happy laugh as she ran to her mother dispelled all such doubts.

"Momma!"

"Hello, my little badgermole..."
