               ❛well, you said it. i won’t fool you twice.
                 and that’s not because i can’t; it’s because
                 i don’t want to.

                                        i’ve let you fool me so many
                 times. and… all i did at the boiling rock was
                 prevent you from hurting a FRIEND. then you
                 threw us in prison, so i guess you never really
                 considered us that.❜

                                       “ After all that’s happened,
                                       I’m not sure I can believe that. “

               Hands curl into fists, body tilts
               so she appears to be leaning 
               forward, towards her, her – 

                             what to call her…

               “ Oh, Ty Lee, ” it almost burns
               to say her name again so loosely,
               “ you know how I feel about that
               word. ” but perhaps she doesn’t.
               “ I needed you for my cause, 
               so I picked you up and used you
               until I realized you’d overstayed
               your welcome. And then I … 
               terminated our … agreement. 
               Or maybe that was you. But I
               never promised you anything – 
               and I guess you never promised
               me anything in return, did you ? 
               So what am I to expect ? ”

                             voice is venomous, and it
                             stings to listen to her own
                             words. a part of her screams
                             it isn’t true, but the other
                             part tells her to shut her
                             mouth and leave.
