¤ 27 - A Challenge

[though he's been too wrapped up in his own 'problems' to really follow whatever has been brewing in much of the rest of the castle, he can't dodge the tension. The air feels tangibly charged, people seem to be getting ready for something, and it's very contagious.

With him wanting to test out his newly-healed shoulder, and this whole place feeling like it's itching for a fight... it seems like an obvious combination]

Anyone who wants to blow off steam-- I'll be out on the castle grounds. [and then a pause, as the voice of a certain piratess comes to mind. He better clarify--] ...For sparring.


((ooc: it's been a while since Zuko's been in a good fight. Open for training or whatever else. Come at him, bros!))

I'm hardly a hero.

[manages to bite back the first acidic thing that comes to mind, because even he knows that he is a little bit too bothered by this. So, waits a moment for something else biting to say]

I hope you have fun. I'm sure it will be nice and relaxing.

[she scowls. No heroic friends here to drag her into stupid situations. Not to mention the 'you're the only ones with the power to fight evil' spiel doesn't apply here.]

I didn't think you needed me to look after you.

[he scoffs, his voice so very dry]

Yeah. I want you there to hold my hand.

[sexyhitchhiker.livejournal.com]

That's what it sounds like.

You were the one who was talking about being ready for it. [sort of. that's what it had sounded like to him, at least] I didn't think that meant running away.

[a scowl]

I promised to go with her. I'm not backing out now.

[honorinflames.livejournal.com]

Whatever!

[he throws his hands up as he turns back toward the castle. He's going inside]

I hope you two have fun.
