[irritated]

out of the two your ex is prefferable

[Even if very awkward...]

[rediscovering]

what you don't wanna meet my dad

[ He's joking. Look at him joke. ]

[irritated]

i'll meet your dad and you can meet my grandmother

not that she's the same but you know

she's awful

[rediscovering]

why

[irritated]

she's always got something to say! about your hair, your clothes, the way you talk, what you do...she's an annoying old bat who always has to have the last word.

it's a good thing kaoru and i are nothing like her and took after our dad

[The joke is that Hikaru and Kaoru are exactly like their grandmother and nothing like their dad at all.]

also she has stupid hair.

[Case in point.]

[rediscovering]

do you hate her

[ Zuko, you can't just ask people if they hate their grandmas ghuirskjn ]

[irritated]

[ZUKO YOU DON'T JUST ASK A HITACHIIN THAT!!!

Or anybody. But especially a Hitachiin.]

hating her would only give her more power.

[His roundabout way of saying he doesn't hate her.

But this is Zuko so he should probably say it more directly, he thinks.]

i don't hate her

[rediscovering]

thats rather wise of you to say it like that

[ Oh, Zuko... He was being funny, not wise. ]

[irritated]

it's not about being wise

it's just about being smart. you have to be one step ahead of her and playing into her games means she wants to be hated. you can't give a crazy woman like that what they want.

[rediscovering]

i see.... what does she expect of you and kaoru's futures

[irritated]

doesn't matter. not up to her.

the person that lives the way they want is always going to be the winner.

[rediscovering]

yes thats right!! :)

[irritated]

but aang isn't really like my grandmother or your dad right

he's got that wise monk thing going for him

[rediscovering]

yeah
but he's pretty fun-loving and free-spirited and all
and he has appa with him!!! i know you havent met momo yet either, aangs lemur, hes been here with sokka all this time, but appa is the avatar's sky bison
hes much smaller here but...... still.

[irritated]

sky bison...but just a lemur? not a crocodile lemur or anything?

[rediscovering]

no.....? momo is just a normal winged lemur
what the fuck is a crocodile-lemur??
like a crococat mixed with a lemur??

[irritated]

did you just say crococat?

[rediscovering]

yeah..?
those little green cats with scales on their belly and fangs

[irritated]

what the hell

so canon: the pro wrestler Toph fought, the Boulder, has a pet crococat he loves named the Pebble...

[rediscovering]

[ Zuko uses the Paint app to doodle a sketch — with more effort and concentration than he's willing to admit, hence the time gap between texts — that rather captures the likeness of... a crococat. It's a pretty good drawing off the cuff done with his finger on a screen, too, man he's proud of it, okay

If it were anyone else, one might think it was a joke, pulling Hikaru's leg, but... Zuko's not great at that. This is a real animal. ]

[irritated]

[Hikaru definitely thinks that Zuko is joking.]

you're making this up

[rediscovering]

why would i make up an animal?!
they're not as common as a poodle-monkey or something but some people keep crococats as pets in the earth kingdom
but they're ferocious they could definitely maul a person even though theyre small and cute
a crocokitten could take out a half-grown platypus bear
full grown they can knock a man out!
but theyre soft and fluffy so people like them anyway i guess..

[irritated]

zuko what
your world was crazy and i feel like i could deal with the children committing war crimes

[What a weird limit???]

but all of that? i can't

[rediscovering]

what?!! why is a crococat more shocking than what i've told you about our battles?!
dragons, whatever
but crococats, that's where you draw the line.......?!!

[irritated]

how does a reptile have fur???
and PLATYPUS BEAR?
no.
i can't.
