Yesterday a man whose name I didn't catch offered to share a glass of wine with me. Since I suspected that he had more than friendly conversation ~~and possible information-gathering on my part~~ in mind, I asked him if he was aware of my age. It turns out that he thought that I was over twenty-one. Now, I realize that I do look a bit older than fifteen, but really- twenty-one is a bit extravagant, isn't it?

... Paris is quite lovely.

OOC: And there's a possibility that one of these miiiiight be sitting on Ty Lee's pillow in the hotel room when she wakes up in the morning. Azula has no idea how it got there, really. >.>

I don't- and I have no intention of finding out. If such a meeting had come to pass, I wouldn't even have had a full glass.

OOC: ... The one-day Drunk Virus? XD

More people should take that approach, I think.

It would have been a short meeting, then.

[...that works! Now how do we get them together...]

Precisely.

I could have lingered.

OOC: ... Spontaneous teleportation. I dunno. :\

~~...stop agreeing with me.~~

I suppose... but still.

[...win. XD And of course they need to pass out together so they can wake up in an awkward position.]

~~Stop saying semi-reasonable things, then.~~

There is no "but still". I would have been in complete control of the situation, as always.

OOC: That's always a given.

~~I'm supposed to be the one who's reasonable.~~

Well, it doesn't matter now, anyway.

[But of course.]

~~I take issue with that statement.~~

It may in the future.

~~I stand by it.~~

That's true. You really should be careful.

~~Of course you do.~~

Oh, please. I know how to handle people.

That doesn't mean it's all right to be reckless.

I'm not being reckless.

I didn't say you were. But you might be in the future.

No.

~~We'll see~~ [deleted] Good.

Why are you so interested?

...because I'm concerned? Just because you're you doesn't mean I want bad things to happen to you.

[locked]

That, and of course I'd rather you didn't do anything that might loosen your lips.

Well that's quite foolish of you, isn't it?

{LOCKED}

I am far more intelligent and responsible than you give me credit for, little girl.

You think I should want something to happen to you?

[locked]

Can you blame me for not wanting to take a chance? And you're barely older than me.

Why not?

{LOCKED}

My age is irrelevant. Given all that I have accomplished, implications that I would allow myself to be coerced- or manipulated, or tricked, etcetera- by anyone or anything is simply insulting.

--what do you mean, why not? I don't want bad things to happen to anyone.

[locked]

It doesn't matter what you've accomplished. You can still make mistakes, especially in an unfamiliar situation.

I mean just that- why not? If I wanted to, I could make very bad things happen to you. I already have made very bad things happen to other people. What sort of "superhero" are you if you don't want me out of the picture?

{LOCKED}

I don't allow for mistakes, and I never go into any situation without adequately preparing myself ahead of time.

Well, first of all, how would that take you "out of the picture"?

Second, there are a lot of people who are dangerous and have done bad things. That doesn't mean they deserve everything that could happen to them. There are things I don't think should happen to anyone. You know that already, because you already know what one of those things is--losing all your friends.

[locked]

Third, while I'd thank you to not use the term to describe me in unlocked posts, I'm not a "superhero."

And you have made mistakes.

It's people like you that I take advantage of, you know.

{LOCKED}

For all they know I could have been using the term metaphorically. You certainly act like you think you're one often enough.

Hardly.

...

[locked]

All the same, I'd rather not give people any more "hints" than are strictly necessary.

Memories.

[And wow, I don't know whether it's the secret from last night, the conversation, or just my dirty mind, but I read "take advantage of" in a completely different way than Azula meant it.]

And for your information, I know nothing about "losing all my friends".

Stop bringing that up. And it wasn't, strictly, a mistake.

OOC: There's no reason it can't be because of all three! :D ~~And how do you know that's not how she meant it? >.>~~
