[When the audio turns on and Azula starts speaking, she sounds unstable; desperate; crazed, almost]

This is ridiculous. I'm through with the cowards here; they can't even--

[She suddenly stops to yell at a guard that's walking past]

You! When I get out of here, what do you think is going to happen to those of you who turned traitor? And if you don't think I'm going to get out, just ask him why he doesn't come down here to beat me up when I'm not too sedated to fight back properly. Hm? It's because he doesn't want me to escape the guards; it's because he doesn't want me to have a chance of winning against him. He knows that I can take down all of you single-handed and then go on to defeat him, all without breaking a sweat. He doesn't want me to--

[But the guard just walks away, pretending not to listen]

Fine; ignore me. Go back to your quarters and pretend that there's no chance of me getting out of here and doing all the awful things to you that you know we do to trait--

UGH!

...

This is me "keeping you posted", Dr. Cuddy.

[The audio clicks off]

You told me that yesterday, and you still wanted to be kept in the loop for some reason.

[drcuddles.livejournal.com]

I didn't want him to go this far, he shouldn't go this far.

{VOICE}

[peoplesprincess.livejournal.com]

What's your point? How far did you "want" him to go?

[drcuddles.livejournal.com]

Not to cruel and unusual punishment.

{VOICE}

[peoplesprincess.livejournal.com]

Fine; the next time I see him I'll be sure to tell him that you wish he had just stuck to assassination attempts instead.

[drcuddles.livejournal.com]

You and I both know that isn't what I meant.

{VOICE}

[peoplesprincess.livejournal.com]

No, I really have no idea what your point is.

[drcuddles.livejournal.com]

The point was for your father not to treat you like a prisoner of war.

{VOICE}

[peoplesprincess.livejournal.com]

And how exactly was he "supposed" to treat me, in your mind?

[drcuddles.livejournal.com]

He's supposed to treat you like his daughter.

{VOICE}

[peoplesprincess.livejournal.com]

Don't be an idiot; we've never had that sort of relationship. I don't need someone to treat me like their daughter.

[drcuddles.livejournal.com]

And see where that philosophy landed you.

{VOICE}

[peoplesprincess.livejournal.com]

Fact, not philosophy.

[drcuddles.livejournal.com]

Either way, you're here being treated like an animal instead of being with Ty Lee. Let people help you, they only want your well being.

{VOICE}

[peoplesprincess.livejournal.com]

Clearly not.

They'd just fail again, anyway.

[drcuddles.livejournal.com]

I think you asked the wrong people to help.

{VOICE}

[peoplesprincess.livejournal.com]

I didn't ask them to help. ShinRa decided to hoist his daddy issues onto me and the rest of them followed suit.

[drcuddles.livejournal.com]

That's what I meant by the wrong people.

{VOICE}

[peoplesprincess.livejournal.com]

Well then who, in your infinite wisdom, would you consider the right people?

[drcuddles.livejournal.com]

Zuko.

[peoplesprincess.livejournal.com]

No.

{VOICE}

[peoplesprincess.livejournal.com]

Shut up.

{VOICE}

[peoplesprincess.livejournal.com]

I had told you not to destroy anything.
