ＡＣＴＩＯＮ, ＯＰＥＮ ＴＯ ＡＮＹＯＮＥ

Zuko hadn't been to work in a while. He took a temporary leave of absence following Weiss's kidnapping and subsequent rescue, determined to keep a watchful eye on her in case Torchwick was foolish enough to go after her again. But time had passed and Torchwick had yet to make a move, and Weiss had recovered enough that he felt comfortable with backing off a little. (Besides, he was sure she knew that he had essentially spent the past month tailing her.) And while the dragon problem in Fayren wasn't as much of a dilemma as it had been, it was still something that required attention.

Which was why the Deputy Guardian could be found in various parts of Fayren throughout the day, from the streets of the city itself to the more mountainous and forested areas where the dragons tended to dwell. It was important to ensure that the native populations remained unharmed and those human-like dragons that had seen to capturing virgins were eradicated.

ＶＯＩＣＥ, ＬＯＣＫＥＤ ＴＯ ＫＡＴＡＲＡ

You said we were supposed to be friends now, that you forgave me for what I did in Ba Sing Se and, you know, everything else? If that's true, then I would like to ask you for a favor.

"Not hunting them down and killing them is a good start," Zuko said, unable to keep the bitterness out of his voice. "They're intelligent. Just because they aren't human doesn't mean they don't have the ability to think like us. If you respect them, they respect you — don't invade their territory, respect their boundaries... They'll pretty much leave you alone if you do that. It's not hard."

"I'm doing a pretty good job of being respectful. I've been in the Maw a couple of times, but I've never run into one but.. if I do, none of that sounds too tricky."

She knows that Mewtwo is in there too now. The Maw's huge, though, it's no wonder she hasn't run into either Mewtwo or any dragons yet. It's a good thing she's talked to Zuko about this before though. Getting on the bad side of the dragons sounds like it's a good way to raise a red flag.

"I like exploring, what should I do if I accidentally invade their territory? Rather, what signs should I look for in trying to figure out if I'm about to? I don't have any plans to kill anything that doesn't attack me first, I'd rather keep out of their hair... if they have hair."
