Yeah, but then you'd be drenched in water...

[ zuko. honestly. ]

Oh, so that's what your plan is.

[ Weiss puts her hands on her hips. ] If you want to get me wet, that's your responsibility. No asking for help from Katara.

[ his gold eyes go wide, eyebrow shooting up. oh. ]

That could be arranged.

How about... [ Weiss intertwined her fingers with his with both hands, looking up at him. ] I ask Armin to reschedule all of my appointments tomorrow?

[ She's sure after being a pain in the ass and working relentlessly right up until this event, it won't be a big deal if she takes a break. Especially if it's with Zuko. ]

[ normally he would protest, but he's nearing the end of his — of azula's — term and there hasn't been much to do. ]

I think I can work you in to my schedule.

It's too bad I still have to be attentive to other matters tonight. [ And she doesn't think pulling Zuko into a closet for a quickie is very appropriate for either of them. ]

[ it wouldn't be, and knowing his luck, someone would walk in and catch them. ]

This is what you get for putting yourself at the top.

It's a good thing I like it up here.

[ It was true- she did. She put herself here purposefully. Though she had learned a lot back when she was working as a waitress, then a manager of that pizza place, the reality was that this is what she loved. Handling her company and doing things the right way, a way that can protect people and try to make the world a better place. There was a sense of satisfaction in that and in living up to her name, something she didn't feel her father was doing. Even if this wasn't home and there were a lot more problems ahead for when she did get back, she felt this was a good start. At the very least, it was giving her a lot of confidence that she would be able to handle a tougher challenge. ]

[ that's where they differ — she put herself at the top, but blood (outcomes of war pending) deems that zuko will be at the top whether he puts himself there or not. birth put him there. it's his right by way of having been born with a silver spoon in his mouth. she wants this, she enjoys it. her boyfriend... not so much. even after being deputy guardian for so long and excelling at it, he's still not sure whether he actually wants to rule a nation that'll be recovering from a hundred years of war. ]

No need to worry about the pressures of the job getting to you. But you could still use a break.

[ despite her own ambitious nature, she likes that about Zuko. He is willing to do what's necessary without losing sight of what he wants. She knows that he wasn't always that way, even if she hasn't seen that side of him. He's told her as much. As long as Zuko supports her, she would support him whether he had to be a deputy guardian or wanted to go back to the tea shop. ]

I could say the same for you.

[ no, he wasn't always like that, but when he was reaching too high, he was reaching for something other people wanted for him and not necessarily what he wanted for himself. he's done living that kind of life. ]

Azula's term's almost up and we'll both be out of office soon. She's not running again. There'll be plenty of time for a break when that's all over with.

Are you going to go back to the tea shop after that?

[ She knows how much he loved it there. It actually hurt a little to see him give it up for Azula. ]

I might. I haven't decided, but I can figure that out later.

[ and he had sufficient enough funds saved up to keep himself afloat. if being literally dirt poor for a while had taught him anything, it was how to stretch a few gold coins. ]

Do you...

[ No. Not a good time to ask that right now. Weiss tilts her head slightly. ] We should talk about this later. Now it's time to enjoy a party.

[ his brow rises with interest, but he doesn't ask. whatever she was about to say can be said later. ]

I'll hold you to that.

[ Weiss gives his hands an affectionate squeeze, accompanied with a little smile. ]

It's something I want, I'd never forget to ask about it. You don't have to worry about holding me to it.
