[Someone appears to have given their Warden the slip, and as she appears on camera, she is thoughtfully considering her bare hand -- which quite suddenly bursts into blue flame. A wicked, triumphant smile passes her lips.]
Now that's more like it!
We'll stay a while, yes? I would so love to mingle.

No, we're not staying. It's not like we really have a choice anyway.

Not unless Sokka happens to wander into the line of fire, anyhow. That could be fun. Mild boredom shows on her face.]
Now what to do first...?

Date: 2012-05-29 06:02 pm (UTC)From:Well, you could help me try to save some of these people. Or, you could burn some things down and show off and probably get in a lot of trouble with me later.
Your choice.

[Private]
Date: 2012-05-29 07:08 pm (UTC)From:But they're the friends and family of others, and the only hope that this city is going to return back to normal is if they survive to rebuild it.

Date: 2012-05-29 07:18 pm (UTC)From:Here's the thing. You want to use your powers, I'm fine with that. But what are you going to use them for here? Really. Just make lightshows? Every single criminal out there would be happy to kill you or anyone that gets in their way.
You like challenges, don't you?

Date: 2012-05-29 07:31 pm (UTC)From:You work with me, we try to take some of these guys out. The civilians will be grateful, the criminals really pissed off, and it'll be way dangerous. Maybe even a little fun.
The biggest challenge, other than staying alive? I want you to use your bending to wound, not to kill. Control over power. Can you do that?

Buffy tucks Mr. Pointy back in her messenger bag and approaches her inmate.]

[SPAMMAGE]
Date: 2012-05-29 08:54 pm (UTC)From:[As far as she's aware, Buffy doesn't have any bending abilities. Without her fire, they have been in on even footing, their spars very fast-paced, with Azula generally relying more on avoiding blows than landing any, herself -- she's used to fire and bolt punctuating each gesture. She'd like to see how it will turn out, now that she is no longer encumbered by a sunless barge.]
[SPAMMAGE]
Date: 2012-05-29 09:00 pm (UTC)From:Her stance is mostly relaxed, but ready.]
We have somewhere to be. Let's make this quick.
[Now she's falling into a more obvious defensive position, legs somewhat apart, knees bent, hands raising to form into fists.]
[SPAMMAGE]
Date: 2012-05-29 09:05 pm (UTC)From:[She opens with a sudden burst of flame, which is more a tactic for distraction than anything else. She repels off one of the walls in the alley and catches the railing of the fire escape looming above. In a smooth motion, her feet are on the walkway, and she's making her way up toward the roof. They'll need more room to move around after all.]
Don't keep me waiting, Warden.
[SPAMMAGE]
Date: 2012-05-29 09:09 pm (UTC)From:Buffy ducks the fire, instinctively grabbing her hair. She instantly starts to follow Azula. She jumps straight up and impossibly high to grab onto the fire escape and pulls herself up with ease.] If you burn my hair, we're going to have to have a serious talk. There will be lecturing and everything.
[Her tone is joking, but as she starts to move up the stairs, she quickly ties her hair back.]
[SPAMMAGE]
Date: 2012-05-29 09:13 pm (UTC)From:[She doesn't take the stairs so much as hop from one landing to the next with surprising grace. When she finally alights to the roof she finds it blessfully abandoned, with some pipelines and other protrusions to make the fight a little more interesting. She perches atop a door leading down into the building, waiting]
[SPAMMAGE]
Date: 2012-05-29 09:22 pm (UTC)From:She starts to take the steps two at a time, and when she reaches the top, she scans the surroundings and unsurprisingly, doesn't see Azula.
Buffy places her messenger bag at the top of the fire escape and cautiously treads in, reaching out with her senses, focusing.
She then intentionally faces her back to where Azula is and starts to move the other way.]
[SPAMMAGE]
Date: 2012-05-30 01:27 am (UTC)From:As usual, as far as she is concerned. She'll never acknowledge that Buffy probably wordlessly offers an indulgence or two to spare her ego.
She tires of this soon enough, and holds up a palm; it bursts silently to life with blue light. Just as she's letting it fly--]
Too slow.
[SPAMMAGE]
Date: 2012-05-30 01:41 am (UTC)From:Losing, especially here, is not an option. No matter how powerful and skilled Azula is, she can't afford to lose. It would kind of ruin everything. Plus, she isn't so sure the girl wouldn't kill her if she had the chance.]
