    Hi all,

    Sorry for the double-post. I originally put this in "Ask A Question" but it might be more appropriate to put it here.

    I wonder what past instance (or instances) Azula was referring to when Zuko said "You lied to me!" and she replied "Like I've never done that before." Do you think there's something that could be significant to the plot there, or did the writers stick Azula's comment in just to show what a cold nasty wench she is?


    Knowing the avatar writers? Could be either or both. If I had a better idea of how big a role Zuko and Iroh will be playing in this season, I could form a clearer opinion. At this early point in the season? It seems to me like it was mostly a demonstration of the bitter relationship between the two. ( 0.0; It's like sibling rivalry to the billionth power!)

    it might be the fire nation cause when iroh puts his hand on zuko's arm and zuko then has a flashback to his father putting his hand on his shoulder they appear to be in the same place so it could be the fire nation. oh and also that zuko thinks of iroh as his father


    For a while I thought that was Iroh putting his hand on Zuko in the flashback, after everything Iroh's said about Ozai I jsut can't see him even showing simple love like putting his hand on his son's shoulder. Who knows, I'm over it


    Hey PrincessZula,
    Hug

    I can't imagine that Iroh and Zuko would be in the FN, partially because it is farther away from the North Pole than the EK (plus Azula said something about coming "all this way") and also because I think that Zuko and Iroh would have been arrested. However, the buildings seem like they are more FN colors (red/white/pink) and style than EK. So hmmm....

    I am going to take a wild guess and say that they are technically in the EK, but perhaps near one of the old Air Temples. Why? Because there were what appeared to be some very steep mountains in the background. I could see where the parts of the Earth Kingdom that were close to the Temples might have a slightly different style of dress and architecture, since they would have been influenced by the Air Nomad culture.


    gracias Mellomuse

    Yes, sibling rivalry to the billionth zillionth power!!!
    Yeah, I, too, think that Zuzu and Iroh will play a big important role in this season now that he doesn't want to capture Aang anymore.

    He's going to want to but it will be no use I can see it now

    *zuko walks by Aang*
    Aang: aren't you going to try to catch me
    Zuko: What good would that go
    Aang: I never quite figured that out

    I would have started a new thread, but it would probably get locked in two seconds.
    I want to know: how many people thought even for just an instant that Zuko was about to try kill himself or something when he first pulled out that knife? That was the thought that first occurred to me. Yes, it's way out of Nickelodeon's league and it would have been terrible and senseless, but just for that first nanosecond... did that occur to anyone else?
