"You're being too kind to me, Kozu, I don't know what to do with you." she smiled gently for him trying to keep the flush from her skin when he held her hand. It was nice to talk to Kozu, he didn't push her and with her gentle correction he no longer bowed and scraped and treated her like she was his better. Aside from her brother and his sister Azah, that was rare treatment directed towards her, even if he was the only one of those that she felt so strange around. She was usually serene and placid, it felt odd for her to be any less than that around him, she tried to push it out of her mind or at least to the back. She was not so willing to give it any significance. "I wish there was more I could do for you than be a simple pair of ears." but what more she could do for him, she had no idea.
Her smile grew larger when he stood on his palms, softly chuckling behind her hand. "I spoke with Azah about it not so long ago, perhaps you would not mind having the two of us in the audience, if your father does not make it into a special occasion that is." if the Fire Lord chose to make it something special they would all be attending, but she hoped for something less formal where she and Azah could blend into the crowd. "I am sure it will so well, you are very-"
She had to chuckle again when he started walking on his hands, "Is this what they teach you in the famed Sword and Fan? How to walk on your hands?" she tilted her head to the side as she watched him. "You have an excellent form I will grant you that." it took her a second or two to realize that she said he had an excellent form not that he had excellent form. She flushed crimson and only hoped he had not noticed her slip. Where was her head today and what was making her act so strangely? She could not figure that out. To cover what she said she spoke again quickly, "If that is what it takes to study there then I shall have to join and become a master before you as my handstands are far better." hopefully her teasing would cover what she said as well.
