Azula as she had stated could be found at the back of the building, a wide open expanse in front of her in which to work. And the Princess had issued an open invitation if anyone wanted something else to do with their time than brood over trechary. It amused her more than anything else. People really should expect this sort of thing. And she supposed that most did. She didn't blame them, people were untrustworthy and trust as a concept was for fools. She'd never let herself trust again.

That way lay all that she had suffered at home. The trechary of friends and her brother. Even her father in many ways hadn't cared by the end.

The blue flame that emerged from the hands and feet of the princess as she moved at a run, jumping and kicking and somersaulting as she went,were decidedly telling of her state of mind. They shot out burning blue and hot enough to kill if anyone were foolish enough to get close. If they did it was their own fault. Azula was controlled. But barely. Full of pure rage, tempered only because Azula knew she had to play the role of team mate in this place. She couldn't work alone and she needed these people. Much as they might distrust her. She hadn't betrayed them to the demon. She had heard enough to know that she never planned to either unless it was to save her own life obviously. And they could lie and say otherwise but each one of them would do the same. Self preservation was a wonderful thing.

Virgil was curious. It was almost nightfall when he saw blue flames lick the outside of his window of the room he'd been sharing with Oliver Queen and Bart. Things were finally starting to calm down and the tension was slipping, so Virgil decided it was time to explore a little. Since getting back from Chicago he'd really stuck to his room and the kitchen, but he was feeling adventurous. It was still daylight, so the demons wouldn't be out yet(he hopped, he really, really hopped) He left a note and slipped down to the alley, making sure to stay out of the way of the blue flame.

It was intriguing. How did she get the fire to burn blue? it reminded him alot of his electricity, and maybe the two elements were tied together, so she got blue flame. Who knew. Either way the lights were distracting, and Virgil was entertained quite easily until the flame died away and he finally announced his presence with a grin and calm voice. "..Cool."

She had decided she hated that word, it was silly. 'Cool'. In no way were her flames cold, and the boy could find that out the hard way if he wished. She'd landed just as he'd spoken, upright, feet planted in a perfect landing. She really was simply that good. A prodigy they'd called her and she didn't dispute it, she never would.

"You're impressed then is that it?" she said quite simply to the boy. Azula didn't often talk to boys before, it hadn't gone well when she'd tried it with Chan and she still didn't understand why. They really could have dominated the earth. But he hadn't wanted that with her. His loss/

"It's firebending. I'm generally regarded as the best there is"

"Well yeah, it isn't every day I see someone who can firebend. I've never even heard of it before I saw you doing it." She was hot. Literally. Figuratively she wasn't so bad either. But he was gonna try not to stare and make it obvious..she didn't seem to thrilled to see him watching from his small nook against the wall and out of the way.

"What do you use it for?" That was the real question on Virgil's mind. She had power, but did she use it to help?..he always thought people should use their abilities to help others, but maybe that was just his hero complex kicking into high gear. She could totally be a hero type. But the more he looked at her, the more he didn't see her in a cape and mask. They were generally just unflattering on women anyway. Her outfit was already good. Very good. Boy brain working, check.

"I mean what else can you do with it?" Curiosity peaked.

Of course it wasn't every day. Idiot boy. Azula was the only one with such predigious skill at bending. And now that the annoying little water peasent was gone she was the only one from her world too. Yes hers. It should have been.

Ugh, trechary.

She walked across to the boy, she supposed sociable was the thing now. She had invited them she supposed. So she would talk nicely to the boy, answer his questions. Make friends, Friends eventually betrayed of course. But she would not be so foolish as to let anyone so close to her heart again.

"I use it to defend the complex. Its rather dangerous obviously and mostly here its a scare tactic. Keeps order. Keeps control. Its that kind of a skill you understand. And they say I was a prodigy. As for what else I can do, I create Lightning, and other things with the flames if you wish to see."
