Rating: G
Fandom: Avatar: The Last Airbender
Warnings: None
Artist's Notes: It struck me that back when they were all one big "happy" family, Iroh would have tried to get Azula to play Pai Sho. But when Azula is forced to play a game she doesn't like she tends to change the rules :) Texture by hibbary.
Summary: Iroh and Azula playing Pai Sho. Azula has set one of Iroh's pieces on fire.

That's really cute, I love the colors and the expressions :D

[alias_sqbr]

Thankyou!

[ocicatsy.livejournal.com]

hahaha, this is beautifully in character. Love Iroh's eyebrows.

[alias_sqbr]

Thanks ^_^

[wellington.livejournal.com]

Haha, she looks so casual about the whole thing. Beautiful warm colors. Nice pic!

[alias_sqbr]

Thanks!

She's just playing Pai Sho creatively, it's no big deal :)

[ratcreature]

Heh. Yes, I can this happening exactly like this.

[alias_sqbr]

Me too :) Thanks!

[curtana.livejournal.com]

Hahahah, this is great! :D I love both of their expressions (Azula so casual/bored, Iroh all o_O) The scene is totally believable, too - I can't see Azula having the patience to put up with a game, especially if she was losing (and I'm sure Iroh wouldn't be the type to let her win just because she's young ;)

Thank you so much, dear artist, I love it!

[alias_sqbr]

Yay, I'm really glad you liked it!

And yes, that's exactly what I was thinking.

[nextian.livejournal.com]

Hahah, "mystery" artist, THIS IS DARLING. Azula has the right attitude, I think.

[alias_sqbr]

SHHHHH.

Thanks :)

[isiscolo.livejournal.com]

Bwahaha! So cute. I love Iroh's expression - actually I love BOTH their expressions.

[alias_sqbr]

Thankyou! Avatar has the best expressions, they're lots of fun to try and capture.

[beccastareyes]

Hilarious. And I love the colors, as well as the expressions.

[alias_sqbr]

Thankyou!

[sholio]

Oh, this is adorable! I can totally see this happening. Iroh's expression is awesome.

[alias_sqbr]

Thankyou! I can see it happening too :)

[zephre.livejournal.com]

that is exactly what would happen, too! excellent capture, and their expressions are fantastic!

[alias_sqbr]

Thanks!

[mashimero.livejournal.com]

Aww that's an adorable scene!

[alias_sqbr]

Thankyou ^_^

[derawr.livejournal.com]

Haha! I can totally see Azula doing that. This is a great pic.

[alias_sqbr]

Thanks :)

[genarti]

Ha! This is exactly how it would go, and I love both their faces. This is so expressive!

[alias_sqbr]

Thankyou! (Yay Azula setting things on fire :))

[ieke85.livejournal.com]

Iroh's eyebrows!!! Fantastic.

[alias_sqbr]

Thanks :)

[lady-ganesh.livejournal.com]

That is totally Azula!

[alias_sqbr]

Thankyou!

[dualbunny.livejournal.com]

Hee! Cute and clever, and their faces are wonderful. :D Plus I love the palette. *g*

[alias_sqbr]

Thanks! I must admit the Overlay function in Photoshop helps with that :D

[wensleydale.livejournal.com]

Ahahah, great way to capture the characters!

[alias_sqbr]

Thanks :)

[scribbleomania.livejournal.com]

Aww, warm and fuzzy family moment! This is hilarious and entirely in-character. I love how smug Azula is, like she just figured out the right way to play Pai Sho.

[alias_sqbr]

Thankyou! And yeah, I can imagine her going "You know, I used to hate this game, but it's actually rather fun."

[runpunkrun]

Hee, Iroh's expression! And the little puff of smoke! Love the fiery color palette.

[alias_sqbr]

Thanks! I love you icon :)

[red-eft.livejournal.com]

Ahahaaa, Azuuuuula. <3333 Poor Iroh- he's just trying to bond with her! This is really great.

[alias_sqbr]

Thanks! And hey, she tried to share his hobbies!

[omens.livejournal.com]

This is SO very them! :D :D I love her snotty little face and all of the lovely orange!

[alias_sqbr]

Thanks! Orange isn't usually my favourite colour, but it seemed right for this picture.

[unavee.livejournal.com]

Ahaha, Azula would so do that. Iroh's expression is great.

[alias_sqbr]

Thanks!

[reflectedeve.livejournal.com]

Hee, this is great! Marvelously in-character. I love their expressions so much; Azula's body language in general is just beautifully casual, and Iroh looks so dubious! The colors are lovely too, and the little plume of smoke! A fantastic little piece, which fits into the fandom nicely.

[alias_sqbr]

Wow, thanks! I love Azula's body language in the show, she has this whole languid smugness, as if the people she's in conflict with don't merit anything approaching her full attention :)

[glockgal.livejournal.com]

AHAHAAH I love how Azula isn't even TRYING to be sneaky about her need to win. I can't even call it cheating, because she's not - she's just resetting the rules to suit her!! OH AZULA. I like to enter this scene into my personal ATLA canon as the key moment when Iroh realized there was something not right about lil Azula.

Adorable and perfect expressions on the both of them!

[alias_sqbr]

Thankyou! And yes, exactly, she's not cheating, she's making the game better.

[ani-bester.livejournal.com]

Oh nice, I like this a lot. I love the color choice here too!

[alias_sqbr]

Thanks!
