The Boiling Rock had changed a lot in the decade since the war.
It was a whole lot emptier, for one thing. Once Zuko took the throne, one of the first things on the agenda was reconciliation. Rehabilitation meant repatriation. Prisoners of war were all returned almost immediately; soldiers who had committed real crimes of note were sent on trials in their own country; and those whose guilt was undeniable met swifter ends than prison. Dragging the process on wasn't the desire of anyone. What had happened happened, and the desire for everyone was to move on in whatever ways they could.
That's not to say the prison was totally empty. Something had to be done with the rest of the Fire Nation's elite, after all. Those who had not merely been ordered to fight the war; but had written the orders. The new Fire Lord was lenient with those who came to apologize, and plead their loyalty to the new order. For those who weren't, the irony was blunt. The very same prisons they used to house their victims would not be used to hide them. It was considered fair by the other nations. Thus, instead of hardened benders, Boiling Rock quickly became a place for stubborn old commanders, living out their lines playing Pai Sho in chains.
Except for one, that is.
Deep, deep below the surface of the waves, at the subterranean catacombs of the prison, lied the prison's most secluded and guarded room. On paper, it was a wine cellar. In practice, it housed the most heavily guarded prisoner of all. Their name was on no records, not even those of the prison's. Guards were not informed of their identity, and questions were not permitted. The guards didn't ask; but a scarce few still knew. They knew the presence when opening the door, and feeling the air grow sharp. They knew the glinting eyes, stalking them like a lioness upon first sight. They knew why her only visitor, monthly like clockwork, were members of the Royal Family.
They knew that it was Princess Azula there, chained and locked away at the prison's bottom. In the ten years since the war's end, she was kept there, changed by time into a woman yet timeless in her cell, like a frozen figurine. The rumors were that, in case of an escape, the stairway would be flooded, to keep her below. No escape happened. No one was sure why. Battle cries and searing flames never erupted from the cell. Just whispers...endless, endless whispers, as little understood as the whistling wind above them, but whistling on, nonetheless.
Maybe that's why they sent for her.

Hello everyone! In case it wasn't obvious from this prompt...I love Azula from Avatar! Maybe I'm just biased since she miiiiiight have been my lesbian awakening, but, really, I've always found her such a fascinating character. Horribly tragic in her upbringing, twisted and ruined by war and robbed of normalcy, to the point of being unable to function properly. It was always my hope that, somehow, in someway, she'd be able to recover after the fact, and have some kind of normal life.
Well, let's give her one!
I want to create a romance RP here, building around the prompt of someone sent in to try and help Azula, in a way. Maybe it's Ty Lee, returning despite her reservations and past betrayal, to try and help a former friend. Perhaps it's Katara, sent in as a master healer to get Azula healthy again. It could also be an original character! I mainly just want to play with that setup.
In what condition Azula is in is up to discussion as well! Sanity is a delicate thread, and what state hers is in can vary a lot, from just needing a taste of normalcy and some love, to needing a lot more work.
Of course, this is Dirty Pen Pals. After some buildup I do like the idea of getting steamy~. I'm a very open minded person! when it comes to smut. My only real limits are rape; vomit; gore; and scat. I'm almost always open to having conversations about things, even if I'm not into them, I'll hear you out! Some of my specific kinks include anal, rimming, gapes, humping, sloppy makeouts, exhibitionism, sneaky sex, and more! I'd be happy to discuss more.
As a disclaimer, I am a fairly literate RPer. I expect a bit of meat on the bones of my replies, usually at least a few paragraphs. I also only RP on reddit.
Please don't reply with just one word. Let me know what you're looking for and what you want to see! The more details I hear from you, the more I will see we can mesh well and create an interesting story together 😄 I look forward to seeing some replies soon!
