Summary
Helena is here at hand,
And the youth, mistook by me,
Pleading for a lover's fee.
Shall we their fond pageant see?
Lord, what fools these mortals be! -

Summary
Toph was bored. Stuck at the palace waiting for that life-changing field trip after having saved the world, Toph Beifong decides to talk to Azula, trapped in a prison that she deserves. It'll be fun, she thinks, seeing of Azula can still lie to her. See if she could have just a little fun taunting her. What's the worst that could happen?
Azula was bored. Trapped in a prison being preached at by her useless brother, the new Fire Lord, she has nothing better to do than to start a game of sorts when Toph arrives, one aimed at earning her freedom at any cost, even if it means digging into the similarities that lay between them. Who's going to care, anyway?
When you're trapped and stuck, where are you going to go?

Summary
As she sits out there in the cold, her skin tingling with the leftover adrenaline and eyes stinging from the tears that won’t come out, Jackie thinks vaguely of Julius Caesar. While the rest of the class groaned at the assigned reading, Jackie had always secretly enjoyed the play, the idea of betrayal, the idea of power. Everyone turning on each other just for a chance at something bigger than them, the way a crowd is so easily swayed by the best speaker. Jackie thought it fascinating, the balance between fate and free will, the fickleness of public favor. But now, sitting on a log outside the cabin, exiled by the one person who means anything to her, Jackie thinks only of the tragedy. The tragedy isn’t their circumstances, it’s them. Jackie would always be this person, Shauna would always grow to hate her, and--plane crash or no plane crash--Jackie would always end up here. The fault, dear Brutus, is not in our stars, but in ourselves.
Or: Jackie stands the fuck up and takes some initiative. For Javi, if no one else.

“What the fuck was that about?”
“There was an argument-” Tai started, but stopped when Nat's eyes cut to her.
“An argument? Are you all fucking stupid?” Nat scowled at the girls around her, pointing at Tai. “She said it, cold enough that dying feels like falling asleep. It was snowing, for fuck sake.”
“She chose to leave,” Shauna said.

Or Nat gets to Jackie before she dies.
