[Hands Zuko a glass of water]

Here, let's change those cloths. Just damp rags now.

[capthlock_rage]

[sips it slowly]

[iseeyouflaming]

[nice, cold cloth on the back of the neck and wiping at Zuko's forehead and temples with a dry rag]

How you feeling? Any better?

[capthlock_rage]

... Not really.

[iseeyouflaming]

Any worse?

[capthlock_rage]

I keep... having these dreams.

[can I lean on you some more? :(]

[iseeyouflaming]

[always, fluffersnugglekins }:< ]

Dreams, huh?

[capthlock_rage]

Disjointed ones. Abstract, it doesn't make sense, except when it does...

[iseeyouflaming]

[refills your glass. DRINK.]

Wanna talk about 'em?

[capthlock_rage]

[just stares down at his glass]

There was one... where... I was my father.

[iseeyouflaming]

Drink up. What do you mean, you were your father - you looked like him, that sort of thing?

[capthlock_rage]

No, I mean -- I was my father. It was... I don't usually... dream about being someone else. Especially him.

[iseeyouflaming]

Must've been a real nightmare.

[capthlock_rage]

[slumps, burying his face in one hand]

[iseeyouflaming]

[moves glass over to the table]

Hey, come here. Come on.

[would you like your Jet pillow back]

[capthlock_rage]

[yes please ;;]

Just like before.

[iseeyouflaming]

[new cold cloth on the forehead, then]

Okay.

[capthlock_rage]

No, I mean -- this...

[iseeyouflaming]

I ain't going anywhere.

[capthlock_rage]

[grabs Jet's hand and presses it against his forehead]

This. Happened before.

[iseeyouflaming]

Shit, Zuko, you're practically burning through this thing...

[Presses another cold cloth down]

[capthlock_rage]

You're not listening...

[iseeyouflaming]

Have some more water first, you're sweating too much. Here.

[reaches over for the glass]

[capthlock_rage]

[:(]

[iseeyouflaming]
