So, my family and I have been watching Avatar: The Last Airbender. We just finished the whole series a few weeks ago. I loved the book, and I have many ideas' and thoughts on some of (OK, most of) the characters. So, everyone sees Azula as just an evil supervillain, but actually inside, she's just a normal 14 year old that just wants to be loved and just to have friends. Since Azula was a child, her father told her that emotions showed weakness and the best way to control people was by fear. Through Azula's whole life, her father used her as a weapon and never loved her like a true father would. Azula's own mother thought she was a monster and loved Zuko more than she loved Azula. When Mai and Ty Lee betray Azula, if you watch her expression very carefully, you can see that she is so hurt, she just 

doesn't want to show it. And when Mai says her famous line, "I love Zuko more than I fear you." Azula realizes that her father was wrong. Fear isn't the strongest. Love is. And though Azula doesn't show or say it, she just doesn't want to be alone again. And when Ty Lee chi-blocks Azula, Azula looks so hurt, and inside, she's just so heartbroken, because she just lost the only two people in the world that she cares about (even though she doesn't show it) and even though Azula is so heartbroken and sad, she remembers that emotions are a weakness and turns her sadness into anger. On the last episode of the series, Azula is crowned the new Fire Lord when her father goes to take over the rest of the world and wipe out the eathbenders. Azula thinks that she can never trust anyone again, and she banishes all of her servants and guards, still secretly morning Ty Lee and Mai 

betraying her. Then she hallucinates her mother in her room as she prepares herself for her coronation. And Azula says, "You didn't love me. You thought I was a monster." and this is just such a heartbreaking statement, because Azula just wanted to be loved by her mother, and she just wanted her mother to see her as her daughter, not a monster. Then, from there, all her emotions that she had hidden and pushed down since she was a child came bubbling up, and she just lost touch. Azula might look like a evil supervillain with no emotions and no heart, but she's really just a normal 14 year old that had been broken and weaponized since she was a child. Azula just wants to be loved, she just wants to feel safe, she doesn't want to be alone, and she just really wants her friends to stay with her not because their scared of her,

because they love her for who she is, not what her father made her, and she just wants to be a normal person for once, not someone that made you shake and tremble at the sound of her name, she just wants to show her emotions and stop carrying the heavy expectation to make her father proud of her.
