Fics like bitter work (dig your heels into the dirt)

With her back against the wall, Azula decides that the best way out is to kill a dragon. It's a daunting, but simple enough task. One swift strike, right through the heart, and it will never move again. In which Azula shoots her brother full of lightning to make her escape, and Iroh has the desperation and humility to ask for help before it’s offered.
