When Azula's aura flickers, bruisey yellow and purple or poisonous black that the lightning-crackle blue swallows up again, Ty Lee knows that there are a very few things that can make her smile again, although she has endless variations on the theme.
She'll make a mistake- a clownish tumble, a pratfall, something expensive will almost shatter. Someone hearty and strong of will will need shouting at, and Azula's there to see it. When all else fails, something new about her is available to be praised, worshiped, exclaimed as the very ideal and instructions on lower-ranked mimicry begged for.
Ty Lee is very good at finding her princess's favorite things. And when she can tease some caress or grudging note of care from Azula in spite of herself- that's one of her favorite things as well.
