Sun Child- Well Dang, Now That's Just Eating My Brain...

So, someone asked an excellent question that I need to figure out an answer to.

How *would* the Ember Island Players treat Zura in the Sun Child universe version of "The Boy in the Iceberg"?  Is it possible to interpret/misinterpret her character and situation in a humorous way?  Would she be written as an easy girl, as young and foolish, or possibly in a sympathetic light?  (I'm not sure Pu On Tim can handle that level of character complexity, but it would be interesting to see that mixed in.)

It's easy to make fun of teenaged boy shenanigans.  Harder to do so with a teenaged mom and have it come out funny.  I'm a bit stumped.

I have this weird image in my head of hergiving a monologue on honor and when her daughter makes a noise she turns into a mushy, cooing over-the-top mother.

Oh god, you're right. Now I have that image in my brain. She carries baby pictures and shows them to *every*one.

And who shares uncomfortable details of diaper rash, pottytraining and sore nipples.
