Zuko and Jee, respect is earned, not given

Zuko ran away.

Jee woke one morning to find the prince gone with their ostrich-horse and half the supplies. He cursed roundly, made himself some of the strongest tea he'd ever drank, and set about rigging a carry for the supplies.

Zuko could either catch up with him or not. He was going to Ba Sing Se. After what he'd done during the Siege of the North, the Fire Nation would hang him high.

They wouldn't forgive the prince either, but he wasn't sure Zuko quite realized that yet.

A few days later, Zuko found him again. He looked exhausted and said nothing about where he'd been.

Jee cuffed the boy, and Zuko stared with wide eyes.

"Did you learn anything or was it a waste of time?"

"Yes," the prince muttered.

Jee cuffed him again on general principles.
