+1 Retired Badass

[whitelotustile]

So, this is Stareyes, with her third character, Iroh from Avatar: the Last Airbender, a former crown prince and general, and current proprietor of the best darn tea shop in Ba Sing Sei. He's done the whole refugee thing before, and knows how to get by in a strange place -- and, hey, here he's not an enemy general who once laid siege to the place for over a year!

He likes tea, board games, Music Night and being everyone's favorite Wise Old Uncle/parental-substitute.

Ohhh tea!

[whitelotustile]

It is a very useful talent.

[demon_brat]

INdeed. Damian might even like that.

[whitelotustile]

Iroh does try to be likable, or at least is a personable person who spends a lot of time talking to people. (He's also used to teenagers, thanks to being both a father and an uncle.)

[demon_brat]

Sob. Damian's what you'd call a problem child, but.

[whitelotustile]

I'd say something about how there are no problem children, but...

[demon_brat]

... wise choice. ;)

Hello, Iroh! Iroh should be the kind old grandfather type to Julie. They'd get along very well.


also holy shit this is motivating me so hard to get my charlie mcgee app finished. 17 year old firestarter with severe trust issues bonding with iroh? it'd be the best thing that happened to her.

[whitelotustile]

He will totally be a kind old grandfather. To (nearly) everyone.

ETA: YEs, that sounds like someone who needs Iroh in her life. And having someone who is completely able to deal with fire probably helps.

It's an Iroh! Squee!

...Ahem. So this here former crown prince and general could probably use a lot of tea. Though he's dead, so slightly different perspective than Iroh's. But, y'know, stuff. ^^ I suspect they'll get alone. Also, Septimus would love talking firebending/crafting, I'm sure.

[whitelotustile]

Iroh believes mightily in the healing powers of tea. Also, clearly Septimus will want to learn Pai Sho (once Iroh gets a board): getting people who can play with him is an Iroh priority. (But he'd also be happy to talk fire, especially since Iroh clearly applies techniques from other peoples to his firebending, even if they originally relied on other elements.]
