Issarok has finished the morning classes and is now free to roam around the palace.
Unfortunately, it's nearly Midwinter, so the palace is dark, and there are Southerners and Firebenders everywhere, all of whom he'd really rather not run into in the dark.
He's sitting in the throne room instead, reading over a scroll of military theory and frowning whenever he finds something he disagrees with. Which appears to be fairly often.

(Meila is convinced that Melaka could kick the combined asses of Avatar Aang, Toph Bei Fong and Katara of the Southern Water Tribe. With her hands tied behind her back.)
She scowls at his attitude, but can't think of a decent comeback.
"My brother says you took him and my Mom and sister to the facilities instead of greeting the Fire Lord when he arrived."

"A proper prince has many duties, Princess. Of course I did."
Stupid brat.
no subject
And not someone who sits in the presence of a Fire Nation Princess. Meila scowls at him openly when he does that.
"Maybe you don't have servants up here. Or maybe, my Mom wanted to talk to you on her own."
EYING.
Guess who's brother and sister won't tell her want they talked about on the boat?
no subject
He has a feeling he was Talked To on the boat, and that he doesn't understand how it happened or why at all.
no subject
"What did you talk about?"
no subject
"Many things, Princess. Mostly how good it is to have them here in the North."
Or something like that, anyway.
no subject
"That was diplomacy, right? Means it's a lie."
no subject
"You should study diplomacy a little more, maybe."
no subject
"I'm right, though."
So there.

It's strange, feeling anger without fire.
"I don't thiink you really want us here."

Says the eleven year old.
no subject
'cause that would be rude.

"No," she said. "I said it outright."
Issarok's not that bright, is he?
no subject
It would be much easier to challenge her to a duel if she was a little older. And not a girl. And not, technically, here on an invitation extended by his family.
And not related to his future wife. And not likely to get him in trouble with the terrifying Luwei.
"That ... wasn't polite of you," he decides on, eventually. "Your manners are not very good, child."
no subject
So nyuh.
"That's not polite, either."

(When she's Fire Lord, lying will be outlawed.)
no subject
There.
no subject
"You would not," Meila says - practically seethes.
