I don't see this pairing often. You did a good job with them though.

Flower language is one of my not-so-secret literary kinks.

This was fantastic, with just enough melancholy for spice. The way you described her suitors and their flowers was perfect.
I've never thought of Piandao/Ursa, but now I can't stop thinking about it or how Zuko and Azula would have turned out with him as a father rather than Ozai.

oh. oh. bittersweet. I love the witch back story. Beautiful

This is a wonderful concept and you wrote it beautifully. I really enjoyed this.
And hey, Ursa's mom is the cat lady! Ah!

stingrae

beautifully written. a definite fave.

Really beautifully written and so sad. Poor Ursa!

Oh, wow, this is awesome! I love the language of flowers and Victorian tussie-mussies! Never thought I'd see 'em in an Avatar fic... Very nice! You did a great job with all the symbolism!(Heh, did you know cabbage symbolizes profit? Wonder what the Cabbage Merchant would think of that...)

Yes, I spotted the cameo and I loved it. :D I also loved Piandao's appearance. This story was beautiful overall, and fits oddly with an idea I had.)

Beautiful story. One of the best Iroh/Ursa stories I've read. I loved how you described why she loved Iroh."Ursa loved Iroh because he was worthy of love, and he was worthy of it because he was not a man who could in good conscience court the woman his brother desired.
It fits so perfectly with how I see Iroh and how I imagine Ursa could be.

Oh... nice. I love Ursa being subtle yet opinionated, and the bit about Iroh and her was... really nice.

Nice characterization of this mystery lady; I dearly hope that we do get to see Ursa in Iroh's (and Zuko's, of course) company at some point in this season!

This was really nice. I'd never really thought about Ursa because I hardly ever seen her in the show, but now she's my favorite! :D

I also notice Piandao ... nice idea

You are truely amazing with this character and you hit so many possible truths and ways of thinking ... im sorry but im going to be a little disappointed when Ursa reappears in the series (if the second half of the season ever airs) because you have built her up so high that the creators cant hope to match your wonderful interpretation
Something i have noticed is that often the best fanfiction is about background characters that have huge plot importance but have little known about them ... like the Fourth Hokage in Naruto fiction ... ill keep my eye open for your future works

So, so sweet. Thank you.
