* EvilCannotComprehendGood: During her second conversation with the manifestation of Ty Lee, Azula acts like she did the other girl a favor by intimidating her into leaving the circus she performed at and joining her hunt for Aang, claiming she was giving her a chance to do something important. The fact that Ty Lee was perfectly happy at the circus and never felt the need to have an impact on the world doesn't occur to the former princess.
-->'''Azula:''' You were a nobody circus freak when I found you! Both you and Mai, complete losers.\\
'''Ty Lee:''' Happy losers, though. I loved that circus.

* FreudianExcuseIsNoExcuse: The dream spirit tears down Azula's FreudianExcuse to shreds by pointing out that Azula was given a chance for redemption and forgiveness here, but she ''chose'' to reject it despite Ozai being imprisoned and no longer a part of her life. It then spells out how every awful and cruel action she committed was her own choices and how her refusal to take responsibility for those actions is why she is still the monster she resents being.

* NeverMyFault: Azula ''wants'' to be loved by her family- but she also believes ''they'' are the ones who should apologize for hurting and betraying her. The spirit visions also call her out on this and point out how much she has hurt those that cared for her, which Azula defiantly refutes- even though it visibly gets under her skin. By the end of the story, she still has too much pride to admit to any wrongdoing, but [[PetTheDog her actions]] [[RayOfHopeEnding imply she understands it on a subconscious level.]]

--> '''Zirin''': This isn't a **war**! Attacking warehoues and sabotaging food supplies to undermine Fire Lord Zuko is pathetic! This isn't what we signed up for Azula, We're not pawns to be thrown away in this fight against your brother. We're putting ourselves in danger because of what you want, not what we all agreed to.

--> '''Zirin''': This isn't a **war**! ''war!'' Attacking warehoues warehouses and sabotaging food supplies to undermine Fire Lord Zuko is pathetic! You promised we'd be doing work to help the Fire Nation's downtrodden, not skulking around in the dark like criminals. This isn't ''isn't'' what we signed up for Azula, for, Azula. We're not pawns to be thrown away in this fight against your brother. We're putting ourselves in danger because of what you want, not what we all ''all'' agreed to.to. We want to -- we ''need'' to move on from undermining Fire Lord Zuko. We need to focus on ''other'' things.



--> '''Spirit''': My manifestations did not lie. This is a sacred place of peace and rest, should you wish for those things. This temple is a crossroads for those who have followed the wrong path. It offers a second chance- to choose for the better. You, little Fire Lord, were offered redemption and forgiveness, but you rejected what we had to give you. I take many forms, and it is your cruelty and desire for vengeance that shaped me into a reflection of your own inner self. A Monster.

* BadBoss: Azula is one to her Fire Warriors, completely ignoring how upset they are one of their own got captured. Unlike with Mai and Ty Lee, however, it bites her in the ass a lot faster since she no longer has any ''actual'' legal or royal authority to enforce her will, [[SurprisinglyRealisticOutcome and the Fire Warriors promptly abandon her the following night.]]

* CreepyGood: The Spirit in the temple is a mashup of a [[SpidersAreScary Spiders]] and CreepyCentipedes but genuinely wants to help those who it meets. When they realize that Azula hadn't found peace in her dream, they force her out of the temple for her own safety.
* DidYouJustFlipOffCthulhu: After the spirit turns into a grotesque abomination, Azula states she doesn't take kindly to meddling spirits and fires a lightning bolt at it.

safety. Granted it only takes this form to mirror Azula, however there appears a minature version of it making it ambigious to whether it always looked like that and just changed size.
