I just realized something that I'm not even sure if the authors were looking at doing something this in-depth with Azula's time in the asylum and yeah we're talking about a completely different universe so this is all nit-picky.
But I wonder if the asylum even had wings for different age groups; when I was hospitalized (inpatient for a week and then outpatient the summer before my senior year) I was under 18 so not only at times was I with all (or mostly) girls, but I was surrounded by people close to my age. EDIT: during outpatient it was a larger mixture of teens ages and boys and girls so there were some differences there from inpatient
Was the asylum just a mishmash of 'crazy people?' I mean Yang inferred himself the asylum wasn't exactly great.
So let alone the fact that we don't have any evidence of medicine or how the place runs, as someone who's been on the receiving end of being in a hospital (voluntarily I might add) the fact that they wanted to play up her being in an asylum but not commit to the fact that Zuko hasn't checked on her, hasn't looked into the therapy/curriculum, made sure she's with peers her age just screams shoddy writing not to mention using this to maintain her villain status? Lmao F
This is no dig at characters this is looking at sub-par planning and writing.
The one thing she says that I'm willing to look past is her remark about the food, bc 1. It's probably going to be hospital grade food and 2. Azula is royalty and is used to getting gourmet stuff
