Blank Canvas
When Andromache turned fifteen, she sat in a tent and allowed her tribe's tattoo artist to tap at her shoulder with a needle made from the rib of a falcon. She held herself still even though she wanted to flinch from the pain, wanted to run free of this confined tent, wanted to be doing anything but not moving. She doesn't remember the artist's name, but she can hear his voice, telling her again not to move, his canvas was small enough as it was. An uncle? A cousin? She can't remember. She remembers peeling the poultice away from her skin on the eighth day, seeing the spotted horse, bent in a defiant buck, its mane and tail spiked with movement, that she'd sketched with her hands and he'd turned into first a dye-soaked felt cutout, and then put on her shoulder. She knew she'd bear it for the rest of her life, and her eyes wet in wonder and pride.
It was the first of her tattoos, but not the last. Two other fire-horses joined the first, all bucking away from the same point across her back and sides. The shaman had put two lines of dots down her spine, rubbing sacred herbs into her skin and topping them with a poultice, one moon when her cramps were especially bad. A serpent coiled around her calf, clutched in the claws of an eagle. A rabbit with horns across her heart, applied by a lover, one she almost tore off when he proved unfaithful.
When she died for the first time, her tattoos began to fade, and any attempt to darken or reapply them only made them fade faster. Within a year, she gave up trying. Over the next century, as the people she'd known pre-death died and people who worshipped her as a demigod took their places, fewer and fewer took up the bone-needle, and fewer submitted to its bite. No matter how many times she told her people that inked skin was acceptable to her, and proper, and good, her disciples wanted to imitate her scarless skin more than they wanted to listen to her words. One reason, of many, she left them behind.

it would be interesting to see a grown azula looking like Ursa and a grown Zuko looking like Ozai. It would not be easy for both of them. Any headcanons on that? : )
It is canon that Azula looks like Ursa and Zuko strongly resembles Ozai, and as they grow it gets even more so.
I have two HCs related to this.
1. My post-series Azula HC is that post-Agni kai, the raging / catatonic phase of her breakdown actually doesn’t last that long. And as her sanity comes back, she becomes more cooperative. Not repentant, mind you, just kind of pragmatic about the whole situation - knowing that the first priority is to get herself out of the mental ward. 
So one day when Zuko visits her, she happens to have her hair resembling the Ursa-style (total coincidence), and she speaks on a normal voice - softer than her usual sarcastic tone. Zuko is totally shaken by how much she looks and sounds like Ursa. And it leads to a shift in their relationship, because it reminds Zuko of how Ursa always wanted them to get along and be real siblings, and he starts to feel guilty about how badly he wants to find his mother in the name of rebuilding his family and how little he has done about the family locked away in the mental hospital. And after this, Zuko tries more actively to help Azula’s recovery and give her chances to prove herself. 
Azula of course wouldn’t be Azula if she didn’t piece this together - so she uses sometimes, very sparingly the Ursa-voice, when she wants something badly enough. She realizes that it’s a sure way to get through to Zuko. But the act also affects her, because with kind of “impersonating” her mother, more of Ursa’s values come back to the surface, and she finds it hard to use this trick against Zuko. So it eventually simply becomes the Dum-Dum voice; something she deploys when she really thinks Zuko is doing something stupid and self-harming to warn and protect him. 
2. For Zuko, it’s mostly about when he first becomes Fire Lord and catches his own reflection in the mirror with the headpiece, and sometimes he just freezes, because he thinks it’s Ozai. And he has to stop and look and there is the scar, and it feels like relief that he is just himself. This is the point when he really starts to appreciate the scar, so when Katara offers once to try to heal it with spirit water, he refuses. 
And later, much much later, when Azula’s been redeemed, and they kind of become pals with Katara, Katara tells this story, like an old anecdote of Zuko changing his mind last minute about healing his scar (It’s a funny anecdote somehow involving Zuko jumping out of the sacred fish pond of the Northern Water Tribe, almost causing a diplomatic incident). Azula laughs at awkward Zuko, but deep down she gets it immediately. Because she’s been feeling the same way about it. She catches Zuko’s scarless side, and gets momentary flashbacks to Ozai, but then his brother turns slowly and the scar is there and it’s a relief every time.
