( The question is rhetorical, mostly. That's the impression he gets from Azula's words. )

It was what he wanted you to care about, after all. I'm sure you had desires yourself, but having someone close to you constantly trying to push for it...

( It almost reminds him of how defensive he'd been when being referred to as anything less than an angel. He's still on the fence... But it's tipping. )
