amyraine in her interview (http://lalunatique.livejournal.com/15175.html) with me had this to say about Ursa and Ozai:
"I find [Ursa] to have more agency and purpose than Ozai himself, who is supposed to be the big bad. Think about it: who got him the throne? Ursa. Who got him Ba Sing Se? Azula. Who came up with the plan to annihilate the EK? Azula. Other than his one horrific act of abuse toward Zuko, the man did dick squat. I find Ozai to be the most boring villian in the history of boring villains, ever."
