Mailee is the femslash pairing of Mai and Ty Lee from Avatar: The Last Airbender.
Canon
Mai and Ty Lee are shown to be friends with Azula from a young age. Introduced in season 2 of the show, they are recruited by Azula to help her track down her fugitive brother and uncle. In season 3, when Zuko joins the gaang and rescues Suki and Hakoda from the Boiling Rock Prison, Mai and then Ty Lee betray Azula to help Zuko and his group escape the prison.
Fandom
While not a major pairing of the fandom, Mailee does get a steady amount of fanart and focus among ATLA femslash blogs and fans.
In fanfic, Mai/Ty Lee is often included as a background ship in works focused on more popular pairings such as Zutara, Zukka, and Kataang.
Fanart often depicts a fluffy, lighthearted depiction of the ship, or focuses on the contrast between Mai's "gloomy" goth aesthetic and Ty Lee's cheerful pink aesthetic.
