HI! :D okay, i decided to do something about Avatar, since i love, love, love it, and because it's on every night at like ten thirty so i watch it. i like zutara, i mean come on she freaking hates him and he's just trying to be a good person, it's like wtf and so complicated. but it's awesome :D and i like tokka. it's cute. toph's a beast, sokka's a beast, zuko's a beast, katara... eh. haha. it's gonna be almost all dialogue, and just a few straight forward actions. like sigh, or kick, you'll get it. one-sided tokka, one-sided zutara. toph and zuko compare and just kick around a rock. it takes place let's say five days after they let zuko join the group. it's late at night, toph's sitting on a rock, zuko can't sleep, he's sitting across from her. they kick a rock, and just talk. sorry for ooc, i try my hardest, i really do. r&r :D i actually do not know how the title connects to the story... it's just cool alliteration and sounds pretty awesome. enjoy! it starts with zuko by the way, and when toph says "he could at least say thank you..." she's referring to the serpant's pass when she saved sokka and suki... toph goes to sleep at the end... so there isn't any confusion. i'm sorry if it's bad. =A=
Damp Dirt and a Frigid Fire
"Aren't you supposed to be asleep?"
"I was just going to ask the same."
"..."
Awkward silence.
"I'm glad they let you into the group."
"Yeah I guess. There's just one person who's always on my mind..."
"Oh really? Can I guess?"
"Sure."
"Sugar Queen?"
"Huh?"
"Knew it!"
"I don't even know who that is!"
Kick.
"Ow."
"Sorry."
"So who's 'Sugar Queen?'"
"Oh. That's my little secret."
"Whatever."
"What's been on your mind?"
Sigh.
"I don't get why she doesn't like me."
"Maybe 'cause you attacked her village..."
"What was that?"
"Nothing."
Toss.
"I mean sure I did some bad things, but I came here and I'm trying to teach Aang how to firebend."
"Mhmm. I know how you feel."
"Really?"
Shrug.
"I guess."
"How so?"
"I know he doesn't like me, because he likes that other girl, but he could at least say thank you..."
"Hm, I see."
"What does she look like?"
Chuckles.
"Hey come on. I'm blind."
"Oh right, sorry."
"It's all right."
"Well she beautiful first of all."
"Yeah okay, cheesy, pick up the pace."
Sigh.
"She has long brown hair..."
"What color is brown?"
"The color of dirt."
"Okay. Go on."
"Clear blue eyes."
"What color's blue?"
"The sky."
"Oh right."
"She has a gorgeous smile. And is an excellent bender."
"Uh huh."
"It's not you if that's what you're thinking."
Ouch.
"Good, I feel bad for that girl now."
Double Ouch.
"Well... what about you?"
"Oh..."
"Well?"
"I don't know what he looks like..."
"That's fine. Just... what do you think of him?"
"He's sweet. And very caring. Sarcastic too..."
Kick.
"Hey watch where you're kicking that!"
"Sorry, I was aiming for your mouth."
Sigh.
"Thank you."
"For what?"
"For talking with me. I needed someone to open up to."
"Oh yeah. You're welcome."
Yawn.
"I'm going to sleep now."
"Good night."
