It's rare for me to strike inspiration so recently, and when I do I don't usually know how to use it to its full capacity.
Recently, I have been really interested (coughobsessedcough) with Katoph (Katara x Toph), Toph x Longshot (I think it's cute), Toko (Toph x Zuko, again, cute) and still Taang. These are drabbles dedicated to pairings that involves Toph (since she rocks my socks, literally).
I'm starting with Taang, my favorite, so…if you like any of the above pairings and you like my writing (yeah right), wait.
Disclaimer: Nada.

Aang grunted as he attempted to pull Toph up from her knees, "Come on, Toph. We need to get to Appa, and fly back to the inn—whoa!" he fell as Toph slumped forward. He quickly let go and fell onto his stomach.
Toph hiccupped, drunk on sake and very tipsy, "Oh poo you," she slurred, hiccupping once more.
Aang scowled, "I don't have time for this." He sat up and glared at her. He brought her arm over his neck and slung it around his neck. He planted his right foot firmly onto the ground, grabbing her side, and pulled her up, "Why did you drink that much?"
"Oh why not, it was all good." Toph smiled and swung at Aang's face.
"Right," Aang dodged the attack and grunted, pulling her up into a more mobile position.
"Oh come on, tell me you've never done this."
"I have never done this."
"Liar."
"Please."
Toph fell silent, and then snorted out a small laugh, "Alright then."
Aang swallowed, and then stumbled, "Whoa!" he took a heavy step forward, his foot wobbling to the right and then he fell to the right pulling Toph down with him.
Toph landed right on top of Aang, "Oops, eh?"
Aang groaned his head in pain, "Yeah…" he opened his eyes, his vision slightly blurred, and when he could see clearly he found himself uncomfortably close to Toph. He blushed.
Toph, eyes half closed, pushed herself off of Aang and hiccupped, "Why are you such a moron? You're such a twinkle toes." She sat up and settled herself on his torso, "Gosh, it's getting really cold." She breathed out, a puff of white billowing out of her mouth.
Aang pushed himself from underneath her and sat down, sighing, "Toph, come on, we need to get home—"
Toph kissed him, for no reason at all, she kissed him.
Aang, eyes dangerously wide; he looked down at Toph, seeing she still had her eyes open.
Toph pulled back, smiling at the sound of a kiss, and hung her head, "You've always wanted one of those from Katara." She slurred.
Aang breathed in, "W…what?" still in shock, poor thing.
"You!" she poked Aang's chest roughly, "You've always wanted to kiss Katara, hold her and all, but NOPE!" she threw her arms up, "Ya can't or else the Avatar State is," she pretended to cut the air with her arms, "Caput."
Aang scowled, "Shut up."
"No, no, don't tell me to shut up, no listen to me, no," Toph waved her arms, shaking her head, and put her hands on Aang's chest, "You love Katara, I know," she swallowed saliva, "But I want you to know." She began to tremble, just a little.
Aang looked at her carefully, "Tell me what?"
Toph hung her head, mumbling some nonsense, and then lifted her head, a surprisingly bright and sweet smile on her face, "I love you."
Aang stared at Toph.
"I just…wanted to tell you that." She mumbled. She groped for a wall, and when she felt the smooth feel of wood against her fingers, she began to push herself off the floor.
"Ah, wait, let me help you." Aang grabbed her free arm and wrapped his arm around her waist for support. He flushed, and pulled her up.
Toph stumbled forward and pulled away from his grip, "I don't need your help."
"Yes you do."
"No I don't."
"Yes."
"No."
"YES!"
"NO! LEAVE ME ALONE!" Toph hissed. She swung her arm and hit Aang's left cheek with the back of her hand, "Just, leave me alone." She mumbled, and began to walk away.
Aang touched his cheek and felt his skin become hotter. He touched his cheek with the back of his hand to cool it down, and ran after Toph.
"Wait, TOPH!"
"Fuck off."
"Toph!" Aang growled.
"Ooh, language, big scare."
"Wait for me!"
"Go to Katara you damn baby."
"Will you listen to me?"
"Why should I?" Toph twirled to him, "I've waited, and waited, and nothing came, so I gave up. And when I tried to I couldn't," she fisted her hands and swung them up and down, "I just can't let go of that feeling, and now that I told you I can!"
Aang dodged her flurry of fists and finally grabbed her wrists, "But I can't!"
Toph pulled back, "Let me go!"
"No, I'm not letting you go, stop acting like a baby!" Aang planted his feet firmly onto the ground, "Listen!"
"No, you listen!"
"I'm done listening, you listen!"
"Shut up!"
"You shut up!"
"Fuck you," Toph managed to pull away one hand and flipped up her middle finger.
Aang growled and clasped his hand over her free one, "Stop swearing!"
"Stop trying to be such a goody two shoes."
"I love you, too!"
Toph nearly fell, "What?" everything was so sudden.
"I don't know," Aang mumbled, "It's just, when you said that, something inside of me came up and I felt the same way." He looked at his feet and glanced at Toph only to look back at his "amazing" feet, "If I didn't feel the same way, why am I still here trying to get you to listen?"
Toph gaped, and then laughed. Hard.
"W…I'm not joking!"
"I know, I know," Toph giggled, "It's just, so cliché I'm laughing so hard at the cliché!"
Aang paused, and smiled, "Yeah, it is cliché, but," he kissed her forehead, "I still like it."
Toph smiled and pulled her hands free from his. She grabbed his face and brought it close to hers, "Me, too."

Then they had sex (kidding!!).
Next one shall be…Katoph! It's an interesting pairing and I always knew someone out there would be thinking, "YURI!" and then write/draw something up. It'll be a challenge for I have never tried writing about a homosexual pairing before.
Ok, so I figured I could make a cycle; Taang, Katoph, Toko, Toph x Longshot and then maybe some other ones I find. After that, it's back to Taang. Joy! Now to work on a five-paragraph essay that had to be at least 4 pages long that's due on Monday (which is tomorrow) splendid.
