Spoopy Avatar Special

Prompt(s): Fluffy ears and pink sparkles (Submitted by Boogum)

Katara huffed and moaned and stomped around the Jasmine Dragon. She was in quite a mood. You see, she had no costume for Ba Sing Se's annual Avatarween party and it was tonight! Oh, what was she to do! Everyone else had their costumes picked out ages ago but she had been so busy doing waterbending things that waterbenders do with water because that's what they bend that she had completely forgotten.

"Oh, calamity!" she moaned, throwing a dramatic hand across her forehead. "How could this happen to me?"

Just then, Iroh bustled over with an apron and a pot of leaf juice and asked, "What's wrong, Katara? Whatever is the matter? Are you not well? Is something troubling you? Did something happen? Is something not alright? Do you have a worry you need to share? Is something misaligned in the universe? Is your mind preoccupied with a matter of concern? Is everything not as it should be?"

Katara nodded. "The Avatarween party is this evening and I have no costume!" she wailed, her beautiful sapphire eyes welling with tears. "I can't possibly go without a costume!"

Iroh nodded sagely. "Ah, yes. That is quite the predicament. A real problem. Certainly a matter of grave concern. An issue that must be dealt with promptly. A debacle requiring immediate action. A big pickle."

"What are you going as?" Katara asked the elderly man sorrowfully with rage in her eyes and a delighted grin on her face.

"Why, my dear, I'm going as a jasmine dragon," Iroh replied.

"Oh!" Katara exclaimed tearfully. "What about you guys?" she asked Sokka and Zuko who had just walked into the room from another room in the teashop. The teashop had many rooms to walk in and out of. It was a very roomy teashop with many people walking in it. This included Sokka and Zuko, who just were in a different room than the one Katara and Iroh were in but now were in the same one.

"I'm going as a boomerang!" Sokka sobbed exasperatedly in joy.

"I'm going as Lee," Zuko deadpanned exuberantly.

"Wow! Those things you are going as are so cool and very interesting," Katara whispered. "But I can't be those things because I am a woman." She hung her head in euphoria.

"That's okay, Katara!1" Aang exclaimed, bursting through the wall like the kool-aid man if he were a character that was in Avatar: The Last Airbender and also was in Ba Sing Se. "I've got the perfect costume for you!"

Katara's eyes grew large and she clasped her hands together. "Whatever is it, Aang?7"

"It's me!" Aang threw up his hands and pink, glittery sparkles rained down on Katara. When the ash cleared away Katara was bald and looked just like AANG!123 It was an Avatarween miracle!

"It looks great!" Toph shouted, examining Katara closely with her eyes. She had also come in behind Aang. You couldn't see her because Aang was so big.

"Thank you, Aang!" Katara murmured spookily. "I now believe in Christmas."

Just then, Suki came in brandishing a pair of super fluffy rabaroo ears. "Also, these are for you, too!" She placed the ears on Katara's head. "Now you're sure to win the Prince's heart!"

Katara beamed. The outfit was absolutely perfect. "Come on guys!" she cried, throwing her fist in the air. "Let's go fight the Fire Lord!"

Everyone cheered. It was a very merry Avatarween.

"Sokka, I asked you about the history of Avatarween. Not for a ridiculous story that told me literally nothing," Katara groused, placing her hands on her hips and cocking an eyebrow at her brother. "How did you even come up with that?"

"Yeah, I'm kind of impressed, actually," Toph chimed in. Both her eyebrows were raised in wonder.

Sokka scrunched up his brow and regarded the rest of Team Avatar with confusion. "What are you talking about? I didn't say anything."

Suki frowned. "Yes, you did. We were all listening." The rest of them nodded in agreement.

Sokka shook his head. He looked genuinely perplexed. "Huh? But I really didn't say anything. I have no idea what you're even talking about."

Suki and Katara shared a baffled look which was mirrored by the rest of their friends. Toph was the one who finally spoke up. "But if you didn't tell that story...then who did?"

A very spooky Avatarween to everyone who actually clicked on this. Color me impressed.

This was written as a product of boredom when two of the classes I was meant to be teaching didn't show up. I asked my awesome friend Boogum for a crack prompt and she replied with "fluffy ears and pink sparkles". I hope you enjoyed this, Kim.
