Random Avatar oneshots I wrote … BECAUSE I FELT THE URGE. WTF, haha. Anyway, there are a few pairings and each will be a different chapter.

Takes place sometime randomly in season 3 … -shifty eyes- … well, as best as I could, anyway.

The pairings will be (in order of chapters): Tokka (TophXSokka), Kataang (KataraXAang), Taang (TophXAang), Sukka (SukiXSokka), and Zutara (ZukoXKatara)

Tokka

--Color of Your Eyes--

The Blind Bandit sat atop a boulder she made, 'overlooking' the island they were currently on. She smacked her fist against the boulder, sending vibrations through the earth out to the sea, where she could feel tiny creatures crawl around on the rocky bottom and the rush of the waves against the slowly eroding edges.

Toph sighed, her bangs falling over her eyes as she thought about home, and how different it was, but also how much the same it could be. Sure, the rock here was mostly hardened lava, and sure, there seemed to be a lot more oceans around, but dirt was dirt and rock was rock, whether it was brown or black because of what it was made up of.

"We were wondering where you went off to," said a voice behind her, and she could feel the shape of Sokka walking up the path to meet her.

She jumped down from the boulder and smashed it back into it's place in the ground. She looked out at nothing but spoke to her friend, "I was just taking a look around," she said, playing with the words since they both know she can't necessarily see.

"Funny, I thought you were just sleeping," the older boy teased. "Because you were just kind of sitting there like Appa does when he's bored."

"Bored? He's just lazy, the big oaf."

They laughed for a second, but something shifted in the air. "There's that smell again," Sokka frowned, scrunching his nose.

"I smell it, too," replied the earthbender. "It keeps getting stronger the closer we get to the Fire Nation mainland."

Toph could feel Sokka kick the dirt angrily. "I hate that smell. It's like burning … burning … well, everything. Reminds me of when we were up at the Northern Water Tribe when it was laid to siege. Everything was burning … the snow was coated black with ash …" he shuddered, angry with what they had done.

"But you guys won, right? I've only heard the story once," she reminded him.

Sokka smiled, although it's not like Toph could see it. "Yeah, we whooped their butts! I mean, don't get me wrong … we had a lot of losses, and a few tragedies, but … in the end, we prevailed! And you know, for a second I forgot you weren't there … it just seems like you've always been with us, Toph."

Her pale eyes searched the air, wanting to see his face, but finding nothing. She downcast her eyes, not bothering anymore. But she picked up her tone and said, "Always, huh? Well, I'm glad I fit in with some kind of family."

Sokka nodded. "Me, too. I'm glad I found Dad, but before that me and Katara were kind of on our own with Gran-Gran. But then we met Aang, and then you, and now we're all on this crazy journey together! But at least we are together," he added. "Having people with you is better than being alone."

"Which reminds me," said Toph, beginning to walk back to camp. "Does Twinkle Toes really think he's gonna face the Fire Lord alone? Why can't we help him?"

"You know, I'm not sure … I'll tell you what, though: I'm dying to give that Fire Lord a good slice across his pretty little face with my sword; I'd cut that goatee right off!"

Toph giggled as she walked, Sokka not far behind her. He jogged and caught up with her, camp within sight but too far away to see any movement.

After a moment, Sokka burst out suddenly, "What color would your eyes be if you could see?"

Toph stopped mid-step and cocked her head at him. "Where'd that come from?!"

Sokka rubbed the back of his head in a slightly embarrassed manner. "Sorry, it's been in and out of my mind for a long time, and I thought of it again, but I guess it came out my mouth this time."

Toph paused, debating whether or not to hit him or just answer the bizarre question. In the end, she did both. With a whack on the head she said, "That's a real dumb question! …But …"

Sokka looked up at her, since she had banged the back of his head and made him face downwards. "…But?"

"But … they would've been green. 'Rich emerald green like the jewelry your mother wears,' the doctor had told me when I was little, because my mom asked the same question once."

The older boy blinked, a little confused for a second, but then shrugged. "Wow. That's kind of hard to imagine."

"Only because it isn't there," she said gruffly, "Just like it's hard to imagine what color your eyes or Aang's eyes or Katara's eyes are, since they aren't there when I look at any of you. I only see vague shapes when the vibrations go around a body. But I don't know what any of you look like, really."

He frowned. "I had a feeling that that's what you saw, but … it's kind of depressing."

Toph smirked. "No more depressing than the weight of saving the world resting on our shoulders," she retorted. "But still … sometimes I wonder, too. What about you, Sokka? What color are your eyes, if I could see them?"

That caught him off-guard. "Oh, well …" he fished around for any good words to say, but they only came out sounding stupid. "I guess … you'd see blue."

"What kind of blue?"

He blushed slightly. "Well … um … I don't know. I don't really get near a mirror often, but people always say me and Katara have the same eyes. So if I base it off of her eyes … I think it'd be a dark, frosty blue, like the icy water down in the South Pole."

Toph blushed and smiled. "Sounds pretty."

Sokka laughed a little nervously as they neared camp, able to see some movement now, Appa big and unanimous in the corner of the campsite. "Yeah, well, yours would be, too, I bet."
