Disclaimer: As much as I wish I was M&B, I am sadly not, for I am female.

Author's Notes: In honor of the season three premier, I bring you season three Tokka fic! This is the start of a collection of drabbles called Ten to Three, one for every new episode of Avatar that comes out. So here's the spoiler warning in advance:

BASED ON "THE AWAKENING"; MILD SPOILERS

Enjoy and please review!

Ten to Three


1. blind date

"This looks like a good place," Sokka said, peering into the nearly empty restaurant. It had small tables, a generic Fire Nation menu, and an old couple as waiters. "What d'you think, Toph?"

She didn't bother to correct him as she replied, "It looks great. Now let's get some grub!"

They found a cozy table in the corner and squished into the cramped space, their backs against the wall and the chairs pulled close around the table. Sokka bumped his knee against hers rhythmically as the tiny old woman smiled at them from across the counter.

She leaned into her husband, and although Sokka couldn't hear what she said, the blind girl could: "They make such a handsome couple, don't they?"

Toph didn't bother to correct her.
