Snow
Korra was not happy.
For weeks now, Asami had talked about how much she was looking forward to a snowy Christmas. Apparently, her mother had absolutely loved snow, and some of Asami's fondest memories were of playing in the snow with her parents.
Unfortunately, a bout of unseasonably warm weather had dashed any hope of a snowy Christmas. Asami hadn't said anything, but Korra could tell how disappointed she was. Asami had never been one to slouch, but she had most definitely slouched when the weather forecast had come in, and she'd slouched even more when she'd looked out the window to find the sun blazing away above them without a single snowflake in sight.
Well, Korra refused to accept the situation. Asami was her girlfriend, and if her girlfriend wanted a snowy Christmas, then she was going to get one!

Asami was looking for Korra. The other woman had disappeared shortly after breakfast, which was not doing Asami's mood any favours. Not having any snow on Christmas was bad enough, but not having Korra around was far worse.
However, a quick glance through one of the windows had her rushing over to get a better look. Somehow, impossibly, clouds had begun to gather in the sky. Within minutes, the temperature had dropped remarkably, and it had begun to snow.
Her eyes widened.
Snow? It was snowing after it had been so hot? There was no way this was a coincidence. As quickly as she could, she ran up to the roof of their apartment. Sure enough, Korra was there, her eyes blazing with light, power rolling off her like thunder through a storm-broken sky. Slowly, Korra turned to face her, and the might of the Avatar state faded away.
"Korra…" Asami whispered.
Korra grinned. "Merry Christmas, Asami."
Asami blinked back tears. She could try to handle this in a mature, elegant way or… never mind! She took several steps forward and then hurled herself at Korra. The two of them tumbled to the ground, and Asami yanked Korra into a long, passionate kiss before finally pulling away.
"Thank you, Korra." Asami reached up to brush some snow out of Korra's hair. "And Merry Christmas to you too."
Korra grinned again. "Do I get a kiss like that if I make it snow every Christmas?"
Asami smirked. "Oh, you'll get more than a kiss, but first…" She reached over and grabbed a handful of snow before dumping it on Korra's face. "Snowball fight!" And then she was running across the rooftop.
Korra blinked and scrubbed the snow off her face. "Oh, you did not just – gah!" Another snowball hit her in the face. "Okay. If that's how you want it, it's on, Asami. You think you can take the Avatar in a snowball fight? Allow me to show you the error of your – gah!"
Asami lowered her hand as another snowball hit Korra in the face. "Less talking and more fighting, Korra!"
