Author's Notes: N through P now. I figured I'd post them three at a time now, so that means there are... three chapters left.

Nearsighted, I think, was my mom's idea. She said something (can't remember what, though), and the idea just popped in my head. It surprised me. Opaque: in which Sokka says something color-related that Toph actually understands. Pretty was, of course, brought on by The Tales of Ba Sing Se, an episode which I love and yet hate.

Review, please! I asked politely!

Nearsighted

Sometimes Sokka wondered if he was nearsighted.

He would be doing some trivial thing like brushing Appa's fur or talking to Katara or washing up and all of a sudden, Toph would walk by and all he would be able to see would be her—Toph.

It was strange, he thought, that his nearsightedness was limited to Toph. So strange, in fact, that he asked Katara about it. She only laughed at him and told Toph what he had said. Toph smiled and blushed and Sokka felt nearsighted again.

That's when he decided that being nearsighted wasn't all that bad.

Opaque

"Snoozles, are my eyes really green?"

Sokka looked up from drawing posters of Appa and squinted at her.

"Sort of," he said, and leaned forward on his hands to get a better look. "They're kind of opaque, but definitely green."

Toph hmmed and then asked, "What does opaque look like?"

"It's kind of like… ice," Sokka decided. "It's like watching penguins swimming under the ice."

"Penguins are green?"

"No! They're black and white."

Toph flicked a pebble at him. "Then how're my eyes like penguins?"

"They're not! They're like… like Earthbending on sand. Everything's fuzzy."

Toph's pale eyes widened. "Ooh."

Pretty

"Katara told me I'm pretty. Sokka, d'you think I'm pretty?"

An awkward silence fell over the table that Toph smirked at. These people were so easily embarrassed.

Beside her, Katara smiled. "Well, Sokka?"

He shifted in his seat. "Why're you asking me? I'm involved with Suki!"

"It's a simple question, Snoozles," said Toph, her smirk growing.

"I think Toph is pretty," chimed in Aang.

"Thank you, Aang," said Katara. "What d'you say, Sokka?"

He mumbled something.

"What was that, Snoozles?" taunted Toph.

"I said I think you're very pretty!"

"I'm blind, Snoozles, not deaf. But thanks anyway."

Sokka only mumbled.
