IMPORTANT AUTHOR'S NOTE: for set 2 of the list (feelings) I'm just making one single chapter. I'm experimenting with something, to see how well I can write with even more boundaries than I already have. I'm writing every prompt in this set with 3 sentences to test myself. That, and it makes writing these so much faster. I'm blank on full one shots for this set and there are so many good ones coming up to get too. Besides, if this doesn't work out good, I'll never do it again. So, enjoy!
Sentence Sets 8-16 of Set 2
"Emotional"
for set 2: Feelings
---
Sad:
Sokka watched his bride march up the aisle to meet him with tears in his eyes. As she stood before him, he let out a soft sniffle. "You're a sad, sad little man," his blind bride whispered.
Angst:
His heart tore at the edges, threatening to bleed him out. Blood dripped slowly from the gaping hole in his chest, sizzling as it rolled down. The demon he faced merely smiled, "Ready to go again, big brother?"
Happy:
Little eyes watched with intensity as Aang leaned in to kiss a waiting Katara. Just as the young monk's lips brushed against the water bender's, a squeal could be heard outside the window. Momo prodded Appa's nose wanting payment, as the giant bison groaned at losing yet another bet to the shifty eyed lemur.
Melancholy:
The song seemed to take the listener in and not let go. It led the heart down dark forest paths, through wide open plains in the middle of night, and to a place where all your fears of heartache thrived. Iroh sighed and left the glade in which the whippoorwill sang.
Lost:
The fever hadn't broken through the night, but grew stronger with each passing second. Golden eyes fluttered every few minutes in fear, scared of the familiar feeling sweeping back over him. As the sun broke into the apartment window, Zuko finally broke down and cried.
Depressed:
Mai studied the situation in front of her. Azula was attacking Zuko and the Avatar, and Ty Lee was introducing the water tribe brats to her fists. Coming to a conclusion, Mai walked up to Iroh and asked politely, "Please kill me."
Hyper:
It was the first time that anyone had seen her like this, and they were quickly realizing they never wanted to again. Within the span of three hours, the house they were staying in was toppled, the wall separating the upper ring from the middle demolished, and the king's palace was now setting on a permanent tilt. "Aang," Sokka began, "remind me why we come back to Ba Sing Se with Toph? "
Free:
The cool beat of drums and strange tones of music filled the small village. Flowing their way into the streets, the hungry nomads spotting a vendor on the streets calling out to all those passing by. "Hey," Moku pointed, "cabbages!"
Nervous:
The minute he heard the hippy's cry of "cabbages" his heart filled with dread. His palms were sweaty and his heartbeat was racing as the nomads came forth and fingered his children. He tore at his hair and walked off screaming, "why didn't I listen to mother?!"

AN: Last two for MormonMaiden as a thanks for reviewing every chapter! For anyone reading, I want suggestions on a pairing from the show that is not any of the main characters (the Gaang, Uncle and Zuko, Azula and her posse) for the prompt: # 22: "I've been here a long time. Can't imagine I'll ever leave."
Thanks for the reviews, hits, reads, blah blah blah! Drop a line!
