Disclaimer: Oops, I forgot this in the first chapter. But its kinda obvious I don't own Avatar, or any of its characters.
AN: I didn't want all these notes in the first chapter, so I'll just say them here. First, they are in the order I wrote them in, not chronologially. Second, I'm pretty sure the official definition of a drabble is only 100 words, but I've done that before on a different account, and I think it's funner and less restricting to have no limit. I think the longest one I've written so far was about 1000 words. And so now enjoy Chapter Two.

"So then we ran into some nomads-" Aang started as he and his friends sat around the table at the teashop.
"Oh sweet spirits!" Sokka moaned, "they were the most annoying people I've ever met. Even more annoying than Ty Lee." The pink-clad acrobat scowled at Sokka and threw a teabag at his head. "At least you don't sing."
"Secret tunnel!" Aang belted in an imitation of Chong. Sokka groaned.
"Secret tunnel! Through the mountains." Katara added, her singing possibly worse than Chong and Aang's combined. "They weren't that annoying to normal, happy people. Sokka's just a depressed, cynical person and he didn't trust in love." She smiled over at Aang and rubbed her nose against his.
Toph, Zuko, and Sokka pretended to gag but Ty Lee just smiled and Mai, as usual, rolled her eyes. "Go on with the stories Twinkletoes."
"So they told us about this secret tunnel, through the mountains, but Sokka didn't want to go through it." Aang said as tilted his head at Sokka.
"Oh shut up, I just wanted to get to Omashu in the quickest way possible!"
"Yeah and since going Sokka's 'quickest way possible' ended in us being shot at by the Fire Nation, we went through the tunnel. And Sokka, being the great leader he is, led us into a bunch of dead ends."
"Good going Sokka," Zuko said, slapping his friend on the shoulder.
"Oh like you would have done better! Anyway, I'll take over for now. So Appa got scared and went crazy and knocked into a wall and cause a cave-in. I got stuck with the hippies, and Katara and Aang were by themselves."
"Ooo," Ty Lee cooed, "Aang and Katara alone together in the Tunnel of Two Lovers,"
"Well, we did trust in love," Aang said, putting his arm around his girlfriend and pulling her close.
"So how did you get out Sokka?" Toph asked.
"Oh! Well, this is good! See, unlike Aang and Katara who 'trusted in love', I ran into some badgermoles and found out that they could Earthbend! So we rode on them out of the tunnel."
"So… in the tunnel of love… you trusted in a blind Earthbender?" Zuko asked, nudging Sokka in the side and winking. The entire table burst into laughter, except for Sokka, who stared at the blind Earthbender across the table from him, as if he were seeing her in a new light.
