Title: Just a Single Touch
Prompt: #001 Accomplished
Notes: So, very, very sweetly, jennibare suggests an idea for Little Things. And I go, "Ooooh, good one." So I watch the clips she suggested. And I get a plethora of ideas. XD Which means…she is a godess. I pimp her awesomeness. (That last sentence sounds so very wrong.)
Takes place during The Old Masters. It is fluff and humor and other stuff. Also, pure speculation as there is very little screen evidence for this drabble. Actually, scratch that, except for a couple of shots were it looks like she's staring at his butt, there is no screen evidence. Let's let bygones be bygones, yeah?
Just a Single Touch
Jun brings back memories. Some good, some bad, some neutral. Okay, mostly bad with very little good and slim to none neutral, but still.
What stands out most in Katara's mind, however, is not how Aang flew to the rescue. Nor how awful it felt to be paralyzed. Not even how bizarre it was to figure out that she could bend perfume as easily as water. No, no. The most memorable thing about that whole Jun incident so very long ago is how Zuko's hand felt on her butt.
Because, let's face it, Katara is a hormonal teenage girl. And maybe, back then, when it first happened, it stayed so clear because she was "outraged" and "violated" and "disgusted". Maybe. But now, now that she knows him and trusts him and maybe has a tiny (really, it's not like she's madly in love with him, promise) crush on him, that memory is painted with pink and little sparkles of gooey affection.
So the thing is, this is not about him touching her butt except in the most roundabout sense. No, this moment, as he talks with Jun about technicalities of family, is that Zuko's very fine, firm tush is right there and nobody's watching her or her slightly twitchy hand and it's not like anybody would know if she were to grope him.
So…blushing just a little bit, she does. Not even a real squeeze. Just a brush. But oh, his butt is just as perfect as she'd imagined and seen and wow…
