I'm seeing butterflies flit past my window through the closed blinds. It's an interesting sight. Meanwhile, this meme has been floating about for a while. Commented on iki_teru and am now contractually obligated to continue it!

The first TEN people to comment in this post get to request that I write a drabble of any pairing/character of their choosing.* ( Read more... )

my baby's got a heart like a rock cast into the sea (Azula/Sokka, 'dark obsession') ivy_chan October 21 2010, 17:13:55 UTC


Azula doesn't have much to do in her life now. She sleeps, she eats, she waits in the cell she's been given for the healers to come and speak to her in low, soothing voices.

She is in the icy North. She knows this because she hears the wind roaring outside despite the fur-lined warmth of her room, she sees the bulky savage clothing of the people caring for her, she recognizes the flavor of their food as Water Tribe.

And she knows the Southern peoples have yet to go before they can create a building of this size and guard it with enough able-bodied benders she suspects this one is surrounded with. Brother Zuzu wouldn't have sent her anywhere soft.

She has a guard who is somewhat young, as far as those go. She supposes there must not be many older men here, what with the cost of war being decreased population: and these waterbenders seem to think their women weak. (she'd like to tell them of the girl who fought her to a standstill under ba sing se and finally beat her at her own palace) Anyway, the guard is young, perhaps just ( ... )

Requesting because I WILL WRITE AT LEAST 100 WORDS A WEEK, DARNIT. Gimme until... tuesday to repost.

...but alas, I am torn between asking for something about Relena being awesome, or not being completely and utterly predictable and asking for, say, Fruits Basket: Kyo trying to buy or bake something nice for Tohru for Valentine's (or was it White Day?), with hilarously dorky results. Is either of those doable?

She and her parents are keeping a calender together, a countdown of years before she turns sixteen. They are entirely different calenders: her parents see that day as a beginning, a time for their guardianship to pass and for Toph to be given to a new guardian, a young man hand-chosen by the Bei Fong Family to properly care for its heir.

Toph sees it as an ending, an ending of this time in which she can, at least, smuggle away some freedom in the nights at he earthrumble championship, in the nights wearing rough cotton and bleeding honestly. When she turns sixteen, she will be arranged to be wed, and she will be expected to spend her life with an older man she doesn't know, someone gentle enough to nurture her. Someone who might not even require for her to bear children, in her delicate state.

It makes her sick. Literally sick, when she thinks of those birthdays to come. When her mother tells her she's growing up beautiful. When her father tells her that her bending lessons will be completed when she is fourteen, to make room for ( ... )

Karin from Naruto?

Okay! Want to add a prompt, too? (According to the meme you don't need to, it just makes it easier for me. XD)

No one trusts her here, but that's okay. She wouldn't know what to do with trust. She's never personally had it given to her. Karin spends most of her time making up outrageous lies about her life with Team Hawk, mainly because it's amusing to watch the expressions of the people around her, but also because it's much less painful than telling the truth ( ... )

Sometimes she meets the Doctor when she's sixteen and barefoot in a garden in a place that may or may not exist. Sometimes she is twenty-four, barely into the academy and juggling majors like hot plates. Sometimes she is five, and there at the right place when the TARDIS hits like a falling star. Sometimes he has someone with him. Mostly he doesn't. The memories collide in her mind like race cars in high-speed collisions ( ... )
