Hey, it's me.
I thought it would be fun to make a thread where not only do you get to ask the characters of Avatar questions, but also get to request drabbles/oneshots. I realize that the question thing's been done before, but I dunno, I just thought it would be fun to do.
As far as pairings, about any pairing's fine for a drabble; I'll try my best. And the drabble/oneshot will be rated PG/PG-13 at the most!
I will try to visit often! I swear!

Oo! Oo! *Raises hand until called on* Yay!
Erm-uh...This question is for Azula. I think you're pretty ambitious (for sure!) and can hold your own but what are your exact feelings...on...The Avatar? Yes- Aang! How do you feel about him? Did you know he is your brothers only hope to coming back home? Now your chasing him!! How do you feel about this, I am wondering? XD
With all due respect~
~BreathingIn
A drabble...a drabble...I'd like to see a Azula and Sokka drabble please! XD Yes- I am a fan of this pairing- I shall reveal it here! X) Watch out Koh! XD
Yay!! Arigato Storybookgirl- this is nice! ^.^

Azula: Me? Ambitious? I suppose so (smirk). As for the Avatar, he is a little boy who is in the way of my father's plans for the world. Lord Ozai will be pleased when I present the Avatar in chains before him. My father will most certainly award me for my troubles. As for my brother, he is a failure. He has shown incapability to perform such a task as capturing a child. But don't worry about Zuzu. I care about him very much and will certainly bring him home. He and my uncle will share a nice and pleasantly cool cell that will protect thier fair skin from the burning sun! I assure you, I do not show mercy often. However, if my brother doesn't act stupid and try to fight against my superior skills, then all will go well and he will return to our beloved country. After all, what are sisters for?
------------------------------------
Sokka leaned against the cave wall, sweaty and out of breath. He looked down at the girl, his enemy, unconscious and bleeding before his feet. The cave's rocky ceiling had collapsed and trapped them. She looked quite pretty when she wasn't trying to kill him and his friends. Without thinking, he wiped the blood from her temple with his sleeve and pulled her ankle out from under some rocks.
Azula, Princess of the Fire Nation, awoke to the realization that some sort of liquid was being poured on her. She leaped up, only to fall to the ground in pain, clasping her head and her ankle.
“Don’t try any firebending,” the boy in front of her said. “You’ll explode if you do; oil tends to do that around fire.”
“You think you’re so smart,” she glared.
Sokka arrogantly grinned. “Yep! You know, you should consider giving up trying to kill people; more people would like you that way.” He casually played with his club, still eyeing her from a safe distance.
“What do you want, Sokka?”
“You know my name?” he asked in surprise.
“Of course! “ she said, smirking. “I ask about the people I’m chasing; you have to know about you’re enemies to learn their...(she smiled) weaknesses.”
She leaned forward and looked up into his eyes. “Try to understand, I just want to please my father! It’s hard being a firebending prodigy, you know. Everyone thinks you’re perfect. They all want to be your friend. But you wonder if anyone really cares about you...about me. All I want is someone to care ab- Ow!”
“What’s wrong?!” Sokka took a step forward, his face displaying worry, yet caution.
“My ankle,” she said. “Do you think it’s broken?”
“I can’t tell from standing over here.”
“Then come closer....”
“I’m not stupid.”
“It hurts!” she cried. “How am I ever going to capture the Avatar and gain my father’s love! How if I am unable to walk!” She hid her face behind her knees, as if to hide tears. Sokka heard her sniffle.
“Hey, hey, don’t cry! I’ll...I’ll...” Sokka wasn’t good around crying women. “Here, I’ll look at your ankle if you promise not to try anything...er...”
“I won’t,” she answered.
Sokka bent down, still eyeing her carefully, and placed his hands on her ankle. He blushed faintly at what he was doing.
“I really appreciate this, Sokka,” said the beautiful princess. “If only you weren’t such an idiot!!”
She kicked him in the head with her heal and took him by the throat.
“Not all princesses are nice, Sokka. Here’s a little kiss to remember me by.”
Then, before she could kiss him, she felt something hard collide with her head. All went black for the second time that day.
Sokka stood up, dropping the rock in his hand.
“To think what she could have done if she though she could firebend,” he muttered.
He leaned down to the unconscious girl at his feet.
“Here’s a tip to remember me by: firebenders won’t explode if they firebend with water on them. And next time you wanna kiss me, don’t try to choke me first.”
---------------------------------------------------
Sorry, it's more of a oneshot than a drabble. I hope you still liked it!

XD I love that!
My question to Zuko's mum: What do you think of your daughter Azula?
I'd also like to request a drabble about how Zuko's mom came to see him one last time before slipping into the dead of night, away from her husband's madness.
Thanks! You're a genius!

Well, Kaangluv, I haven't seen Zuko Alone yet... or seen the screenshots. However, I will try my best Just no garantees that she'll be in character or that the info will be cannon. Like I said, I'll try!!
Lol, genius? Me? (Little brother laughs.) Morgan, she can think I'm a genius if she wants to, ok? (Morgan continues to laugh at me.) Well...fine!
----------------------------------------------
Zuko's mum: Azula is ...she can act very nice, but she tends to take after her father, in my opinion, too much. I wish I could love all my children equally, and I don't like speaking ill of any of them, but I do favor Zuko more. Sadly, this has just had a negative effect on Azula and she rarely speaks to me now.
-------------------------------
I'd also like to request a drabble about how Zuko's mom came to see him one last time before slipping into the dead of night, away from her husband's madness.
"Mother, don't touch it! Please!"
Prince Zuko turned away from the woman.
"You are my son, Zuko. I love you, I made you, and I can look at you... if you'll allow me to."
"You did not make the scar."
"But it is a part of you, now. And I love you; you know that."
"Does my father love me?! Does my father look at me like you do?! Does he try to heal my scar?!! DOES HE LOVE ME?!"
The Fire Lady leaned over his shoulder and kissed her son's cheek.
"Your father... doesn't show mercy. Sometimes it seems his power has poisoned his heart. We have to be strong, Zuko. I know you will be. Keep your heart safe from harm. If it's broken now, like your scar, hopefully it will get better with time."
"My scar will never heal. It will always be a reminder of how I failed him."
"You are not the only one leaving, Zuko. I too am leaving the palace. I can no longer sleep beside that man, not now that he has hurt my son so."
"Leaving!" the boy turned around to face his mother. "No! Mother, your place is here."
"No, it isn't. Take care, Zuko."
Her eldest child kneeled before her and kissed her hand. "I will give the Fire Nation honour," he said, "and regain mine. Stay here, I will come back to-"
The woman turned and fled into the darkness. Faintly, the prince could here her last words to him: I love you, Zuzu.
-------------------------------------
So, it's a lot more than 100 words, but at least it's shorter than my last one. I hope you like it!

Oh thank you! I'm glad you liked it! Hugs back!
Oh, and btw Everyone, you don't have to ask a question AND request a drabble/oneshot at the same time! though I have fun and love doing both. It's an and/or sort of thing.

“Don’t try any firebending,” the boy in front of her said. “You’ll explode if you do; oil tends to do that around fire.” OMG, that’s brilliant. *resists the urge to steal the idea* I have a drabble idea that I just can’t manage to perfect. Aang and co. save Zuko from Azula, overhearing her insulting Zuko during the fight, as well. After, Zuko’s upset, and Aang decides to “cheer up” Zuko by telling him what a powerful enemy he is, and how intimidated they are of him, etc. The others join in as well. (Toph wouldn’t know him very well, but I’m sure she’d have something snarky to say.) The idea sounds funny in my head, at least.

^LOL! That's hilarious! I'll try my best!
As for the oil thing, I stole the idea from The Prince's Gift (I forget who wrote it, but it's the sequel to Vicki So's "The Gift."), so kudos to that person! But in my drabble I made it so it wasn't really oil, just water. I thought that that would make more sense since I don't think Sokka carries oil around with him constantly.
-----------------------------------------------
Zuko, ex-Prince of the Fire Nation, was sitting on the ground under a tree, his head burried in his arms. Despite Aang and the gang's efforts to "cheer him up," Zuko was not responding to any of it.
"Maybe he's dead!" said Sokka. Katara promptly hit him in the arm.
"Come on, Zuko! You were outnumbered! Three fire nation girls against one? It was an unfair fight!" said Aang. "And maybe now that we've rescued you, we can all become friends." Zuko still didn't move.
"Maybe he is dead," said Toph.
"Would it make any difference?" asked a muffled voice.
"Oh, Zuko, what would you're uncle say!" said Katara. "Now let's see that menacing frown, huh? Those evilly narrowed eyes. That proud high-held head! The things that make you you!"
"You forgot the arrogant smirk," added Sokka.
"And the arrogant smirk! Your trademark. ...next to your...mysterious and handesome scar."
Zuko scoffed. "My scar is hideous."
"It's beautiful!!" cried Sokka. Everyone looked at him for a moment before continuing.
"I think you're really scary and intimidating, Zuko!" said Aang. "You're harder to fight than Zhao!"
"Yeah!" said Toph, just trying to be a part of it all.
"And did Zhao have a scar?" enouraged Sokka. "Did Zhao have a six pack?"
"Was Zhao as hot as you? ...er, I mean...as far as firebending goes?" interrupted Katara.
"Thanks, but I don't need any compliments," said Zuko as he rose to his feet. "I need to find my emuhorse."
"You mean that one?" Aang pointed across the camp to where Momo was chattering on top of the emuhorse's head as the creature was eating Appa's hay.
"It looks like he's pretty at home," said Sokka.
"Do you want to join us?" Aang extended his hand to the prince, holding his breath to see what he'd do...
--------------------------------------------------
Little longer than I intended, but I hope it still amuses you!

Sorry for the double post...but I felt like writing... So yeah.
-----------------------------------
Aang looked up at the full moon; the stars glittering in his eyes and the moonlight shining off the top of his bald head. He looked down at his reflection in the still waters of the stream he sat by. She was beautiful; that waterbender. Sometimes he found himself just wanting to give her a big bear hug; other times, he wished she would lean her head on his shoulder so he could feel her soft hair against his cheek and lips. What would become of them, now? How could he tell her his feelings? Or did she know already? He thought he was imagining her face in front of his eyes for a moment, but-
"Aang? Is something wrong?"
He turned his face away from the water and opened his mouth to speak...
----------------------------------------
He had found her necklace, the pendant broken in three peices. He had found it in the dirt and dust of a village that had been nearly destroyed by the Fire Nation. Now he squatted in the trees overlooking a moonlit clearing, gazing down at the weilded, mended pendant. He leapt soundlessly down from his perch and crept over to a sleeping girl. He folded the frayed ribbon and pendant into her soft, limp hand. That's when he noticed a little, sleepy bald boy staring incomprehendingly into his mask. Zuko held a finger up against his wooden lips and slipped back into the shadows of the trees.
----------------------------------------
The girl grinned as the warm rays of the sun kissed her childish nose and cheeks. Her world was one of darkness, yet she saw the flowers flow in the breeze, the butterfly land delicately on a tall blade of grass, ...and the boy sneaking up behind her.
Before his lips finished forming the word "BOO!" the ground had miraculously risen from under his feet and tossed him into a shrub.
"Gotcha again, Twinkle-Toes!" she smiled.
-----------------------------------------------
Yeah, I flelt like writing today. I might even write some of my other story today... Finally! It's one I'm writing with my brother. It's not Avatar-based at all, but it's fun. I just got a lot of inspiration today for one of my characters and I'm really excited! Yay for characterization! Lol, his name is Gary. He's evil, but I LOVE writing him! It's great!
Lol, anyway...enough about that.
I hope you guys like these drabbles! They're actually close to 100 words! Wow!

They are nice! I love the middle one the most.
Now, I need to tear myself away from this forum and, you know, write stuff myself.
