Avatar Drabble Request Meme!



It's quite simple.

1) Request a drabble using the following format!
Pairing: [any pairing of your choice! if you'd prefer to request a character or group, feel free to change 'pairing' to 'character(s)'.]
Rating: [your preferred rating. example: if you aren't wanting any extreme making out and/or bloody violence, list your rating as PG. Nothing above R, though, please.]
Prompt: [can be anything. A word, a situation, a song, poetry, etc. Be creative!]

2) Look at the other requests, and fulfill any that strike your fancy! When doing so, in the title of your comment, please write:
[title of your drabble] (pairing/character, rating)

That's really all there is to it. :D

Is it okay to request/write drabbles that deal with events occurring in episodes that haven't officially aired yet? (such as: Western Air Temple, The Firebending Masters, and The Boiling Rock)
As of right now, yes. But please post a spoiler warning at the beginning of the drabble. That way, readers can scroll past easily if wanting to remain unspoiled. But what about after these episodes air? As a sign of common courtesy, please still make a quick mention of any spoilers for all episodes aired this week. Any drabbles/requests that do not follow these rules will be deleted!
Are any pairings not allowed?
Nope! You can request anything and everything!
Even slash/femslash/incest/etc?
Yep! Seriously, don't hesitate. If other people don't like it, they don't have to read it/write for it. Simple as that.
What if I'm wanting a purely friendshippy drabble (as in, nothing romantic?)
No problem! Just make sure to state that in your request.
Am I allowed more than one request?
Definitely! That's what's going to keep this going. Come back again and again!
If I have more than one request, should I post them all in one comment?
No. Please, make a different comment for each separate request. This makes it easier for people to reply to a prompt, as well as for archiving purposes.
If I make a request, do I HAVE to fill one?
It certainly would be nice of you to. After all, this meme won't amount to much without participation. But it's not required, and don't feel pressured to keep your number of requests and number of drabbles equal. This is supposed to be fun!
Uh oh! A request I want to write for has already been filled!
No worries! There's no limit on how many people can write for one request.
ZOMG! Someone's requesting [insert pairing here]! I hate that stupid pairing! Can I cause a ruckus over it?
Please don't. People like what they like -- nothing you say or do is going to change anyone's mind. Basically, if you wanna get mad, then do it somewhere else. Any rude comments or flames are going to be dealt with severely.
Are crossovers with other fandoms allowed?
No, not this time. Sorry!
Can I pimp this meme at my community/journal/website/etc?
Are you kidding? PIMP THE HELL OUT OF IT. Get your friends involved!
When does this end?
Never! Well, maybe not, but let's keep it going as long as we can! I'm hoping it can last through this week, what with all the frenzy over the finale. We shall see!

[we won't get used to being gone] (mai/ty lee, pg)

hah, i started writing this before the request was filled, so i thought i might as well post it. My first time writing the characters, so i hope it's all right. *frets*

[Spoilers for The Boiling Rock!]

The cell is cold, and she can't tell if she's still breathing, if sunlight still exists in a room, a world without. She traces thin fingers through each curve in the stone, waits and waits and waits.

On the fourth day: a hand, calloused, settles in her hair. "Mai," a small voice whispers, and she doesn't know what to say, so she just reaches up, brushes her fingertips along Ty Lee's wrists, and the girl sighs, suddenly at ease.

On the ninth day: Ty Lee grips her hand, so hard that she can feel it in her chest, along the low of her back. "I think I'm alone," the girl says to no one in particular, and Mai can't see her face but she thinks the girl is smiling, smiling, as though it is all but a dream.

"I dreamt of colors last night," Ty Lee says, almost desperately. "Red, and purple, and -- pink. There's still pink, isn't there?"

Mai looks to her. She can barely see the color, tattered, smudged, curving along the girl's hips.

She turns away.

On the fourteenth day: she has to ask.

"Why?"

There's no need to say more. Ty Lee's eyes sink through all the darkness, threads of gray glimmering, reminding her of hazy sunlight.

"She was going to hurt you," Ty Lee says softly, innocently, as though it's obvious. "She went too far -- oh, Mai, she went too far. Weren't we all friends once? How could she ever ---"

Her voice trails off, caught up in a dry sob that seems to pierce the air itself. Mai has never heard Ty Lee cry, not once, and it is too much, too soon, too real. She reaches over; smudges her nail across the tear that's sliding down the girl's neck.

"My hero," is all she says, dryly, and when Ty Lee falls against her, it is enough.

Eee! I love it. Beautifully written, absolutely. Fabulous work, thank you!

And I'm for as much Mai/Ty Lee as I can get. ;D
