WIP!!!
Hey hun, since I'm having such a shit week, you should do some prompts for me. Taang for #5?
I’ll definitely do some prompts for you my friend. This one got very long, enjoy! 💕
For context: they’re in their mid 20s and Pro Bending is a new thing. (I hc Toph actually helped to invent the game)
5- "Let me bandage you up." Taang
Toph hissed, her knee flinching away from her own hands. She couldn’t see the damage, but she could feel that it was bad.
“Damn, that looks like it hurts. Let me bandage you up.”
She hadn’t even noticed Aang step into the room since her feet were up on a bench. She only nodded to him in answer— it was better if someone could see what they were doing.
Aang sat next to her, placing her feet on his lap. He gently cleaned her wounded knee and started to wrap it. Toph felt a blush rise in her cheeks as he easily lifted her leg. Every touch of his fingers against her skin made her nerves tingle pleasantly.
“There, all done.”
Toph smirked, “What, no lecture?”
Aang chuckled, his thumb absentmindedly tracing patterns on her ankle. “What’s there to lecture you about? You’re always cautious so you almost never get hurt in the ring.”
She felt a darker flush spread across her cheeks as a warm feeling grew in her chest.
“You only got hurt because some guy took advantage of your blindness and put ice under you— it was thanks to your quick thinking and reflexes that you didn’t get more injured, or beaten.” He grinned at her, playfully leaning into her a little more.
Toph bit her lip, trying to hide her smile. The fact that he watched her fights, and was able to observe her so well and compliment her at the end of her rounds just… it made her so happy.
“Thanks, Aang…”
He poked her nose. “You’re lucky that was your last round, you wouldn’t be able to fight like this.”
She shrugged. It was good timing. Most people in the ring took advantage of her blindness— it was the only hope of having a chance at beating her in a pro bending match.
“Wanna go to Katara? You probably don’t want your knee to scar.” His hands were still moving over her calves and it was driving her insane. Was he purposefully teasing her? Or was he just trying to comfort her?
“I don’t care about scars.” She shrugged, trying to keep her voice normal.
Aang hummed, caressing her unblemished knee. “But your skin is so pretty.”
Toph flushed and stuttered. What was she supposed to say to that?!
“Here, I’ll carry you there.” He wound his arm around her waist, pulling her closer to him until she was practically on his lap.
“A-Aang!” She complained, completely flustered as she didn’t know where to put her hands.
“What?”
She internally groaned. Was he dense?
It was so hard having a crush on your oblivious best friend…
“This is embarrassing, let me walk.” Toph pushed slightly at his arm and chest— spirits, this man was made of pure muscle.
Aang scoffed, “I’m not letting you walk and injure yourself more. I’m carrying you, T.”
She scrambled for an excuse, “Uh, at least let me ride piggyback instead!”
That would at least draw less attention to them.
“Fine, fine, here.” Aang turned on the bench to let her climb on. She was probably about to pop a blood vessel with all this blushing. Toph let her hands roam up his wide shoulders and her legs settle on either side of his back. She almost squealed as Aang’s hands gripped her thighs and dragged her flush against his back.
Maybe this was not a good idea.
Aang stood from the bench easily with her weight on his back— as if she was nothing more than a backpack. She felt herself wondering what it would be like to be slung like this on his front side instead.
Toph prayed he didn’t feel her heart racing. This was so pathetic.
“Alright! Onward to the healer!”
Toph settled her chin on his shoulder, “Don’t think this pit stop gets you out of taking me to lunch. I still won my match after all.”
“I’d never dream of it. Katara first, then ramen.”
“Deal, Twinkletoes.”
She’d just have to ignore her body’s hormones for a little while longer…

5, 28, 49
5. Do you sleep with a stuffed animal?
No. It's more like @authorjoydragon's squishmallows take over my side of the bed every night and I'm left with about 1 inch of space before the edge of the bed.
28. How are you, really?
Fuckin tired of living in a hotel room, that's for damn sure.
49. What does your last text say?
I congratulated my sister on graduating college (not typing it out because I can't be bothered and because it has potentially identifiable info that I don't want online).

Irosami Holiday Fic Recs!
Tis the season to be jolly, and that includes my favorite couple.
"A Future Industries Fling" by obsidian_irises. Asami lets her hot co-worker take her home to his penthouse after an office holiday party. He does not disappoint.
"The Realists Guide to Romance", "Mistletoe and Mischief," and "Merry Christmas, Iroh" by @badlucksav. Three very different spins on an Irosami holiday find our pair first as the losers in a Hallmark classic. Dumped by their partners for small-town love, these big city power players find themselves unexpectedly single in transit. In the second fic, Iroh lies to his family about having a girlfriend to get them off his back, only to have them insist he bring her home for the holidays. Finally, married Irosami prove their relationship is still spicy and full of surprises.
"The Naughty List" by @authorjoydragon, in which Irosami's Mr. and Mrs. Claus costumes prove entirely too distracting.
"Kiss" by @old-and-new-friends (part of a collection of Winter-themed prompts). Iroh struggles to find the right time for a first kiss.
Not quite Irosami but still fun:
"Peace on Earth and Puppies" by @lone-star-ranger. Mostly Zutara, with background Irosami
"Merry and Bright" and the sequel, "A Happy New Year" by @worthmorethanrubies25. Mostly Wanorra, background Irosami

I've made the peanut butter bread a few times, and it's delicious - I took a suggestion from @authorjoydragon the last time I made it, and sprinkled brown sugar over the top of it just before putting it in the oven. Made it so much better.
Also, worth noting, he has a few videos on his YouTube accounts where he does slower, in depth videos on select recipes, as well as (in some cases) variations on those recipes.
Here are a bunch of B. Dylan Hollis's recipes typed up in google docs for those who want to make these recipes.
I've only got a few so far, but I'll continue to type up the ones he likes and add them here. Shoot me an ask if you have any requests for recipes to type up, but please check the original version of the post first. When I add new recipes, I edit the original post and then srb it for others to see.
DISCLAIMER: A lot of his videos he goes pretty fast or does not include exact measurements, so they may not be 100% accurate, but I'm typing them up to the best of my abilities.

Pinto Bean Cake

10 let's get some Taangst
Taangst, you say?
Okay it's not too bad actually. This isn't Taangst Week 2.0. Not yet, anyways. (@mycomfortblanket and @authorjoydragon still won't let me do that.)
One of Toph's biggest regrets is that she didn't make a move on Aang when she could. They'd been young and free and single...and she hadn't made a move. She's never sure why she didn't - just that she regrets it every day that she never had the chance.
She always thought she would, and then police departments, conflicts, new nations, and time got in the way, and before she knew it, a lifetime had blinked by.
And then Aang was gone.
The one comfort she has, running her fingers over the metal versions of group portraits Aang had made her for her, decades ago, is that each day, she's a day closer to seeing him again.

“Are you staring at me while I sleep again, Avatar?”
“Always.” He grinned wide, tucking a strand of hair behind her ear.
She flushed and mumbled, “I really don’t get why you like staring at me so much.”
“Because you’re beautiful. And I like to gaze into the eyes of my soulmate.” Aang poked her side teasingly, leaning down closer to her face.
“Soulmate?” Azula scoffed and rolled her eyes. “Please, Aang. As if there’s such a thing.”
He hummed and rolled to his back, tucking his hands behind his head. “You don’t think so? The monks believed in soulmates, but they always told me that soulmates weren’t found; they were made.”
Read the rest here! For @avatar-march-madness Prompt Soulmates - Azulaang

Hey, Joy! I hope you’re having a great day. 💜 Have a little All the Lights!
Toph blasts through the doors of the Jasmine Dragon mid morning on Sunday, cane held aloft and combat boots tracking dirty snow all over the clean mahogany floors.
“Sparky!” she bellows to the tea house at large.
Tiny though Toph is, she bears a fierce scowl and holds her ground near the entrance, broad and dominant, ears listening intently for any telltale signs of Zuko. He turtleducks even further into his hoodie, mute and unsure of whether or not he should be thankful that the Jasmine Dragon is mostly empty due to the weather. On one hand, it means that Toph can’t cause a scene in front of tons of customers. On the other, it means less ambient noise to hide him from her wrath.
“He’s over here,” Azula calls.
Send me a 🌹 and I'll share some words from a WIP!

For the salty ask, since you wanna stir the pot I looked for controversial ones 😂
6, 16, and 19. Stir away.
(Authorjoydragon)
Lmao this is 90 years late but time to stir the pot!!
6. Has fandom ever made you enjoy a pairing you previously hated?
lol yeah Zutara. I didn’t hate Zutara at all the first time I watched the show, but I also wasn’t really thinking about the show through a shipping lens so I was all for kataang, but the I rewatched after I heard people talking about Zutara and I just fell in love
16. If you could change anything in the show, what would you change?
omg there is a lot lowkey, but nothing major. Mainly, I’d like to have seen more of an exploration and growth of secondary characters. I think we see Zuko, Katara, and Aang all grow immensely and as much as I love the other characters and the world building, I think some character’s fall flat. Especially Sokka. The meta in this fandom is INCREDIBLE and I would’ve loved to see Sokka’s trauma of losing a mother (and losing a father/potential for any male role models) explored more. Also more suki content pls
19. What is the one thing you hate most about your fandom?
Lol this one might ruffle some feather but people get SO worked up over nothing. Maybe it’s just because I’m old (saying that at 22 sounds fucked up) and I’m a SEASONED fandom-life veteran, but when I watch people fight on here about ships I get thrown back into my one direction days and I worry it is effecting people after they log off tumblr. like... just...
obviously if people are attacking you and using slurs (i fucking HATE how much i see name-calling and shit) then I want to see you defend yourself but sometimes fighting over ships is not worth it lol
