Things/times/places prompts

Idea borrowed from munditia:

If you name a prompt and a female character from one of my fandoms (please see below), I'll try to write one-sentence-style comment fic for them.

Please put prompts in "character, prompt word, rating" format and indicate if you want only gen or anything goes.

Fandoms: Stargate: Atlantis, stargate_ren, Stargate SG-1, Star Trek: Enterprise, Star Trek: Reboot, Alias, Gilmore Girls, West Wing, Avatar: The Last Airbender, Buffy, Angel, Firefly, Supernatural, NCIS, Veronica Mars.

I should probably be good and not ask, but if you feel like writing Katara and Toph friendship (your icon in your last post on your LJ inspired me), that would be lovely.

(And if you're too busy, that's just fine too!)

It's not until they're actually in line to get in to the palace that Toph notices Katara's nervous.

She's not afraid. She's not angry, or anxious. This is a different sensation than Katara in those moods. She's actually nervous now.

It's kind of mind-boggling. Katara's a master waterbender already, she's traveled the world with the Avatar, fought battles and faced down the prince of the Fire Nation, and here she's nervous about sneaking into a fancy party.

She almost says something, because it's kind of funny. But it also makes Katara suddenly human, rather than the bossy older sister Toph never really wanted and sometimes could live without. And it reminds her Katara's really not that much older than her.

They're almost to the front of the line anyway, so Toph shrugs it off and fingers the token with her family's crest on it, and concentrates on the people around them, just in case the guards chuck them out of the line, or worse.
