"Toph, where are you going?"
"I can't do this." She turned as if to continue storming out, instinctively, he grabbed her arm. For a moment both froze, acutely aware of the point of contact between their two bodies. Her cheeks flushed as his breath hitched in his throat. And then he let go, quickly, as though burned.
"What is it that you can't do exactly? I've never seen you back away from anything." He spoke harshly, mockingly.
"This, Zuko." She gestured angrily at the party behind them, at her richly embroidered dress. "This is exactly the life I ran away from."
They stood quietly for a moment. Him taking in the glossy darkness of her hair, the glow of her skin against the delicate fabric, her muddy toes peeking out beneath the hem of her gown, and her hearing each breath, each heartbeat of his in the silence.
And she turned away. And he let her go.

The colored version! I actually made a background (complete with screencap from avatarspirit.net)! I'm pretty proud of this and I hope you all like. I put a red color-cast over the whole thing to make it meld together better, but it messed with some of the details on Toph's dress, so I may upload a backgroundless version or something.
