DRABBLE: Flying 1/1 (Jeong Jeong/Piandao)

Title: Flying
Fandom: Avatar: The Last Airbender
Pairing: Jeong Jeong/Piandao
Rating: General
Word Count: 100
Summary: Jeong Jeong and Piandao spar.
Content Info: n/a

They spar hand to hand, neither blade nor bending allowed. It's more dance than battle, each dodging before any blow can land. Piandao leads, gracefully whirling through the steps until Jeong Jeong ducks and shifts his stance, taking the offensive. He charges at Piandao with a flying kick, only to be blocked. For a split-instant, he braces himself to be dropped hard, but Piandao does not break his balance; he boosts him instead, and Jeong Jeong is sent soaring over his head, flying without the aid of fire.

Free.

He lands lightly with an unreserved grin. Then they begin again.

Very poetic and I can picture it happening.

Thank you very much. :-)

I am so glad you're still writing A:tLA fic. This is beautiful!

Seeing Jeong-Jeong sit on his little fire scooter during the takeover of Ba Sing Se made me wish we'd seen more of him during the series. He's obviously capable of significant awesome, but all we got before was this bitter grumpface bartending in the dark sitting in a corner.

I'm in a sort of multifannish stage at the moment, but I do want to keep writing in A:tLA. :-)

I also have a thing for grouches, so I've been wanting to write Jeong Jeong for some time, and after finding out the creators' unofficial backstory for Piandao, it sounds like the two of them would overlap nicely.
