Wow, I haven't been here in a while.
Here's another College Days: Avatar Style if anyone's interested.
*a few days before fall break* *Azula, Ty Lee, Mai, and Katara are talking during lunch, eating a school meal*
Azula: *wincing* Uh, this food is worse than yesterday AND the day before.
Ty Lee: *licking lips* I've tasted things that are a lot more horrible than this; like Zuko's cooking...I will never forget that night.
Mai: What's wrong with his cooking?
Katara: Mai, you weren't there; it was just me, Ty Lee, Azula, and Zuko. Zuko said he would cook dinner for us, and what we got was some...um...I don't even know what it was.
Azula: It resembled a rotting corpse of a rabbit.
Ty Lee: Was it rabbit? It tasted like duck mixed with the rotted insides of a goat's stomach.
Mai: How would you know how that tastes??
Ty Lee: ...I wouldn't know! It just tasted that way!
Katara: Uh, right. Well, let's get off that subject. Um, oh! I know! How about we tell riddles! Okay, guys, here's one: A man is heading to St. Ives. On the way, he passes two women. Each woman is holding two sacks. Each sack has two cats. Each cat has two kittens. How many people are going to St. Ives?
*Mai and Ty Lee blink* *Azula snorts and rolls her eyes*
Azula: Well isn't it obvious? One of course!
Mai: One? Isn't it two?
Ty Lee: Um, isn't it like sixty-four or something?
Katara: No, actually you're right Azula.
Azula: *smiles* Of course. I'm the best there is at riddles.
Ty Lee: *puffs up* All right, then. Take on this one! What has roots as nobody sees, is taller than trees, up, up it goes, and yet never grows?
Azula: *smiles* Easy: A mountain.
Mai: All right, well, how about this one? Thirty white horses on a red hill, first they champ, then they stamp, then they stand still.
Azula: *smile grows wider* Teeth.
*Mai and Ty Lee's jaws drop*
Katara: Well, then here's this one! Voiceless it cries, wingless flutters, toothless bites, mouthless mutters!
Azula: Wind.
*all girls gape at Azula*
*Aang hears off in the distance* *Aang runs over*
Aang: Hey, are you guys telling riddles? Here's one! I cannot be seen, cannot be felt, cannot be heard, cannot be smelt. It lies behind stars and under hills, and empty holes it fills. It comes first and follows after, ends life, kills laughter.
Azula: Dark.
*Toph hears and runs over*
Toph: Here's one! A box without hinges, key, or lid, yet golden treasure inside is hid!
Azula: Eggs.
Mai: Oh, here's one! This thing all things devours Birds, beasts, trees, flowers; gnaws iron, bites steel; grinds hard stones to meal slays king, ruins town, and beats high mountain down.
Azula: Time.
*all gape* *Azula smiles*
Azula: I told you I'm a master at this. There is no riddle I can't solve.
Aang: *thoughtful, dreamy look* Here's one. What's the only time a man thinks of a candlelight dinner?
Azula:...what? Is that a riddle?
Ty Lee: *laughing* I know this one! The answer is: When the power goes out!
Toph: Oh, here's another one! What do men and women both have in common?
Azula:...?????
Katara: OH! OH! They both distrust men!
Mai: Here's one! What do men consider house cleaning?
Toph: Lifting their feet so you can vacuum under them!
Azula: I don't know these....
Katara: Oh, that's easy, Azula; you don't have a sense of humor!
Aang: *gets flushed* She does too!
Ty Lee: No she doesn't!
*Ty Lee throws food at Aang* *Aang throws food at Ty lee but misses and hits Azula* *Azula growls and throws food hitting Katara* *food fight starts* *entire cafeteria joins in*
...
*a few minutes later*
Aang: OOOOOHHH! OH! OH! OH! I KNOW ANOTHER RIDDLE!
Entire cafeteria: OH, SHUT UP!
...........................................................
Not one of my best in humor, but I thought it would be fun to do all of the riddles!
