A/N: It's here! Merry Christmas: )
On the Twelfth Day of Christmas…
My fangirl gave to me…
Twelve minutes of peace!
Eleven shippers shipping,
Ten OCs a-leaping,
Nine alternate chapters,
Eight vids a-playing,
Seven 'Sues a swooning,
Six fans a-foaming,
Five… kissing scenes!
Four conquered nations,
Three bending powers,
Two new ships,
And a fan-fiction about me.
Mary's eyes glowed as she opened her sisters' combined gift—DVDs of Avatar and PJs! She squealed at the items, unfolding the blue pajamas carefully in sheer anticipation.
"Sokka was all they had," Christine said. Sure enough, the pajama shirt was a comfy tee with Sokka on it and the bottoms were covered with little boomerangs.
"I love them!" Mary told her sisters, gathering them into a hug.
---Later---
"Hey Mary—you finishing up your Zuko fan-fiction?" Emily asked, plopping down onto the bean bag chair by the door.
"I think I'm about done with being a Zuko fangirl," Mary said, turning away from her computer. Emily stared, slightly bug-eyed for a breath, then called for Christine. The other twin came.
"Mary says she's done being a Zuko fangirl…" Emily said in awe.
"Okay…" Christine said. "You sure?" Mary nodded happily.
"I made the decision roughly twelve minutes ago. I'm happy with it. It's my New Year's Resolution."
"It's quiet… Too quiet…" Zuko muttered to himself as he crept through the barren halls of his palace.
"Sir?" the servant asked, nearly making Zuko jump out of his skin. "You're needed." Zuko cautiously followed the Servant.
The Servant led him to an oratory balcony. Ma-Ree Su stood off to one side, dressed in blue and carrying a suitcase. Below the balcony was an enormous crowd—citizens, visitors, wounded shippers, fans, authors, and assorted others.
"Well, Zuko, my author has decided to become a Sokka fangirl. We're through. Merry Christmas, Fire Lord," Ma-Ree Su said, extending a hand for him to shake. Zuko smiled the largest smile of his life and shook her hand heartily. The crowd erupted into cheers.
"I'm FREE!" Zuko told the crowds as he felt the author's new bending powers bleeding off. The crowd cheered again and began singing Christmas carols.
