Yes, I am telling you to stop fretting. I'm okay not being in a game, there are plenty of places for me to stretch out. Besides, I'm not in a hurry to feel awkward around my boyfriend when he's twelve years old again.

So you and Aang finally get together?

[savedtheworld]

Hey, I haven't been twelve for a long time!

[greatest_earthbender_ever]

[Have a Toph who totally isn't reveling in being taller at the moment.]

You, awkward around Twinkle-Toes? Now there's a change. [Because nothing Katara ever did was ever awkward. Ever.]

[watriarch]

Yue! [There’s a lot that she’s seen, but this is her first not!dead encounter.]

Yeah, after he saved the world. [Her smile is only slightly sheepish at the fond memory.]

[watriarch]

And that better not change.

[Teasing. A kiss on Aang’s cheek.] My mun finally came around to putting me here. Did I miss anything?

[watriarch]

[B-but- please hold. Her brain is trying to process Toph actually being older and taller.]

Ha. Ha. [She’s practically an adult, so she’ll try and roll with it.] You know what I mean.

[Especially since Toph’s probably experiencing a similar situation. Even right now.]

[abitofawildman]

How much of a hurry are you in to possibly be awkward around your older-than-you Adult Children?

...

I'm asking for a friend.

[watriarch]

[Her brain. just. shuts. down. Please hold.]

...........what?

[abitofawildman]

[He laughs. A lot. It's a big, deep, belly laugh that sounds a bit like her father, and a bit like Aang...if one squints.]

I'll put you down for a, Not much of one.

[watriarch]

[Oh, she’s definitely squinting.]

So I do have children, later? [Because right now they’re just going through the motions, not actually trying-

She’s just going to stand here with flushed cheeks.]

[abitofawildman]

You do. Though why you didn't stop at Perfection...

[He strikes a pose that could easily make him Sokka.]

...is no one's fault but your own.

[watriarch]

[Oh, she knows that pose all too well; she’s been subjected to it for years. Katara’s eyes slowly widen and she stares at the older man.]

You? [Now she did have a vision of her and Aang having a baby.

Buuut that was a baby. This is a fully grown man. To those that don’t know him.]

[abitofawildman]

[He appears to deflate, but...dramatically.]

You don't have to look so surprised.

[watriarch]

[She can’t help but be surprised. It’s not every day you see your future child as a man when you’re seventeen. But the staring lets her see the bits of Hakoda and Sokka in him, and maybe just a pinch of herself.

Unable to stop herself, Katara beams and throws her arms around him. A family with Aang is what she’s been wanting and a part of it is right here before her. Even if she doesn’t know his name right now.]

[abitofawildman]

[There's a lot to be seen there, resemblance wise. Especially around the eyes, which are far too grey to be strictly Water Tribe. And his ears? Well...let's just say that there's a reason that Bumi keeps his hair on the longish side, in spite of the many Air Nomad cowlicks.

The hug takes him a little by surprise. There's seeing your mother at seventeen, and then there's having her dive in to hug you. Quickly though, he wraps his arms around her and sweeps her up off her feet in a polar beardog hug.]

Hi Mom.

[There's even a smooch on her cheek for good measure.]

[savedtheworld]

They won't unless someone agebends me!

[Oh, as always, a blush.]

I'm not sure, sweetie. Things are happening all the time, so I don't know what I'd start with!
