oh god what am I doing?

[ex_allthestories877]

Really? You're a writer? So you'll tell me stories now that I'm here?

...you won't let Ikki interrupt, will you?

It seems you are already getting along wonderfully with your mun.

[ex_allthestories877]

[GASP!

This is a real life story in the flesh! Jinora just loooooooves hearing about you! ...did you say something about a mun? Forget that, she's fangirling you.]

You're the princess that became the moon spirit!

[moonpowers]

[ Oh dear! It seems she found quite an... excitable young one!

She smiles and bends down so she's at eye level with Jinora.]

I wonder how a young girl knows of such an old story.

[ex_allthestories877]

[Hah. You think this one's excitable, you should meet her little sister.]

I read all about it.

[And it's on her list to ask Gran-Gran about too.]

Air Bender Island is in the bay named for you. That's where I live.

[moonpowers]

I... o-oh? [ Her cheeks tint a little with color. A bay named after her? She hardly thinks she deserves it. ]

It seems I have much to catch up with.

[ex_allthestories877]

[Jinora clasps her hands together, leaning forward, with a pleading look on her face.]

Will you tell me everything?

[moonpowers]

[ How can she possibly say no to that face? It was far too cute for anyone to handle! ]

I see no harm in answering your questions.

[markofthewise]

Don't side with your mun!

[spiritblocked]

Does your mun write anything interesting?

[savedtheworld]

That sounds great! I love stories!

[smackdownsoup]

I think the point of this place is to make your own stories.

[markofthebrave]

Sometimes that's not up to your mun, you know.

[ex_allthestories877]

But why?

[ex_allthestories877]

Oh yes! She writes informational articles and essays. She also wrote an amazing story about a pair of star-crossed lovers who were fated to die in each others arms. It's sooooooo romantic!

[Jinora is in fact exaggerating both the romance and the skill of the mun's work. Bitty bookworm just likes to read.]

[ex_allthestories877]

[GASP. JOY!!]

Grandpa Aang!

I love stories too. My favorite ones are about you.

[ex_allthestories877]

[Wait a minute. That voice is familiar.

...

!!]

You're the probending announcer! Do you make your own stories?

[ex_allthestories877]

Gran-gran!

[...wait a second.]

You look very different, Gran-gran.

[savedtheworld]

[His face becomes bright in a different way when he realizes this must be one of those descendants he heard about. This truly is a magical place.]

Really? I didn't know I was that interesting.

[ex_allthestories877]

[Are you kidding? She's read every book about you that she can get her hands on. Well, every book she can get her hands on, but that's quibbling over details.

She inches closer, eyes shining, hands clasped together.]

Will you tell me all about your adventures?

[ex_allthestories877]

Were you ever in love? Are you sorry you became the moon? It's very courageous and romantic!

[savedtheworld]

[He smiles. This close, he can pick out little features that remind him of himself or Katara. It feels a little weird to be seeing this while he's so relatively young, but it also gives him that feeling of warmth he's come to associate with family.]

I'll gladly tell you about any of my wacky adventures. Where would you like to start?

[ex_allthestories877]

[She's about to get closer, glomping onto Aang's arm like she does with her father. He's family so it's allowed!]

Start with when Gran-gran found you in the iceberg.

[moonpowers]

[ It was... a bit embarrassing to be idolized so much. She wasn't used to this treatment. She gave Jinora a smile and nodded her head. ]

I was once in love, yes. This brave warrior... of the southern Water tribe caught my eye at first glance. He was smart, funny, and he made me feel [ like a normal person? happier then I ever have? ] ...happy. I was... quite a handful for him, but he still treated like a gentleman

[ She shook her head and glanced away. She was certain he had found someone special, and of course she would be happy for him too, but her feelings were still there. Oh, but wait! The young one asked something else as well. It would be rude to leave her with that. She looked back to Jinora and gave her another smile.]

I could never be sorry for the choice I made. I chose to give my life to save my family... my people. It was for their safety and happiness. As the princess, it was my duty and honor to do what I could. It was thanks to the original spirit that I was able to live.

[savedtheworld]

[She isn't that much younger than him, but he still feels that familial warmth.]

That's a really good one. I had been in an iceberg for a whole hundred years! But the world needed the Avatar. And all it took was Katara getting mad at her brother to break through that ice. I woke up, and the first thing I saw was her face. It felt like I was in a trance. And even though it was the first thing I saw in this new world, I already knew that it was the best.

[ex_allthestories877]

[Blink. Blinkblink.]

Gran-gran got mad?

[What craziness is this? Gran-gran never gets mad. Then again, Jinora doesn't get to see her very often.]
