"Tell me another story about your adventures, Momma!"
"Another one? Where to start..."
It wasn't long before the conversation went entirely off topic.
"And back then, Daddy had different hair," explained Katara.
The pale little girl looked at her mother in awe as she listened to stories of the past.
"I saw that!" She squeaked. "I saw it in a painting!"
The Waterbender smiled.
"And what did his hair look like?" She asked, smiling at her husband as he entered the room, unbeknownst to their daughter.
"Like a boarcupine!" Kya giggled.
Zuko raised his good eyebrow at Katara, mouthing the word, 'boarcupine' at her.
Katara stifled a laugh, continuing to talk to the child.
"What painting did you look at, sweetheart?" She asked.
Kya scrunched her eyebrows together as she thought.
"It was... It was in the big bedroom at Uncle Sokka's house!" She remembered triumphantly.
Zuko facepalmed, and Katara burst out in full on laughter.
"Was Aunt Suki Firebending in that painting?" She asked, lips still twitching stubbornly.
Kya nodded, dark hair bouncing.
"Go on and play with your brother and sister now, Kya," Katara grinned.
The girl obeyed, and the Fire Lady stood to greet... Well, to laugh at her husband.
"He still has that picture?" Zuko deadpanned. "And he hangs it on his bedroom wall?"
Katara laughed.
"I honestly had no idea. I can't believe he kept it!"
The Fire Lord reached up and tugged on a strand of his long, ebony hair.
"My hair's improved since then, right?"
His wife rolled her eyes.
"Zuko, your hair was one of the things that attracted me to you. It was gorgeous when we were kids."
His amber eyes grew wide, and a goofy grin swept over his light-toned skin.
"Really?"
Katara rolled her blue eyes once more, pecking him on the cheek.
"Yes, really. I guess I like boarcupines."
