Prompt by: Hikari08


Lin smiled as she felt something warm and soft press itself onto her neck, again and again. "Mm, what are you doing up so early."

"Kissing the most amazing woman in the world." Lin let out a sigh of contempt as Kya continued her actions downward, only to be disrupted by a gust of air blasting their door open, soon followed by a flash of yellow and red dumping something on their bed. The two women sat up to find four children sitting on their bed completely confused. They looked to the man standing next to their bed gasping for air. "Tenzin? What are you-"

"Pema, reservations, hotel, see you, tomorrow." And with that he jumped out of their open window.

"Tenzin!"

"DOORS ARE FOR PEOPLE WITH NO IMAGINATION!"

Lin looked at the children and then collapsed onto her back. "It's too early for this. I'm going to kill him."

"Auntie Lin, we're hungry. Can you make us something?"

"I'm really going to kill him."


Lin placed a bowl of porridge in front of each child sitting on a bar stool and opened the newspaper, began reading.

"Uh, Auntie Lin?"

Lin lazily turned the page. "Yes Jinora?"

"You need to feed Rohan. He's only two years old. He has no coordination."

Lin groaned but knew she couldn't let the poor kid starve. Picking up his spoon, she held some food to his lips, only for him to turn his head away. "I don't have to feed you." Yes you do. Remember that little thing you protect? What was it called again? The law?

"You have to make a game out of it. Try saying 'here comes the Badgermole.'"

Lin glared as she spoke to the toddler. "Here comes the Badgermole." The young boy began to whimper as he looked at her scarred face. "What did I do!?"

"Lin, honey, are you scaring my nephew?"

"I'm trying to feed him!"

"Then why does it look like he is about to cry?"

"How am I meant to know?!"

Kya walked behind Lin and wrapped her arms around her strong torso, peeking over a strong shoulder at her nieces and nephews. "Was auntie Lin being mean again?" This caused the children to laugh.

Lin shrugged Kya off. "Can you please feed Rohan while I make us some tea."

"Sure."

"Aunt Kya, we've finished our breakfasts, so can we go outside?"

"You may Ikki." Three of the four children ran off outside, leaving Rohan to finish his meal and Lin to clean up after them. "I can feel your anger from here. Are you okay?"

Lin dumped the dishes into the sink and turned on the water. "Oh no, I'm just dandy. It's not like I wanted to spend the day in bed with my girlfriend, instead of looking after my ex's kids."

"Lin, relax. It's good for you to spend time around the kids. They're your nieces and nephews too. And weather you like it or not, they aren't going anywhere anytime soon."

"Hmph."

"Rohan is done so why don't you take him outside." Lin hesitated. "You need to pick him up sometime."

"Uh." Lin walked up to the small boy as he watched her curiously. She eventually picked him up under the arms and held him outstretched.

Kya shook her head in amusement before coming to her partner's rescue. She pushed Rohan closer into Lin's grasp, causing her to put an arm under Rohan's bottom to keep him upright as he sat on her hip. "There you go. Isn't that more comfortable?"

"I hate you."

"I love you too. I'll met you outside with our cups of tea in a minute."

When Kya came outside, she found the kids playing hide and seek and Lin sitting cross legged as she watched. "Whose it?"

"Jinora." After a few rounds of hide and seek, the children got bored. "Why don't you kids see if you can find a board game."

"Okay!"

"They're in the bottom of my closet." Jinora, Meelo and Rohan ran off into the house, leaving Jinora to look at the ground with a blush on her face. "Are you not going to help them Jinora?"

"I actually wanted to ask you two a question."

"Oh? Well, go ahead."

"I understand how sex works between a man and a woman but how does it work between two women?"

Lin choked on her tea, not believing what she had heard. "What?! Why would you ask us that!?"

"Well, you are two women who are together. And I'm assuming you have sex given your aggressive nature and Aunt Kya's handsy nature."

Kya put a calming hand on Lin's back, indicating she had the solution so they didn't have to answer the question. "I think that is a question for your parents."

"I already asked them and they have no idea. Dad told me to ask you both."

"Well you won't be getting an answer from me."

"I'll tell you." Lin grinned and patted the spot next to her, indicating Jinora to take a seat. "You see, it works a lot like sex between a man and a woman… only it is much more enjoyable because we're dealing with a body like our own –"


"Ikki, have you found the board games yet?"

"Not yet, stand still." Ikki was currently standing on her brother's shoulders so she could reach the top shelf of the closet, only to find nothing. "There are no games up here." She jumped off her brother's shoulders. "Aunt Kya said there we're games in the closet."

Meelo looked around the room, smiling when his eyes landed on something of interest. "What about that?"

Ikki walked over to a small cabinet and open the door to reveal Lin's glistening armour. "Cool! Help me get it on." They pulled the heavy armour out of it's home and folded it over Ikki's torso. It instantly locked into place. "Check it out! I'm a metal bending cop!" She struck a pose she had seen Lin form many times.

"Ikki, you forgot the boots and arm guards."

Rohan sat on the ground and watched as his siblings put on the boots and arm guards, which were evidently too big for the small girl. Two resounding clicks indicated that the arm guards were locked in place. "Do I look like a cop now?"

"It's a bit big."

Ikki ran around the room a couple of times as she enjoyed the feeling of the weight the steel provided, before collapsing onto her back. "Meelo, this is really heavy. Help me take it off."

Meelo tried to pull the boots off but gave up when they wouldn't budge. He tried the arms and received the same result. "I can't. Try sitting up."

Ikki grunted as she tried to sit up. "It's too heavy! Oh no. What if I can't get out?" Ikki began to breath heavily and sweat profusely. A tight space is not where an airbender belonged, much less being weighed down.


"-And that is how sex between two women works." She smiled at the look on Jinora's face, one of fear and disgust.

"You willingly do that?"

"Yes. A lot of women do."

Jinora shuddered as she looked at both her aunts. She was about to speak when a scream from inside reached them. The two women were on their feet in an instant and running up their stairs to their bedroom. They found Ikki lying on the ground hyperventilating in Lin's armour, with Rohan crying in the corner and Meelo desperately trying to free his sister. Kya took a position at Ikki's side and held her head in her hands. "Ikki, calm down. Lin, hurry up!"

"It's harder than it looks." Lin flexed her hands at the boots, both splitting in half and releasing Ikki's legs. She grabbed an arm guard, twisted until it clicked and pulled, doing the same to the other arm. "Move Kya." Lin pushed Ikki up into a sitting position and wrapped an arm around her waist. "Ikki, I need you to stop trying to fight me. Breath. In and out. That's it. Good girl." Lin grabbed the hem of the armour and slowly pulled upwards until it split in half, up and over the young girls head.

She was about to put the metal pieces to the side, when she felt trembling arms wrap around her neck, followed by tears. Lin wrapped a strong arm around the young girl. "It's okay. You're safe." Lin sat back against her bed as Ikki continued to cry into her chest. She was so absorbed in comforting the young girl she didn't notice Kya pick up a crying Rohan and the other children walking out of the room.

Lin looked down at the young girl in her arms, when she heard faint breathing. Ikki's eyes were closed, now asleep. Lin stood up with Ikki in her arms and placed her on her bed. She collected her armour and put it back in its rightful place before going downstairs where lunch awaited her.

She plopped down in her seat at the head of the table with a sigh as everyone watched her. Kya placed a sandwich in front of her. "Is Ikki okay?"

"She's fine. She's asleep on our bed." Lin nibbled on her sandwich while everyone finished within a few seconds. Kya stayed behind as the children ran outside to play. She placed a hand over Lin's, causing the metalbender to look up at her.

"What are you thinking about?"

"Hmm? I was just thinking of security for the armour. Many of my officers have children. What if they get themselves in the same position?"

"Lin, I think your officers are smart enough to tell their children not to wear the armour. We don't have children, so it never crossed our mind. Try not to worry too much." She offered her partner a smile to which she returned. She was about to kiss her when a small voice interrupted them.

"Auntie Lin?"

"Yes Ikki?"

The young girl walked over to them, rubbing her neck nervously. "I just wanted to apologise for taking your uniform. I shouldn't have touched it. I'm sorry."

"It's okay."

"Can I have a hug?" Lin reluctantly hugged the girl.

"Go play outside with your siblings. We'll be out there in a minute." She waited for Ikki to leave the house before standing up quickly and pulling Kya into an embrace, kissing her furiously. They broke the kiss when their lungs demanded they do so. "Wow, what was that for?"

"I didn't get to kiss you this morning, I'm making up for it."


It was ten at night and the children were asleep soundly. Which meant the adults could come out and play. Lin moaned as Kya slipped her tongue into her mouth. She placed her hands on Kya's hips, squeezing lightly, only to have her hands placed beside to her. Kya looked down at her playfully. "No hands."

Lin resisted the urge to roll her eyes as Kya began to move south, head disappearing under the covers. Her breath hitched as she felt Kya snap her waistband. She smiled in anticipation only to have it crushed by the door opening. "Auntie Lin? Where's aunt Kya?"

Kya reappeared next to Lin, looking around her room as though she had been caught doing something wrong. "Jinora? What are you doing here?"

She stepped out of the way to reveal Ikki standing behind her. "I can't sleep after auntie Lin went into detail about… that. And Ikki can't sleep because she had a bad dream. Can we sleep in here?"

Kya wordlessly pulled back the blankets. Making room for the two girls to lie between them. Ikki instantly clung to Lin's side, causing her to freeze. "Thanks auntie Lin."

"Go to sleep Ikki."

As they slept, Lin's arm found its way around Ikki, pulling her close.
