Prompt by: guest

Kya sat at her mother's kitchen bench, slowly chewing on a carrot stick as she stared off into the distance, completely out of it, until her mother stood up from the cupboard and slammed her cooking book on the bench. "Now, I was thinking about making sea prunes for dinner, what do you think?"

"You do know Toph, Su and Lin don't like sea prunes, right. Not even dad can pretend to like them."

"That's the point dear."

Lin cocked her head at her mother's statement. "Why?"

"I use it as a punishment without saying anything. Toph and I got into an argument last week and this is my way of getting satisfaction. And your father was late to our anniversary dinner a couple days ago. The way I see it, two birds with one stone. Su and Lin will just have to be casualties in this... that is unless you and Lin are having problems. You still haven't told me why you're here."

Kya let out a sigh as she reached for another carrot stick. "Unless you have something in that cupboard that can make Lin loosen up, I doubt it."

"Care to explain?" Katara began to pull out the ingredients from the ice box as she listened to her daughter.

"She refuses to show any affection she has for me, outside the apartment. The closest I got from her was when we went to a tavern for drinks and a guy hit on me. She threatened him to back down and then took my hand to lead me outside."

"What about in front of Toph and Su?"

"Nothing. I went to hold her hand on the dinner table and she quickly reached for her cup. I felt so insulted."

"Does she show any affection when you are at home?"

"Yeah. She makes me tea, draws these romantic baths we share together at least once a month, gives me massages, carries me to bed when I fall asleep on the couch and she comforts me when I have a bad day at the hospital." A blush crossed the young waterbender's face. "And she is really generous in bed."

"Have you talked to her about this?"

"I have she said she would try to make an effort, which she did. We went for a walk in the park and held hands. But she was just so tense. I just want people to know she loves me. Mainly you guys to give some sort of assurance that Lin and I are in a loving relationship."

"I see." Katara reached into the cupboard above her head and pulled out a brown paper bag. "These will help her relax. It will bring out her true emotions. She'll be like a drunk two year old. They can't lie to save themselves."

"What are they?" Katara opened the bag for Kya to peer inside and she immediately started laughing. "Let's do it."

Toph and Aang sat at the dinner table, breathing through their mouths to avoid the smell of the sea prunes from hitting their noses. "What did you do twinkle toes?" Toph muttered under her breath.

"I may have forgotten our anniversary." He whispered back. "You?"

"Didn't let her have the last word in an argument."

"Those sea prunes aren't going to eat themselves you know."

The two adults suppressed a groan as they put another prune in their mouths. The quiet nature of the meal was broken by Lin, who slammed her fist down on the table, opened her mouth and declared "Sea prunes are amazing! Did you know they share the same qualities as Tenzin? They both smell bad, they both don't have hair, they are both boring and they are both disgusting."

Everyone at the table, excluding an insulted airbender, looked at the officer in shock. Not sure whether they should laugh or ask if she was okay. "Umm, honey-"

"Kya! Oh lovely sweet Kya. You are nothing like a sea prune. For one thing, you can satisfy me in bed. Mum, you were right about people from the Water Tribes. They really are good at kissing."

"Huh, dinner and a show. Magic mushrooms or cactus juice?"

"I may have put a magic mushroom in one of her prunes."

"Kya, I like the way you think." Toph pushed her plate to the side and propped her feet up on the table. Seeing that the mother of this now free child wasn't in any rush to stop her daughter, everyone sat back and relaxed to see this unfold, although Tenzin left after being insulted for a third time.

"Aunt Katara. For the past year I wanted to apologise for this, I was the one who ate your prized Lettuce. Bumi dared me and even though I was nineteen I agreed to it. You don't have to worry about punishing me though. It apparently had parasites, which resulted in Kya having to look after me while I puked my guts out. Uncle Aang, I was the one that broke the earthen pillar to the gazebo resulting in it collapsing, but," the earthbender sat down and wrapped an arm around her girlfriend's shoulder, pulling her closer to her body, "I had help. It happened during our first kiss. I got over excited as it was getting heated. I needed something sturdy to prop your daughter up against so I could get better access," she leaned over to her sister, who was in stitches beside her, and nudged her in the side with an elbow, "if you know what I mean. And then the thing collapsed. You should have used a stronger material.

"Su! My dear little sister, it was I who killed your pet cat two years ago." Su stopped laughing, worried of what her murderous sister had done to her beloved cat who had supposedly ran away. "I was practicing with my cables in the backyard when I accidentally scared it out of the tree I was using as a sparring partner. Lets just say, it never saw the cable coming."

"Where, where did you bury Fluffy?" It was a question the young girl feared the answer to.

"Remember last week when I came over to spar and that slab of earth you threw at me landed in the bay?"

"No."

"Yep. That cat could fly. And you! Mother."

Toph sat up in anticipation. She was truly Excited for what her clearly drugged up daughter was about to admit. "Alright kid, what did you do?"

"Jack shit. Because I was always too scared to do what I always wanted to do."

"Which is?"

"This."

Toph braced herself as Lin quickly stood up and surprisingly wrapped her in a hug. "I love you mum. I really do. You are the best mother I could have ever asked for, even if you did cripple me emotionally."

She remained hugging her bewildered mother, hoping to get an 'I love you' back, but it never came.

"What about me?"

Lin removed herself from her mother to look at the man who had been like a father to her. "I preferred the wolf tail. Sorry."

She reclaimed her position next to Kya, and took her hands into her own. "Kya, I know I don't show public displays of affection like you want, so while I'm drugged up, by who I'm suspecting is by you or your mum, I just wanted to say and I hope I remember this come morning, I love you. I truly do. I love everything about you even your terrible singing in the shower and I have always wanted to do this." Lin let her face fall between her girlfriend's breasts and motorboated her before passing out.

Lin had her face buried in a pillow as she woke to a cold press being placed on the back of her neck. She turned her head to see her mother sitting on the edge of her bed. "Mum?"

"Morning badgermole. Sleep well?"

"I'd say yes if I knew how I got to bed... in my old room. What happened?"

"Well other than admitting you ate Katara's lettuce that she couldn't shut up about, destroying Aang's gazebo, killing that feral cat I allowed Su to have after months of begging, seriously I can't say thank you enough for that, calling Tenzin ugly and making fun of what he's like in bed, and telling Sokka you aren't a fan of his little hair knot thingy, not much."

There was one key thing that was missing from Toph's summary, and the most likely reason behind why she was not in her apartment. "Spirits, Kya? What did I say to Kya?"

"You expressed your love for her, and then preceded to motorboat her. Safe to say she doesn't want any public displays of affection any time soon. She isn't angry with you though. She's more amused than anything in my opinion."

"Then why am I here?"

"You're here because after you passed out, you woke up and went outside where you began to strip. Kya suggested that we let you enjoy yourself, claiming, and I quote 'she has a great body with a smackable ass that anyone would be lucky to see.' But I didn't want to arrest my daughter for public indecency and I'm the only one who has experience with people under the influence, so I bought you back here."

"Thanks I guess."

"No problem though I think I deserve a bit more than that. You threw up a lot." Toph brushed the hair off of Lin's sweaty forehead and gave her, her trademark smirk. "Thanks for the fun badgermole."

"You're welcome I guess."

Toph stood up and walked to the open doorway. "Oh, one last thing, I love you too Lin. I really do and sorry for crippling you emotionally."

Lin allowed herself to smile at finally getting what she wanted for the past twenty years, though it quickly disappeared when Su came to stand in her doorway with a scowl on her face. "He-ey Su."

"I hate you." With that little tid bit the teen walked off.

"Fuck."
