Pairing: Kyalin

Prompt by: YOLO1882

Lin sat in front of her bathroom mirror, with scissors in hand trying to figure out how to cut her hair. "What are you doing?"

The metalbender looked at her girlfriend through the reflection on the mirror. "Trimming my hair. It's getting too long and might get caught in the cable mechanism. I'd rather have a hair cut than have my skull ripped off while trying to save a little kid."

"Well, instead of risking cutting it uneven, why don't you let me cut it for you?"

"I guess that will be okay. Just not too short."

Lin handed the scissors to Kya and sat patiently for the cutting to begin. The waterbender wetted the pitch-black hair and combed it out before sizing it up. Lin let out a soft moan as nails ran across her scalp, relaxing her. "You okay Captain?"

"I'm fine. It's just, nice. I've actually never had my hair cut by anyone other than your mother. I just needed to get it done."

"Mm. I never realised how soft it is and shiny."

"Thanks, I guess."

Kya began cutting her girlfriend's hair slowly, making sure to keep it even while getting rid of any split ends. Once she was done, she ruffled Lin's hair to rid it of any trimmings, before drying it with her bending. "There we go."

The metalbender looked herself in the mirror and reached up to feel the length. "You did a good job. You should cut it more often."

Kya bent over, resting her arms over Lin's shoulders and resting her chin on top of her head. "I can do that for you. I actually enjoy cutting it. It feels nice to do these little things for each other. Makes me feel normal, peaceful."

"I agree. I could cut your hair for you if you would like?"

Kya quickly stepped back, and held her long, brown, ponytail in her hands. "I am not letting you anywhere near it with anything sharp."

"Oh come on Kya, it will be quick and painless. Don't you trust me?"

"I trust you to save my life and be there for me when I fall. I don't trust you with my hair or anything feminine for that matter."

An evil smirk crossed Lin's face as she took the scissors into her hands and stared at her girlfriend. "You better run."

"Mum said never run with scissors!" Kya took off in the opposite direction, with a scissorless Lin right behind her.
