Here are two more drabbles, a bit longer than the others. It seems I can't help but not write them a bit longer than I had originally hoped. I still love writing these short drabbles, but there was going to be another, but it actually is longer than these two combined, so i decided to just put it by itself once it's finished. Hopefully that will be soon.

Thank you to everyone who reviews, since i probably dont say it much. Thank you thank you thank you. There. I said it three times, no. Four now. Well, yeah. I'm actually putting off writing an essay that's due tomorrow, at least the rough draft...I'll shut up now so you can read they actually story if you havent yet and i am talking to myself...yeah.

These two are first, for Aang and Kya, and second, for Aang and Tenzin. I'll eventually get Katara in here somewhere. I think i am subconciously avoiding her, which is weird because she is my favorite character.


Zoo

"What's that one called?" Kya shouted from on top of her father's shoulders, pointing at one of the animals.

"A platypusbear," he replied up to her, eyes following her finger to the large platypus bear that was wading through a pond in its enclosure.

Kya wrinkled her nose and pointed again, "What's that one?"

"An elephant mandrill."

"It stinks," she put her hands over her nose. "So do those!" she pointed to the next enclosure they walked passed, where a few bull antelope were grazing.

Aang laughed and kept walking until they were next to another of the enclosures, where he looked down, Kya following his gaze.

"That is a tigerdillo," he said before she could ask.

Kya leaned closer to try to get a better look into the enclosure, where the creature was licking a paw, and smiled, "It's really cute." It roared and she clung a bit more tightly to her father. "Never mind," she whispered in a small voice. He chuckled at her response.

She hummed as she looked around again, able to see over the heads of people who were in her way from her vantage point.

Aang watched the tigerdillo curiously, until Kya jumped off his shoulders. He looked around for her, but she had already disappeared into the crowd.

He took a deep breath and closed his eyes before sensing the familiar footsteps of his daughter slow to a stop not a long ways off. He was already walking before he had even opened his eyes again, focusing on those tiny footsteps and avoiding everyone who seemed to stop and stare when they realized the Avatar was at the zoo.

Kya was gripping the bars above the enclosure and bouncing up and down as she looked down to where a few creatures hopped around in a prairie-like setting, a couple eating cabbages, nibbling on grass, or sniffing the air, their faces turning every which way looking for danger.

When her father caught up to her, he sighed, "Kya, you really shouldn't run off like that."

Kya looked up at him with sparkling blue eyes and he instantly forgave her for running off. "Look daddy! They're so cute!"

"They're called rabbaroos," he smiled as one looked up at the two of them.

Kya grinned. "They have big ears like you Daddy!" she laughed, and he pouted, but she just pointed at the rabbaroos, "They're so adorable! These are my favorite!"

Aang knelt down next to her and smiled, "They're one of my favorites too." Kya grinned back at him.


Hiding (read Flyer first)

"What are you doing up here?" Tenzin heard the glider snap shut and he opened his eyes to see his father looking at him curiously, standing carefully while Tenzin sat calmly, glider in his lap.

"Hiding," he replied evenly. His father blinked down at him before sitting next to him and looking over the city.

"I wouldn't call this an ideal hiding place."

"Yes, but it's the only place Bumi can't bother me," the fourteen year old shrugged. "Besides, it's a good place to think about things and view is pretty nice."

Aang shrugged in agreement and laughed a little, "So, my big head is a good place to think about things?" Tenzin laughed. "Maybe I should try it sometime, though it does seem a little uncomfortable," he said, pushing himself back away from the slope of his statue's forehead. "How often do you come up here?"

Tenzin shrugged, "Not often. Only when I need to think without any distractions."

"Well, I can leave if you want me to," Aang shrugged, moving to stand, but Tenzin shook his head.

"You don't have to. Sometimes having company is just as good as being alone."

Aang smiled, returning to his spot, "I know what you mean. So what are you thinking about?"

Tenzin shrugged again, pulling his knees up to his chest and resting his chin on them, "I don't know. I guess it's a little bit of everything. I just feel like I don't know what I want to do anymore."

Aang nodded and looked at him sadly, "You aren't the only one."

Tenzin closed his eyes and sighed deeply, "I know. Maybe you should talk to him."

Aang nodded again, "I will. When he's ready."

"Will he ever be?"

"I don't know. Would you be?"

Tenzin blinked, "I don't know. Probably not. That's why I come up here to think. I guess it's one of the things that are bothering me."

Aang half smiled, but it was forced, "I thought you said this was the only place your brother couldn't bother you."

Tenzin rolled his eyes, "Father, Bumi can bother me anywhere. I just meant he has yet to actually get up here to bother me."

Aang nodded and stood, "I hope you figure things out, but I have to go into the city for a while. I heard you were up here and was just curious as to why."

Tenzin gave a small smile in return, "I hope I will too. I'll see you at home."

Aang clicked his glider open, "See you at home. And Tenzin," Aang actually did smile as his son looked up, "Maybe this isn't the best place if you're trying to hide. Bumi's the one who told me where you were, and he was asking if I could help him get up here."

Tenzin sighed in exasperation, but returned to his meditative stance once his father was gone. It was only a matter of time before this place wouldn't be enough.


Since i already had a couple questions about it, in that last one Aang and Tenzin are talking about Bumi. They are talking about him because he's questioning what he wants to do, and i tend to forget people dont think like me, so sorry for any confusion, but i just wanted to clear that up. Reading Flyer, in the chapter before, helps a bit. They kind of run on each other. Sorry again
