Do you have kid!Kya headcannons?

Here are some head canons that live in my head. 

When Kya started showing signs of her waterbending Katara was so happy to carry on her legacy. 

When Kya started waterbending and her dad, Aang, also water bent Kya thought she could also airbend so she could be just like her dad. Aang had to explain to her that he was the Avatar and she unfortunately couldn’t airbend. 2-3 year old Kya was disappointed because she thought she could carry on her dad’s legacy. 

Kya’s flower child traits were shown once she was able to walk on her own. Katara would find her in the gardens laying near the flowers and watch the clouds. 

Kya saw Aunt Toph always barefoot and so she would always takes her shoes off and walk around the temple. Katara and her would always argue in the morning when she would dress Kya. “But the earth feels so night under my toes, mommy!” Young Kya would argue to which Aang and Toph would be like “what’s the harm, Sugarqueen? Sugarprincess will be fine”.

Kya in her infancy would always be barefoot. 

Kya and Bumi would make flower crowns for each other. 

Alrighty, here you go folks. We got the how we started to how we ended. 7 hours and hand is gonna hate me later.

hmmm let’s see

When Kya was born everyone told Katara how beautiful she is. Sokka looked at Kya and told his sister how squishy she looked. Which was Sokka’s version for beautiful. “Squishy” became Kya’s nickname from her Uncle Sokka. 

Kya sometimes gives her family and friends reasons to worry when her fearless side comes out. Her curiosity gets the best of her and makes for a lot of quick decisions. She seeks the thrills of life and want to experience that feeling of being on top of the world constantly. Which started When Kya tumbled on top of the slick rocks at the shore of ATI. Katara and Aang were scared to see small 4-5 y/o giggling barefoot Kya standing on the slick rocks. 

While Bumi has the skill in playing the flute. Kya learned to play the pipa. Uncle Iroh taught Kya how to play and she continues to play to stay connected with her uncle. 

Idk how much more I have left, but *cracks knuckles* here I go....

Kya sees what others miss. Everyone sees the exterior or first layer of the image or scene in from of them. Kya sees what’s hidden. She looks past what most might see and find the deeper meaning. Her heart is loving for others. She sees the world with hopeful eyes. Hence how Kya was able to notice Jinora and her sight for spirits.

Even though Kya is a loving and free spirited “hippie” she isn’t afraid to be challenged or tested by others. She loves challenges and views them as a way to learn and grow especially with her healing. She’s wise enough to recognize when someone is testing her.

With her healing she has a strong desire to make the world a better place by providing medical service to those small village who don’t have healthcare. She builds clinics and works with Asami and Bataar Sr in bringing the train tracks close to the villages.

Kya is a daddy’s girl and had Aang wrapped around her little finger. Once Tenzin was born and he showed air bending was when Kya started to develop signs of jealousy. She would bully Tenzin growing up.
