the original beifong

Summers at Ember Island were a royal family favorite. With its relaxing ocean waves, soft-sanded beaches, and its hot sun blaring down for long hours at a time, the island never failed to rejuvenate even the most stressed-out individual. Katara, despite her natural preference for colder days, couldn't help but love the time spent on the beach. Fond memories were built over the years, and soon enough, the memories included more than just her, more than Zuko.

They included Kya now, all gangly limbs and endless curiosity, shireking every time the tide chased her ankles before running right back toward it again as if daring the ocean to try harder (much like her mother, if she did say so herself). They included Toph stretched lazily beneath a sunshade with one arm thrown behind her head, listening intently to Kya’s rambles about some shell she’d found, answering every question with perfect accuracy. They included Kanto, too, broad-shouldered and kind in the way mountains were, sitting beside Toph with his feet buried in the sand. That was what her time away looked like lately, and it was what she preferred.

OR: Katara, Zuko, Kya, Toph, and Kanto spend time at Ember Island and expect private time to no avail.

New fic and in a new series called Five Eyes! :D (Get it, because between Zutara and Kantoph there are five working eyes).
