Everyone enters the room for dinner talking about the events of the day, the food is set out and everyone sits in the same seats as before, which unfortunately for Lin means conversing with Meelo. A light chatter remains but most people are eating. In Meelo's case more of the food is falling on the table and being smudged across his face than what he is actually eating.
"Aunt Lin, since you're my hero and I love you the most, can you pass me a serviette to wipe my face.... and the table." He adds the last part with a shy giggle causing the rest of the table to laugh, except Ikki.
"Hey! I love aunt Lin more than you!" Ikki speaks up angrily, staring at her brother.
"Naaaa! Aunt Lin's my hero so I love her more!"
"She's my hero too!"
"I said it first!"
"Well, I meant it more!"
Jinora being older than her siblings is more mature in such situations and avoids conflict, in true Airbender fashion she cuts and runs.
"Don't worry Aunt Kya I love you the most." Jinora reaches for Kya's hands and the older woman wraps her niece in a hug.
"I love you too little lady, so much." She says as she squeezes the young girl.
Lin looks to Kya for help but soon seeing the display of affection decides to wait before asking for Kya's help.
"I love Aunt Lin more!"
"Do not!"
"Do so!"
"Do not!"
"Do so!"
Lin, unaware of what to do, looked to Kya with a pleading look on her face.
"Help me!" She whisper shouted to Kya who just giggled at the woman.
"It doesn't matter which one of you loves Aunt Lin more cause I love her the most!" Kya declares wrapping her arms around Lin pulling the metal bender closer.
Lin's eyes went wide as Bumi spits out his water as Izumi chokes on her breakfast and Su stifles a laugh.
The air bender children go silent as they stare at their Aunts trying to figure out a response.
"Meelo I think Aunt Kya wins..." Ikki says to her brother.
"I guess she does, she's known Aunt Lin longest, even longer than daddy so she has to love her the most." Meelo looks over to his father who audibly chokes on his food.
"I suppose you kids forgot that I used to date aunt Lin so I think I could win this one," Tenzin says, a proud look plastered across his face as if he'd won.
"I don't know tenny, I've got a pretty good feeling that I win this one." Kya looked back towards her brother pulling Lin impossibly closer.
"I dated Lin for nearly ten years!" Tenzin says, raising his voice in confusion as to how Kya could possibly win.
"And then broke up with her! After ten years! AND THEN not even two months later you're dating Pema who just miraculously happens to be two and a half months pregnant!" Kya raises her voice more than Tenzin but instead of confusion, her voice is filled with pure rage and disgust.
At Kya's words, the entire table went silent. All eyes fell on Tenzin who was shellshocked, he had no clue his sister resented him for how things ended or even that she knew how far along Pema was and that it didn't fit the timeline of when he broke up with Lin.
