Sylwanin Sully looked a lot like her mother except rather than have her hair braided she had it flowing straight with a few beads and flowers in her strands pulling part of it back. She often wore a woven shawl over her shoulders with a matching loin cloth and beaded bands around her wrists and ankles. Out of all her siblings, she was the closest to her twin Lo'ak; they didn't look alike but both had five fingers like their dad so looked more like Navi / Avatar hybrids. It was a trait they both wished to carry together. They cared for each other greatly and always had each other's backs.
The young teen was sitting in a tree above the big family hut, sketching in a large sketchbook. Though any items associated with the sky people were forbidden in the tribe, she was a huge lover of anything she found craft. Though she despised sky people judging from the stories their parents told them when they were kids, she knew in her heart that not all of them were bad. Like her father. And his scientist friends who had chosen to stay on Earth when they supported the Navi in their fight against the human invaders. Sometimes she would visit the human lab where Spider lived and when he would show her around, Norm her father's friend would give her some paper and pencils to do sketching in, seeing as how she loved that hobby.
She sketched a picture of herself riding her Ikran whom she had named Skeera. She next sketched a beautiful blue and purple flower dangling down from the tree. She loved to draw the nature of the beautiful forest of Pandora; it was full of wonder and beauty. Every day felt like an adventure exploring its mountains, cliffs and rivers and encountering incredible creatures such as Ikran and viper wolves. Flicking through the pages, she looked over her landmark, creatures, and plant she had drawn. She still had so many blank pages left. She felt like she was losing inspiration.
"Boo!" boomed two annoying voices.
Sylwa screamed and fell off the branch with her book. She grabbed a vine and swung herself onto a branch with her book. Hearing loud giggles, she saw Lo'ak and Neteyam from up above, laughing. She growled. "That's the third time this week!" she scolded. That earned another chorus of chuckling. "There will be repercussions for this!"
The boys high-fived each other only to hear a loud cough of the throat. They turned their head to see their mum standing arms crossed. "What have I told you two about pranking your sister?"
"Sorry," they apologised. She cocked her head downwards. They looked down at their sister. "Sorry,"
"There you are Sylwa," Jake spoke below with Kiri and Tuk beside him. Sylwa giggled seeing them below. She stacked her sketchbook in her knapsack, slung it across her chest, swung on a vine, and landed gracefully on the ground in front of them.
"You know me, dad,"
"And then once again you're falling out of trees," Kiri added, amusingly.
She rolled her eyes. "Oh ha,"
The mother and the sons joined them below and sat together to have dinner.
"Were you sketching again?" Neytiri asked.
"You know me, mum," Sylwa could sense her mother wasn't exactly okay with it. "Mum, I know it's a Sky people habit but I quite enjoy doing art,"
"Try looking at her artwork," Lo'ak encouraged. "It's amazing," he gave Sylwa a convincing look and she took out her sketchbook and opened it, revealing the amazing sketches to her family.
"They're beautiful," admired Tuk.
"Amazing," Kiri breathed.
"I even did sketches of all of you," Sylwa went over to the section of the sketchbook where she had done face portraits for each of them. Neytiri admired the nice picture of herself and Jake. "Couldn't resist doing one of you two,"
