Description Katara wasn’t one for tricks--magic, her brother once insisted with wide-eyed wonder. Aang, however, loved them immensely and would attempt little ones whenever he could. Usually, she would laugh at his grin and waving hands; but she always caught on… like how he oftentimes used his airbending to make the ‘magic’ happen.

She thought it was cute.

It wasn’t until months later that she realized jealousy lined the thought. She wanted to be able to do something silly, to catch her audience’s eye. How embarrassing, she lamented, that she would even think of something like that! But when she saw Aang standing there, staring out into space and rocking back on the heels of his feet, she remembered something her father had taught her.

“Hey, Aang?”

Gray eyes turned to her, a question in their gaze, and he tilted his head to the side.

For a second, she hesitated. It was dumb. There was really no point in doing it… but she wanted to. That urge drove her hand forward, reaching right behind his pale ear. Ignoring the confusion flowering his face, she retracted her arm… and a coin shined between her fingers.

“H-how did you do that, Katara?” he asked, voice giddy and eyes bulging.

She smirked, the sudden praise elating her. “I guess you could call it ‘magic,’” she said with a shrug.

Day two!

HAHA. THIS PROMPT WAS HAAAARD.

(Please to be ignoring the crappy background! )

Yeah! The mainreason for why iI ship Kataang is that I suspekt that Katara, after her really unhappy childhood, needs someone who can make her comfortable with being just enough imature to really enjoy life and sometimes do dumb, pointless things just because.

Smoke and Mirrors can be a metaphor for magic; but that's only one way to see it.
