⠀
⠀ She’d gasp.

⠀ “Bending? Oh, since when could you two bend?”
⠀

⠀
⠀ She runs up to the both of them with a smile.

⠀”Heeey! What are you two up to?”
⠀

𝒓𝒐𝒔𝒊𝒆

all three… if you want…

𝒓𝒐𝒔𝒊𝒆

send them into the atlaverse…

⠀
⠀ Yin gasps, and her lips form a giant grin.

⠀ “AAAAH! A WEDDING?! WHO’S IS IT?! OH, CONGRATS TO THEM!!”
⠀

⠀
⠀ The moon materializes.

⠀ “About what?” :3
⠀

⠀
⠀ Yin tilts her head, and Yang’s brows furrow.

⠀ ☀️: “Why are you petting us?”
⠀

⠀
⠀ “Oh, you know, what you’d expect. Being together almost all the time, feeling what the other feels, the usual..”

⠀ Yin would hum. Yang simply wraps her arms around her waist.
⠀

⠀
⠀ “We’re two halves of a whole, of course we’d be matching~!”

⠀ She nuzzles against Yang’s side.
⠀

⠀
⠀ Yin smiles and sits down in front of them, with Yang doing the same.

☀️: “We’ve been fine.”

🌙: “It’s nice to meet you two! I’m Yin.” She holds out her hand.
⠀

⠀
⠀ Yin was passing by, clinging to her precious Yang. She spots the two and coos.

⠀ “Awww! How cuuuute!”
⠀

⠀
⠀ The moon would sit down next her.

⠀ “Besides.. the only opinions about you that should be important is your own, and the ones from people you love. And I know, those people, they don’t see you as a bad person.”
⠀

⠀
⠀ “Mm? But what?..

⠀ Oh, sorry. It must be personal, nevermind. But really, your voice was great. Maybe we could duet?”

⠀ A cheerful smile was on the moon’s face.
⠀

⠀
⠀ She’d nod.

⠀ “Mhm! I’m Qiangbei— ah, or Yin. You must be.. Nomal, right? I’ve heard about you from Yangie.”
⠀

⠀
⠀ “Is that what your friends think of you? Or what strangers do?”
⠀

⠀
⠀ “That is not all you are.”

⠀ She sighs.

⠀ “If you really want to know why people like you, ask your friends. I know they’ll be genuine.”
⠀

⠀
⠀ “Oh, child..”

⠀ The woman walks over to her.

⠀ “You know that is not true. There are plenty of people who care for you and would gladly help you with those problems.”
⠀

⠀
⠀ Warming up next to them.

⠀ She’s shivering slightly.
⠀

⠀
⠀ Applauding his singing.

⠀ “Hey! That was great!”
⠀

⠀
⠀ “Ah- o-oh,”

⠀ Qiangbei stumbles a little. She slowly lowers them both to be sitting on the ground, rubbing her back gently.

⠀ “There, there.. it’s okay..”

⠀ She soothes, holding the girl.
⠀

⠀
⠀ “You doing okay? You seem to be doing better than the last time I saw you.”

⠀ Qiangbei simply stays where she’s standing, letting the girl approach her.
⠀

⠀
⠀ She notices how the girl jumps, and she backs away a little.

⠀ “Hey, it’s alright. You’re safe.”

⠀ Qiangbei reassures.
⠀

⠀
⠀ Humming quietly, passing by.. until she spots the girl!

⠀ “Oh! Hello again! ♪”
⠀

⠀
⠀ “Aww, you’re such a big fan of me, it’s cute.”

⠀ Qiangbei pokes her nose, giggling softly. She always found it adorable how whipped Toph was for her.
⠀

𝒓𝒐𝒔𝒊𝒆

LMFAOAOAOOOOO

⠀
⠀ Qiangbei is even more confused.

⠀ “..but Tophie hates wearing dresses?”

⠀ She just stands there for a few moments, blinking, before running after them.

⠀ “HEEEEY! WAIT UP!!!!”
⠀

⠀
⠀ “Higher.. beings?”

⠀ Qiangbei tilts her head.
⠀

⠀
⠀ “Narra! Moon friend! Ooh, cool scythe.”

⠀ Qiangbei chimed, walking towards them with a pep in her step.
⠀

⠀
⠀ “There there.. it’s alright, it’s gonna be alright..”

⠀ Qiangbei pats her back, trying to console the girl. Her voice was a soft whisper, soothing and gentle.
⠀

⠀
⠀ Qiangbei crouches down next to her, placing a hand on her back. “Poor kid,” she thought to herself. She notices the scars dotting the girl’s body, her concern only growing.

⠀ “Hey, hey.. take it easy, okay? What happened?”
⠀
