Prompt: Behavior


"We are almost there, right granny Katara?" A young Korra asked loudly from her clinging position on the railing of the ship they were aboard.

Katara watched in amusement as the six year old peered over the edge of the railings for the hundredth time, before one of the many white lotus guards accompanying them reached over, plucking her away from her dangerous perch.

The mini Avatar pouted as she was sat down on the bench next to her mentor and temporary guardian.

"Korra, why don't you sit for a while … look, even Naga is behaving well."

The little girl looked over at her polarbear dog - who was huddled under a bench, face hidden behind slightly oversized paws. "Naga's not 'being good', she's just a scaredy-cat!" She huffed.

Korra was, by nature, a very rambunctious girl, and that coupled with the excitement of leaving the South Pole for the first time, made her almost uncontrollable.

Of course, Katara had years of experience dealing with with her own three children as youngsters.

She thought for a moment. "If you sit here and behave I will make sure we have moon cakes after dinner tonight."

Bribing, the secret weapon of adults everywhere.

"Really? Ok!" Korra exclaimed happily, thoughts of foreign treats filling her young mind, which allowed the rest of the voyage to continue largely uneventful.
