AN: Hello everybody~ (.m.)/) hi yes, sorry, and no, I'm not dead. It's been a long, long, lonngggg struggle for this one as you can tell but my "hiatus/inactivablitly." I've just had a hard time writing this (and a lot of shit happening in real life). Lol, I thought this was a nice prompt at the time when I said yes but over time… *cough cough* but alas, I am a person of my word. I've slaved away with this plot in my mind for basically a year so please enjoy my tears and frustration ;A;

changingdestiny40, I tried my best to follow your prompt as closely as possible, however I have changed some things to save my sanity. I did my best so I hope you'll like it (YOU BETTER LOL).

As always, disclaimer: I don't own the Legend of Korra franchise.

Ah, and Happy Thanksgiving!

Ch 1: Calm Before the Storm

March 17th, 188AG - *Han's POV*

When I woke up, I opened my eyes with that slight burning feeling before rubbing them and yawning. I shiver when sitting up and looked at the clock with bitterness. Nooo it's too earlyyyy… it was only 6:00AM. Stretching my body, I shake off that stiff feeling before remembering the plane I finished making last night and quickly got out of bed. Still in my pjs, I quickly ran out of my room and went towards my parent's room.

"Mommm! Mommy!" I see them both together in bed for once so I grinned before deciding to jump on top of them. One step away, I wind up before jumping and landing on them getting a "Oof" and started rocking their bodies. "Mom! Mommy! Gooodddd morning! Wake up! Wake up! It's sunday can we please go to the park! Please please pleaseeee! I wanna test the plane I finished last night!"

Mom starts groaning loudly and mumbles, "Han… what time is it? The sun isn't up yet so don't wake me up. The morning is evilllll…"

"It's like six and come on pleaseeee you're finally both home for once!" I pout hoping that mom will wake up early for once.

Mommy sits up while holding their blanket against her chest and starts giggling, "Korra he's right you know, it has been a long time since you've had a day off."

"Nu uh! I had that one day off."

Mommy rose a brow with that face, "Mmhm and when was that?"

I can tell mom is probably sweating, "Um… uh… l-last week? Two weeks ago?"

"Last month." Mommy deadpans with her scary face. "I forced you last time, like today. Again." She sounds scary and I can feel goosebumps go down my spine before she turns and makes a beautiful smile while looking at me, "Good morning sweetie. Do you mind grabbing my shirt off the floor?"

"Sure!" I climbed off of their big bed and quickly grabbed a maroon shirt off the floor. For some reason they both always sleep naked, I don't get it.

"Ughhh Sami that doesn't mean I want to go to the park before the sun's up!" Mom whines again while rolling over and sitting up. Though, unlike mommy she doesn't hold up the blanket and her chest is completely exposed.

Quickly running over to mommy's side, "Here you go!" I pass her baggy t-shirt and leaned up for a morning kiss.

"Thanks Han," mommy quickly puts on the t-shirt before leaning down to kiss me on the lips. I smile in the kiss and break from it.

"But sweetheart, you do realize just because it's early it doesn't mean we'll be at the park now. We're gonna have some breakfast and shower before we head out. Cause you know, we look like morning slobs." She says while giggling.

Mom is still grumbling, "More like you're the hot mess… your hair is pretty messed up."

"..." Mommy's brow went up as she leaned into mom's ear and whispers something before nipping her ear affectionately.

I blink. Is mom blushing? Hmm… wonder why?

"A-Asami! H-Han's right there!"

"Come on Korra," she starts kissing mom repeatedly, "Please *kiss* let's have *kiss* fun *kiss* together *kiss* what do you say?"

Boo I'm jealous… I'm bouncing up and down bored while they whispered to each other and before I knew it, I made eye contact with mom. We stared at each other in the eyes for a split second and I feel like she smirked before kissing mommy on the lips.

I blink a few times before asking for permission again, "Please! Can we go early! I really want to test my plane out!" I urge knowing that mom is definitely in a better mood.

"Okay okay you win kiddo. Come on let's go eat some breakfast," she pulled the blanket off of her and reached down, grabbing the blue hoodie off the floor. After her head pops through it and lets out a yawn while scratching her stomach. She also cracked her neck from side to side and I did the same by reflex.

"Yay! Last one to the kitchen is a turtle goose!" I grin while quickly sprinting to the kitchen.

"Hey not fair you got a head start!" Mom starts running after me while mommy just laughs at us.

I beat mom to the kitchen and grinned in victory. "I won I won!" Mom was right on my tail before she gives me this look when she quickly grabs onto me and tosses me over her shoulder. "AHH!" I screamed in excitement before she starts spinning me in a circle while I flail about.

"Who's the winner now?!"

Mommy finally caught up to us and gasped in shock, "Honey! Korra babe stop spinning our son so much, he's gonna get dizzy!"

"Wooo-aahh woooah!" The floor is spinning as I stare at mom's feet rapidly pivoting back and forth.

"Nahh! Don't worry Asami, he's fine!"

"Uughhh!" I think I made a weird face because mom had this look of horror on her face before she stopped and set me down.

The world is spinning and I think mommy had her arms crossed with one eyebrow raised higher than the other before she said, "See, I told you."

"Oohhhh," I was bobbing back and forth as mom steadied me.

"Whoops! Sorry, my bad Han!" Mom laughs nervously before leaning down and pecks me on the lips.

"Okay enough horsing around kids, what do you two want for breakfast?" Mommy says while pulling her hair up into a loose ponytail.

"Hash browns, sausages and waffles please!" Mom answers while grinning with a big smile.

"What about you Han, you want the same thing as Korra?"

I feel like my eyeballs are going to fall out of my head, "S-Sure…"

Mommy giggles, "Go wash up you two, I'll start breakfast."

"O-Ookaayyy!" I managed to say.

Mom walks up behind mommy and grabs her by her hips. She starts kissing mommy's neck as I waddled over to the down stairs bathroom. I can hear some kissing noises but I ignored it and washed my hands. By the time we finished eating and got ready to go, it was like 10AM. Wowww, here I wanted to go to the park early but noooo. Of course mom had to start flirting with mommy during breakfast. Booooo! I wanted to be fed… and kissed… it seemed fun… whatever, I'm not jealous hmfp… booo…

"You two ready yet?" Mommy asks while spinning her keys on her finger.

"Yup!" Looking down at me, "Don't forget your plane."

Gasping, "Shoot! I left the remote control in my room, I'll be back!" I gave my plane to mom and ran up to my room. Glancing over my shoulder, I see mom wrapping her arms around mommy's waist from behind and they started cuddling. It's nice to see them flirting with each other again. After all, mom has been really busy with the case she's working on so they haven't been hanging out that often. It doesn't help that mommy is about to sign a new contract too so they'll be seeing each other even less now even though we live in the same house.

*Korra's POV*

Kissing Asami's pale neck repeatedly, I miss this… I miss Asami and Han so much… I didn't think Kuvira's case be this complicated but still… "Mmh babe…"

Asami kisses my forearm, "Yes dear?"

"After I'm done with Kuvira's case we should seriously go on a family vacation… just the three of us. I'm sorry that I haven't been home that often… you know how I love to-"

"Investigate things at first hands. I know Korra," Her giggles sounds like music to my ears. "Yeah, that we do. It's been way too long since we've… mmh had sex… last night was barely enough… I'm seriously becoming sexually frustrated Korra," she tilts her head back and kisses my lips, "Mmh…" she starts moaning in my mouth as the kiss got more intense.

Mmh, geez her tongue is so soft and warm… Making sure not to crush Han's plane, I spin my wife around and kiss her properly. We're both engrossed in the kiss and it only felt like a second before Han came running back down.

"I'm back!" He excitedly shouts.

Glancing over, I reluctantly release Asami's lips with a slightly wet pop. "Alright kiddo, let's see how well you made your plane!"

He squeals in excitement, "Uuu uuu! I used a different motor this time so the speed for this model should be increased! I even made the design more aerodynamic so it'll be so much faster than the last one I made! Oh but booo the last prototype I made burned because I didn't have the right voltage regulator but that's okay! This one should be perfect!" He spits out.

Blinking dumbfounded, I'm always defeated when I hear Han taking smart but, hey, what can I say, I'm really proud of him for being so smart like Asami. "Care to translate babe?" I nudge at my wife.

Asami giggles again since she finds his gibberish basic knowledge, "Basically he overheated the last one when he tried to make it faster so it burned but this one should be fine." Stepping out from my hug, she walked towards the door, "But let's hurry so we can see if this one's a success. What did you name it?"

"Phoenix Bird XIII!" He bounces around as we walked to the car.

"Wait the thirteenth? What happened to the other ones," I hand the plane over to him with my brow raised and he starts laughing nervously.

"Well um… I might have broken… or burned…. or ignited some of other ones hehe?" He says innocently while making a big grin.

Looking at Asami, "I wonder who he takes after." I say sarcastically while rolling my eyes.

"What are you trying to say Korra? Like he doesn't get his stubbornness from you either?"

"Hey don't look at me, I'm not the tech savvy one. He, a hundred percent, gets this from you." I say while leaning against the car frame.

My love rolls her eyes, "Hurry and get in already Korra! Unless…" biting her lower lip while looking at my body seductively, "You want me to make you…"

Mmh… as much I would like that… Glancing back at Han in the back seat, "Okay okay let's go."

I shut the door and buckled myself in as Asami went into reverse and we were on our way to the city's park. Of course, Han continued to talk gibberish about his plane on the way there which I failed to understand. Asami on the other hand, talked the same gibberish back and they were both speaking some foreign language. Well, whatever it was fine, I enjoyed listening to my beloveds since this was the usual conversations they have anyways.

Besides, when Asami didn't have to shift gears, we'd be holding hands. I loved rubbing the back of her hand with my thumb and I'm always amazed by how soft her hands are despite rough play she does everyday. If you know what I mean…

When we parked, Han went running out the door and set up his plane. I quickly pecked Asami on the lips before we caught up to him, hand in hand. Watching him start and fly the plane, I couldn't help but make a big smile. "Hey Asami…"

My wife rubs my hand before humming for me to continue.

"Hmm… say… I've seriously been considering this but, when Kuvira's case is over, what do you think about going to Amber Island for like… let's say a month? You know, just the three of us. A nice and long family vacation."

She looks over to me with a slightly surprised look before she puts on her thinking face. "Hmm… well… that would be…" she makes a beautiful smile, "just amazing."

We got even closer and intertwined our arms more as Han yelps in excitement with his plane zooming around us. I smile, "I'm not sure when it'll be settled but I'd like to believe it'll be just in time for the end of Han's semester. That's a couple months away so hopefully my case will be settled and your new contract will be set and done to."

She has such an endearing smile, "Yeah I think I should be fine. The CEO of their company should be arriving here within the next month or so and we just need to go over some more details and if everything goes well, I should be all set around that time as well."

Grinning like a sleaze ball, "Cool!" I leaned in and hugged my wife tightly. Asami of course hugged me back and wrapped her arms around mines. I just feel so warm and safe in her arms, I love her so much.

"HAANNNN!"

Scrunching my brow, we both look in the direction of random someone calling our son's name. Squinting off into the distance, it takes a moment before my face lightens up. "Oh!"

We loosened up our hug before sadly breaking apart, "It's Amber."

Han screams her name and waves before safely landing his plane. He quickly grabs it and comes running over to us practically bouncing up and down as the family got closer to us.

"Hey Bolin, Opal! Whatcha doing here?" I speak up while half waving my hand.

Bolin starts grinning like the true sleaze ball even though he's still a good distance away. "Koorrrraaaaa! Asammiiiii!" He screams even though we're now like what, fifteen feet away? "Hey you lovebirds! I didn't think we'd see you here!"

I watch as Han runs over and starts showing off his plane to Amber before they start playing away. "Well, you know how Han is making stuff all day like someone I know…" nudging my wife as she rolls her eyes while smiling.

Opal giggles, "He really does take his creative side from Asami doesn't he. Well… but I do have to say he gets his abrasiveness from you Korra. Amber was telling me the other day when he 'picked' a fight for Amber's friend who was getting bullied."

Faking a gasp while covering my mouth, "Whatever do you mean Missus Beifong?! My son did not get into a fight with some boy! He's too good for them!"

Now my wife jabs me, "Hey! He definitely got into a fight! We're lucky that he didn't get expelled you know that!" She low key scolds me.

I shrug, "What can I say, we taught our son what is right and wrong so I'm proud that he defended Amber's friend." Smirking smugly and proudly.

Asami starts rubbing my hand, "Well yes I'm glad he didn't ignore it but still… he's only eleven so he shouldn't be getting into fights!"

"Well takes to Han's 'heroic' act, Amber is bent on wanting learn martial arts!"

"Now now now, let's not forget that junior learned his lesson so he won't be bugging Lily anymore!" Bolin interrupts trying to smooth my wife's anger. "Besides, everything turned out smoothly and they just all have to write a letter of apology."

Opal chuckles, "They probably didn't want to have to deal with Republic City's best and renowned lawyer."

Winking with a grin, "What can I say? I'm good at what I do."

"Thanks for feeding my wife's ego," Asami jokingly rolls her eyes, "Anyways what are you two doing here?"

Opal was smiling fawnly before this sad expression overcame her face, "Well we were all getting some fresh air since my sister's case is… well you know…"

Now I frown, "Hey don't worry about it Opal, I am doing everything in my power to defend your sister! You know I would never take on a case if I don't believe they're innocent." I try comforting her in order to hide my fears. In actuality, Kuvira's case is really difficult and is in the grey area of the law. Although the only one who really knows my troubles and anxiety is Asami.

Asami steps closer to Opal and pulls her into a one armed hug while discreetly holding my hand with the other. She leaned her forehead against Opal's, "Don't worry okay? I know that your sister is innocent and you have nothing to worry about."

She's squeezing my hand even firmer, "Korra is doing her best and she literally won't rest unless I make her. Well… with some resistance of course, you know how she is. She won't stop until it goes her way."

"A-Asami…" tears were building up in Opal's eyes and I had a hard time looking at her. I just smiled sadly while looking at the floor.

Of course Bolin also got more emotional and teary for some reason and pulled us all into a group hug. "You gals are the best!" He sniffles, "I know everything's gonna be alright with friends like you! Even Mako is doing his best and he's digging real deep to find more info on Kuvira's case!"

Wrapping my arm weakly around Bolin's back, "Yeah… everything is gonna be alright…" there was an awkward yet comfortable silence before our kids came running back to us.

"Mom! Mommy!"

"Mama!"

We all look at them and our eyes widened at yet another kid.

"Look who we found, Kazu!"

My mouth kinda drops, "Oh come on what is this? Did you plan a meet up without my knowledge or something babe?"

Asami giggles, "How'd you know love?"

Breaking from the hug with an earnest surprised face, "Nooooo. No way seriously? I knew something was up when you kept up stalling us this morning! When did you have time to make bopal andddd kainora come here?! Come on babe! Don't keep me in the dark! I would've worn better clothes than just sweats and a hoodie!" Smacking myself in the face, "Damn I knew I should've worn my sport clothes!" I grumble slightly bitter.

Well technically they are my friends so I don't have to look nice but still, I like looking slightly better than a slob in front of them. I am a renowned lawyer after all. Gotta look 'professional' … pfft, it sounds funny when I say it… well think it.

Asami walks over and pulls me in a loving hug and pecks my cheek, "Aww what's the fun in that! Besides you're extra cute when you're a lazy bum." She teases me with a smudged look.

I pouted at her with my lips puckered, Man she looks so fine that it's blinding me.

"Eww korrasami stop! The kids are around!" Kai quickly interjects with a faked grossed out face.

Ugh don't ruin the moment! I pulled away from the hug and pout even more before turning around, "Hey! At least Kazuki takes after Jinora! Who knows what would have happened if he took after you!"

His eyes sort of snapped open, "Hey! Don't say that! He totally takes after me to right sweetie?!" He pouted while looking at Jinora who is suppressing her laughter.

"I have to say honey, Korra got you there… Kazuki does take after me more than you… sorry!"

"What?! Aww babe don't say that!"

Everyone starts laughing as our kids continued to run after one another. I couldn't help but grin and laugh as well. It's been a while since we've met up like this, well, excluding Mako though. It's nice… watching Han, Amber and Kazuki playing with each other. Our cute kids having fun on this rare day where we all actually have the day off.

*Asami's POV*

Looking at Korra laugh, I couldn't help but feel relieved. Thank goodness… Korra seems to have cheered up. I'm so glad that everyone could make it. She's been really stressed these days and won't even relax or take a break… Kuvira's case is really taking a toll on her.

By the time we knew it, we ended up talking for quite some time before I happened to glance at my watch shocked and turned to our children, "Hey kids! You guys want to go eat some late lunch now? It's almost two thirty," I ask honestly not expecting time to pass so quickly.

"Huh?"

"Wha!"

"Ooohh!"

They all paused and perked up before running up to us. "Ohh! Food! Food! Mama papa I'm hungry!"

Kazuki jumps onto Jinora's leg while Amber ran into Bolin's arms and Korra lifted Han up onto her shoulders.

"Well well well! Looks like everyone is hungry! Where do you kids wanna go?" Korra says while grinning.

Amber excitedly says, "I wanna go to Narooks!"

"Me too me too!" Han agrees while swinging his legs making Korra hold on to his waist tightly.

"I'm okay with anything…" Kazuki shyly says.

"I guess it's decided then," I smile before raising my hand, "Who wants to ride with us?!"

"Oh oh! Me me!"

"Me too!"

Both Kazuki and Amber bolted from their parents and run to me as I smirked smugly at them.

"Whatttt heyy! You don't wanna ride with me?"

"No no! Asami's a cool driver! She goes vroommmmm and pussshh vroommm!" Amber excitedly shouts while fake driving with her hands.

Cute… patting the kids heads, "Well you heard them, I have just room for two more kids so the rest of you can carpool." I chuckle in victory.

They all roll their eyes except for Jinora, "Yeah yeah rub it in Miss Sato the ooohhh so great CEO of Future Industries! The young genius! The great inventor/mechanic! Ah! The oh so great race car driver to!" Kai jokes.

"You know you're only gonna gonna make my humble wife's ego grow even bigger right!" Korra raises her brow, "Even if she'll never admit that."

I raise my brow teasingly now, "I guess you're paying for your own food babe. What a shame here I was planning to make it my treat today!"

Korra mouths drops, "Wai-what hold up babe! I don't mean it that way! You know I love you more than anything out there!" She sped walked over to me grinning like a sleaze ball while pulling me into a hug a one armed hug. Han was still on her shoulders and we all were smiling happily.

"Mmhm…" I raise my brow playing with her before kissing her cheek, "Well let's hurry and go. I don't want the kids starving."

Enjoying our little joy ride to Narook's, I managed to make the kids scream and shout from excitement. I purposely riled them up with my driving which was more… intense than usual so that they'd be more tired when we got there. And hey, what can I say, my plan was more or less a success because when we finally went inside, they weren't too much of a hassle. Thank goodness for that because we were kinda a lot to handle for the poor waiters and waitresses. There were nine of us and our bill was pretty hefty but I made sure to leave a big tip for the… well inconvenience we may have caused.

"Aw man it's been such a long time since we've had such a great time together!" Bolin grins as we walk out of the restaurant while rubbing his stomach.

"Hm… the last time we ate together was my dad's wasn't it?" Jinora says while her hands intertwined behind her back.

"Yeah I believe so," Opal confirms with her brows slightly scrunched. "That was like a bit more than a month ago no?" Letting out a sigh.

Crunching the gravel as I looked at the parking lot floor, "It really has been a while, huh," smiling sadly, "We really should hang out more often. Even if we're all not together it'd be nice." Glancing over to my wife who was right behind us, she was playing with all the kids and was getting pulled back and forth.

Smiling thankfully, "Thank you guys again for meeting up with us all of the sudden… it really means a lot to me."

They're all smiling, "Of course Asami! There is no way we'd pass on hanging out!" Bolin says while grinning.

"It's always just like the good old times!" Kai adds while smiling.

I giggle now, "Yeah, just like before we became parents."

Everyone starts laughing before Bolin spoke up, "Yup! Sounds about right but I wouldn't want to change it for the world."

Smiling happily, "I couldn't agree anymore…" looking over, I can't help but love my wife and son so, so much. I remember the vows Korra and I exchanged when we got married just like it was yesterday…

Asami, my dearest love, I swear that I will always be by your side no matter what may happen. Even if the whole world were to go up against you, I will protect you. I will be by your side to listen to you. To embrace you. To praise you for what you have done for the world, for me. You are my everything and I am nothing without you.

We may have been through some tough times but I wasn't alone all these years. Things haven't changed. Korra may be busy but that doesn't mean I'm alone… And everyone is still the same, fun, loving and encouraging selves. We help each other out and are there for one another. Problems and worries can't stand in our way. It can't weigh us down because we're together.

AN: Welcome to the end! Hey, hi, yo. But uh yeah… this is gonna be a long one so hang on tight. I probably plan and posting bi-weekly so no promises for every week. I shrug, let me know your thoughts! I thrive for yah commentssss~

P.S. fun note, what Asami whispered to Korra in the morning: "Well… who was the one who grabbed onto me so tightly last night?"
