Atuat - Tumblr Posts
Hei-Ran and Atuat sometime before they flee to North Chung-Ling.
Hei-Ran is like "I left these damn kids alone for one minute and now the whole Fire Nation is in shambles."

Question... Have Kyalin shippers discovered Heituat??? Because it's the exact stuff you are looking for, but the interactions are CANON.
You've got a high-strung, middle-aged military-type who scares everyone with her searing glares, EXCEPT her exceptionally skilled and good-humored waterbending healer.
Like Lin, Hei-Ran is absolutely deadly and intimidating but also so babygirl. They also both have a penchant for offering their life up if it means saving others. Meanwhile, Atuat has the attention span of a fly and even worse impulse control, but her waterbending skills are prodigious, and she gets things done when it matters.
Saw something that said Kyoshi and Kuruk likely ended up with more of a brother/sister relationship than a mentor/student one and I’m here for it:
Kyoshi, spiritually contacting Kuruk: holy shit dude you’re not gonna believe this
Kuruk: girl what’s going on out there?
Kyoshi: okay so basically Hei-Ran is so obviously into this Water Tribe chick right? So being the amazing future daughter in law that I am, I set them up
Kuruk, gasping: you didn’t!
Kyoshi: I totally did. It worked, as I knew it would because I know a useless bisexual when I see one. However, it seems that Rangi is unaware of the fact that they’re dating
Kuruk, cracking up: that’s adorable! Oh, that kid always had a bit of issues trying to find out who likes who
Kyoshi: I know right? Good thing I’m so perceptive!
Kuruk, snorting: yeah okay
Kyoshi, frowning: why did you say it like that?
Kuruk: you are probably then most dense woman alive
Kyoshi, offended: I am not! I am so aware of stuff!
Kuruk, deadpanned: Rangi had a crush on you literally the entire time you guys lived in the mansion
Kyoshi: that-that is a lie! There’s no way! She did not give me a single hint!
Kuruk: a month after you moved into the mansion, Rangi spent the entire day glued to your side because you mentioned you had a nightmare
Kyoshi, blushing: she was being a good friend
Kuruk: she was holding your hand the entire time. When have you seen Rangi initiate physical contact with anyone else in general?
Kyoshi:……………….if you weren’t dead already I’d punch you so hard you’d be sent to the spirit realm
