50 Sentences with Krisuk Title: Ice Lord Author: Dark Puck Fandom: Avatar: The Last Airbender Character: Krisuk (OC) Rating: PG-13 Prompt Table: 1 Sentence, theme set Epsilon Summary: The story of a young man of the Northern Water Tribe. Notes: I did this to help get Krisuk's 'canon' background in order. This is his history within non-AU universes, and the early years often go unchanged even within AUs. Rated for child abuse.
#42 – Bother Pakku eyes the brat with no uncertain annoyance and orders him to go away; the boy holds himself tall despite his five winters and proclaims yet again, "I want you to teach me waterbending."
#07 – One "I'll only be a month, Krisuk," Satok promises his eight-year-old son before leaving on the whaling expedition; it takes six before the boy accepts that his father isn't coming home.
#08 – Thousand He's sculpted just over a hundred cranes out of ice when his uncle destroys them all.
#10 – Learn "It's Krisuk, dammit!" he snaps at the older boy, who has gotten his name wrong for what seems to be the thousandth time.
#03 – Young Hahn is only eleven and Krisuk recently ten, but together the two of them challenge the first test of manhood early and emerge battered but triumphant.
#09 – King "I'll be chief one day," says Hahn as he and Krisuk mend nets; Krisuk just rolls his eyes and lets the young warrior have his dreams.
#14 – Command "You're going to be my first mate, you know," Hahn informs him, and Krisuk has to stop and process this for a moment before he realises that his friend means it literally.
#47 – Harm The sheer pain blinds him for a moment, and Krisuk realises that maybe throwing himself into a tree to explain his cracked ribs to the healers probably isn't the brightest thing he's ever done.
#16 - Need Yugoda frowns after the boy slipping away from her healing hut; Master Pakku's young prodigy seems to be seeing her more than the other young ones, and always for some sort of cracked bone.
#27 – Hide He is twelve, nearly a man, so why does he take cover underneath the bed when his uncle returns from a night of drinking?
#29 – Safe Hahn is popular and well-liked; Krisuk can escape to his home when it gets to be too much and know that his friend will suffer no consequences.
#45 – Naked Hahn erupts from the water with a yell that certainly isn't akin to that of a little girl; "You bastard!" he yells at Krisuk, "You said it was warm!"
#46 – Drive Krisuk is almost always waterbending now; once he earns his mastery he'll be a man in the eyes of the tribe, and he'll able to get a home of his own, or maybe move in with Hahn, and he won't have to explain away his injuries anymore.
#06 – Gentle He flinches when Pakku catches his wrist, but the old man's hands are soft as he pulls up Krisuk's shirt to see the ugly bruises marring his ribs; Pakku's tone is oddly gentle as he asks, "Did he do this to you, boy?"
#44 – Wall The blow catches Krisuk by surprise, throwing him back into the solid ice of the home he shares with his uncle; when he looks up, another catches him across side of the head, temporarily depriving him of his hearing; he doesn't mind because now he can't hear his uncle screaming about Master Pakku.
#36 – Stop He feels the blows crashing on his back, but suddenly he recalls the look on Master Pakku's face — what has been done to you? this isn't normal — and lashes out at the man who has made his life hell these past six years.
#04 – Last "You'll never hurt me again."
#15 – Hold He can feel the pulse of the water, and he exerts control over it, stopping it, and keeps it stopped until his uncle crumbles at his feet.
#39 – Torn Pakku can hear his student vomiting outside as he closes the eyes of the body; he isn't sure if he's proud of Krisuk for putting an end to his abuse or ashamed that he didn't realise the boy was being abused sooner.
#13 - Change Before the death of his uncle, he is arrogant and a show-off; once the man is dead, he quiets and refuses to spar with his peers.
#22 – Mad "Why didn't you tell me?" Hahn yells at him, face flushed; Krisuk can only stare as he goes on, "We could have stopped it together and it wouldn't have come to this!"
#26 – Goodbye "You don't have to do this," says Pakku, but Krisuk shakes his head; "The law may consider it self-defence, but there is no excuse for what I did to him. I can no longer stay here."
#33 – Never "Yeah? Well, when I'm chief, I'll go out and find you and then you'll have to come back."
#25 - Shadow He didn't see Hahn the day he left, but that was all right; as the Earth ship left the harbour he could see his friend's silhouette in the distance.
#41 – Power Krisuk laughs and raises his arms over his head as the sea rages around him; the sailors look at him fearfully, ground-pounding Earthfolk that they are, but he hasn't felt this alive since his father left on his last hunt.
#38 – Wash He stands under the buffeting waterfall with a smile on his face; he will always consider his homeland superior, but he will admit that this is an aspect of the Earth Kingdom he likes.
#49 – Hunger He's got nothing but his swords and the clothes on his back, but even when he hasn't eaten in a week, he will never lower himself to stealing.
#31 – Book Krisuk looks up at the Fire Nation soldiers who have just demanded he surrender and says, "Come back later. I'm reading."
#05 – Wrong "He's helpless without his swords," mocks one of the soldiers; Krisuk just laughs and, with a gesture, yanks the water from the squad's canteens and sets in to do battle.
#02 – Cool The Water Tribesman, much to the disconcertion of the soldier attempting to interrogate him, has a way of sitting in a chair that seems to proclaim that the entire office belongs to him and he is only tolerating the presence of the Fire Nation within it.
#20 – Picture Somebody has been vandalising the posters of the wanted Water Tribesman, adding silly glasses and an elaborate moustache; it isn't until he is caught in the act that the Fire Nation realises that it's Krisuk himself.
#32 – Eye Gold meets sapphire, and the two young men grin; they have a common enemy and thus will unite despite the enmity of their homelands.
#21 – Fool The Fire boy, as it turns out, is named Huān; when Krisuk asks him what he did to get the soldiers angry at him, the younger boy grins broadly and says, "I committed the gravest sin of all: I danced."
#18 – Attention There is a saying in the Fire Nation: 'The largest flame is the first to be snuffed'; Krisuk realises quickly that his new friend is not only the largest flame, he's coloured bright purple while jumping up and down and screaming, "Look at me! Look at me!"
#01 – Motion
Huān understands body language to a degree Krisuk never thought possible; he can tell where a person comes from and if they can bend just by watching how they walk.
#28 – Fortune "You," Krisuk says to the baker, "are going to be rich because of these."; Huān is vastly unsurprised when the Water Tribesman buys everything she has in her basket.
#34 – Sing Krisuk wouldn't know a tune if you hit him over the head with one in a bucket, but that doesn't mean he can't appreciate the music of the other nations; privately he will admit that perhaps the arts are something the Fire Nation really does have a good grasp on.
#50 – Believe Krisuk doesn't think about the North Pole often; he misses Hahn and Master Pakku, but at the moment, he's got a friend to keep him company and nobody but himself to rely on; this, he thinks, is almost paradise.
#30 – Ghost "Kreeshaw" whispers the wind; he looks up and yells, "Gods all damn it, it's Krisuk!"
#11 – Blur He's having trouble reading the letter; something seems to have gotten into his eye to make everything fuzzy because Hahn can't be dead.
#17 – Vision "You really need to move on," his friend tells him; "Just because you weren't there doesn't mean I would have lived."
#12 – Wait "Hahn, don't leave me!" Krisuk yells to the night sky, "I can't be alone anymore!"
#35 – Sudden He feels a blow across his face and staggers, even though there is nothing that could have struck him; "You idiot," Hahn snarls at him, "you're never alone!"
#43 – God The old man isn't breathing; Krisuk reacts without thinking and reaches out and into the man's body; there are the veins and there is the heart, no longer beating; he takes a deep breath and starts to force the blood to move.
#48 – Precious Maybe this bending isn't a curse, Krisuk thinks, looking at his hands as the old man is looked over by the ship's doctor; Maybe it was used for this kind of thing originally, and what I did in the North Pole is a perversion of that. Maybe it's a gift.
#40 – History The legacy of bloodbending will not be only destructive, but will point out the good that can be done with it.
#24 – Now "It's time to go home."
#23 – Child "Master!" comes a familiar shout; Pakku turns and is not at all surprised to be embraced by one of his old pupils; when Krisuk pulls back, he is pleased to see that the boy is no longer wearing his childhood mask.
#37 – Time Krisuk has changed, reflects Pakku; his years in exile have matured him from a feckless boy with a too-strong love of the law to a young man with a burning sense of justice.
