"So, this is all of it," Nik smiles, presenting Poppy to his treasury. Over his journey, Nik devoured a lot of items, but he stored even more. These items include precious materials that can be sold for funding in other civilizations, or so he hopes. After all, he has experience of three worlds now, and Gold is expensive in all of them—so he rightly bets on gold and other bejeweled materials for the time being.
Poppy's eyes fall over a solid block of gold carved into the shape of Phoenix as she thins her lips and musters, "I want to return this choker."
She touches the article around her neck with a soft expression. The strap of her choker is jade-green, similar to Toph's, but her pendant is shaped from gold and carved with the symbol of money. Nik's words at the time had been—You bring me the most incredible luck when it comes to earning money. And his claim may as well be accurate, for he acquired his first mansion after meeting Poppy.
But now Poppy knows how deep her man's schemes run!
"You just want me to work while you laze!"
"While I train!" Nik corrects her with a grin. Nobody's got time to keep the books, damn! He even tried to ask Michi's help before this. But she turned around the second she saw the room. Honestly, Nik is somewhat happy that the women around him don't regard money to be mighty, similar to him. Then again, it's probably because they have the potential to be filthy rich in any world they go.
Poppy stares at Nik with her almond eyes until she exhales and questions.
"What do you have in mind?"
Nik gestures for her to take a seat on a small hill of golden coins, which she does with a rather perky skip in her steps, making Nik smile.
Plopping beside her, Nik explains, "I always wanted a home of my own, but I also understand that I want to train a lot more. So, I feel the administration of my personal world should be up to you guys. I trust Sokka to deal with the people."
"And us?" Poppy questions, curling near Nik as she takes in his natural scent with a breezy smirk.
"You guys are with me," Nik shrugs. "Again, I need a lot of time and experience to fully understand the development of this world in an economic sense. But who says I can't look for your support? Michi, Ursa, and you are educated in these matters. Yue, too, understands a lot about administration. So, while Sokka runs things on the surface since he wants to, you guys can overlook central things. I'll be right next to you all the entire time."
Poppy considers everything and adds. "And my role is to keep the accounts, is that it?"
"Only if you want to. I wouldn't force you. But I think you would need something aside from helping Michi out with her flower shop to keep yourself busy. After all, Toph continues to explore the underground region of this world most of the time."
Poppy smiles at his words.
"Promise you won't trade me to keep your account wealthier?" Her impish tone alludes to her 'stellar' past of helping her ex-husband trade up the shores as Nik scoffs a chuckle of disbelief. "Trade you? I'd rather go broke."
"And how will you manage to provide for so many women?" Poppy climbs atop Nik, her silky green robe slowly peeling off her shoulders as her flushed cleavage greets his sight.
"I will find another wealthy chump, find his wife in the night to rid her of her aching needs, and steal his mansion, too," Nik smirks back before questioning. "Good enough?"
"Hmm, I don't doubt your tastes the least bit," Poppy leans down on him, her lips breathing upon his with a soft groan vibrating in her throat. "Just be sure to find a wife with enough skills in bookkeeping. I can't be expected to cover such a large estate all alone, right?"
"Noted. One accountant."
Nik nods with an amused tone. Before Poppy kisses him, her eyes fall on a strange sight.
"Nik?"
"Yeah?"
"Is that a golden penis?"
Nik blinks before looking back and finding a solid chunk of gold carved into a familiar erection, eliciting Poppy to gasp, "Is that your golden penis?"
"Toph may have had a practice run here before you."
Poppy deadpans at Nik before sinking her lips over his and whispering in between, "I should measure that golden sculpture for the sake of keeping account, right?"
"Please, do. It's a start."
Nik laughs.

The meeting with Late Zhao's real father—King Bumi—was simple and less than a tear-jerker. Aside from sharing a torture cell with the king, Nik's interaction with Bumi was minimal. Instead, Sokka, Rena, and Toph had more to converse with the mad king. The former duo was slightly fond of the King and his eccentricities due to their adventures with Aang. Not to mention Bumi was a great comedic pillar in Sokka's life when he was going through rehabilitation to recover from his hypnotism.
Meanwhile, Toph wanted to spar with Bumi.
Toph didn't care if Bumi didn't have hands or legs. After all, she was blind herself. After the duel, the duo shared some rock candy—Jennamite—which Nik happily included in his personal space.
After setting some things in the night after the meeting, such as letting Poppy take the role of the accountant officially and carving the sight of a Golden dildo embedded into her creamed pussy into his memory, Nik flew for Suki's Kyoshi Island.
It wouldn't take him more than a few hours to reach there on his glider. But the expected time of arrival is shortened considerably now that he can ride Ignit—one of the main reasons why he stayed in Omashu for the night—to commission a saddle for Ignit by the great blacksmiths of Omashu.
"I hope you don't mind the leather," Nik smiles and shouts, barely getting his voice across to Ignit as she flies as fast as she can. Her wide wings flap powerfully as she coughs a peal of fire before tilting her head slightly with sharp teeth bare in what Nik can imagine a grin.
"We still need to work on your landing, you know?"
*Kshaaaa*
She lets out a draconic hiss with lightning buzzing around her horns. No, it wasn't a threat but a retort.
"Hey, I could at least start bending lightning in these few days, but you can't stick a proper landing even now," Nik shrugs.
*Whooosh*
Ignit folds her wings and zooms toward the ocean like a missile before diving into the water with a crash as Nik smirks and lets a sphere of air deflect all the pressure.
"You dragons and your temper," Nik snickers. "I'd love knowing a sweeter Lizard Ignit. You're just plain mean!"
Now wet, Ignit looks back again and wags her tongue out, her golden eyes glimmering in sardonic glee.
"And," Nik sticks his nose a little high in the air. "I can bend other elements, remember? You can't."
Ignit snorts in displeasure, not looking back at him again for the rest of their flight—successfully peeved.
'It's not like I'm bound to a spirit hunted by all else.' But as enlightened as any other dragon, she continues to grumble internally. 'I must learn to speak human. But humans have too many different languages, according to Nik from where he originates.' And like a true beast, her thoughts have no center. 'I wonder if there is anything better in his world to eat? No. Before that, I heard from Suki that the Elephant Koi Fish are delicious. I must devour one.'
She picks her pace, not fearing if her 'partner' will be affected or not as his weight and the feel of the leather on her back and belly barely inconveniences her. Then again, it is only because Nik is riding her. Others would be lucky to keep their hands if they tried it.
'Except Azula,' Ignit croaks an ugly snicker internally. Oh, how she loves making the Princess work for the barest of her affection.
Fortunately, no spirit greets the duo with their twisted welcome when Nik and Ignit land on Kyoshi Island.
Well, the term 'land' is relative.
*Splash*
Ignit slows down and dives deep inside the sea near the coast while Nik jumps off before gently landing on the coast as Ignit swims up with a glare.
"What? I didn't say anything?" Nik cocks his head sideways with a smirk as he lets out Suki and the rest.
"We're here," Suki mutters as she is in her Kyoshi attire. She turns around and stares at the girls she's teaching—Ty-Siblings, Michi, Poppy, Ursa, Kya, and Jin. With Kyoshi explicitly clear on not taking any elemental benders in their teaching, Suki never tried to teach the likes of Azula and Toph. But she spars with the whole lot, including June and Mai, as she even practices the chi-blocking with Nik and the Ty-Sisters.
"I will introduce all of you to others and get you into Kyoshi colors." She is visibly excited as she says this, causing Nik and Katara to look at each other as they recall their short duration as members of Kyoshi Warriors.
*Hnf* Ignit strolls forward elegantly, snorting near Suki's face and then rubbing her reptilian snout into her shoulder.
"And get you an Elephant Koi as promised," Suki's smile widens as she brings her hand forward to gently pat Ignit's head, much to Azula's exasperation, which she doesn't hide one bit. However, anyone can see a bright-red band of cloth around Azula's neck with a golden crystal carved with the roaring face of a dragon.
Nik simply realized Azula would like a dragon carving on her pendant more than anything else, while Ursa's golden crystal pendant reveals a carving of a wick of fire.
"I will bring others around as you indoctrinate them," Nik looks at Suki. "Are you sure you want to be the one to breach that topic with the villagers?"
"I am," Suki sighs softly. "And I've also made up my mind before this, so the result of the impending conversation holds nothing over my decision."
Nik nods and looks at Sokka and the rest. "Right, you guys are with me! I'll show you where I almost got eaten by the Unagi until a smoking Avatar saved my life!"
"It was Aang." Suki rolls her eyes, unwilling to have anyone 'defame' Kyoshi.
"And he was smoking," Nik shrugs as he recalls Aang in his tall babe Kyoshi form. "Anyway, don't frighten the villagers." He looks at Ignit, who sticks her head high with pride.
Her answer—No.
---
"So, Mai," Azula purrs as she walks next to Nik, glancing at Mai's neck. "How about you show your engagement collar?"
"To you?" Mai stares at her before shaking her head quietly.
"Do you know what's carved on her pendant?" Zuko whispers to Sokka. Nik didn't bring Tom-Tom out. He already made friends with some other children in the personal space and only wanted to be let out when it was time to bid their farewell to Aang.
"Fortunately, no," Sokka smirks, a little happy about his ignorance.
"I know," Rena butts in with a smirk of her own as she wags her brows. "Would you guys like me to spill?"
Sokka and Zuko look at each other before smiling simultaneously. "We're fine."
"Hmm," Azula's smirk widens. "Sounds like someone's being ungrateful. Mai, you do know that a woman like you will barely attract any man's attention."
"Hey," Nik shoots her a look with moderate offense, "I think Mai's cute. And before slinging on another's choices, you should look at the mirror, Guzzler."
"Hah!" Toph grins.
Azula snorts and glares at Toph.
"As I said," June shrugs while riding Nyla, "Mai's pendant is kind of hot."
Unbothered by their conversation, Mai walks beside Yue.
"Then what is it?" Azula questions.
"Oh, I know," Toph replies smugly.
"You're blind," Azula narrows her eyes.
"But not stupid enough to forget that I've got my sight," Toph grins back.
And as the leader of this chaotic group, Nik looks at Mai. "Sorry, I really didn't think you would hate it that much."
"She doesn't," Toph shrugs.
"How would you know?" Mai bats her eyelash.
"Come on! Did you guys really forget I can pick lies with your heartbeats?" The Blind Bandit huffs in dissatisfaction.
"So, I actually love you guys a lot," Azula blurts out of a sudden and smiles. "And I will never make fun of any of you."
"Uh, what?" Zuko blinks.
"Toph," Azula ignores Zuzu and questions. "Was I lying?"
Toph looks back at the Fire Princess as if staring at her mortal enemy.
"Damn, this bitch is good."
Azula's lips curl further as she glances at Nik smugly.
"You just proved to be one of the most untrustworthy people potentially. I still don't get why you're acting smug," Nik deadpans at the princess as she rolls her eyes.
"There," Mai's voice suddenly cuts in as others look at her, finding her maroon choker on full display. But unlike her mother's silver stone pendant that has a carving of a brush, others see a totem of a sun carved into Mai's crimson pendant.
"Oh." A curious voice vibrates from Azula as she is too familiar with the totem, or rather, a crotch tattoo that Mai's skill grants Nik when she increases his sensitivity.
"Happy?" Mai questions blandly, a freckle of red dusting her fair cheeks as she averts her gaze. She isn't fond of anything too bright and 'exciting,' so a 'sun-kissed' pendant felt too weird for her to wear, but Nik is known to bring the worst out of her, and this time is no different.
"I am~!" Nik grins and continues leading the group with a soft humming tune.
"Are we sure traveling to another Island won't come back to bite us in our asses?" Zuko questions after a moment of silence as others halt briefly.
"It's Kyoshi's Island, so it shouldn't," Nik hums and smiles wryly at the group. "But best be prepared."
"Don't worry," Toph shrugs, her hands behind her head as she walks without an ounce of fear. "I'm with you guys. No spirit can deal with me."
"Reaper did," Azula bullies the blind.
"Didn't he deal with all of us?" June hums in agreement.
"Heh," Nik smirks, too close to brag and only stopping when feeling others' annoyed stares.
"How about we try and build a spot for a school of Elephant Koi in your personal space? They can thrive without the Unagi controlling their number." Katara questions.
"They are too large," Sokka shakes his head. "Now that I think about it, how will you expand this world of yours when the population becomes too large to fit inside?"
"Problems for later," Nik half-shrugs. "And who's to say my 'Boss' won't have any gifts regarding this issue? The only problem with my employer is that it only informs me of things after I complete certain actions."
"As in sleeping with someone and then telling them you're an interdimensional flight risk?" Questions Mai.
Nik scoffs but fails to find a good response. After all, he did do all that.
"Oh, I can finally see that giant Eel you were talking about," Toph's eyes widen as she starts jogging. "Come on! It's huge!"
"She's always so excited when seeing huge things," Nik mocks a sigh and shakes his head, earning a stare from the rest once again as he picks his pace too.
