The next day there's an article in a scandal sheet insinuating that there may be something inappropriate going on between Delightful Jun and the Avatar.
Beila adopts a strategy of completely ignoring this insinuation until an interviewer asks her point blank, at which point she says, "No," and declines to elaborate further. Because there is nothing to elaborate on.
She shows up, exasperated, for her next firebending lesson.

It's one of the prettiest ones yet. Jun creates beautiful streamers of flame that ripple and hang in the air for a moment before fading away, in every colour from red through orange to yellow to white to blue. And in the course of his exquisitely choreographed routine, he burns off successive layers of his elaborate outfit - blue and white and yellow and orange and red, the outer layers gauzy and translucent with trailing edges, the inner layers more substantial and close-fitting.
When he spins out of the ashes of the red kilt, there turns out to have been nothing else underneath it.
The audience is mainly pleased with this development.

Beila rolls her eyes and pecks Dao on the blushy, blushy cheek nearest her.

He leans into her a little, because she is extremely reassuring. And. And wow.

Jun goes right back to his gorgeous firebending with hardly a pause. And it is gorgeous.
He doesn't do the lightning trick to drop the curtain this time, but he does do the wings.

"He is an excellent firebender and an excellent entertainer," chuckles Beila. "If he were about a decade younger maybe I'd have a crush on him too."

"He's only something like forty," Dao says defensively. "...Which is more than twice my age, but not much more. Um. Okay, so maybe he's old. He's still pretty!"

Jun comes out in front of the stage, wearing one of his beautiful embroidered robes, to say hello to tonight's small crowd of fans as everyone else files out.

"I don't know," he says. "I'm indecisive. I might just sit here wondering if he is wearing anything under that until everyone else has left."
