Kana(M): Hey, Papa. Can I talk to you about something?
Kaden: Sure, Kana. What's up?
Kana(M): It's Mama. I feel like she's always treating me like a child.
Kaden: Well, that's only natural, right? You're her son. And you ARE still pretty young.
Kana(M): I know, I know. I just mean I'm not as young as I used to be. I want to help out with stuff too. But whenever I try, she just tells me to go play with my friends instead.
Kaden: Ah, I see. You want some responsibilities of your own, huh?
Kana(M): Yeah! I want to show her that she can count on me. Can you think of any special things I could do for her?
Kaden: Let's see... I usually bring her pretty things I find or buy, like that kaleidoscope. Those seem to make her pretty happy!
Kana(M): Oh...
Kaden: Er...you don't exactly seem satisfied with that answer...
Kana(M): Well, those are special Papa gifts, right? I can't just copy you... Besides, I want to give her a gift that shows how responsible I can be too. Oh, I know! Let's have a contest, Papa!
Kaden: A contest?
Kana(M): Yeah! We'll have a contest to see which of us can make Mama happier! Between the two of us, I'm sure we can come up with all sorts of things. Whoever Mama thanks the most wins!
Kaden: A little father-son competition, huh? Sounds like it could be fun. I'm in!
Kana(M): Really? Yay!
Kaden: But remember, I'm Avatar's husband. I know her better than anyone else! And I'm not going to go easy on you, all right?
Kana(M): That's OK with me, Papa. I'm gonna beat you fair and square!
Kaden: Heh. Then let the best man win!

Kana(M): Hey, Papa! I've been making a ton of progress on our contest! How about you?
Kaden: Well, I haven't done anything too special, but I've gotten quite a few thanks already. Let's see, now... I've got a tally here somewhere. Ah! Here it is.
Kana(M): WOW! That's a lot! And you got all of these already?
Kaden: Yeah, I was surprised too. I guess I do more for your mother than I'd thought. Maybe I'm a pretty good husband after all!
Kana(M): Hmph... Well, I'm still not gonna lose! Here, see! I recorded all mine too! And the total is...um...
Kaden: W-WAIT! What is this?! You got the same number as me!
Kana(M): I did? I did! Haha! Kana's gonna beat you big-time, Papa!
Kaden: How did you even earn all of these?!
Kana(M): Mostly I've been trying to help out around camp. I spend each morning making arrows for the fletchers. Then, at lunch, I slice the bear meat and hand out the food to the soldiers. Oh, and at night I make sure the mounts are all fed and outfitted for the next day. Plus I do a bunch of other little things whenever I have the time!
Kaden: Wow. That's a lot of work. I'm impressed! You really have been growing up, though, haven't you?
Kana(M): Huh?
Kaden: Oh, just a thought. It wasn't so long ago you were still in your swaddling clothes. Now, all of a sudden, you're making real, important contributions to the army. Maybe I've been treating you like too much of a child too.
Kana(M): Heehee. Yeah, I've been working real hard. Soon there'll be nothing I can't do!
Kaden: I believe it. And I bet your mother is very proud of you for all your hard work.
Kana(M): I hope so. And I'm gonna work even harder for her tomorrow! I won't let this end in a draw, Papa!
Kaden: Heh. Guess I can't afford to get careless.

Kana(M): *grumble*
Kaden: Hey, Kana.
Kana(M): Hi, Papa...
Kaden: Something wrong? I'd have thought you'd be in a better mood after winning our contest the other day. Or has beating your old man already lost its charm?
Kana(M): Oh, no. I'm still happy about that, I guess. It's just that I was trying to do things for Mama earlier, and she made me stop. She said I should be spending more time playing around with my friends. She still thinks I'm just a kid. Haven't I shown her I'm old enough to help out around camp?
Kaden: Ah, so that's it. I wouldn't worry. It's not you. You're doing good work, I promise.
Kana(M): Then why doesn't she want me to help with anything?
Kaden: I think your mother knows full well you're capable of handling the work. But seeing you acting so grown up makes her feel sad.
Kana(M): Huh? Why?
Kaden: Well, she doesn't want to lose her baby boy. She is very, very proud that you're growing up and working so hard. But at the same time, she's worried it means you won't need her anymore. It's a little contradictory, but it's true. Parents can be funny like that.
Kana(M): So...what should I do?
Kaden: I'd say to keep doing things around camp, but don't work yourself so hard. Take breaks to see your friends, play games, go on adventures. You know. And try to spend some quality time with your mother every now and then. Think you can handle that?
Kana(M): But...
Kaden: What? You don't want to spend time with your mama?
Kana(M): No, that's not it! It's just...I feel like that stuff is for babies.
Kaden: No, Kana, it's not for babies. It's for children. And your mother wants you to stay a child for just a little while longer. We both do. So live a little! It's OK to treat yourself, you know.
Kana(M): Papa...
Kaden: Kana, we know that you're growing and that you want more responsibilities. And we know that you're gonna be a fine young man someday. But for now, relax. Enjoy yourself! Don't try to grow up too quickly.
Kana(M): OK. Thanks, Papa. I'll think real hard about everything you've said.
Kaden: Good! You know... I think it would be good if you spent the night in with your mother. I'll go talk to her about it now.
Kana(M): Wait! What about you?
Kaden: Huh? Me? No, I've got to—
Kana(M): But, Papa! Don't you need a break sometimes too? And don't you want Mama and me to be happy?
Kaden: Well, when you put it that way... All right, all right. I'll stay in with you two.
Kana(M): Yaaay!
Kaden: Heh. A night in with the family, huh? I gotta admit, I think I could get used to this.
