Rules:

Katara/Aang - Um, are his kids the last airbenders or waterbenders or just non-bending genius's like Sokka? *grin*

The midwife shifted on the bed, and Toph assumed she was being given a stern look. Woman totally didn't have any sense of humor. Toph would have way preferred the servants' midwife, but no, Zuko thought they had to do this all official and traditional. Like she didn't know how to push or something.
Still, she felt stone in the kid's bones. Like her and Haru and the Boulder and Long Feng and Kuei. That made up for a lot of unpleasantness.
"Hah?" Zuko asked from the other side of her, and the bed shifted under him as he laid a hand on her shoulder. "You did it."

There's a fair to middling chance the kid will die, given the current tech-level of the Avatar universe. (He won't, because I would have too much fun with little earthbender Prince Sozin.

You're welcome!

Heh, sorry if the kids are confusing. I was a bit worried about that, but wasn't sure how to put it in since Kanna knows it and has no reason to think about it.
Kanna is Katara and Aang's daughter. Kitsi is Jee and Nima's son.
