Don't Tell Part 1
Mako x Reader (touchstarved and secret relationship)
Part 2 Masterlist
Tumblr media
Summary:Mako x Earthbender reader
You being touch starved for years suddenly have an intense crush on mako after he put himself in danger for you and the safety he provides following the attack. You both keep your relationship under wrap from the krew. You both don't want to deal with everything that follows them finding out.
Tumblr media
You sat at the table with Opal, Bolin, Korra, Asami, and Mako. You had been friends with the group since the downfall of Kuvira.
You had been an escaped supporter like Bolin. You had escaped shortly after Bolin.
The table was full of chatter from the group and what they had been up to. Korra and asami had been dating for a while. They were perfectly matched. Opal and Bolin were happily dating. You and Mako both just endured the public display of affection from the couples.
"I actually have a date tonight." You spoke happily to the group.
Asami immediately smiled brightly. "Is it the guy from the Pro-Bender tournament?"
You nodded. "It is. His name is Nabi and we are going to the café on airbend Lane. The one with the good pastries."
Bolin gasped excitedly. "We love that café. They have the cutest little paw pastries with a fireferret charm."
Opal pulled out the charm that Bolin had given her. "They do! It's a very nice place for a first date."
You stood leaning against the brick wall. Your nerves were pressing. This date was something you kinda forced yourself into to try. You hadn't been on a date since leaving Kuvira's army. That was well over a year ago.
You stood in your own world, trying to press down the fear. Your heart fluttered at the thought of seeing Nabi again. You lifted your eyes seeing Nabi walking up.
"Hey!" You hugged him casually. You both stood outside the café. "How was the match?" You asked, knowing he had gone to watch the probending match today.
"It was good the team I bet for won." He smirked happily.
You smiled politely when the corner of your eye caught movement. A group of men were lerking closer. "Aww, isn't this sweet. Sorry to break up your date. I'm gonna need your cash."
Nabi immediately started digging through his pockets.
You stomped your foot into the ground, bending the earth as a warning shot. "I suggest you get out of here."
"You and what army?" The gang members chuckled as Nabi was nowhere to be found he had deserted you seeing his chance when you distracted them by bending
You rolled your eyes, taking a fighting stance. "I don't need one." The double meaning in your own mind, boyfriend nor an army. You bended quickly, creating distance between you and the group. You weren't dumb three on one wasn't a risk you wanted to take. You were a great bender, but no toph. You ran off jumping on your motorcycle. You sped off, but the men quickly caught up to you. Sirens blared behind the men as the cops caught up, too. The waterbender shot water your way. You blocked a little late. You got a scratch on your arm. You bended earth trying to get them off your trail. The waterbender then froze over your back tire, causing you to come to a screeching halt. You tried to keep as balanced as you could. The balance finally toppled over, but you were at a safe speed. Your bike turned over, and you hopped onto a rock that you had bending into something to slide into safety with. You watched as a bike caught up to the men. Fire caught on the bike, causing them to all jump off the bike before it exploded in the middle of the bare street. The men were surrounded by the cops and sirens immediately. You leaned against the wall of a closed store. Mako had been the one to apprehend the men and packed them into the cars of his coworkers. Your hand fell to your arm that was sore from the cut.
Mako walked from the car to you. You lifted your eyes to his. He stood much taller tonight. "Are you okay? Did they hurt you?" He lifted your hand from your arm seeing the cut underneath.
"Come on." He placed his arm over your shoulder. You hesitated from walking with him. Your knees were weak from the adrenaline. You took a step with him. Your legs were learning trust in the ground beneath you as you slowly walked with Mako. He held you stable. "Can you ride with me?" He asked as you both approached his motorcycle.
You nodded hesitantly. "Can I ride in the front? I'll feel safer. "
He hopped on the bike and opened his arm for you to get on the front. You sat down in front of him. You placed your hands on the handlebars, and he placed his hands over yours.
"We're going to my apartment." His voice sounded through the helmets.
"You don't have to do that. I'm sure I'll be safe." The bike took off you held onto the bars as mako took control.
"No chance. I know how these guys operate. I'm not risking it. You can stay over. Bolin and Opal will be there in the morning. You can just stay tonight, and we will hang out tomorrow like we planned."
"Okay. Thank you, Mako." Your back relaxed into his chest. He made a few turns and passed some buildings. Each turn calmed you further. Safety was right where you were. The feeling overwhelmed your senses.
The cool air blowing past you. The warmth of makos chest against your back. Your legs pressed against his. The vibrations of the road. You rested in his arms. He parked his bike and, for a moment, time stood still. You remembered this feeling of having a man so close to you was mako. The touch that you had starved for, just the comfort of a man. It was Mako.
The Mako that you know from Bolin. The same Mako that was with you this afternoon. The one that you always sat next to with the group. They had alway sat next to their significant others. you always sat next to mako laughing as you both poked fun at the lovers swooning over each other. This safety was him. It was always there. Tonight was just amplified by the situation.
Mako broke the comfortable silence. "I'm glad you're safe."
His hands fell from yours, and he stood up dismounting the bike. The unwelcome cool air hitting your skin. Even through the layers of clothes, you could feel the cold air of being painfully single and without the warmth of another. "Yeah, I am too." You stood up still a little shook up from the fight, or maybe it was the butterflies. Mako wrapped his arm around you to help stabilize you to the ground.
"Come on. Let's go inside. I'll get a bath for you. You can borrow some of my clothes to sleep in." He helped you step into the building and walked up to his door. He released you again to unlock the door. You could feel the cold again.
You made your way to the couch. As many times as you've been around mako, you've never seen his apartment. He no longer shared a place with Bolin. After Kuvira Bolin followed opal with her airbending, he left mako to figure out his own life path.
Mako was a fish out of water caring for himself, but with you here. He was in his element. Taking care of someone else was comfortable to him. It was second nature.
He walked to the bath and filled it with water, warming it with his bending. He grabbed a towel and picked out clothes for you. Leaving them on the countertop.
"Are you sure you're not hurt?" He called out as he entered the room again.
"No, just sore and a little shaken." You answered.
"The bath will help then. It's ready for you."
"You're the best, mako." You stood up and walked towards the bathroom. You stopped next to him. Your intrusive thoughts win. You wrapped your arms around him, pulling him into a hug. At first, he was taken back, but then he held you, remedying his own touch starvation.
"If you need anything, let me know. I'll be in the living room."
You let go and walked into the room shutting the door. You shed the clothes and a horrible day away. You stepped into the warm water, and it engulfed you in relaxation. Your mind stood still. The warmth of the bath was soothing. His bending was laced with the water it felt as if you were with him. This crush hit you like a ton of bricks.
All at once, the craving sat beside you, taking over every thought. The way his hands held yours on the bike. The way he was so gentle with you. The way he stepped into danger protecting you from the gang. The way he threw the men against the car in an effort for them to feel pain they wanted to cause to you. He was everything you had been wanting. He was right in front of you the entire time. He would fight with you and for you. You had known him for over a year, and every caring thing he did for you that seemed like a kind gesture suddenly made you question if he could feel this shift too. If he maybe felt more for you.
The water was cooling down. You stood up, drying yourself off. You wrapped the towel over your hair. The clothes were baggy but were comfortable. The shirt smelled faintly like spices, cinnamon, and distinct firebender smoke like a relaxing incense. It was both sweet and spicy.
The tub drained, and you walked out. Mako looked up from his book. "Feel better?"
"I do. What are you reading?" You sit on the couch next to him. His arm was thrown over the couch and almost over your shoulder.
"Just some fire nation history." He put down the book on the coffee table.
"I never knew you were a history guy."
"Not normally. I just want to learn more about my culture." He spoke honestly.
"Anything interesting? I don't know much about the firenation." You both sat comfortably on the couch. Your mind wondered back to his touch and how you felt with him. You could feel the electricity in the space between you.
"Just rulers with anger issues and a lot of festivals. There are a few good leaders, though. I just got to where Lord Zuko took leadership. He was so young."
"Maybe he can teach you some about the culture one day. I do know the firelily festival is coming up. You deserve some time off. Chief would probably let you off to go." Your heart was leaping. Your thoughts turned to what it would be like to travel with Mako with this newfound crush. He looked so different in this light. The way his jawline stood out. His bone structure screaming firenation with the hard edges. His slim figure left you wondering what was under the clothes that shielded your view.
"I don't think that's a great idea. I don't think I should go alone to the firenation. I would look the part, but there are so many traditions I would look like a fool for not following them." He was aware of his resemblance to the firenation. Enough to leave you an opening. It was more than enough of an opening for you to take. You battled the thought in your head.
"I could go with you." Your mouth moved too quick for your head to stop it. "I know a little from my parents. They had some friends from the firenation. We celebrated the firelily festival with them a few times."
"If you want to go. I'll ask the chief next time I see her. When is it?" He seemed to want it more for you than himself. Maybe just an excuse to get away with you, just you.
"It's in a few weeks. It will be fun. My parent's friends told us stories about the firelilies and how they were decorated for the festival, and we can try some authentic firenation food." You were excited reading between the lines, hoping you were reading correctly.
"Bolin is going to be jealous." Mako chuckled.
"Let's tell him after we go. This can be a trip for you." You baited.
"For us. You deserve a break, too. Especially after today. What happened? You were supposed to be on that date, right?" He bit down on the hook that you laid out. Us was a simple word, but the heavy meaning was feeding you, leaving you a pure glutton for more.
"Yeah, he had just shown up, and then the gang showed up telling us to give up our money, and he ran."
"He left you alone with them?" He tensed unknowingly, setting it up so perfectly for you.
"I'm not going back out with a man like that. I prefer a man who will fight by my side." You grabbed his hand from behind you and pulled his arm down across your shoulder. You let go of his hand and shifted closer to mako. His fingertips traced your arm where you had just placed his hand. His body released the tension from his anger of you being left in danger. The new sensation of you showing interest was taking over. Your arm tingled from his touch again.
"I wish I would've been there." He spoke softly he sat up from his relaxed position.
"I wish you were there, and the gang didn't show up." You admitted feeling him pull you closer. You wanted desperately to be on a date with him instead of the coward. The way he made you laugh when you were with the krew. The way he was so kind-hearted with that hard external shell. You had cracked his shell before tonight but really tasting his gentle side now. You wanted more. It was intoxicating.
"A trip to the firenation is big first date. Are you sure you want to go with me?" He was leaning in so slowly.
"We have time to plan one before. Then we can take our secret trip together." He smirked, placing a hand on your waist, pulling you all the way into his grasp. Our was another word that wasn't just tossed around. It was something that linked you both as one. His lips met yours. You were free to explore this new beginning alone with him. That's how you wanted to keep it. His soft lips were electric to yours. It was as if lightning was striking the earth. Your lips were tingling with each move. His hand gripped at your waist.
You ran your fingers through his hair. Ethereal feelings rushed around you. Your hands searched for something stable, finding his chest to be suited. Your world was crashing into his. It left you in a daze.
Mako pulled away slowly. His hand released your hip, sliding down your leg comfortably, and his gaze met yours before running down the length of your hair that was unbundled from the towel.
"I don't want to tell the others anything yet. I don't want to deal with the questions and them poking fun at our expense. I want us to figure everything out first." You spoke through the euphoria glazed on your lips.
He nodded in agreement, trailing his fingers on your back. "When they find out we are in for it."
"If they find out..." You trailed leaning back in to kiss him, needing that euphoria back.

"Ready?"
Korra finalized her well wishes and smiled, "yes"
They leaned down and blew out the light together.
"Thank you for this Korra..."
-o-
HAPPY HOLIDAYS!!!!
A hella late sorry commission by our great Makorra Captain @ayur1n so beautiful and so heartwarming, it easily works for TWO Prompts!
The scene and accompanying dialogue are from Chapter 39 of one of my favorite Makorra fics: No Strings Attached by the immeasurably talented @kurocache. Thank you for delivering such a heartwarming holiday scene in your life-reviving story! (though it's just as beautiful anytime of the year tho :))

I watched TWO!!! Two episodes of ATLA in honor of the live action coming out and I am SPIRALING at how perfect ATLA was and how sad I am about how makorra was handled/written!! (I want to rewatch korra season 1 but I think i will actually go insane)
I miss when I was a kid and I would check the makorra tag and there would constantly be new posts
Now I’m an ADULT and it’s QUIET OUT HERE and I NEED MY PPL
I literally write makorra fanfiction like every day at work and I’m trying to create fan art but I’m shit (when you run out of content so you have to create your own 😭) I want to post SOMETHING but it seems so intimidating so we’ll see :///
Yes, this is a cry for help. <3

So about that dark B1 scene…
I learned something new from reddit today.
Korra, in her own words, “wasn’t the avatar anymore” and she wasn’t at the edge of that cliff to self-reflect. She came pretty close to following her fears all the way down.
Tumblr media
I didn’t catch that on my first watch. Or my second watch. That healing hut was full of her friends and loved ones and not one of them realized how deeply losing three elements had cut into Korra.
Not one…save for the person who didn’t give a fuck whether she was the Avatar or not.
Tumblr media
He followed her. Even when Tenzin told him not to. Even when she yelled at him to go back to his city where he belongs, he followed her.
Because he will always follow her. No matter how crazy things get.
Are we really supposed to sit here and not ship this?? I am not okay.

The Makorra brain rot has been deep lately! God, I love these two so much. As much as I love Korrasami, I would have loved to see an endgame Makorra, once they’d grown and matured a little. Mako helping Korra with her trauma, being there for her. Her helping him with his physical therapy to heal his arm. Just so much potential 😩👌🏻 but I guess that’s what fanart and fanfic is for.
Tumblr media
(Be sure to check out the uncensored version here on my Twitter.)
This art has inspired a fic to pair along with it, but it’s not quite ready yet so here’s just a taste (yes, the fic will be rated E):
~~~~~~~~~~
Mako let out a grunt as he hit the dusty floor on his back, the air knocked from his lungs. Spirits, he’d forgotten how hard Korra hit. It had been almost two years since they’d last faced off, and he’d spent most of it sitting behind a desk, but he was certain that she was stronger than before.
Korra walked over to him with a cocky grin and her hands on her hips, clearly thinking she’d won. But before she could say anything, Mako jumped onto his feet and punched a fireball directly at her face. It was a nice shot, especially for his bad arm.
“Hey!” Korra protested as she quickly deflected it with a burst of air, following through with a fire punch of her own. “That’s cheating!”
“Playing dead is a perfectly valid move,” he countered as he broke her fireball and sent another volley back in retaliation. “Did you forget how to fight?”
“Oh no,” she said as she snagged two earth discs from behind her and launched them his way, ducking and dodging his fire blasts. “I just forgot how much you—” She ducked to avoid a jet of flames. “—cheat!”
“I have to do something to level the playing field. You’re the Avatar.”
They each lashed out with another fireball. The ensuing collision caused a miniature explosion that knocked them both backwards squarely onto their asses. Mako met Korra’s gaze, and the two of them burst out laughing. He stood up and walked over to her, offering his hand.
“You’re not forfeiting already, are you?”

Don't Tell (part 3)
Mako x Reader (secret relationship)
Part 1. Part 4. M.list
Tumblr media
Mako x Earthbender reader
You being touch starved for years suddenly have an intense crush on mako after he put himself in danger for you and the safety he provides following the attack. You both keep your relationship under wrap from the krew. You both don't want to deal with everything that follows them finding out.
Tumblr media
You walked out of your apartment. The night sky was above. it was almost time for the mover. You met with Mako. You handed him his keys that you still had from this morning.
"So, good news. I am free to go to the firelily festival." Mako took the keys. He put them in and revved the bike. You sat down behind him, holding on.
"Really? Im so excited!" You wrapped your arms tighter around him as he drove around.
"I'm thinking of ditching the mover and us going on our first date."
"But, people are going to start questioning us." You warned.
"Let them. Its none of their business, and we can come up with an excuse. It's the only time we will know where everyone is, and we can go out without watching our backs."
"But Bolin..." you trailed.
"He isn't in the mover, so he won't be upset about it." He assured.
"Alright. Where do you want to go?"
"I'm thinking of a nice dinner date and then a walk on the beach."
"The Yue Bay Diner?"
Mako nodded. Changing his direction to head to the diner. Your hands held tight to his waist as he sped up. He took a few turns before he slowed down at a stop light.
He dropped his hand off the bar, resting it on your knee. His thumb rubbed back and forth. Every chance he had, he wanted to feel you with him. He didn't want to ever remember the feeling of not being touched. He hadn't had a mother or father to hug him or kiss his forehead before bed. It was something that troubled him. He wanted to have love. He wanted to experience his love language with every opportunity. He was deprived of it for so long.
You gave it willingly, not knowing what it did for him. You hadn't even considered he was the same as you had been. He was Mako, the hot firebender cop. Certainly, you were competing somewhere at some point in time. You had always known he had good looks, that was never a doubt. Little did you know, He had the heart broken mentality. He had cut himself off and shut out the world from his heart because he didn't know what the world was like outside of survival. He had to see the world from a new perspective. His upturn in life was just starting to catch up to his thinking. He was no longer in survival mode. He was living and not just paycheck to paycheck. He was thriving, and he wanted to share this newfound life with someone.
Your hand rested on his inner thigh while the other wrapped around his chest. You held him at the stoplight. Mako has heard about your long-term relationship before Kuvira. It was supposed to be a marriage. The man had different views on Kuvira. He wanted to continue in the destruction of the earth kingdom. You had broken off the engagement and ran far away. You fought with the krew against your ex. Mako still remembers the cry he heard when your ex died in battle. You still loved him. you just couldn't stand behind someone who was causing such havoc. That was his downfall he chose to stay in the havoc, leaving you without a future after the battle. You had been single since then, trying to heal yourself from the pain.
Mako grabbed the bar again as the light turned green, speeding again towards the diner.
Once you were there, Mako grabbed the door to the diner, holding it open for you. You both got inside, he placed his hand on your back, and you both walked to the outside seating. The small of your back felt the warmth from his hand, and tingles rolled down your spine.
You both sat down at a table. The waves crashed, sending the sounds out to the table. The moonlight was bright in a full moon, and the stars twinkled with reflections of the light in the ocean. The air was crisp and cool.
A waitress came and took your orders.
The nerves began sinking in. This was technically your first date since losing your ex-fiance. It was so casual before with Mako, just some physical intimacy that you were craving. This level of vulnerability and commitment seemed much different. Your heart was beating faster. Your attention turned to the waves.
"It's a nice night." Mako spoke softly.
"It is. You know I'll never get over seeing the ocean for the first time. I grew up in such a small town. There was a small lake, but it was nothing compared to the ocean." Your lips grew in a smile thinking of the memories.
"I grew up here. Bolin used to beg me to go to the beach with him when we were younger. I was always busy hustling, but every once in a while, we spent time here."
"I always forget you worked for shady shin." You leaned back comfortably, feeling less anxious. Mako was easy to talk to.
"I try to forget it myself. It wasn't a happy childhood, but it had its moments."
"I know Bolin is thankful. You did a good job raising him. He was always very helpful when we were with Kuvira. He is very funny and looks out for his friends. I've heard Bolin talk about his perspective, but what about yours. How was it for you?"
"It was tough. I learned a lot about the streets. It's hustle or get hustled. There wasn't much between. I'm glad it's behind me. I'm glad I turned my life around. I took a chance when we became probenders."
"I hate that I didn't get to see you play."
The waitress came out and set out your plates. You both ate a few bites between talking.
"You didn't miss too much. What about you what was life like before republic city."
"It was good when I was younger. We lived in a small village. we weren't super wealthy, but we had enough to get by. I still remember being with my friends talking about our future in the town. Kuvira stopped by our town, and she was enlisting warriors to accompany her. I joined with my boyfriend and we traveled around the earth towns."
"Do you miss him?"
"Of course, but every day, I get a little closer to not envision what would've been. For the first few months, I was grieving not only him but the life we had created and planned together. I thought maybe we could have reconnected after he saw the evil in her, but it never happened."
"I understand. I don't know what it's like to lose someone you plan a life with, but I know what it's like to lose someone you love." He reached his hand out and laced your fingers in his. "It's very hard to lose someone no matter who they are to you."
"I've been grieving it for a long time. I wish I could have been at this point sooner. If I hadn't been so blind on grief, maybe I could have seen you this way sooner." You were at a much better place to talk about the death of your first love.
"I would have loved to have this sooner, but I think it's better that we took our time just being friends. I needed to reevaluate myself. I was so used to being unstable in life that stability was a big adjustment I had to make." Mako admitted.
"You know, I always thought you were seeing women and just not telling anyone." You giggled.
"I wasn't. I spent a long time just focusing on myself and making sure I was in a good place to bring someone in my life. I spent so long taking care of Bolin. When he left, I actually had time, and I wanted to make something of myself to give a better life than what I had for my future family."
"That's really sweet, but there's no way. I don't believe there wasn't at least one. You're a firebender, hot, and a cop. That's a girls dream. You have to have women all over you." You pressed.
"No, if they were, I didn't notice. I was too busy. When I finally was ready to find someone, you just said something that I just couldn't stop thinking about. You didn't know it, but It stuck with me." Makos hand squeezed yours.
"Really? I never thought you had any thoughts like that about me. I always thought you'd fall for a woman at the station. I actually made a bet about it once with Korra. Which I lost because we kinda spied on you..."
"That's not creepy at all." He chuckled softly.
"It was just from the station to your apartment. I bet her that you were going to bring home a woman. She bet that you wouldn't, and I was sure you would because it was a significant firenation day that firenation usually spends with a significant other. That was before I knew you didn't really know much about firenation customs. I always thought you might have picked up on some somewhere."
Mako smirked. "No. Not much at all. You know more than I do."
"My village had some people that were from the firenation. They decided to leave their nation when zuko took over. The generations kept going, and my parents had grown up with some of them. They told us the stories their parents told them. Sorry for following you. I guess I might have just been curious in the back of my mind. I guess I didn't want to believe I had any feelings for anyone, especially someone I thought wasn't into me."
"I was then, and I still am." He spoke honestly. The heat in your cheeks met the cool Seabreeze.
You both had finished dinner. The waitress took mako's cash, and you both left. His fingertips trailed your side.
He led you to the stairs that met the sand. You both walked along the beach.
"The mover is probably over by now, but I don't think they will be down at the beach."
"They are at the usual hang out for sure." You could almost hear the groups jokes about you two being together from here.
"Bolin may have gone looking for me." Mako found a spot and sat down, pulling you with him.
"I almost feel bad for not telling your brother." You said when you sat next to him feeling the sand under your fingers. You rested your head on his shoulder.
"If we tell him, everyone will know."
"I don't want to tell them yet. I had fun today, especially with them, not in on the secret. I really like it just being us without them pushing." You looked out into the water.
"Korra and Asami especially. They've been on your back since they got back and heard you were the other single one in the group." Mako chuckled.
"Do you want to go back? You can stay with me tonight." Butterflies swarmed thinking about the warm bed.
"I would love to, but I can't. Bolin is guaranteed to search for me all night if I don't show back up at my apartment."
"What's our stories?" You tried to mask your disappointment.
"I was out doing some police work."
"I had a date." You added.
"Who with?" He questioned.
"A coworker."
"What does he look like?"
"He's not a hot firebender that drives me around on his motorcycle to romantic dates, if that's what you're asking. He's just a waterbender friend that I know will cover for me."
"Should I be worried?"
"Not even a little bit." You leaned in and kissed him slowly.
His lips rushed with intensity. They led you into his lap, where you wrapped your arms around his neck. He leaned one hand on the sand while the other held your hip. He was making sure you enjoyed every second that you were connected to him. He made you feel so safe, secure, and like you were the only one in the world for him.
That night at your apartment, you slipped into bed and pulled Makos clothes out from under your pillow. It was such a juvenile way of comfort, but you couldn't help but hold the clothes close. You could still smell his apartment. The firebenders smoke was still the same as it was. It had the same notes as you were burning a stick of spicy incense in your room. You imagined his arms wrapped around you and his lips attacking yours viciously like they had on the beach. Your mind cycled through the times he had kissed you until you finally fell asleep.

Thank you to the brilliant @becasart for this absolutely breath-taking commission for @makorra-week-2023! I am...criminally late (sorry...yada yada life happens yada). But, I figure that this glorious work doubling as a way to say Happy Birthday to the great @messymosaic is the PERFECT opportunity 🥹💙🥳🎂🎊🎉
Headcanon rambles under the cut:
I imagine this taking place after the B1 finale, the evening of the day Korra got her bending back. It’s going to be a couple of days until the next boat for Republic City, and there is plenty of work awaiting Korra there. So until then, she has some time. They have some time 🥰 
Korra chose to take Mako to a favorite spot of hers: a remote glade with an open view of the Southern Lights. It was one of her favorite spots to visit on the rare occasions she was let out of the compound. She’s never shared it with anyone other than Naga, and she secretly wanted to see Mr. Cool Guy’s eyes light up when he saw that glowing skyline 😏
Needless to say, she had him speechless. But while those Southern Lights easily eclipsed all of Republic City’s most boastful views, the most beautiful sight for Mako was the smiling figure looking right back at him. She is his Avatar, and he’s her Idiot ❤️‍🔥❤️‍🔥❤️‍🔥

Anyone else a little confused why Korra didn’t write to Bolin and Mako during her recovery because “they wouldn’t understand” but Asami would?! As if they never went through something traumatic aka WATCHING THEIR PARENTS GET MURDERED????? 🧍🏻‍♀️🧍🏻‍♀️
food for thought 🤨
