Could I ask for Mako + kisses that start out passionate but grows more delicate
I think I got a good idea for this, finally.
Pairing: Mako x Reader
Tags: fluff, established relationship, kissing, good luck kiss, Pro-Bender Mako
A/N: He's a firebender so of course he'd be very passionate.
Tumblr media
40. Kisses that start out passionate but grows more delicate
Tonight was huge night for the Future Industries Fire Ferrets. The championship, the chance to prove to everyone that their efforts were worth it. Mako should be giving his teammates a inspiring speech but instead he was hanging back in the locker room with you.
"You needed something from me?" He was in the middle of putting his helmet on.
"Me? No, but I thought you might." With a cheeky smile you wrapped your arms around his neck.
"Oh. Now that you mentioned it, there is something I think I want." He returned your smile with an even bigger one, "A good luck kiss goes a long way." Cursed be his gear, you couldn't properly feel his hands on you but that mattered little when his lips pressed against yours.
Mako's kisses were always passionate, almost lustful. Hot lips pressed against yours, his body walking you back until you were pushed against one of the small benches,. You didn't dare break the kiss as you felt him get on top of you. He was shaking. Nerves were getting to him more than you first thought, he really did need this.
Your fingers moved up to tangle scratch through the hair on the back of his neck all the way up as you opened your mouth to deepen the kiss. Mako didn't hesitate to take you up on your offer. Almost everyone's tongue was hot, firebender ones were a bit more so, not burning but more hot then your own that was for sure.
One kiss wasn't enough, you chased his lips as he moved away, his eyes wide for a moment before his pupils dilated. Hopefully no one will notice in the arena.
You only separated when you needed to take a breath, Mako's coming out a hot steam against your mouth, chasing your own for more. If he could he would have kept kissing you all day. But then what would be the point of these good luck kisses.
From passionate and deep they tapered off to slow pecks of the lips, each growing further apart until Make completely pulled away.
"Don't look at me like that. You can kiss me again when my team wins." Even though he said that he leaned in for one more slow kiss. "See you in the crowd, okay babe?"

Happy Halloween to those who celebrate it!
Normally I only post on weekends, but I had made plans specifically for this.
Half of me hates I did this. It didn't have to be Mako. I could have done Brooklyn, or one of my own gargoyle designs, but nooo...it had to be Mako.
The other side of me is actually really pleased that I even finished this. I haven't animated anything in years. Sure, it's just a walk cycle (with plenty of jank) but I DID A THING! It's nice to be inspired like this every once in a while.

Serial Cheater ~ Mako x Male Reader
This takes place somewhere along season 2 - Mako having just broken up with Korra and chatting to Asami again
You are a core member of team Avatar!
Short fic! Sorry lol
Tumblr media
Even though Mako is the kind of guy fan girls swoon over, most people would say that he's pretty down to earth
Your friends wouldn't describe Mako as flirty or as a serial romantic
But for the entire time you've known the muscular fire bender, some things have stuck out to you - most notably that he is, in fact, a flirt and a serial cheater (on accident)
Mako never actually means any harm to the girls he dates, but you have noticed a trend in his dating patterns of dating drop-dead gorgeous girls with a little overlap between them
It may just be the law of attraction - maybe Mako is just a magnet to romance and he can't help it
But it's most definitely a fact that if an opportunity is presented to the police officer, he takes it
And that is exactly what got the both of you into this situation
Mako and you were hanging out, Korra away somewhere on avatar business and everyone else at their respective jobs
The two of you were just chilling in Mako's apartment, having ordered take-out and drinking some new companies mass-produced rice-wine
As conversations drifted from one to the other, Mako started to vent about his highly active love-life
Being a good friend, you listened to the tall police officer - nodding along to assure him that you're listening to his ramble about his feelings for Korra and also for Asami
You of course throw in a joking comment or two at Mako's adulterous nature, but all in all you listen to his problems and offer your comfort
And your comforting and caring nature, mixed with the alcohol in Mako's system, was what resulted in your current situation
That being you on Mako's lap, making out with you handsome friend
Yes, you broke the kiss initially
Yes, you said you two shouldn't do this because of your close friendship with both of Mako's love interests
Yes, Mako begged for your warm, soft lips and for your comfort
And yes, you gave in...
Even though Mako was just yapping on about kissing Asami less than 24 hours ago, his chiseled face and warm brown eyes drew you in like an inescapable black hole
As the two of you made out, clothing started to make its way off of your body - the air in Mako's apartment becoming hotter and stuffier
But as your nude chest rubbed against the handsome man's pecs, a knock of the door forced you two apart
"Mako? Hey I wanna... talk about earlier!" you could hear your dear friend's voice shout
Asami was behind that door, and you most certainly didn't want her to walk in and see you and her not-so-boyfriend-boyfriend getting it on
You and Mako struggle to get off of one another and desperately reach for your clothes to cover up
You head to the bathroom to hide and dress back up as Mako let's Asami in to talk
You over-hear the two as you wait in your friends' tiny bathroom
Their conversation had ups and downs, but it definitely ended in an up
You peaked out of the crack between the door frame and the door, watching as Asami and Mako kissed goodbye
As the front door shut, you open the bathroom door and lean on the frame
"Sooo... looks like you really just can't help yourself" you say with a smirk to Mako
The tall man chuckles as he walks over to you
"Heh... yeah, I guess so"
"I don't think you deny being a playboy much longer, haha..." you joke
Mako holds you head up with his soft hand to make you look him in the eye - Mako's height being emphasised
"Shut up... and what if I am?" Mako half-lids his eyes as he focuses on your features
And while you know that it's a dick move on your part, breaking Asami's and even Korra's trust, you couldn't help but push your lips against Mako's
Your hands rest on Mako's strong chest, his tongue slipping past your lips as his masculine hands slip onto your waist
"That's what I'd do if your were... Hmhm~" you laugh after breaking from Mako's warm lips
The two of you laugh as the strong man picks you up, your legs wrapping around his waist and your arms around his neck
As Mako makes his way to his bed, all thoughts of guilt float out and away from your brain

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.

Voices in the Night
Ikki couldn't sleep. The moon was too bright and there was a hummingbird moth that kept tap tap tapping at her window and her head was too full of thoughts. So up she went, using a cushion of air to glide down the hallways so her mother wouldn't hear her steps and be cross.
Once outside the moon was even brighter, like a big wheel of sky bison cheese. Ikki couldn't see the hummingbird moth though. What she did see was a butt. A butt with dangly legs hanging out of one of the open windows.
"Hello, Mr. Butt!" she chirped. There was a yelp and then a man tumbled out into the bush. When he stood he had sticks in his spiky brown hair. "Oh, hi Mako," she corrected.
"Shh!" Mako pressed his finger to his lips like a teacher. His face was all red and his shirt was unbuttoned. "I was only, um, looking for... yeah." Then he took off running across the grass.
"Bye Mako!" Ikki whispered, waving. He was funny. No wonder Korra liked him.
She turned and walked the other way around the residence. A lot of people had been staying on the island lately to help her dad with what to do after those scary Equalists and making a new council and stuff, so she wasn't surprised to see a flickering light on in one of the detached residences.
"I'd never leave you unsatisfied," said a low voice, followed by a wet sucking sound. "Until tomorrow then." The flickering light bounced a bit until it was outside, where it resolved into a tiny flame carried in the hand of a young man Ikki had known all her life.
"Hi, Iroh!" she called. "Can't sleep, too?"
Iroh jumped like someone had blown air up his pants. The flame in his hand winked out. When his eyes finally settled on her she saw him sag in apparent relief.
"What are you doing out of bed, munchkin?" he asked quietly, jogging over. "It's late."
"There was a moon and a hummingbird moth and Iroh, what are all those red smudges all over your mouth? Were you kissing? Oh it'd be so romantic! Who were you kissing, Iroh? Was it a princess? Are you gonna make her a princess? Where's your belt? Are---"
Iroh clapped a hand over her mouth and steered her back in the direction of the house. "I wasn't here," he whispered in her ear. "There's extra candy in it for you tomorrow if you can remember that."
"Mwhf frn nu---" Iroh released the hand over her mouth. "Okay, goodnight General Not Here, I like rock candy, the apple ones, and I hope it was good kissing and that you go home and have good dreams about your princess where you get married and I'm invited and you fly away on a dragon together into the sunset and have lots of babies."
Iroh rubbed at his mouth with the back of his hand, blushing. "Go to bed."
Ikki waved at his back and started back to the front door. The idea of candy made her remember there were leftover sweet buns in the kitchen which no one could tell her she couldn't have if they were asleep.
Suddenly a dark shape detached itself from the shadows of one of the far buildings. Ikki stopped in her tracks. There were no more Equalists, her father said, and no bad guys coming to get them. Still, something about the way this person moved screamed "bad guy" all the same. He wasn't walking so much as slinking. A slinky bad guy slinking away from who knew what badness.
Ikki opened herself and sent a jet of air at the man's back. He stumbled with a grunt and wheeled on her and he was old! Old like her daddy was old, with wrinkles and bushy eyebrows and a stripe of white down the middle of his gray hair like a skunk bear.
"What are you doing, kid?" he growled.
"We don't want any Equalists," Ikki said firmly, hands on her hips.
The big man's posture relaxed. Then, of all things, he laughed.
"Me, neither, kid," he said. "I hate those buggers."
Ikki snorted. Buggers. Like bugs. "So why are you slinking?"
"Visiting an old friend," he said. He rubbed at the corner of his mouth and smiled. "We're getting reacquainted. I like doing that on your island. It's fun for me. Do you know what irony is?"
Ikki did. "It's what auntie Lin bends."
A grin cracked across the man's craggy face. "She sure does bend alright," he said. Then he shook his head with a sharp laugh and started off in the direction of the ferry. Ikki wondered if he was going to meet Mako and Iroh for something. Maybe they were having a tea party.

I’m so obsessed with the idea of Avatar Mako (not because I hate women, stfu Korra is still kicking ass, but just water-bending style in this AU) because the idea of an orphaned kid living on the streets, working with gangs, and fighting in underground bending rings while trying to raise his younger brother, not giving a shit about who the Avatar is or where they are, being the Avatar without knowing is so good.
Maybe his parents knew because when he was a kid, they did some little rituals or something to see if he was an earth or fire bender or if he even was one at all. But they never told him (or anyone else) because they were going to wait until he was sixteen, like traditional. So, they just went with fire-bending because of his appearance and because fire is probably more dangerous untrained, and more likely to be done on accident. (I choose to believe fire sneezing is a very real risk)
Anyway, I just.. I love this AU so much.

Mako x Gargoyles. My Brain Went Places.
As I had mentioned in a previous blog, it's been nearly twenty years since LoK ended. It's also been nearly thirty years since Disney's Gargoyles cartoon ended. With the new Gargoyles comic in monthly publication, and the release of the remastered Genesis game, my brain went places. I've seen artwork of the ATLA gang as gargoyles and pondered if the same had been done with the LoK characters. I found some images of Korra as a gargoyle but no one else. So, of course, I had to draw Mako as a gargoyle. And with that comes the story of how it happened, etc. I have an overall concept for this, but it currently remains unfinished. Maybe someday I will complete it.
The first thing Mako noticed when he stirred was the familiar smell of rotting food and decay. The source of the pungent odor was a pile of black bags that all but covered him. Waking up in an alley full of trash wasn't a completely new experience for him, he just wished he knew how he had gotten there. The last thing he remembered was talking with Bolin in the kitchen, then he suddenly felt sick to his stomach. After that, it was as if the floor had swallowed him whole.
He groaned as he shoved the bags off of him. His entire body felt weird, heavy, as if all his clothes were stuck to his skin. As he shifted in the bags, the reason he felt strange began to reveal itself.
"What the-?"
What should be his foot was instead a long arch with three thick talons on the end. The claws wiggled as he flexed his "toes." Next, he examined his hands. The slender digits had been replaced by thick, rust-colored claws similar to his toes.
"What's happened to me?"
He grabbed onto a nearby wall and wobbled to his feet. The unfamiliar limbs were like walking on tip-toes. As he took several cautious steps, something moved in his peripheral. He quickly turned to see, but whatever it was, moved with him. Was it attached to him? He reached over his shoulder and felt something protruding from his back. Carefully, he felt along the appendage until he could pull it into view. It was a wing with a long spine down it's red-hued center.
"Wings?" He needed a mirror. He needed to know what else had happened to him. A nearby window provided him a reflective surface, and he gasped at the image that greeted him. It was his face, but the ears had been replaced by large lobes and a pair of horns curved over his dark hair. Even his eyebrows were gone, replaced by thick ridges that ended in small spikes. All of it the same rust color as his hands and feet.
He slapped his cheeks several times to wake himself. It had to be a dream. Nothing else made sense. The only other explanation was that the spirits had done this to him, but why? What reason would they have to turn him into such a monstrosity. His thoughts suddenly shifted to Bolin. Had the same thing happened to his brother? If so, he had to find him.
He scanned the streets beyond the alley. Bright lights illuminated people and vehicles as they passed. However, just like his body, they were similar to what he knew but different. The Satomobiles looked sleeker, more streamlined, and the people wore odd clothes. There was no way it was Republic City. It presented him with more questions than answers. Cautiously, he stepped toward the light. Hopefully, Bolin was nearby.
As soon as he hit the sidewalk, a shrill scream forced him to cover his ears.
"Monster!"
The alert sent any nearby pedestrians into a panic.
"Monster?" Mako stumbled backwards at the sudden accusation--and directly into traffic. Vehicles honked as he dodged them. At one point, he even managed to climb over the hood of a moving car. Luck carried him to the opposite side unscathed, but that wasn't the end of his troubles. The familiar sound of sirens reached his ears. Police. However, if the crowd's initial reaction to his appearance was any indication, they weren't coming to help him. Time to run. Unfortunately, he only managed a few steps before he tripped over his own tail.
"Dammit!" As he was getting back to his feet, he realized his new form seemed better suited to be on all fours. Whatever. At this point, he couldn't be concerned about his stature. The crowd continued to scatter as he lopped down the sidewalk like an animal in search of his brother.
Tumblr media
Sorry for the pathetic background. It's a weak spot to be sure.

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.
