I’M GLAD THAT KORRASAMI WILL BE THE SPOTLIGHT OF THE COMICS
BUT I NEED ZHURRICK. I NEED TO SEE *THEM* AFTER THE WAR AND THE WEDDING.

OH MY GOSH! KORRA COMICS! THERE’S GONNA BE KORRA COMICS. I MIGHT GET TO SEE VARRICK AND ZHU LI AGAIN. MAYBE. HOPEFULLY. BUT ALSO... KORRA COMICS. YAY.

“Of course he is. You’ll keep quiet about this, I assume?”
Zhu Li observed Kuvira carefully. “What reason would I have to tell anyone?” she asked, her voice emotionless and her expression blank.
lapis-lazhuli answered your question:
Weird question
she kinda seems like neither, she’s too calm and collected to be either of them. her devotion to varrick is kinda similar to pearl’s devotion to rose quartz, but then you’ll have to do varrick = rose quartz, which is… yyyyyeah
Hmm, I see your point, but I guess I was tending towards a Pearl due to the fan theory that there are different ‘models’ of Gems. Multiple versions of the same Gem, with similar roles and personalities, but who are still unique individuals. Pearl in particular is interesting, because in the episode ‘The Return’, Jasper calls her a “lost, defective” Pearl, so many have speculated that the more excitable elements of her personality are considered unusual for her kind. So while I agree Zhu Li doesn’t have much in common with ‘our’ Pearl, she might have something in common with ‘Pearls’ in general, if that makes any sense?
Fair point about Rose thing, though. If I do go with that idea, I’ll have to go out of my way to avoid that comparison, because…creepy
Honestly, Zhu Li actually reminds me more of Garnet. It may just be because they’re both such stoic characters that occasionally have great/line moments and really seem to just kinda roll with the craziness.
if youre gem-ifying the lok characters i think zhu li and varrick should have a fusion called moonstone because, you know, zhu li MOON, iknik blackSTONE varrick..
Okay, that is amazing. If I actually find a way to incorporate in Zhu Li/Varrick fusion, that is 100% what they are going to be.

Baatar groaned as his eyes fluttered open. “Zhu Li? What did Varrick do this time?”
“My employer had little to do with your current state, Commander Baatar. There was an attack on the train, remember? Corporal Bolin has taken care of most of the threats. The Great Uniter is still in negotiations with this head-of-state.” She found a chair to drop him onto and examined him closely. She flashed a light in his eyes, then she stopped and checked his pulse. Then, she checked his reflexes. “Are you feeling any pain, Commander?” She held up three fingers. “How many fingers am I holding up?”

My part for the next collab, this time Avatar themed~ I chose Varrick as he’s my favourite character. You can color it if you want, just show me the result :)

Oh my gosh. I love Varrick’s look here. I can just imagine the scene, too. Varrick has insisted on taking notes, for once. Zhu Li is unsure but decides to let him. He spends the whole time not only not taking any notes whatsoever but constantly flirting and making seductive comments linked loosely to what she is saying while he looks at her with his bedroom eyes.
“You’re not taking notes anymore.” After all is said and done. LOL

Zhu Li approached Kuvira with quick, purposeful steps. She bowed lowly. “I have a full report on the progress of the superweapon for you, Great Uniter. I can give you a run-down of the highlights as well as some of the setbacks we are currently facing. Since I am here, I must also ask if there is anything else you require me to assist you with?”
Kuvira sat in her office on the train, elbows to the desk and eyes buried in her work. Battle plans, strategies, politics, documents of their research, and compilations of any of the four - poured in a scattered mess across her desk. She shuffles through each parchment, picking them up and tossing them aside moments later when they are no longer of use to her.
After organizing the bulk of the papers into a pile, she feels a sting between her eyes, and pinches her fingers to the bridge of her nose to soothe the dull ache. The door clicks and her emerald eyes turn upward, noticing Zhu Li’s entrance. She curls a gloved finger towards herself, beckoning her subordinate to the desk.
“Hand me the report,” she groans, taking the files from Zhu Li’s hands herself and placing them atop her newest pile. The Great Uniter brings her palms to her forehead and sighs, even the sight of the small black letters on the parchment irritating the stinging pain. “I don’t suppose you would have a remedy for head aches, would you?”
Zhu Li observed all the paperwork on the Great Uniter’s desk, then the Great Uniter herself. Perhaps the headache was little wonder. “I know several but only one that works. I will fetch it for you, Great Uniter. In the meantime, perhaps a break from your paperwork? If necessary, I can organize the rest myself and present it to you in a manner that may be less headache-inducing for you.” It wasn’t that Zhu Li cared that the Great Uniter was suffering, but she needed to keep up appearances.
Bringing a remedy probably would have been a great opportunity to poison the woman, but it was not an opportunity Zhu Li would take. There was too much risk involved. No, it was better to continue forward with her original plans. She bowed when she left the office.
She returned only moments later with a tray containing a teapot, teacup, and little sandwiches. She poured the tea. Then, she set the tray on Kuvira’s desk. “This is a bitter herbal tea. It should help, Great Uniter.” And it would. Zhu Li was nothing if not a great assistant.
