Korra krew my beloved. Recently finished a rewatch for the billionth time. I miss them already.

How I be looking defending LOK (I genuinely love this show almost as much as ATLA I don’t get the hate 😭)

When I feel upset, I come to Tumblr and go through my list of liked posts.

I always feel better afterwards.

Nothing like a good ship art, text post, or just plain chaotic time.

To all the artists, textposters, and people with actually funny ideas, thank you so much for the countless times you've improved my mood.

Summary: As a grand luxury liner carries Republic City's elite - and its forgotten masses - toward the South Pole, Asami Sato and Korra, privileged heiresses, General Iroh, a forgotten prince, and Mako, a working-class boxer and his exuberant brother Bolin, find their lives colliding across class lines and are each forced to reckon with the weight of expectation, the cost of freedom, and the lives being chosen for them - unaware that they are already aboard a ship bound for disaster.

Author’s Note: The sinking of the Titanic is a hyper-fixation of mine, and after a recently renewed interest in it, I've decided to write an AU about it that hopefully provides a realistic portrayal of what actually happened on the night of April 15, 1912.

This fic will be a blend of the 1997 film and the real event. Characters in the story are inspired by real passengers and characters from the film, though no Legend of Korra character is an exact overlay of any real passenger or movie character. I'm doing my best to integrate 1910s high society with Legend of Korra's worldbuilding, but in many places, the world will lean American/British.

And yes, the ship will sink. People will die. It will be tragic, just as the sinking was. Consider this your warning for what lies ahead.

Title is inspired by Taylor Swift's "my tears ricochet".
