“What?” The metal bender looked over the man, trying to place where she recognized him from. He seemed familiar somehow, though if they had interacted in the past, it has been minimal. 

“You were affiliated with the Avatar, yes?”

Korra didn't blend in on the streets of Republic City. She could feel herself sticking out, in her torn clothes, with her tangled hair that was clumped with dirt from spending too many nights on the ground as she ran from the Red Lotus. She was most worried about what people would think about her tattooed forehead -- the mark of a combustion bender. Would everyday people know what power she had?

Her stomach growled. How long had it been since she ate? Korra could hardly remember, hardly think straight. Stealing seemed like her only option. Plus, having grown up with the world's most notorious criminals, she had gotten pretty good at it.

However-- she didn't really care about herself anymore. She had no one. Who cares if she stole, if she got caught?

So instead of trying to pull off an elaborate scheme to steal food, Korra just took some from a street vender and began to run.

"Officer! Officer -- that girl is a thief!" 

Great -- there was a cop around. Just what Korra needed.

3 Song Playlist for Mako and Korra

Surrender — Civil Twilight

May I — Trading Yesterday

Let Her Go — Passenger

{ The first one tho — it’s lyrics are “He was made of earth and fire. She was made of water. Their love will never be free, not until they surrender” and I think that’s perfect }

{ I actually found this song through some post that was going around forever ago about Makorra and it was this version -- I haven't heard other ones but I'm going to look into it asap }

♟:Patching up a wound

Compassion was something Korra learned not to have towards those outside of her family. Loyalty was reserved to those who deserved her loyalty and no one else.

So why was she helping this stranger?

Something tugged a nerve inside Korra as she saw Prince Wu’s guard bent over, holding his burned arm to him. Lava hurt worse than fire in Korra’s experience; it stuck around a lot longer than flickering flames.

As the Red Lotus ran ahead, Korra fell back, her blue eyes fixed to the injured body guard. It wasn’t their intention to kill or even to hurt innocent civilians such as him. It was her duty to help.

"Hey, please — let me look," she said with a gentle voice, her hands held up in a surrender as if to try to persuade him she wouldn’t hurt him.

✑ describe something they like without naming it

   A number of people that mean a lot to her and a few that mean the world. She can’t picture herself without them and her growth in strength, maturity, and as the avatar and a person wouldn’t have gotten to where it was if she had been on her own. She couldn’t thank them enough if she’d tried. She doesn’t like them. She loves them and appreciates them.
