“I want to smudge your lipstick,” Korra muttered, fixated on the exquisite give of the flesh under her fingertip, a little lost in the bittersweet memory.

Happy Korrasami day!! Here’s a little treat ☺️

Where The Snow Takes Us - Epilogue

[kuvirasbitch]

If by some chance you are in the TLOK fandom and among the Korrasami shippers and HAVENT read Where the Snow Takes us by @asamiontop , go read it RIGHT. NOW.

I started reading it when it was first published and followed along through the years. I’ve re read it twice, and just re read it for the third time after it was recently completed.

This story is so wonderfully written and really captures the beauty that is Korra and Asami. WtSTU holds an extremely special place in my heart and I feel so grateful for stories like these. It’s so well done it almost feels illegal to read for free. This fic is the type to leave you feeling emotionally hungover after you finish. It’s just that good. The yearning, the angst, the love. ITS. SO GOOD. My roman empire fr.

PLEASE GO READ. READ EVERYTHING ELSE BY @asamiontop FOR THAT MATTER!!!!! TALENT SEEPS OUT OF EVERY SINGLE FIC!! ♥️

Where the Snow Takes Us...thoughts??

I caught up/finished this....AMAZING fic...

I have NOTHING but high praises for this story. Thank you so much author for providing us your fantastic story.

99% of the time I had the BIGGEST smile on my face while reading this. The Love and Care of their characters just...breaks through your screen and immediately takes root in your mind.

(more under the cut) (mostly just me rambling)

I'm gonna try to be vague JUST IN CASE.

The 1% was me fucking CRYING. FUCK. I mentioned it before but the entirety of the scene where they go to the airport together KILLED ME. It legit brought up the time where I had to go through something similar to that and ugh. I forgot those....powerful feelings and those memories and feelings (and story) CLUNG to my damn head all day.

The pining was expected honestly. lol. makes sense. I just didn't really expect the length of it. it is (currently) 35 chapters long and I expected some length before something lol. What i didn't know is that this story, essentially, has seasons.

i THINK I can boil it down to 3 or 4, depending on how you view story beats.

Season 1 was probably my favorite. It sets up everything. Everything you WANT in a slow burn and honestly met all expectations in those regards. The author also *did the thing* where they put the title in the story.

I hated season 2. NOT because it was bad or poorly written or whathaveyou. It was the entirety of the situation. The pain it caused me lol.

[SMALL SPOILER: The connection it had with the real series kinda hit me in the face once I kinda realized. The 3 years. the letters. it was honestly really well done]

Season 3 just fucking melts your heart and kicks ass. And I HAVE to spoil this because of the immense feelings I had. BUT KORRA WINNING THE OLYMPICS. I HONESTLY CHEERED I HONESLTY CRIED. THE BIGGEST SMILE ON MY DUMB FACE. I WAS SO PROUD OF IT ALL. One of my favorite scenes had one of my absolute favorite lines in it. I left a comment that was just me screaming lol. (the author was probably confused when they read it lol)

"A few clouds traveled lazily across the blue, blissfully ignorant of the life changing events that had just transpired below. Just as they’d done eight years ago,..."

FUCK. THAT'S GOOD.

And while I said season 1 was my favorite, season 3 is probably the most fulfilling portion of the story to me.

Season 4 (maybe? depending on how you look at it lol) is where we are left off. We are dealing with reality checks. We're dealing with the, in my opinion, the must surreal amount of realism, in the non fiction sense. It slaps you in the face. lol.

And we're left on a different kind of cliff hanger. No real life or death scenarios or a "will she say yes" like deal. But one that. pricks your brain on what the possibilities be. While it's more than likely resolved, i kinda see how it can be turned (even though there's 2 chapters left lol) but all that's left after all of this is what's next for our favorite couple.

honestly, after my dumb ramblings all that's really really left to say is that I am GLAD I've read this. I know that I can't do Roll with the Punches, the fucking hurt I experienced from Where the Snow Takes Us, I would imagine, would utterly be eclipsed with RWTP. In this story, the trip to the airport, took me about a day to get over it. lol.

The author has a real talent with their writing. The moods they can capture, the characters, their individual stories, the scenes come to life I tell you.

If you're reading this still. I'm sorry for my dumb ramblings and thank you so much for doing so. Read it if you haven't already. Give it props, leave comments, share it.

My only complaint....there's no more snow. put it back. there's no more snow to take them.

YA BOY FINALLY POSTED THE FIC

[persnickety-doodles]

"...Asami was treated to a gilded, shifting display of emerald and jade streaking across the northern sky. The darkened waters of the lake reflected the silent dance of light above them, enhancing the mystical effect tenfold. It was probably a trick of the imagination, but it felt like the entire forest held its breath as color exploded above and before them. Their surroundings fell quiet, more than they had been, as Asami breathed a hushed 'wow,' and slumped solemnly back against the cushions to gape at the heavens. The ethereality persisted as the brilliance took on a life of its own, dimming and flashing at random to a silent, unpredictable rhythm." ~Where the Snow Takes Us (Ch. 44) by @asamiontop
