Korra’s Everything
Prompt: “I was going to kiss him, and I was going to regret it. But at that moment, I couldn’t bring myself to care.” A Makorra prompt given to me by aimless-melissa. (:
Set in Episode 5, right after the match with the Rabbaroos. (:
____________________________________________________________
Korra trudged up to the roof of the Probending Arena, her feet heavy.
They had just won their match against the Rabbaroos, and ordinarily, Korra would be jumping with joy.
In fact, she had been, up on the field, with Mako.
Until they made eye contact.
Then she remembered she was supposed to be mad at Mako.
‘Yeah, right. Like that was going to work,’ she thought miserably, looking out at the twinkling lights of the city.
‘Ugh,’ she thought, hitting her head against the post she was leaning on, ‘Why couldn’t this romantic crap be easy??? I was supposed to come to Republic City to train with Tenzin, but nooooooo, of course life couldn’t be that simple. I just had to get caught up with this Probending stuff and I had to fall for that stupid firebender’s rugged good looks and-‘
“We need to talk.”
Korra’s eyes widened in shock as she heard Mako come up behind her.
She was about to turn around to face him when he said, “Look. Sometimes you can be so infuriating, I-“
Korra’s heart fell.
I’d like to welcome the gazillion new followers I’ve gotten in this last week or so, all of whom are undoubtedly Korra fans. As a token of appreciation, I drew this picture of an Elvis-y Bolin kissing you.
I’d also like to say “thanks(?)” for all the new questions I’ve received. Many are fascinating, and some are downright confounding. I enjoy answering them when I can, but I wanted to let you know a couple things about the question process:
1) I’m a lot more likely to answer questions privately, because, while I don’t mind answering questions, I usually doubt that everybody that’s following me wants to know the answers I write, and I also don’t want to flood anybody’s feed with unwanted information. I’m continuing to allow anonymous questions because they’re usually the craziest and thus most entertaining to read, but the chances of me answering anonymous questions are slim at best.
2) Even if I wanted to answer spoiler-y questions (SPOILER ALERT: I don’t), or any questions about the future of the show (including what will or won’t be addressed), I wouldn’t be able to. I’d get fired, and worse, I’d be disappointing my friends. I’d also be ruining any future job prospects. Nobody wants to hire somebody that gives away their secrets. This means that I can’t tell you whether or not you ever get to find out what happened to Zuko’s mom, for example.
3) I’m a director, not a creator or writer of the show. In many cases, I don’t know the answers to your questions, but I can’t tell you that because that means that we probably haven’t addressed it yet in the second season, which would be in itself a sort of spoiler (hopefully you see how fraught with peril this whole process quickly becomes).
With all that said, I actually enjoy answering questions, so go ahead and ask, if you still have a burning desire to ask questions of a guy who’s just a cog in a well-made machine. Just don’t be mad if I refer you back to this post. And remember: Bolin loves you, baby.
I couldn’t have said this better myself!
Oh my god, I thought that was a cactus.
Ahhh, retakes… If you have been following this blog for a while, you should know that retakes are the bane of my existence. You’d be amazed at the number of technical retakes (mistakes in the animation) we have to fix in the average episode. We catch the vast majority of them, but some inevitably get through. Like this one. Ouch. Everything about retakes and the retake process hurts my soul.
Not that we ever claimed to be, but we are not perfect, and the show is not perfect. With an average of 14,500 finished drawings per show, and 12-26 shows in production at the same time, a few mistakes are bound to make it past the bleary eyes of the hard working animators and us at Nickelodeon. And many times it is just too late in the process to do anything about it, or the energy of the crew is needed to put out a bigger fire.
And with you guys dissecting this HD footage/GIF fodder frame by frame, our butts are even more exposed. We’re trying to figure out a way to get you guys to call the retakes for us, since you seem to have the time, energy, and interest to comb through everything. You guys won’t leak anything, right?
beautiful c:I did this all in one day! I’m so proud of myself =w=
Why would Mako be crying? Hm, maybe he lost his brother? Bolin? Cuz, he ain’t in the picture. But I wanted to do this because why should sunrises/sunsets lead to happy endings? There are times when you wish the sun wouldn’t come up to bring another day.
Anyway, this piece is inspired by a spontaneous photo that I took the very last hour I was in Palestine with my family. I was taking pictures at 5 AM just to remember how it looked like, and my brother-in-law comes in and said something to my hubby and then hugged and cried—so emotional that I had to sneak in a shot.
But enough with my talk. Enjoy this sad Makorra. )-:fdkjsl

This is AMAZING! Thank you for blessing this fandom.
Maggie has the power to become camouflaged. She also has mastered the ability to communicate with elks with gestures and she is able to transform any grue into glass. Maggie can force skeletons to ramble incoherently and she has a reputation for a stupendous fortitude. She wades into combat wielding a toxic sai that can force foes into another plane of existence. Tragically, Maggie suffers from being out of control during combat.
I see no problem with my weakness. In fact, I think I’m a badass.
Fiona wages war with a dangerous minigun. She likewise has learned to make duplicates of herself and she can deflect ice blasts. Shamefully, Fiona becomes woefully unskilled at listening in the presence of magic.
My weakness: Not even remotely false. Just apply it to ANYWAYS.
FUCK YES. I CAN HIGH FIVE MYSELF.
Also: Fuck you, ice. I DON’T TAKE YOUR SHIT.
Meghna has mastered the ability to spin like a whirlwind, however only while carrying her staff. She likewise has been known to create fire out of thin air and she can deflect javelins. Meghna is able to view distant locations with her mind, but can only do so once a day. She has inherited an uncommon agility and she has an amazing fortitude. Meghna has the power to read the memories of others, but only in the presence of a dog. Terribly, Meghna takes harm from exposure to diamond.
So I’m kind of like an airbender and a firebender but I have psychic abilities as well? …kind of amazing.
Navaura has mastered the ability to absorb the damage from mental attacks and use it to boost her pack of tools. She likewise can slide to any point in the universe using a wondrous assault vehicle, however this power only lasts one day at a time. Navaura developed the talent to read the memories of others, but only against a zombie. Also, she can take control of birds and she possesses the power to make duplicates of herself. Sadly, Navaura is infamous for being kind of an asshole.
AWESOME.
Blind jokes never get old.
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAH
oh god
Korra runs into Tahno, the pro-bender who had his powers stripped by Amon.
