[ GOOD…… late night or super early morning, network. Witness the amazing Fire Ferrets in their natural habitat, if a bit sleep-mussed and underdressed. (Understatement, tbh.) Come on, if your pajamas aren’t “be shirtless” or “in a sports bra”, you’re just not doing things Republic City style in this weather.

The scene set in the rather large room is unnerving at best. Splashed against the background are scorch marks from recent firebending, and shadows are cast from the ripped and torn flooring — it looks like there was one hell of a fight. Off to the left, there’s a soft glow as Korra tries to heal a deep wound on her arm with her waterbending and Mako, holding a small flame in his hand for light, crouches over a dark, suspiciously person shaped thing on the floor. Next to it are two other suspiciously person shaped things, also not moving in a very “dead” fashion.

As Mako makes notes in a small logbook, he and Korra seem to be having something of a disagreement, with Korra hissing angrily and Mako trying to calm her down with steady, hushed tones. While they talk, he meticulously searches through the clothes on the things — let’s be honest, they’re corpses, three of them, lying on the bedroom floor — gathering the evidence he finds and apparently writing it down in his little book. He adds whatever he finds to a growing pile of trinkets... which at this point consists largely of knives, garotting rope, and other sketchy murderous tools. With a soft trill, the two cats who adopted Mako jump up on the bed, looking shaken and huddling protectively around a small green and gold snakelike creature. Naga, on the other hand, seems to be licking something from her lips with her long tongue, looking quite proud of herself, tail absently tapping on the mattress behind the kittens.

Bolin, looking suitably confused and sporting an oddly smug Pabu-scarf, is taking up the foreground and accepting the responsibility of having his priorities in place. Unlike some people, wow. ]


Uhhhh. Hey. So my name’s Bolin. Nice to meet you if I haven’t already met you. Nice to see you again if I have? [ You know, whichever. ] Got a quick question for anyone who could answer, it’d be great to have it cleared up: is there like a... running history of people getting a pet back for a boon, only then a month later it turns out that their pet can also grow about eight feet and tackle an assassin? Just. Just wondering.

[ He stops. Glances back at Mako and Korra. Purses his lips, and turns back. ]

Okay, so, one more question. About the assassin thing. Like… are they also a thing with a running history here?

[ in the background, the dead body rummaging and healing krew has finished their argument, and in the ensuing silence, you can hear their last snippy comments before the feed ends. ]

At least no one was kidnapped.

[ Mako says, completely deadpan. Korra’s eyes narrow and she shoots back: ]

Or arrested, huh Officer?

[ WOW, RUDE, KORRA. ]

[His voice miiiight be familiar.]

Assassins are seated in all cultures. When there are people you desire dead and quietly so, assassins seem to be viable tools for such goals.

All the same, it feels a bit foolish to reveal yourselves so quickly. The ones looking to kill you would only know to send more assassins or put in more drastic efforts.

[Hey, there's kindof! enemies, but Lancelot's still a pretty honorable guy.]

... [The armor just sort of stared at the locket.]

Still, you may yet have some time to recover. Use it adequately, so we may properly face each other on the field of battle, later.

You said when! That's basically promising that you'll face him.

I accept your challenge, lad.

Give me thy name, so it may be formal.


[Berserker knew he liked this guy for a reason! That was Redgate's Champion for you.]

[ AAAANNNNND sliding right up behind mako, giving lancelot the stink-eye over his shoulder, is korra. ]

Pal, you gotta go through us if you wanna fight him.

[ and they're gonna avoid the shit out of you until everyone canon updates and korra can metalbend ]

You sully the pride and honor of your proud ally.

He is one of the few among you capable of becoming a true hero.


[Anger seeped into the warped voice of the knight.]

First of all, you're the one who sounds like you wanna get your rocks off from a fight, how about you keep the sullying honor out of it, pal. Secondly, he didn't challenge you, and the whole hero thing is not for you to decide, and thirdly, screw off.

[personal profile] of_the_lake 2014-09-03 03:08 am (UTC)(link)
Your response is depressing. I had hope for the strength and pride of the Seelie to be greater. Aside from your ally, I've only been introduced to weakness, cowardice and deceit from your ranks.

Shirk and cower all you like.

this girl.

she has had.

sangilak: (nemesis yet:)

[ and with the night she's had, can you really blame her. ]

Heya, pal, there's no one here that's cowering! You wanna end up like one of your friends here? [ and with that she grabs the locket and swings it around to show off the corpses of the assassins, rigor not having set in yet. she focuses on the tallest of the three: a humanoid with a long neck and tail, measuring about ten feet in total. the cobra-like hood at its throat is flattened out and it looks as though its been defanged post-death. she swings the locket back on her, snarling. ] Name a time and a place, and you got it.

[ horrified, mako whips around and covers korra's mouth with his free hand, reflexively. the one over bolin's mouth drops, and he's reaching out to shut the locket off before things get even more out of hand. ]
