[ let's play a game, bilbo said. it'll be fun, bilbo said. don't use naga, your dog is a crutch. YEAH WELL YOU KNOW WHAT.

korra would've totally won within minutes if she'd been able to use her best friend for help, but pride wouldn't let her.

but now here she is, about three days later, visibly frustrated but letting it only last for a few seconds, perking up when she finally gets the locket to work. ]

Hey, who wants to help me play a game! [ despite her broad grin, this game is super not physically demanding. really!! ] See, I lost someone, and for the past three days I've been trying to find him, but, heh, I guess he's a better hider than I thought.

[ behind her, the giant polar beardog lets out a sigh, her tail thumping lazily on the floor. ]

What? [ korra turns to face the massive animal, who picks her head up, letting out a half-bark. ] Naga, you know the rules. I can't ask you for help, but Bilbo didn't say I couldn't ask everyone else...

[ naga just fixes korra with a look that says "you're doing it again" before placing her chin on her paws. ]

... Yeah, well, no one asked you. [ and so korra turns back to the locket, still pushing a grin. ] If you wanna help me find him, he's about—um... [ she lifts a hand to her stomach... lower... hip... ah... fuck it!! ] He's really short and he's got this curly hair and really hairy feet. He kinda... looks? like a kid? But don't call him that because he's really a grumpy old man and he's kinda sensitive about that.

[ and with that, korra nods once and ends the feed!! she and naga are going to be around everywhere in the castle looking for bilbo, so if you'd like to action in this post, go right ahead!! ]

A bigger advantage than a hobbit's size?

[ JUST THE BIGGEST DEADPAN LOOK. ]

Yes. A bear can pick up on his scent.

[ You want to play the deadpan game, girl. ]

[ let's go!!!

only not really because korra is WAY too expressive for that. ]

What's your point?

I am guessing so. Could your animal not find him by smell alone? That hardly seems like much of a game to me.

[ Flat expression continues, but with a slightly raised eyebrow. ] In any case - it seems you do not think yourself capable of winning on your own.

[ you're all so mean!! ]

I'm perfectly capable of winning on my own! [ POUTS LIKE A PETULANT TWO YEAR OLD ] I just thought I'd share the fun.

The fun. Of course.

[ Oh, does he look like he's heard that a million times before. Because he has. ]

You should meet my nephew. You two would get along.

[ what!! this is fun! this is SO much fun!!

look at all the fun she's having. ]

If he's here, maybe I will.

[ Yes, he looks so entertained himself. ]

He is, though I... have not spoken to him much yet. Kíli, is his name.

That happens. It's kind of a busy place.

[ but at least she seems less frustrated than she was moments ago. ]

I'll ... keep an eye out for him.

It looks like so.

[ Though it's an entirely different reason as to why he's not spoken to Kíli much yet. ]

What is your name?

Just wait until the attacks start.

[ a pause... ]

Korra.

Thorin.

[ Answer just as short. And then his voice takes on a serious tone. ]

What attacks?
