So, how's it going with the tall, dreamy Firebender-boy? You've been spending a lot of time together lately.
Oh yeah, tell us all about the magical romance.
What? Listen to you two. I'm not interested in Mako or any romantic stuff. Besides he's all into that prissy, beautiful, elegant rich girl. But let's just pretend for a second I am interested in him; What would I do?
Ooh. I just read an historical saga where the heroine fell in love with the enemy general's son, who's supposed to marry the princess. You should do what she did.
Tell me.
She rode a dragon into battle and burned down the entire country. Then she jumped into a volcano. It was so romantic.
Eh?
No, no, no! The best way to win a boy's heart is to brew a love potion of rainbows and sunsets that makes true lovers sprout wings and fly to a magical castle in the sky, where they get married and eat clouds with spoons and use stars as ice cubes in their moonlight-punch. Forever and ever and ever!
The volcano is starting to make more sense to me now. [a laugh is heard and Korra turns to see Pema] Oh, hey, Pema. How long where you standing there?
Long enough... but trust me, I know what you're going through. Years ago, I was in the exact same situation... with Tenzin.
Daddy was in love with someone else before you?
That's right.
So what'd you do?
Well, for the longest time, I did nothing. I was so shy and scared of rejection... but watching my soul-mate spend his life with the wrong woman became too painful. So, I hung my chin out there and I confessed my love to Tenzin. And the rest is history.
Wowww!
