Thanks.
[Korra feels empty. Not in a bad or barren way. It's the kind of emptiness when you've cried too much, even though she hasn't been crying -- when you've poured everything out from inside you and what's left is a cup, waiting to be filled again.
Suddenly, sharply, she wishes she could just bury her face in Naga's fur and sleep.]
I think I'm gonna go lie down for a bit.
[Half-statement, half-question -- she wants to leave, but she doesn't want Asami to think she's running away.]
