[ Hei leans against the wall, stretching his legs along the worn booth seat, and glances at her. She's a little rumpled, but his look is full of a lazy uncomplicated pleasure in her presence. The bracelet was just a token -- outfitted with a tracker -- since he had no idea how she'd take the gesture. Buying someone gifts is so human. Especially when it's not calculating or transactive in nature. Some people buy modest gifts; some people buy extravagant ones. ]

[ Ordinarily, Hei prefers to keep his in the range of practical. But there's very little he can give Korra, that she'd be happy to use. Only one thing comes close: helping her find some way to get her bending back. But he knows nothing about her world -- much less about Avatars or Chakras. ]

[ Dryly, he says, ]
You're tricky to think up gifts for.
