[But he's your friend. How could you attack her, knowing it would hurt him too? That would be Korra's normal response. There's no justice in hurting innocent people, and even now, Korra knows that.
She just doesn't care. Let's talk about this later. Like the fact that his friend almost crippled her was a minor issue, something to procrastinate on. Like those months she spent recovering were no big deal.
She's died. It was scary and awful and she still has nightmares about it, but it was also largely an accident. Random chance, which is its own kind of horrifying but one Korra could move on from because she had to. It was either learn to deal with it or spend her life jumping at shadows.
What Marie did to her was so much worse than dying. What if Korra had lost her ability to walk, or the use of her arm? Would she have been able to airbend at all? Unable to bend, unable to fight, in a world where being the Avatar means nothing... what would she have been? Nothing. Marie almost finished what Amon started. And it had been her own conscious, targeted choice.]
Good.
[She settles back against Naga, not looking at him anymore. He's still not forgiven. Revenge is great and all, but when she had needed his support, he'd torn her down instead.]
