[Promise not to close yourself off. I want to know what's wrong. No matter what it is. No matter what. All right. Fine. What had he expected? What? Come on, Korra, tell me your feelings about not being the Avatar anymore. Let us discuss them in an clear and rational manner. No biggie, right? Naaaaaaaw. It's only part of your identity.
How do I fix this? How can I-
He hates when girls cry, but it's worse when it's Korra. It packs the same wallop as a right hook to the stomach.
How can I make this better?
He can't. He knows he can't. If Amon took her bending...they'd all been at the rally. They'd all been at the Pro-bending finals. They'd seen what the Equalist leader is capable of; his technique results in permanent damage. Permanent.
Bolin can't give her back her bending, but he can pull her close, wrap both arms around her and hold her because somebody has to. Might as well be her best friend, in the absence of...others (he thinks of Mako, and it hurts more). Friends are there to lean on, aren't they? To hold you up if you've lost the ability to stand on your own?]
