Where did you get it? [ Hand on a hip as she eyes The Scene (!!!) in which Korra has been caught cake-handed. ] And why are you throwing it away? It looks delicious.
It's just from this jerk. And I'm throwing it away because he's a jerk. Unless you wanna eat it. [Another shove in Asami's direction.] Either way, I'm not touching it.
[Korra's honestly kinda surprised when Asami's tone turns...almost protective? Maybe? She knows Asami's a good person, of course, but she hasn't exactly given the other girl a lot of reasons to like her, and Korra has grown enough these past few months to know it. A little part of her is happy to hear this.]
[ Expecting something worthy of getting the guy's nether regions electrocuted, she blanches when she hears something very unexpected. Sidling next to Korra, she leans on the counter too and opts for a casual tone. ]
[It's not right. How can Asami be so nice to her, after everything? Korra doesn't understand it.
But she's unspeakably grateful. As much as she loves Bolin & Mako, she hadn't realized how much she needs a friend like Asami. How much she's always needed a friend like Asami.
Damn it, she's gonna start crying. She grabs Asami in a hug, as much to hide the tears that are threatening to fall as to show her appreciation.]
[ Planning all the ways she can wound someone with their own cake, Asami's taken aback when she's suddenly supporting one very heavy Avatar, hugging back as surprise melts into affection. Even with the situation concerning Mako hanging between them unspoken, she likes Korra a lot.
It's not as if she's had many real girlfriends before, either. ]
I was so worried that something might've happened to you when I got here. [ Raising a hand, it rubs up and down a back. ] I'll be around as long as you need me.
[Korra eventually pulls back, once she's got her feelings under control. Asami's words remind her of something else she doesn't really want to think about but has to face.]
I didn't find out from the guys -- when are you from? Back home, I mean.
[Please let her be from after the fight with Amon. Korra doesn't want to have to explain about her bending again.]
[ Easing back, her hip finds the counter again. Needing to skirt a few issues, she keeps her rendition of events to the point. ]
Amon had just taken over the city, we were heading into the sewers to escape.
[ Loaning her a curious look, all too aware that she herself is already past Mako and Bolin's mental time-stamps. (It's pretty difficult not to notice as much with the former and the way he's been acting.) ]

Hold on a second! [ Hurrying over! ] Korra, who gave you cake?
no subject
Heeeeeeey. Asami. [awkward awkward SHOVES THE PLATE AT HER] Want some cake?
[Maybe if she ignores the question it will go away.]

Hands up, she refuses the offer, but her expression lights up as she points to the snack like it's a culprit all of its own. ]
You mean a boy gave this to you?
no subject
No, no, not a boy. A JERK. [THERE'S A DIFFERENCE, DAMN IT.]

What did this guy do to you, Korra?

It's not serious! He just...
She puts the cake on the counter and crosses her arms protectively, not looking Asami in the face.]
He kinda kissed me.

He kissed you and ... now you're angry at him?

[But she has to be fair. She doesn't want to be, but she has to be. She kissed Mako that same day, after all...]
I think he might've been cursed...
no subject
[ Places a hand on Korra's arm. ]
Who was it? I won't say anything to him if you don't want me to, but I'd feel better knowing which guy is making unwelcome moves on you in the future.
[ So she can put him on her To Be Shanked list. ]
no subject
His name is Li. He's just a big idiot.
