[A broad smile is on Korra’s face when she turns on the video feed. She’s leaning to one side of the chair and looking pleased as punch.]
I’ll be reopening the dojo in the Wood Sector and I need some teachers, mentors, instructors- whatever you want to call yourselves, to teach people that want to learn. Any fighting style will do, but if it’s martial arts; then all the better.
If you’re interested in lessons, get in touch with me here or privately. I don't know how much lessons are going to be yet, but I'll try to keep it low.
[There's a pause where Korra considers her next words and her smile fades a little.]
If you're half as good as Dinah Lance is [Not was.] then I need to talk you.
[Four months of training with Dinah isn't enough for Korra. She wants to dig in further into the various styles she was mastering, and this is the only way she knows of to find someone that can help her do just that.]

Great! That’s exactly what I was hoping you’d say. I don’t have any boxing teachers, and the kedan could really get into it; that and I think it’s a popular sport with the other foreigners too.
[Yes, she is a bonafide sports fan if he enthusiasm is anything to go off of.]
Mind if I put your name on the list for teachers taking students?
action;
[ Ha ha ha, yeah, he's so funny. ]
Oh! Of course! Just uhh put, uh, em... Wild Tiger, I guess?
[ He's already met Korra with his mask on, so it's not like he can really go back to being Kotetsu, especially with Barnaby working here as well. Ugh, sometimes it really sucked to have a secret identity! ]
action;
[Unable to keep the teasing tone out of her rhetorical question, Korra gives a chuckle to show she’s kidding.]
Just don’t expect only guys to sign up for it. It’s a lot like pro-bending’s style and let me tell you, there’s some girls that can really take to it.
[Proudly:] Myself included.
action;
[ Too bad your harmless teasing doesn't work on the woefully insecure. ]
That's fine! Girls need to learn self-defense! But, eh, uh, you know it's not for fighting, right? It's for defending. They can't be going out hitting people! It's to save, not destroy.
action;
Sure, self-defense. But it can be for fun too. I mean, that's what sports are all about.
[Her professional athlete is showing.]
action;
[ And do they pay if you win? Not that he condones sending kids into a ring to hit each other. But it's true. It is a sport. Hopefully one with benefits... ]
action;
Back when Dinah was in charge it didn’t. It’d interrupt the student’s lessons though.
[A place that did have it sounds ideal to Korra, any kind of sport would do at this point since there weren’t enough people to do pro-bending properly. She even picked up basketball from Jim and occasionally practices with Mako.
But something that gets out some aggression…]
You know, if I had the money I’d see about getting a building just for that kind of thing.
action;
[ Maybe he can train his students to kick Barnaby's students' butts! Bahaha, it would be beautiful! ]
action;
I just know this dojo’s been open to anyone wanting to use it, so, I’m using it. But I’ll give you a heads up if I find someone to help me out.
action;
[ It's not like he wants to stick around and wait for this pipe dream to come true anyway. The sooner he and Barnaby can get home, the better. ]
So, uh, when should I, you know, come in or...?
action;
Once I get all the teachers’ names, then I’ll make a schedule for you all to work with. You know, whatever hours you want. Then I can post it on the network and we can officially open up and take in students.
action;
action;
I’ll give you my old schedule then. [Until she and Mako were very comfortable with each other, Korra usually slept in until noon, or later.]

[ His head swivels around the dojo, looking for the blond in question. He's pretty sure his partner waited for him. ]
Well! Looks like I'll be seeing you again real soon, then!
[ With a wave to Korra, he wanders off in search of Barnaby and a hot shower. ]
