Video; Joint post dated March 22nd

[The feed turns on to show Korra, smiling a deviously broad smile (those who know her probably know that smile means she’s up to something) and she holds a finger up to her lips before she whispers.]

Okay you guys. I need you to tell Mako that the network doesn’t actually bite and he can use it to talk to people.

[Then she turns around and happily exclaims:] Oh good, the tea’s ready. Thanks, Mako. See, isn’t he a gracious host? [That grin she has on is sinful.]

W-- Korra, turn that off.

[he sets the tray down pointedly, looking between her and the console, obviously caught off guard and not sure what to do]

In a minute. [Not even a minute, she fully plans to keep it on as long as possible.] Why don't you come over here and try it? [Not that she's giving him a choice since she's taking both cups of tea over to the console.]

I already told you I know how to use it. [he sits down, and focuses on her] We could've kept this conversation between us, c'mon, turn it off.

[and then he turns to the camera to give it an Intense Mako Stare (tm).]

We were talking about the network, so we should include the network. [She says it like it's the most practical, logical thing in the world.] So anyone who doesn't know, I'm Korra and this is Mako. He's been here for months but none of you probably recognize him because he never uses the network. So feel free to say hi to him! [Totally treating him like a new arrival. She's not sorry at all. Feel free to bug Korra too.]

[yeah, he. he figures. Any reputation he had of being a cold SOB is gone for the moment]

Yeah, but I'm not good of thinking up questions.

[Korra, she loves you. Honestly and truly.]

Why, yes, Mako. As a matter of fact, I can.

You pick: cards or coins?
browbeater: Ooooooh it's too real. (The motion of the ocean!!)

That sounds nothing like me.
browbeater: Ooooooh it's too real. (I could have done that.)

[you're. infuriating.]

[sigh]


Cards.
backwordscompatible: (job well done)

I can do cards.

[She raises up one hand, and snaps her fingers...making a deck of blue-backed cards appear.]

Though this might be kind of hard to do through the screen.

That's okay, though. I can improvise.

[Shuffling, she holds the deck up, face down, and starts slowly flipping through them.]

Just tell me when to stop.
browbeater: (All I hear is "blah blah blah.")

[he’s watching the cards, looking for the trick. He’d seen a few card tricks on the streets, along with a few fortune tellers. So this sort of magic show isn’t completely new to him. But after a minute--]

Okay, you can stop.
backwordscompatible: (hacking)

[At the word "stop", she freezes mid-flip, then takes the top part of the deck and holds it up so that Mako can see the bottom card. Six of Hearts.]

Alright.

Memorize the card, but don't tell me what it is.
browbeater: Cuddles? Who needs cuddles? (So when's the after-sex workout?)

[she barely has time to say that, before he nods]

Alright, got it.
backwordscompatible: (ready)

Don't get ahead of me. You're ruining the moment.

[As she says this, she shuffles the cards, takes a step back...and throw them at the monitor screen.]
browbeater: Ooooooh it's too real. (That's either horrible or amazing.)

[... what sort of magic trick is this, Zatanna, seriously. Mako leans back just a bit, since there is a screen between them]
backwordscompatible: (peripheral glance)

[The best kind of trick, obviously. It was unexpected, wasn't it?]

[It also worked; if Mako looks closely, he'll notice that one of the cards had stuck to the monitor. Very specifically, the Six of Hearts.]


Well?
