Video; Joint post dated March 22nd

[alphatar]

[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.]

Did he walk in on you during your first time? [She can’t help biting the inside of her cheek. It’s something she wanted to ask when they were together

[browbeater]

What? No! The only one of us that ever made that mistake was me. [he sets aside the towel. And he's trying to not blush at that.]

Why are we even talking about this?

[alphatar]

[That blush isn't easy to fight back, and her grin only turns devious at seeing it.]

Because it's one of the few things we haven't. Besides, you know about my first time [He was sort of there.] so fair's fair.

[It's a balance in a sense.]

[browbeater]

No, that is not fair.

[browbeater]

The only thing I'm telling you is that I didn't have time to worry about stuff like that most of my life.

And we are officially done with this subject.

[alphatar]

Completely fair. [She's letting it end on her note, tongue sticking out slightly before she draw it back into her smile. She'll bug him about the "most of my life" part some other time.]

Now aren't you glad you had me over for tea? [She's insufferable, she knows.]

[browbeater]

Seriously questioning if this is ever gonna happen again.

[but it's the most they've talked... in awhile. And he doesn't seem to mind her being there.

Despite what he says.]

[alphatar]

If you don't come up with an answer, detective, I'll supply you with a yes. [That network post and their little conversation put her in a good mood and it shows in that smile.]

Trust me, next time it'll be just tea. [She wasn't kidding about the arranging the coming network posts. Unless he just kept avoiding it like usual.]

[browbeater]

You're never gonna get an answer out of this cop.

[alphatar]

[Help. She's probably the only one who actually likes this stuff.]

I have ways of making you talk. [Maybe she wrote that one down a while ago, maybe not.]

[browbeater]

Yeah, and you already used them.

Now c'mon, I don't want to stay in all day.
