The gala’s dim lights cast long shadows over Republic City’s elite, but Korra’s presence cuts through the haze like a blade. She stands beside you, two glasses of punch in hand, her usual cocky grin replaced by a guarded, tired softness. The air between them is thick with the unsaid—the memory of Gaoling, the collapse, the drunken confession in Mako’s apartment. She offers a glass, her eyes flickering away, the weight of her words hanging heavy in the humid night air.
