SEND ME A ” ♗ ” AND MY CHARACTER WILL APOLOGIZE TO YOURS AFTER HAVING A TERRIBLE VERBAL FIGHT WITH THEM.

Mako was ashamed of himself, for the things he had said and the way he had acted. He and Korra were no strangers to fighting with each other - that was part of their natural dynamic - but it was rare for their fights to get so heated, or end so badly. This wasn’t something that could simply blow over with time. Something needed to be done, or things would fester and putrefy until they exploded into an even worse argument - one with even graver consequences.

So it was that Mako found himself forced to swallow his pride and stand before a still-visibly-angry Korra, wringing his hands nervously while trying desperately to find the right words to apologize. 

Mako bit his lip and gulped. It was taking every ounce of willpower he had just to look Korra in the eye, to say nothing of keeping himself from bolting out the door.

“I- I want to say I’m sorry,” he began. “Those things I said - I didn’t mean them. I was angry at you, and I let myself get carried away by that. I regret every word that came out of my mouth when we had that fight, and the thought that something I said hurt you - I can’t stand it. I care about you, Korra, and I don’t want us to stay mad at each other. It doesn’t feel right. I hope you can forgive me, and that we can lay this thing to rest.”

   For the time being, Korra wants nothing to do with Mako. She’s still furious for what he’d said, out of anger or not; it still hurt. It seems, from the way Korra’s thinking, that maybe Mako and her really are better as friends only. They fought more than they didn’t and it’s always stressed her out. There is one thing that bothers her more than anything at this moment in time and it’s not what Mako said but how he said it. 

- You can’t sit here and act like you’re the greatest avatar this world’s ever known, Korra! Even I know that you still have a lot to learn and right now, you aren’t even acting like you care! About anything! -

   She breathes out heavily in anger, recalling his words before she remembers storming out of the room after saying a few stabbing words of her own; insulting him in return. She wanted to earth bend him through the wall at that time.

   She’s calmer now but the anger is clearly still there and she hears him approaching, her arms crossed over one another. There’s a frown on her face when his apology begins but her eyes lift from the corner of the ground to look at him as he speaks. 
   She hears him out, her furious and stiffened posture cooling down and loosening up. 

❝ I wanted to shove you through a wall.. ❞

   She admits that in shame.
❝ I’m not mad.. as much. But it still kind of hurt you know? That’s.. always been a touchy thing for me and hearing it come from you like that really.. bothered me. But I accept your apology.. And I just hope that you’ll accept mine as well.. I didn’t mean anything I said either. I.. couldn’t stand it if I’d said something out of line and completely ruined our relationship. You’re part of team avatar and if you stopped just because of some stupid fight we’d had, I wouldn’t really be able to forgive myself. ❞

   Her demeanor’s changed now and she meets his gaze, a small but heavily apologetic smile resting on her lips.
❝ So.. we can put this behind us now, right? ❞
