[Mako thinks he's seen a lot in his short life, but nothing quite prepares him for. Well.

This.

Being told he's fictional? Just some stupid story for other people to enjoy? He doesn't even want to think about that right now, not when a very real, very terrifying threat is looming over him. Or was, in any case. Something's wrong with his bending, but fire is still fire and it seems like these things don't particularly like what he's packing.

Another shot of firebending, and he takes off, finding a place he can slide into and hide for the moment.

Maybe this is just a crazy dream brought on by, well. Everything happening in his life.

He looks up again after catching his breath, checking to make sure none of those things followed him to get revenge when--] Korra!

[He sounds absolutely relieved.]

[And there she is, crammed away in the same hidey hole he's taken refuge in, because frankly, running away and hiding is a lot easier than actually fighting when you can barely produce a single flame. Korra's more than relieved to see him, but they are in a pretty precarious situation here so when he shouts her name, she totally scoots close to clamp a hand over his mouth and effectively shoosh his butt.]

Not so loud! [She's... pretty loud herself, in all honesty. Whoops.

Buuut it seems nothing has followed him or is lurking nearby, so...

Uh. Proximity. Right. Gonna fix that now and pretend not to be embarrassed.]

Sorry, sorry. I guess this place has made me a little jumpy.

[She's close. Too close. And her hand is over his mouth, and really. Does she have to be that loud in his ear? But he's glad that she's here, that he's found her, and can be content with her freaking out over him being loud.

Not because of any reason other than he's glad he found a friend.

He glances away from her, ignoring the way his face heats up. He can just blame that on overexertion if it's brought up.]

Considering what I've just run into? I don't blame you.
