Korra couldn’t help but smirk as she watched Desna and Asami stare down at the pai sho board in front of them.
“Damn. You are good.” Desna muttered as Asami placed a piece onto the board, completing a harmony around the board.
“I didn’t know you even could play.” Korra stated, earning an odd chuckle.
“Eska and I played as children….we had to do something to pass the time.” Desna retorted before glancing toward the clock before yawning.
“I’m retiring for the night. Goodnight.” He stated, heading toward the room he shared with his sister.
“I should as well…goodnight.” Eska stated, an odd smirk on her face as she retreated.
“Well that was…Bizarre.” Asami stated, earning a laugh from Korra.
“They are bizarre.” The avatar corrected, helping Asami put the pieces away.
I want to thank you for putting up with me for the past month…I’m sure I drove everyone at air temple island nuts.” She added after a few minutes before sighing and smiling at the engineer.
“You can be a pain but I understand. I know that all of this has taken a toll on you.” Asami replied, brushing off the apology.
Korra only smiled and leaned back, closing her eyes tiredly.
“You are way too nice. I was a jerk when I first met you….I stole your boyfriend and snapped your head off on countless occasions but you still take care of me.”
To her surprise Asami gripped her hand gently.
“Hey…we agreed that whatever that was with Mako wouldn’t come between us.” The engineer reminded her gingerly, causing the other teen to blush and glance down.
“Yeah…I’m sorry though.” The avatar sighed before squeezing her friend’s hand before adding “why don’t we go on to bed? You still look tired.”
