[ Okay, it was sort of funny at first. There was a wry smile on Hei's face that wavers and fades entirely as he becomes cognizant of those familiar undercurrents in the air. He's never, he knows, looked at Korra the way Mako is right now: such a soft, avid affection, as if she's too good to be true. His own gaze is never like that: there's always a distance even in its rawness, no tenderness but a quiet amusement, an abasement and secrecy. It's easy for him to taunt her because he knows her all through -- softest bits and sharpest edges. Because she can't fool him and shouldn't try. ]
[ But Mako ... It's like he sees her as something shining and near-perfect. A miracle, not a pretty puzzle to dismantle and piece together at whim. ]
[ The rush of regret nearly pulls him under. If he were without the desire that lends him, right now, such a fierce exoskeleton, he knows he might collapse. ]
[ Shaking it off, he manages, in his mildest tone of voice, ]
I think ... there's one thing she'd like first.
[ Slipping his hand between Korra's thighs, fingers gentle in the damp curls as both permission and apology, he uses his thumb and pointer to part her lips, exposing the pink frill of her sex and the taut nub of her clit. A test for Mako -- as much as a way to get Korra revved-up and juicy. Seeing how much of that characteristic prudishness the boy will shed. ]
