[browsofashark]

WHO: Mako, Korra, and Hei
WHAT: Threesome. Why not.

[Mako usually doesn't bother coming home early, even when he gets the chance. In fact, he generally avoids it. Living alone with your ex-girlfriend (an ex simply because she doesn't remember ever being his girlfriend) is awkward. And uncomfortable. And yes, despite both their best efforts, he can hear her masturbating.

So seriously, it's better for everyone involved that he just be at home as little as possible (even if he can't bring himself to actually move out). But today he's tired and he doesn't want to find ways to kill time until it's safe to go home. He just wants to go home and get some sleep.

He sighs and opens the front door.]

Korra, I'm back. [No response. Is she still at the Welcome Center? He thought she had off today... Then he hears her scream.]

KORRA!

[He's rushing up the stairs and towards her voice without a second thought. It doesn't matter how awkward things are between them, he won't hesitate to act if she's in trouble. Though he may want to start verifying that she's actually in trouble.]

Comments

[anatural]

Yeah. [It was great fulfilling her personal fantasy, but she wouldn't want it all the time. Too much coordination, too much pausing and adjusting and acclimating. She likes the intimacy and flexibility of one-on-one.] But it was nice trying something new.

[She hesitates for a moment, then reaches up to pull him down for a kiss.]

[mortemscintilla]

[ There's a beat, before Hei lets himself sink into the kiss. Makes it soft, sipping, almost trancey. But under its surface is a bite of his own inevitable worry, which lingers even as he gathers her in closer, slotting their legs together in a heavy, damp-skinned weave. They've done something that seems irrevocable, half-impulsive, half-planned. Worse, a point he's been circling around in his head has suddenly drawn him in, collapsing his careful distance. ]

[ Yet, sifting through his internal layers, he can't tell if anything's really shifted. Touched, altered. It is hard to distinguish. Points, angles, minute details -- do they matter? Things rarely look different when you're this close, even after great change. ]

[anatural]

[Has anything really changed between them? Korra wouldn't think so. Between her and Mako, yes, but she & Hei have always pushed sexual boundaries together. This is just an extension of that. (Focusing on that also makes it easier to not think about how things have changed between her and Mako.) She tangles her fingers in his hair and sinks into him. Not burning or lustful, but warm & contented. It's an expression of pure affection and happiness she doesn't normally get to indulge in with him.]
