[Korra is perfectly relaxed on their trip to the restaurant, even with the subtle hint of electricity at her neck. She's worked hard and found a way to counteract his charge using her own abilities; if he tried to shock her, he'd be in for a nasty surprise. Nobody, not even Amber, knows she can do this. It's one of her backup weapons in case of emergency.
The fact that he actually takes her to a nice restaurant is a surprise and a sign...of something. The level of security here would make things complicated for other Syndicate operatives, but it'd be nothing to Amber's power. Is this Hei's way of signaling that he'd like to defect? Korra can't tell. She knows Amber would be delighted if he did, but it would complicate her own life.
She sets those thoughts aside for now.]
Not all of us can fit a whole cow in our left leg. [She orders a juice from the waiter and waits for Hei to make his next move. And/or order.]
