i don’t like shipping

There sure are many problems going around in Republic City. Oh boy, I can’t wait to see what Korra’s going to do about

“I thought everyone in this city was living it up.” -Korra
Social/economic gaps, anyone?
CHILDHOOD HOMELESSNESS??
Protests that might lead to civil unrest?
Crime/Triads?
Bender/Nonbender oppression??
Political corruption?
maybe even some unfair working conditions??
underpaid jobs??
probending corruption?
OR MY FAVORITE: AMON AND THE EQUALISTS??
rant on shipping, mako and lok under the “read more”

note: if you want to reblog this, you should probably reblog it as a text post, not a link.

oh.. so some of those were only mentioned for about a couple minutes in a single episode and then never touched upon again?

that’s okay, because i admit that they were a bit tangential to the plot, although i find homelessness and working conditions interesting. what about the main points of the story?

the equalist thing was discredited as soon as amon turned out to be waterbendin’ noatak?

even though there was blatant oppression from both benders and nonbenders?

well ok then maybe you could concentrate on some other problems

you know, people living in the city problems

no?

but there’s an entire episode

dedicated
to
this
WHY DID I EVEN
GET MY HOPES

I JUST DON’T EVEN
YOUR APOLOGY
UGHH
ARE YOU TRULY SORRY FOR WHAT YOU DID TO HER
OR ARE YOU SORRY YOU GOT CAUGHT
HEY
HEY
MAKO
DO YOU EVEN REMEMBER WHAT THIS GIRL DID
NO IT WASN’T ONLY FOR YOU AND THE GIRL(KORRA) WHO DISLIKED HER BEFORE THIS EPISODE
IT WAS FOR THE ENTIRE CITY
OH AND REMEMBER
JUST LET THIS SPEAK FOR ITSELF
OH JUST YELL AT HIM ALREADY
OH RIGHT, REMEMBER THIS?? “she’s gonna need you” or something
you don’t
korra doesn’t either
grabbin’ the goods
mako aren’t you powerful
resisting his bloodbending
more powerful than aang
who has to go into avatar state to even move
AND MAKING LIGHTNING IS SUPPOSEDLY DIFFICULT and mako’s bloodbent while he’s doing it ok
not gonna question that because he’s a perfect character
poor korra she’s getting her bending taken away
but she’s got airbending as backup
well what was asami doing
she’s just about to die that’s all
sure
and electrocute her father pathetically running away after trying to kill his daughter
yes so mako, you need to be with korra
because she needs you more right
and she’s down because she lost her bending
i was really hoping that it was tenzin
you know
being a mentor
and helping her out
when she’s feeling really down about it
nevermind
why are you even here
you followed her
makeout time. great
great message delivered - if you are the avatar and you don’t have bending then you do not deserve love
so make sure you cry about it a little and don’t take action
then you will get bending back
and then you can say you love someone
