[ INSIDE THE COMMUNAL DINING AREA AT AIR TEMPLE ISLAND ]

𝐀𝐅𝐓𝐄𝐑 that fiasco with Chief Beifong and Tenzin threatening Korra and I to return to the South Pole, he finally came around after our countless begging and fake tears, and told us that we both can stay at Air Temple Island for the time-being just so Korra can complete her Airbending Training (although, I'm very convinced that he only allowed us because I offered to babysit his children...for free ). 

"—-and in the final round, the Buzzard Wasps won with a knock-out!" exclaimed Korra, reading the sports section of the daily newspaper. 

"Let me see!" I ruthlessly snatched the paper out of her hands, with her arguing that she wasn't finished reading.

"The answer is still no," he shutted down sternly. "You're here to finish your Avatar training, not to watch that drivel. You'll remain on this island until it's complete."

Korra slumped down and leaned her head against the palm of her hand. "This isn't fair."

"Well," I said as I started to get up. "It may not be fair to you, but it's totally fair to me. You know why, Korra? 'Cause I'm not the Avatar! Now, if you'll excuse me, I need to prepare for tonight's match-."
