wait are people seriously getting hate for headcanoning korra or asami as lesbians??? this is ridiculous
YEAH dont forget that bisexuality exists but also DO remember that its almost impossible for a female character in a show to solely like women because Everybody Like Men, Right??? <sarcasm></sarcasm> its almost a necessity to have a girl like a guy because some writers/producers think thats our only worth in a story.
plus i dont know what experience yall had but i didnt flow from the womb serene in the knowledge that I Am Bisexual and lived undoubting forever more. a lot of people originally think they are straight/cis/sexual and have straight relationships because its considered ‘the default’, but then that changes because either they realize, or, simply, because sexuality is fluid!!
this is longwinded but i guess i gotta be because yall are missing the point here, and its that whatever korra and asami are/consider themselves too be/WILL consider themselves to be, its NOT STRAIGHT!!!
that and the fact that it was clearly paralleling kataang with ‘the end’ after it
it was as much as they could do with a tv-y7 rating on nick, as much as they allowed them to do
it’s what i expected, they tried so hard, they fought so hard, it’s heartbreaking. they deserve something on teennick that can actually show a kiss and we do too.
we deserve comics, we deserve everything
they wanted to show a kiss, they wanted to show a kiss, they did everything they could to show a kiss without showing it
I noticed this the second she took her hand! When just the two of them walked to the portal holding hands I already was as happy as I could be . OR. SO. I. THOUGHT.
THEN THEY DID THE PRE KISS HAND HOLD AND HOLY FUCK!!!
It was mercury which is a liquid metal at room temperature that is extremely toxic.
“Mercury and most of its compounds are extremely toxic and must be handled with care… Mercury can be absorbed through the skin and mucous membranes and mercury vapors can be inhaled… Mercury can cause both chronic and acute poisoning.”
Just like how they administered it. It went through the skin.
“Symptoms of methylmercury poisoning may include impairment of peripheral vision; disturbances in sensations ("pins and needles” feelings); lack of coordination; impairment of speech, hearing, walking; and muscle weakness…
Symptoms include tremors, emotional changes, insomnia, weakness, muscle atrophy, twitching, headaches, disturbances in sensations, changes in nerve responses, and performance deficits on tests of cognitive function. Higher exposures may result in kidney effects, respiratory failure and death.”
And now she is having trouble walking and she definitely looked like she was having trouble sleeping with those bags under her eyes. And that was like a litre or more of it
Our queen survived a litre of mercury running through her veins for minutes while fighting. She is so strong and no wonder she is so so sick. That would have killed a lesser person for sure.
May I point out that among all of the other amazing things Korra has accomplished as an Avatar, she is still able to go into the Avatar State (and actually fight against going into it when needed).
All of her past Avatars are gone, so the Avatar State is empty except for her and Raava. She was alone and had to rely on herself.
That means that all of Korra’s bending abilities were her own. That wasn’t the experience of the past Avatars helping her out. She is truly an amazing bender on her own.
She is a legend and an inspiration, and a strong and courageous role model for women and men alike :)
