[ action - morning through afternoon ]
[Naga knows before Korra does: Mako's gone. While Korra's at work at the Welcome Center, the polar bear dog sniffs around town, just to confirm it. But all his scents are old over a day old, and she doesn't need to see the Hall of the Missing to know that he's nowhere in the City.


[ voice - filtered to Chekov - supremely hackable ]
[For once, Korra remembers how to do a filter, even when upset. It helps that, by this point, the pain is familiar enough to practically be normal. With Mako gone, she's once again alone in the City.

Except the weirdest part is, she's not actually alone. At this point, she's been in the City longer than she had been in Republic City; she's known Chekov and Hei longer than she had known Mako and Bolin. She doesn't feel as stranded as she had the first time all her friends had left.

That doesn't stop her from feeling lonely in the large Beach House, even with three dogs, eight cats, and five sheep to keep her busy. Which is why she dials Chekov.]


Can you come over tonight? Bring some of that vodka stuff.

[Sadness. Happiness. Sadness again. Her emotions are cycling around so quickly, she can hardly see straight. She's not a drinker by any stretch of the imagination, but right now she'd give just about anything for the world to just stop for a minute and let her catch up.]



[ooc: Open action with Naga during the day! Come run into a lonely polar bear dog.]

at the Welcome Center;

[ Ever since their conversation last month, Joan has been more friendly with Korra. It wasn't that she was mean before, but now she feels like they have something in common. They could be friends. She likes that. ]

[ So when Korra comes in that day, Joan looks up from the desk and smiles genuinely at the girl. ] Hey, Korra. How's your day going?

[ Joan shrugs. ] Not bad. I was a little concerned that October would be especially bad here. Halloween themes. I wouldn't put it past the deities. Or whoever makes the curses now that they're gone.

Oh, sorry, I forget sometimes. It's a holiday. Originally to celebrate the harvest season. Now it's mostly about kids who dress up in costumes and go collect candy from their neighbors. It's the season to frighten yourself with ghost stories and bad horror movies.

Normally, yes. Normally people don't have as much reason to be terrified for real.
