I WAS MEANT TO ANDWER THIS AND THEN I GOT DISTRACTED.
it’s so hard to say cause I’ve read literally hundreds of korrasami fic but one that always comes to mind is it’s such a gorgeous sight to see you in the middle of the night by badkids
And if you’re 18+ I always loved Blue by ZoeReed too
And direct to video by Emirael
I also absolutely loved Paradiddle by bazaar
I also remember reading this (once) They say that true love hurts. Well, this could almost kill me by frenetic_core and I didn’t reread it again cause being left hanging like that killed me but it was so good.
Anything by YennaWang is always great!!
There’s also a bunch of good university au of korrasami’s. There’s probs a bunch I love that I’ve missed cause it’s late rn but still
If anyone has any more recs please link them below or give the title and author !!
M!Reader : Just hanging out with the chief! It's good to see you again!
Tenzin : Same here Y/N, Hmm... I've never seen you and Lin hanging out this much before? You guys didn't really interact much even in the past
Lin : Then you must've missed out on a lot...
M!Reader : Would you like some tea?
Tenzin : That would be very appreciated Y/N..
[Y/N leave the two of them alone to get some tea]
Tenzin : .....
[Tenzin let out a cough]
Tenzin : Sooooo.... How's hanging out with Y/N been going?
Lin : His the whole package Tenzin...
Tenzin : .....
[Tenzin realisation and forms a shocked expression]
Tenzin : Wait are you two!?-
Lin : Yes.... And I can already confirm that his really good in bed not to mention very obedient if you know what I'm saying?
[Lin bumps her elbow onto tenzin's shoulder with a smirk with her eyes closed and starts walking to the direction Y/N was going leaving Tenzin still completely shocked]
Ok yall listen shut up! I had the dumb idea of like modern day Lin playing Minecraft with her girlfriend and the rest of the Krew playing as well on like a discord call/twitch
Hey, remember that time Suyin saved the Avatar Cycle?
Suyin's handling of the metallic poison situation is among some of the pettier things that fault-finding fanatics within the ATLA/LOK fandom tend to hurl at Suyin, which genuinely baffles me. Maybe I am overreacting, but it often feels less rooted in any genuine criticism of her character rather than an avenue to use some thinly veiled microaggressions to excuse their issues with her at best or exercise flat-out hate towards her at worst.
"Smh she didn't even get it all it out"
"Lin would've got it all out"
"Toph just crapped on her"
General comments like these often carry a negative connotation, focusing more on Su's failure to fully "heal" Korra. Something that I feel is missing out on the deeper intricacies of the matter, which I'll get to in a moment. There's also this very peculiar sentiment that the poison was all that held Korra back when it was actually a combination of factors such as the brutality of the fight itself and the lingering PTSD that stemmed from her overarching doubt and fears over her role as the Avatar. All of these factors, along with even inhibiting the poison within her bloodstream in the first place, is what crippled Korra for years.
Not having it all out or not, seeing as how Korra still had issues even after removing it all in Book 4.
Speaking of bloodstreams:
Let's discuss Suyin's prowess as a metalbender. Firstly, it was a miracle that she was even able to get out as much as she did, despite Zaheer deliberately prolonging the fight with Korra so that the poison could be further entrenched in Korra's body and her bloodstream. Who knows, maybe if Suyin had gotten to Korra immediately, she would've likely gotten it all out, which is something I hardly see get mentioned.
The complicated nature surrounding the poison itself is another issue: Not only was the poison fluid in nature, but with it being metallic, Suyin had to actually perform the double duty of carefully finding the traces of earth within a liquid substance within someone's bloodstream in a very quick and precise amount of time because Korra could very well die at any moment. That is A LOT to consider, and she still managed to do a good enough job to save Korra's life and, you know, the Avatar cycle itself. It's also neat that Suyin uses techniques similar to waterbenders to navigate the poison out. This highlights the level of her precision with the element and the sheer amount of elegance that Suyin has with metal bending.
It exemplifies an understated quality to her character in how she's spent much time exploring the more intricate and creative ways to apply her bending that isn't just combative.
And you all better thank her every day for being that way!
How do you guys think Opal's airbending manifested because I personally think she was in an argument with Kuvira, and accidentally air yeeted Kuvira through a window.
