Where: Outside the colony
What: Finding suspicious shrines and exploring caves in the jungle
Rating/Warning: None


[It doesn't take that long to pack for the trip, with Korra certain that they'd only be gone for a few days. Her bag, slung over her shoulder as she waits just outside of Steven's apartment building. Though his presence guarantees she'll have an easier time breathing outside the walls this time, leaving the colony for an extended amount of time still makes her antsy.

Part of it's due to the metal scraping sounds she can still hear from the area they'd sealed off not too long ago, she figures. Korra turns her staff in her hands, occasionally frowning in the metro's direction as she waits for her friend to arrive. It's not until she sees Steven approaching her that she finally stops fidgeting.]

Ready to go when you are.

[ as the water begins to glow, his shoulders visibly begin to lose their tension. he didn't realize he was holding his breath until now, but the relaxing, cooling sensation of the water helps him remember to exhale. ]

I'll consider myself lucky, then.

[ it's not said lightly - he knows he could have lost an arm, or worse. ]

[braavado]

[Korra nods, hands already adjusting the path of the glider.]

I'll be nearby in case you need back up.

[With that, she starts dropping down, circling the skies below Steven as the dragon approaches them.]

[braavado]

[She laughs as he bows, her hand squeezing his briefly in return before letting go.]

All good now. Let's go! The sooner we finish setting up camp, the more time we have to look around.

Pretty lucky. [Now that she's got a good grasp of the injury she's patching up, Korra manages to spare some attention to smile slightly at him.]

It's still going to be sensitive for a little while, but I should be able to close it up no problem.

[ he nods as he watches her fly off, but there isn't much time to focus on her. ]

Metagross!

[ he throws the poke ball in his hand into the air, releasing his partner. but he's not going to fight the dragon as they are now - instead, he takes the stickpin resting in his shirt's lapel, pressing it momentarily to his lips. ]

Mega Evolve!

[ the rainbow-coloured stone begins to resonate with a blinding light, reacting with the stone set into the accessory on metagross' leg. the energy that the two share causes a change in metagross, and when the light subsides, it looks completely different. a strong, mysterious energy can be felt pulsing through the air - even korra will be able to feel it. ]

[ phew! at least he's not going to lose an arm, so he can put that worry out of his mind. he's relaxed enough to smile back, but does look a bit... pale. he won't let his expression betray anything more than stress, though - he doesn't want her to worry. ]

I guess I'll have to take it easy for the time being. Thank you.
