Yeah, it's based on the elements, right? [Raimei asks carelessly.] Just like ninjutsu.

[Not that Raimei uses any, but she's pretty familiar with it and knowledgeable as part of her upbringing, and she's used to the idea of fighting people that have powers she isn't using. It doesn't put her off at all.]

Wow, pretty glamorous in your suite, huh? But I'll have to look out for that dojo! That'd be perfect.

[alphatar]

I had no idea ninjutsu did... [Now Korra was quite sure there had to be different types of that art and she made a mental note to ask one the turtles later.]

Glamorous? Not really, just functional. I can't just stop training because my master's not here, you know? [She was quite sure Raimei knew that, it was just a rhetorical question.]

I am too. Maybe I'll swing by it just to get a looksee before I'm ready to get back into the full swing of things. My bending's not everything it used to be just yet.

[anomia]

[True to her attention span, Raimei drops about two different lines of conversation at once in favor of the ones that stand out to her, utterly careless and walking around the room just to enjoy being able to walk.]

I don't have a master, but when I see my brother again, I want to show him how strong I got while I was here! [she says with palpable drive.] I know we're stuck here, but we should think of it as an opportunity! [Because the alternative makes her depressed.]

You'll get it back, [Raimei goes on confidently.] You're doing great so far!

[alphatar]

Thanks Raimei. [The first bit of encouragement Korra had received about her bending is met with a smile.] I think you’re right, why stop now? I’m sure you’re brother will be impressed.

[Korra had been, especially with her resourcefulness on the trip.]

I’ll try and get a hold of Dinah and ask her when the best time to go is, I think she’d want to see what you can do.

[anomia]

Pfft, Raikou's such a hard sell! He's always been better than me. But I'm definitely going to catch up! [Her eagerness to prove herself to her brother hasn't changed since her opinion of him turned positive; it'd just lost its desperate hatred, and taken on a shade of rivalry.

Raimei is used to not being one of the heavy hitters around, but that doesn't mean she's okay accepting that. Her memory of her mother as a strong, compassionate figure was always in her mind, driving her toward that.

To that end, the idea of this dojo is an easily appealing one.] Okay, great. Let me know and we'll go together! [Inviting herself along? Absolutely.]

[alphatar]

Should I be concerned for his health? [Korra couldn’t resist asking. A small, confined smile on her face.]

Sure thing! If you happen to go by it before then, let me know if they have stuff set up for some outdoor training. [Living in the Wood Sector, there was a chance of that happening. Especially now that Raimei wasn’t relying on a crutch anymore.]

[anomia]

[There's actually a history of them fighting very seriously, and Raimei had intended to kill him for years out of a sheer, blinding hatred. So that's potentially a loaded question, though Korra doesn't realize it.

But Raimei barely flickers, just smiles.] Definitely! Your little sister has to keep you on your toes, right?

Outdoor training... okay! I usually go out onto the turtle shell cause it's all abandoned out there. That's been working out okay so far.

[alphatar]

[Assuming Raimei’s just being playful, Korra just grins and nods.] I’ll make sure to heal him if he comes along and you show him your stuff.

Sounds like a good spot for you. I usually have to move around the sectors. Kind of hard to find an open area that also gives access to all the elements, you know? [So far only the Water Sector had such a spot, but mixing it up with other locations was helpful.]

[anomia]

[They get along now just fine, and she doesn't hate him anymore at all, but that history is very much water under the bridge for them that Raimei can't forget. But here she grins back more widely.] He'll need it! You'll know him if you see him, he looks like me but taller and with this awful pink hair!

Oh, I didn't think about that. Can't you bring some water with you? It's probably good practice to get used to fighting without a lot of it. It's not always around!

[alphatar]

[After being introduced to red and blonde hair for the first time when she got here, Korra managed to keep her most of her laugh behind a very small, but very strong smile at the mention of pink hair. On a tall boy. She did her best to shove the hilarious thought of Mako or Bolin with that hair color.]

I’m pretty used to not having to use Water, but it’s nice when it’s available. Can’t stop practicing though, it’s the element of change and probably the most important one. [Not only because it was her innate element, but also because of the massive amount of training she had been given by Katara. Not something she wanted to let get rusty anytime soon.]

[anomia]

[Don't worry, Korra, that's how Raimei feels about it, too. Raikou was naturally blonde and dyed it pink for reasons she couldn't fathom. Seeing her reaction, Raimei rolls her eyes and says,] Right?

See, so getting practice with it in limited quantities is a good idea! You must fight with it, too, right? We can make that our focus!

[alphatar]

[As Raimei confirmed that she knew exactly what Korra was thinking, the laugh burst through the dam her lips tried to make.] Haha, yes!

All right, let’s do that! Pretty sure we can break that dojo back in between the two of us.

[anomia]

I'm just glad someone agrees with me! [she says with an answering laugh.]

Yeah! It'll be great! Two cute girls kicking ass and breaking it in... That's just what this dojo needs!

[alphatar]

Pretty sure Dinah wouldn’t mind that. I’ll let you know when I get word about it, ok? [Korra gathered up her sling bag, her goal to heal Raimei complete and plans to train were set. A much better visit than she was expecting.]

[anomia]

[Raimei makes it an explicit goal in her life to cheer up the people she likes as much as possible, to not let them have to bear the difficulties in their lives alone. So she'd count that a resounding success if she knew.

As it is, she smiles widely and makes the hand sign in her icon, with her pinky and forefinger raised, for absolutely no discernible reason as Korra leaves.] Okay! Thank you for healing me again!

[alphatar]

[Not discernible at all to Korra, her eyebrows raised with an awkward hand wave back. She knew it wasn’t an offensive gesture by Raimei upbeat attitude, but still it was slightly confusing.]

Anytime, see you!
