(OOC: Tag in! Do it. Do it now. If you had any specific plot you wanted to run by me, just send me PM or contact me on plurk skericide. Her usual hangouts are at her dojo in Wood, her suite ME-2A, the hospital in Metal, Jack's Fishing Shop in Water, or the Brazen Turtle in the center of Keeliai. But Korra can be at any sector on just about any day. Prose or brackets, they're both good!)

But it was only an instant and Korra felt her stomach try to climb upwards. For five months, she had been without anything, not even so much as a kiss. Like this one.

Her hand reached up into his hair and she parted her lips to kiss him back. A need to have that part of her, the one that had been neglected, finally be released was too strong. She placed her knee onto the bed and leaned forward into him, moving her lips to find every part of his. Rediscover them all over again.

He was hot from the fever, but her face getting warm from more than just that. Korra's passion was hotter than any knew, save for Mako.

Kissing was something he could react to, even in his fevered state. When Korra pressed forward, he leaned against that, and pressed his lips against hers, his tongue and hot breath darting across her lips, before pressing into her mouth. It was like second nature, being with her again.

Though he wasn't thinking so much as impulsively acting. Perhaps this was the capstone of his entire moment of weakness, being with her and kissing her.

A hand reaches, shaky, under her chin to pull her closer to him. His sickness obvious even through the kissing, that he has to break to breath out hot breaths, his shaking hands, and the unsteady way that he kisses back. She can feel his body shiver.

[alphatar]

A sharp tingle darted straight down to the very core of her belly when she felt his tongue press into her mouth and she couldn't fight the urge to do the same. Hot breath for hot breath, she hungrily kissed him back; deeply as she could manage. His touch only encouraging her.

She could feel him shaking, and she pressed her body to his, let him leech off her own body warmth even though he was burning up. Thinking was taking a back seat and she brought both her hands up to the sides of his head.

This moment was helping him somehow, she wasn't quite sure how, but she'd figure it out later.

[browbeater]

This was a bad idea. Even his fever addled brain could work through that much, though it was slow to process. In the meantime, there was still her, though he was somewhere between wanting to push her away for being too hot, and pull her closer because the rest of the room was too cold.

But his brain was catching up with him (though he was certainly out of breath, which was kind of sad), and he pulled back from her. Something had just occurred to him, and he realized he didn't know how long they'd been kissing.

Which meant...

"Korra, what about the food...?"

[alphatar]

Caught up in the moment and practically bowled over from heightened sensitivity, both emotional and physical, after five months; Korra chased after him when he started to pull away.

But the words caused her eyes to snap open and stare at him for a brief instant.

Crap. CRAPCRAPCRAP!

"The food!" As quickly as she could, Korra climbed off him and put her hands up. "Don't do anything that might get you hurt." She lingered just long enough to look at him, fully nude and she bit her lip. Then she turned and hurried back to the kitchen.

What was she even thinking? He was a sick mess and wasn't even thinking straight.

Apparently neither was she.

When she got there, Korra quickly turned off the stove and put the food away. As soon as she closed the refrigerator, Korra thunked her head onto the door. She probably should have just brought it over to him.

...after resting her head there for a moment, trying to clear her head, Korra limped her way back to the bedroom.

[browbeater]

With her gone, he could at least get the boxers and sweatpants he'd pulled out on, even if it was slower than he would've liked. But not slow enough that he couldn't lay back down and pull the covers back over himself.

And fall asleep.

It was really easy, since he had been teetering on the edge between consciousness and unconsciousness for awhile.

[alphatar]

When she got to the doorway, Korra let out a suppressed breath that had a hint of exhaustion. Under the covers and fast asleep. She shook her head, both at him and herself.

Him for obvious reasons, herself for wanting to come back and pick up where they left off.

"...no, Korra." Said to herself as she walked over and climbed carefully onto the bed. He was warm, too warm, but she moved close to him put her head next to his. This was the weirdest situation she'd ever been in, and that was saying a lot considering where her life on Tu Vishan had taken her.

Eventually her confusion gave in to her being tired from the short hours of sleep she got, and Korra fell asleep.
