atla character most likely to start a harem ?
I was gonna say that Sokka, bcs he was picking up girls (and boys 👀) all across the world. Hut he also feels like the type to see his partner as the most important thing in the world so idk if he could divide his attention like that.
But definitely someone from the Southern Water Tribe, the have like unparalleled rizz. It's superhuman at this point. Hakoda had like Kya, Bato and Malina, right? And Katara could also pull girls and boys if she wanted but she loves Aang too much lol. (Tbh Aang is similar too, he had charisma and is sweet, he could've been a beast in his twenties if he weren't so loyal)
Tumblr media
And don't get me STARTED on Korra. She's what, seduced almost every single character in her age range? Cause like:
Bolin with his puppy dog crush
Makorra was canon for two slutty, slutty books
Korrasami is canon rn that's literally all of team Avatar.
Whatever the weird tension with Tahno she had
She immediately gave Opal her sapphic awakening, I think
I count Wing's: "I can't believe I'm sparring with the Avatar 😍" as a little puppy crush too
And whatever the fuck Korra and Kuvira had going on, I think Korra singlehandedly gave both of Suyin's daughters their gay awakening
That's not even counting ships with age gaps, or more obscure and qustionable ships. This girl has chemistry with everyone.
Tumblr media
Also polyamory could've solved B1 tbh, Makorrasami should be more of a thing. I love their threeway dynamic and also it would be really funny from Bolin's perspective. He'd literally be this meme:

Three sentence meme: Tahnorra + Arranged Marriage AU 💍🌊
Tumblr media
Heart heavy with the weight of all the lifetimes, journeys, and Promises of those who came before her—and how could they do this to her, how could they have made this Promise for her, some 200 years ago—Korra of the Southern Islands, the Avatar, the rescuer, stood at the altar on the beach amidst the gilded glow of the sunset and dipped her hands into the sacred basin, touching her forehead, heart, and then his hands, binding this once-waterbender to her—in this lifetime.
Tahno, the once-arrogant and once-selfish soldier from the Eastern Swamp Islands whose power—whose spirit?—was stolen from him, met her gaze with dull gray eyes, as if he were begging her, one last time, You don’t have to do this—I am no longer what I was and you don’t deserve the burden of dealing with what’s left of me; curse the Ancient Promise and what the Elders think it means; you owe us nothing.
Even when he had controlled water, he had never understood it, and he had never fully understood the lengths to which she would go to fulfill her duty, but he wouldn’t be allowed to underestimate her any longer; he would watch as she restored balance to the world and to the spirit realm, as she returned his bending, and—if he had any respect for her at all, for their tribes, for their islands, for himself—he would spend every day of the rest of their lifetimes ensuring that he was worthy of her strength, her Promise Kept, her compassion, her sacrifice.

Legend of Korra: Tahnorra Private Lessons
Just because you lost your bending, doesn't mean you've lost your fight.
Korra and Tahno find themselves coping with the loss of their bending in a mutually destructive way. They can't probend; but they can still train, they can still fight. There's no ref in the arena to tell them how hard they're allowed to punch or kick or bite— Every shot counts as long as it lands.

hi all
🥲🥲 my account, @therentyoupay, was terminated today while i was eating dinner.
i have contacted tumblr support but reddit says that getting reinstated is really hit or miss. i don’t trust tumblr anymore so i don’t think i will be using it after this, even if they give me my account back. i have no idea what triggered its termination.
all posts from the last eleven years, as well as my fic-only blog (@therentyoupay-fanfiction), my advice blog, my organized fandom event blogs (@evenly-matched and @jelsaweekend), and my main have all been terminated. all the tumblr-only fic, the master posts, the manifestos, mutuals who i had not yet gotten phone numbers for, and fanart—gone.
will i be able to get it reinstated? i don’t know. even if i do, i think it’s a sign that it’s time to move away from tumblr.
it feels weird. i feel okay and also a little bereft. i hadn’t used tumblr for three years at one point but it was always nice to know that i could come back to it.
not sure if there is anything better than tumblr at this point. i think it might be time to just make a website of my own; or just stick to ao3.
i’ll use this account for now as a catchall for anyone who might be trying to find me. otherwise, the surest bet, for now, is ao3 and ao3 only.
thanks all 💕💕

from the same writer who brings you hits like “writes in all lowercase” and “often confuses prose and poetry” we bring you a new hit: there’s no quotation marks and we don’t know where they go!

I couldn't take Korrasami as a ship seriously because back when LOK B1 was airing literally everyone was shipping Korra with. Literally every one (Korra and the Doorman in Revelations, Tarrlok, Lin Beifong, Tahno, etc. Korra x Asami shipping happened at the same time).
Actually I couldn't take any shipping seriously because how ready everyone was to ship every character with someone else (Jinora with Skoochy was a really big one even thought they never talked, Bolin x Asami, IROH II AND ASAMI??!!?!?!)

Tahno
His memory of last night is a blur of alcohol and smoke and the double-syllable caw of his name being bleated in his ear by some girl whose name he cannot recall, and who has yet to leave his bed. The morning light—if it is indeed morning—filters through the small window above, slinking softly up his naked torso until it finds his face. He squints and lifts his hand, shielding his eyes from the harsh glare before stretching with a sort of feline grace. Beside him he can feel the smooth shapely limbs of some undoubtedly slender girl. She stirs as he wakes, pressing full, soft breasts into his side, and he groans.
All he can feel right now is a hammer pounding inside his head and the narrowing pinpoint of a clammy sort of churning in his gut. When she begins to cling tighter, he shoves her off. Naked, sweaty flesh peals away and he slumps into a sitting position, holding his head in his hands before sloughing off towards the toilet.
The floorboards creak as he walks down the stairs to get some breakfast (or is it lunch time now?) and another drink—anything to end this fucking hangover. With food lining his belly, he’ll go back upstairs and order the strange girl out of his bed. Or, if he’s fortunate, she’ll take the walk of shame out of the tavern while he’s still eating.
He laughs at the thought before palming a hand over his eyes. Yawning, he stops dead in his tracks when he sees the Avatar seated at a table in the far corner. She’s hunched over a bowl of noodles, eating like there’s no tomorrow.
Maybe it is noon.
She stirs, probably having felt his eyes upon her, and directs a half-hearted glare in his direction before returning to her meal. Tahno lowers his hand and frowns. Her presence is so jarring that he cannot help but stare, ignoring the hunger (or vomit) growling in his stomach.
Very rarely is he caught off-guard, and he has to blink twice just to make sure that she’s real and not some drunken hallucination. After the second blink, when she’s still there, he lets out a soft ‘hmph’ before absently running a hand down his chest. He’s half-naked and his hair is stuck up and tousled by restless sleep. He’s quite certain she’s never seen him so unkempt and for some reason this bothers him.
His blue silk pyjama bottoms pool over his bare feet as he walks over to her table, ignoring the countless eyes on him. He takes the seat across from her and leers.
“What are you doing here?” she barks, unperturbed by his half-naked appearance.
He arches an eyebrow in mild shock. He would have figured her for the blushing type. She is not. She’s more of the staring until you drop your gaze first type. Under her scrutiny, he unconsciously flips back his hair.
“That should be my question, Uh-vatar,” he says, his voice dark and rich. “I live here.”
“You live here?” She glances around the joint. “In the bar?”
He snorts derisively. “No, upstairs in the loft, you idiot.”
“You’re the idiot,” she mutters.
Her blue eyes narrow and then the tips of her ears turn pink. Finally, a blush—an angry blush—and his grin turns predatory.
“So, what are you doing here, Uh-vatar?” He leans forward on his forearms and she lifts her chopsticks, pointing to the bowl in front of her.
“I’m eating lunch. What does it look like?”
He watches her shovel the noodles into her mouth and leans back with a grimace. “If that’s eating, then the rest of us are doing it wrong.”
“Oh, ha-ha,” she mumbles between bites before sucking back a slippery noodle. “Don’t you have some sleazebending to do elsewhere?”
“No, I’m perfectly content right here.” He keeps his eyes trained on her while he raises his hand, signalling for a waitress. “Ticy, a glass of rice wine and the usual.”
The waitress nods and the Avatar’s brow furrows in disapproval. “Drinking so early in the morning?”
“Who says I’ve stopped since last night?” He spreads his arms wide in supplication before leaning back on his chair. “Besides, that’s what us sleazebenders do.”
She puffs out her bottom lip in keen thought as she mulls over his words. He wonders if she knows that her defiant glare looks more like an adorable pout. In any case, he won’t tell her that.
“Aren’t you worried about being too tired for the match tonight?” she asks, slumping back in her seat. “I’m pretty sure you can’t show up drunk. Not that I fully understand or even read the rules.”
“Why would I be worried?” He shrugs nonchalantly. “I’m just facing off with a trio of rookie losers.” Her right eye twitches at this and he can’t resist issuing her a lazy smirk before snapping his fingers. “It’ll be a cinch.”
“I wouldn’t count us out so easily,” she growls, and his smirk widens to a grin.
“No, I wouldn’t count you out so easily.”
He holds her gaze, gauging her reaction to his compliment. Most girls would turn away and blush. The Avatar just stares through him, or maybe into him, with the harsh lens of reality. He suddenly feels uncomfortable, almost awkward, and unaccustomedly struggles for words.
“You know, I saw your first match,” he idly comments, trying a new tactic.
“Ah.” She blushes softly in embarrassment. “You were at that game?”
A small smile of victory curves at his lips. “You were horrible,” he tells her, silky crooning lies from a snake bastard. “But if it weren’t for you, those street rats wouldn’t have stood a chance in the tournament.”
Her cheeks are burning red in anger now. “Mako and Bolin were doing just fine before I came along!”
“Mako, huh?” He snorts. “Right. The firebender. Y’know—” he leans in close “—even with the Avatar on his side, a loser like him can’t change his colours.”
She sits back in her chair and glares at him hard. He’s hit a nerve. He can almost feel the ice in the air, and though he should be wary he can’t help but smirk triumphantly.
The Avatar then picks up her drink and tilts it back, swallowing the last of the dregs all the while watching him, as though daring him to say something else. She sets the glass back down on the table and belches rather unladylike.
“Well, I suppose there’s a certain kind of logic to that. It takes one to know one, right?” She licks her lips and offers him a wry grin. “Who better to flush out the scent of loser than the biggest loser of all?”
His nostrils flare in indignation and he glances at her sideways, his gaze lingering on the boneless way she slumps against the chair. She’s totally uninhibited. Unafraid. It’s brazen and annoying but so very refreshing.
“You’re feisty,” he admits after a moment’s pause. “I like that in a woman.”
Suddenly, she laughs, a lilting crack of sound that resonates through the bar. “Careful there, pretty boy,” she cautions. “You’re coming off as one step above a creepy sleazebender, and I might just end up not loathing you entirely. Then what would happen?”
He ponders the notion for a second before smirking. “The world would stop turning, I suppose.”
She laughs again, and this time he almost feels like joining her. “Wouldn’t want that to happen, now would we?”
“No.” He leans back in his seat and cocks his head to the side, really taking in her form. “No, we wouldn’t.”
She’s not the best-looking woman he’s ever seen, but she’s fit and toned and has the most killer blue eyes he’s ever seen. On top of the undoubtedly soft and curvy body hidden beneath those baggy clothes is a woman with strength and personality—and a remarkable sense of humour. It’s the first time he’s really looked at a woman beyond her looks, and he can’t deny that he’s intrigued by her undeniable presence.
“So, do you want to go out after the match and get a drink? After we defeat your Fire Ferrets, of course.”
“Who says you’ll win?”
“Me.”
She snorts. “You’re pretty confident.”
“So are you.” He offers her a wink. “Maybe it’s a waterbender thing.”
“Maybe.”
“Seriously.” He leans in again. “I’d like to get to know you better outside the ring.” His eyes travel down her body, lingering for a moment, before meeting her gaze. “I think you and I could have a lot of fun together. How about it, Uh-vatar?”
She rolls her eyes but there’s an effulgence of colour on her cheeks. It’s downright adorable. But, again, he’ll never tell her.
“Yeah, not a snowball’s chance in the Fire Nation, pretty boy.”
He laughs. “C’mon, I’m curious about you.”
“You’re curious about me because I’m the Avatar,” she says, waving her hand in front of her face. “Some famous, talented bender.”
“Who said you were talented?” he asks dryly.
Her eyes widen a fraction of an inch and then she squints up at him in a facsimile of a glare. “This really isn’t an act for you, is it?”
“What isn’t?”
“Being a jerk.”
No, there’s nothing put-on about his personality at all. “I’m the best probending waterbender there is, Uh-vatar,” he says lowly, cocking his head to the side. “It’s not an act. It’s a fact.”
Disgusted, she breathes a hot jet of air out through her nose. She throws some money down on the table and kicks back her chair to stand. He doesn’t bother to get up.
“My offer still stands,” he says, looking up at her.
“Offer?”
“Those private lessons.” His grin turns wolfish when he sees a hint of pink creep up her neck.
“No thanks,” she mutters, and is about to turn when she places a hand on her hip. “You can do one thing for me, though.”
He lifts a thin eyebrow, intrigued. “And what’s that?”
“Bring that cocky attitude of yours to the ring, pretty boy,” she threatens. “I intend to wipe the floor with it.”
“Oh, I will, Uh-vatar,” he purrs, locking eyes with her until she finally turns to leave. “I will.”
He watches her exit the bar. Not once does she look back and he can’t help but smile. This Avatar Korra is someone special—of that he has no doubts. It’s as though she’s become the last remnant of a teenage fantasy that he no longer thought was possible for him. Or, more plainly put, she’s a challenge.
And tonight when he’s with some other woman, he’ll imagine the Avatar’s thighs wrapped around his waist and her pouty lips on his neck. And though some nameless girl will fill the role for now, he takes comfort in the fact that someday that girl will be the Avatar. Someday she’ll accept his private lessons.

The lessons have been concluded...
I can't believe it happened, but the final chapter of my Tahnorra story, Lessons, has finally been updated! It's been a long time in the making, but I am pleased as punch to finish this story and give Tahno and Korra their sassy, happy ending. The final chapter can be found here on my AO3.
Content warning - definitely 18+/NSFW but all consensual, no trigger/content warnings.

Chapter 5 – Love Lessons
This chapter is set after Korra has had her full Bending ability restored.
o0o0o0o
Tahno trudged home after a long day of delivering messages. He had a better appreciation for the working man now, working all these shifts for minimum wage. It had felt weird moving back home, especially since his teenagehood had been tumultuous, and he fought with his parents quite when he was younger, but now he got along better with them. His parents had bought a small house a few years ago, and he sat in a wicker chair in the modest front yard, taking a breath of fresh air.
His mother came out, giving him some tea. He had to admit, it was nice having her fuss over him. He had been so used to being independent and supporting himself. He didn't want to be a mooch, but he had to admit, it was nice being 'mommied' again. He sipped his tea, thinking of Korra. It’d been months, but the memory of her had not faded. Nor did he think they would ever. He’d taken – and been taken by – the Avatar, and though he was older and more experienced than her, she’d taught him quite a few things in and out of the bedroom.
If Korra knew what Tahno was thinking about, she probably would have smiled. It was good to be back in Republic City. She was glad that she had finally started to understand how to access her past lives for help. If the spirit of Avatar Aang could restore her Bending and give her the knowledge to restore other people's Bending, she wondered how truly powerful the Avatar Spirit was. Anyway, she wanted to try to help restore the Bending to the people who lost theirs to Amon. It wasn't right for innocent people to have a part of them taken away. It would be a long time before the city was in balance again, but she wanted to try.
Korra remembered the promise that she told Tahno that if she ever figured out how to restore someone's Bending, she would let him know. "Naga, help me find Tahno," she instructed her polar beardog. Naga led Korra further inland, into an area that looked to be modest and middle-class, with houses lining much of the streets, dotted by an occasional grocer or other shop. A few Cabbage Cars and lower-end Satomobiles were parked on the sides of the road.
Tahno looked up as he heard someone's surprised yelp from a few doors down, and looked over the low wall that surrounded his parent's yard, eyes widening as he saw a familiar creature. "Korra!" he called out, waving. She smiled at him and waved back and led the beast over to him before she climbed off Naga.
"Naga, don't eat those." Korra scolded her dog as she sniffed some of the shrubs. He came through the gate and hugged her in a friendly way. "I'm really glad to see you again, Korra," he said warmly.
"It's good to see you too. I have good news. Would it be alright if I sit with you and talk?"
Tahno blinked. Did she mean… His heart started beating quite fast.
"Of course. Naga can come too, but there is not that much room in the yard, she will need to be careful." he cautioned as he led her within the walls. His mother, seeing he had a guest, brought some tea for Korra, He led her to the other wicker chair, sitting across from her. He looked different now, a little more worn but also with an appealing sense of maturity that replaced his cocky swagger. He was still in his delivery uniform.
“That time in the South Pole was what I needed. I finally connected with my past lives and Avatar Aang's spirit restored my Bending and gave me the knowledge to help restore other people's bending." she smiled. "Lin Bei Fong was the first person I tried this technique on and it worked! She can Barthbend again! You’re the first person that came to mind after I healed her."
He was silent for a moment, processing the fierce churn of emotions within him. He would get his Bending back! Yes! Finally! He tried to not seem too excited, and he took a deep breath, trying to be cool. "That is wonderful news, Korra. I'm really glad you got it back, and good for Lin, too."
"Well, would you like me to give you your Bending back?"
"I think you know the answer to that, don't you?"
She grinned and stood up. "Well, you're going to have to kneel for me," she smirked. "Oh, uh, don't be frightened when my eyes start to glow. I need my past lives to help me when I Energybend."
He nodded and got to his knees, it felt a bit weird since he had been in the same position when he was de-bended. He felt her thumb against his forehead, and her hand on his chest. He took a deep breath as she closed her eyes and summoned the help of her past lives to Energybend.
Somewhere deep within, he wasn't sure if it was his head or chest or elsewhere, but it felt like Korra had opened the block that Amon imposed on him, and he closed his eyes as he felt the tension release itself, like a dam that had been broken. The chi flowed through his body like water racing into dry channels, and he let out a short, shuddering moan, one that was almost of pleasure and relief.
His eyelids fluttered open, and he stared into bright blue eyes. Her thumb slid from his forehead so that she could cup the side of his face with that hand as she gave him a gentle smile. "Come on. Try to Waterbend."
Tahno looked around before he saw the teacups and flicked his wrist, The water in them rippled. He moved his fingers, and the water snaked out. Gods! It felt incredible! He flexed his fingers, causing the water to spin and writhe around them in a ribbon.
The water gently plopped back into the cups before he pulled her in for a bear hug. She buried her face against his shoulder, and they stood like this for several moments.
"It feels incredible to Waterbend again,” he sighed happily, knowing he was stating the obvious but it had to be said nonetheless.
“Oh, I know the feeling.” His body felt strong and warm, and she leaned into it.
“I missed you.”
“I missed you too,” she admitted quietly before she looked back up at him. His hair was combed, hanging at the side of his face, a little longer than before. ”Hey, now that you have your Bending back, you can make your hair look fabulous again." she teased. “Pretty boy.”
"Ahh, I also missed you calling me that."
"And I missed hearing you call me, Uh-vatar."
"Uh-vatar." he said in a playful singsong tone.
"So what have you been up to these past months?" she asked as she took her seat again on the wicker chair.
"Well, I took a job as a deliveryman," he said, motioning to his uniform. "It doesn't pay as well as Pro-Bending, of course, but I've learned a thing or two about having a real job."
“Do you think you’ll return to Pro-Bending?”
He shrugged. "I'm not sure." Moving back in with his parents and taking a regular job was essentially starting a new life. Now that he had his Bending back… he knew one thing was for certain. He could not repeat the things he'd done in the past. Sure, he'd been young and stupid, but he'd still made conscious choices, and some of them had been pretty bad. It'd also been nice not dealing with the pressure of dealing with the public and paparazzi. In a way, coming here had been something of a detoxification process. Just because he had his Bending back didn't mean he needed to let toxic people back into his life.
Not that he hadn’t been a toxic person himself at times…
"I don't know. Maybe I could become a healer like my mother. It's a decent-paying job and I'll be able to help people. I’m not entirely sure I want to return to Pro-Bending," he admitted.
She nodded thoughtfully. “I guess that’s because of…” she trailed off, but both of them knew what she was talking about.
“If I do go back… and that’s a huge if, things are going to be different. I'm a little ashamed of the person I became."
“Just a little?” Korra asked dryly. He regarded her with a sheepish expression.
“I’m older and wiser, Korra.”
“Pfft. You’re not that old.”
"Gee, thanks." he grinned at her as he lightly touched her cheek.
"Hey, I'll still be around Republic City for a while. I got Avatar work to do, so maybe we can hang out more."
"I really would love that. I remember the day we spent at the beach.”
She smiled warmly at that. “Glad to see I’m not the only one who remembers that fondly.” They rose from their seats, and he gently kissed her forehead. She hugged him, and he wrapped his arms around her tightly, resting his chin on her head.
“I’ll see you around, then?” she asked as she pulled back.
"Of course. You know where I live, you can come bother me any time." he teased.
“See you later, pretty boy,” Korra said before she mounted Naga, and Tahno stood at the gate, watching them make their way down the road.
o0o0o0o
Tahno had been seeing Korra regularly, sometimes she came over to his parent's house, other times he took her out for dinner or walks, sometimes he took her out in his Satomobile, other times she would return the favor and take him around on Naga. Since he got his Bending back and wanted to make use of it, he was now shadowing an acquaintance of his mother's as an apprentice healer.
Korra rode on Naga to Tahno's place, wanting to spend the afternoon with him. She'd spent the morning at the Police Headquarters helping to restore the people's Bending. After a few, it was tiring. She knew it would take a while before she could undo all the damage the Amon had done to his victims. It was nice to get away from her Avatar duties and hang out with Tahno.
The man in question was meditating in the yard, and this time there were no shouts of alarm or surprise. So he did not become aware of his friend’s presence until Naga came along the wall that enclosed the yard, their shadow coming across his face and cutting off the sunlight that shone through his eyelids. He opened his eyes and grinned before he rose to his feet.
"What's a pretty little thing like you doing in a place like this?" he asked with a grin before he rubbed Naga under her chin.
"Stopping by to spend time with you. How's your apprenticeship going?”
"Pretty good, actually," he said, talking a bit about his day and what he had learned. "I'm learning so much about Waterbending. It's opened my eyes," he admitted.
"I can imagine. I felt the same way when Master Katara started teaching me about using Waterbending to heal."
"So.,.. what did you want to do tonight?”
"How about we head to the beach? Maybe a moonlit swim?"
"Sounds like fun. Let me change into something more appropriate." And get something else, he thought as he went into the house. He came back out, looking a bit nicer, his hair was also in the waterfall that she knew and was fond of. he grinned up at her and let her help him onto Naga. Holding onto her, loving the feel of her body against his.
"You seem to be in a really good mood today," Korra commented as Naga ambled down the road.
"Oh, I am," he said as he rested his head against her shoulder. The beach greeted them with a pleasant vista, the afternoon sun hanging over the horizon as they slid off Naga and started taking off their boots and socks. He dug his toes into the sand as he listened to the waves crashing against the rocks and sand. Not only that but with his Bending restored, he could feel the water that surrounded him. It was much like a mother's embrace, encompassing and comforting.
The trio ambled down the beach, Naga occasionally darting forward to sniff at something or play in the water. He felt her hand seek out his own, and offered it, feeling her fingers intertwine with his. Pausing in his steps, he turned toward her.
"How do you feel about me?" he asked as he looked down at her. She blushed and blinked, regarding him with a smile.
"I enjoy spending time with you. I've seen you change as a person, and I'd say you're probably my closest friend."
"Really? I'm your friend?" he paused. "Is that all? I mean, I'm just curious, since we've been more than friends…"
She was thoughtful as she stared out at the waves for several moments. "I am fond of you," she finally said.
"What would you say if I said I cared for you? I mean, deeply?"
She turned back to him. “I care about you, too.” She squeezed his hand.
“Am I someone you would consider spending your life with?”
Her eyes widened as she absorbed the implications of what he was saying. Their relationship thus far had been made up of different things. In the beginning, there had been animosity, yes. Then there was the flirting and teasing, the playful challenges and snarking, and then… there had been genuine care and affection. And respect.
And now, they had moved beyond all that, though neither of them gave a name to that new level, at least not yet.
“Well… with you… that's something that is… worth considering," Korra finally said. He gave her hand a reassuring squeeze before reaching into his pocket and pulling out a necklace.
"I made this for you," he said gently. "I would be honored if you allowed me to court you."
Korra was speechless as Tahno handed her the necklace. She looked at the image he had carved on it and saw that it was an abstract design of a seashell engraved on a blue stone, she was reminded of the necklace that she had seen Master Katara wear. She was silent for a moment before she stepped forward to hug Tahno and whisper, "Yes."
He nuzzled her and hugged her fiercely, placing a gentle kiss on her cheek. "I’m glad you liked the design. I almost went crazy trying to figure out what to do for the design, I wanted it to have a special meaning for both of us."
The idea had come to him when he recalled that day they spent on the beach. There’d been no sex, yet it had been an incredible day with her, and it was what helped him realize that his attraction for her went beyond a carnal level.
“It fits,” she said as she felt the design under her fingertips. He let her study the pendant before placing the necklace around her shapely neck.
"You look beautiful." he breathed as he touched her cheek. "But then, you always do."
She pulled him in for a kiss, sucking on his lower lip. He stroked her hair, feeling like the happiest man in the world.
o0o0o0o
It had been about a week since Tahno’s proposal. They had decided to take an afternoon off to have a picnic at the beach and enjoy time together. Korra strolled up the street on Naga to Tahno’s house, eyes sparkling as Tahno’s mother greeted her before retreating inside to give the young couple some privacy.
"Well, there's my beautiful, gorgeous, sexy fiancee," Tahno said with a grin as he drew her into his arms.
"Aren't you looking handsome and fabulous today? Ready for a fantastic day at the beach?"
He flipped his waterfall. "Baby, I've been ready for it all week." He wiggled his eyebrows at her, giving her a playful leer. She chuckled at that before he went inside to get the basket he'd packed and a blanket. She secured them to Naga before the two of them climbed on her. It was almost funny to think that he was now riding Naga regularly after their unpleasant first meeting.
“How’s work going?”
"Pretty well. I'm older than most of the other apprentices, but since I was a Pro-Bender, that has helped me advance quickly in some ways." They chatted a bit more about their work before arriving at their beach.
“Well, here we are. At our spot,” he whispered warmly into her ear. She chuckled at that.
“Yes, our spot.” She looked up at him fondly before they slid off Naga, spreading out the blanket and sitting down for their picnic after taking off their shoes so they could curl their toes in the sand. He opened the basket and took out several goodies that he’d helped his mother make, including gyoza, rice balls, and vegetable wraps.
“I also brought along marshmallows we could roast. And chocolate to dip the fruit in. If you’re willing to Firebend, that is,” he said as he brought out a container of fruit and a bag of the puffy confectionery as well as a ceramic container filled with pieces of solid chocolate.
“Ooh! Yes, I can make us a fire in a bit.”
"You already make me hot in my pants." Tahno teased as he took a bite of his gyoza.
"I'd be disappointed if I didn't," she smirked before she munched on her wrap. He took out a rice ball, munching on it as he stared out at the vista. The sky was starting to take on colors at its fringes, indicating that afternoon was turning to evening.
“I’m just about ready for my treat,” Korra said before she lifted the clay pot, applying a judicious amount of Firebending to melt the chocolate. To ensure it was melted through and through, she stuck her pinky finger in it, stirring before lifting the digit to her lips. Her tongue darted out, and she eyed him as she slowly licked her finger. He felt a familiar surge of heat that had nothing to do with Firebending…
"Now I'm imagining drizzling that chocolate along your naked body and licking it off.…"
"Mmm, I bet your cock would taste wonderful with chocolate smeared onto it."
"I do believe it would." he grinned as he dipped a strawberry before eating it. Korra took a strawberry, making a show of licking the strawberry clean of the chocolate before taking a bite.
"Mmmm... perhaps you would like to remind me more of your licking skills later..." he said with a smirk, eating another strawberry.
“Maaaaaaybe…” came her drawl as she dipped another strawberry.
"Since we're teasing one another and talking about sex... why don't we do it here?"
Her eyebrows raised in interest. "Sex on the beach? That's rather bold."
"We're alone, Naga is keeping guard, and we're both skilled Waterbenders, and you're the Avatar. Don't tell me you're afraid of a bit of sex on the beach." he grinned.
"I'm not afraid," she pouted. "This place has a special meaning for us. Sure, I'm up for some hot sex on the beach with my hot fiance," she smirked. "So..., we gonna get naked?"
He pulled off his jacket and shirt before wiggling his way out of his pants, wearing nothing but black undershorts while she did similarly, sitting back down on the blanket in her panties.
“You look good shirtless,” she said as she ogled him, making no secret of it. He grinned and puffed out his chest, flexing his arms and posing for her. Unable to resist this stroking to his ego – other parts of him would get plenty of stroking soon enough – he swayed his hips, doing a bit of a dance for her. The sunlight shone on his pale skin, casting it a rich gold in the waning light. With the waves crashing behind him, it made for a stunning show.
He smirked at her as he slid off his underwear, now dancing naked, completely au naturel on the beach, looking like a god that had just emerged from the sea. Her eyes widened, and she welcomed the hot stab of arousal that passed through her core.
He approached her and crawled onto the blanket towards her with a seductive purr, tugging at her breastwrap with his teeth. She giggled and batted at him lightly a couple of times, but allowed him to divest her of the garment as he growled at her playfully. Her hands reached up to massage her breasts for him, and he closed in to suck the left nipple, nuzzling the warm mound of flesh.
She leaned back on the blanket, letting out a sigh of contentment as she watched him attend to her breasts with his hands and mouth before he moved down to her underwear. Lifting her hips, she watched as he divested her of the last of her clothing, tossing it aside to the side.
"You look good enough to eat," he said with a purr. "Almost as good as a strawberry..." he joked. She rolled her eyes, but she had to admit his teasing could be amusing sometimes… and he let her tease him back. When she felt his hands on her thighs, she whispered his name, pulling her knees apart. He wasted no time in pleasuring her, and she had to muffle her cries. The last thing she needed was someone walking in on them!
She lay there in a haze of pleasure as Tahno sat back on his knees, unsurprisingly erect as he looked down at her. She looked at his turgid flesh for several moments before an idea came to her, and she grabbed the chocolate. Dipping two fingers after reheating the chocolate, she dripped the warm treat along the top side of his cock.
“Fuck, Korra…” he breathed, watching her tongue slather up and down him, licking the chocolate off his stiff flesh, his cock twitching happily under the ministrations. "Does the good girl want a lolly?' he could not help but tease as he sat back. Fuck, it felt so good, and he watched as she savored her treat as he felt her hand massage his balls. She was rewarded with a new treat when he had his orgasm, but she continued licking him, ensuring that all traces of chocolate and semen were gone. Which did a pretty damn good job in ensuring that he remained hard.
She sat back, and he was certain she would ask if she could ride him. His cock ached for it, and he wiggled his hips, making the hard flesh bounce. He wiggled his eyebrows suggestively.
"Mmm, I'd love to take your sweet, sweet ass again," she smirked at him. He gave out a mild groan of dismay at that.
"You want my ass? Not my cock?" he chided lightly.
"I do want your cock, but you did enjoy that one night when I played with your ass."
"I admit nothing," he said with a mock huff, crossing his arms.
"Your ass is mine, pretty boy!”
"All of you is mine." he shot back, flipping his waterfall.
"Mmmm, I guess it is." She smiled, stroking the stone of her necklace.
"You look hot wearing nothing but that. Well, hotter than usual." he grinned. "Come here, baby." He held out his arms to her. She wiggled close and snuggled against him as he kissed her forehead. Her fingers trailed along his chest.
"So, you gonna let me claim your ass again?" she smirked.
"Why should I?" he mock challenged.
"Because I'm the Avatar and I said so." she teased.
"Oh, don't tell me you're going to be lording that over me through our relationship," he mock grumbled.
"You're just gonna have to deal with it." she grinned. To that, he could only blow a raspberry.
"Mmm, hey, we haven't tried bondage in any of our sex play. If you let me ride your ass, you can restrain me and tease me,” she offered. His lips spread into a lecherous smirk as he imagined the possibilities.
"Now, that's more like it," he said.
"So we have a deal then? See, I can compromise."
"Isn't that what marriage is about?" he replied in his usual smart-ass way. Yes, he stopped being a jerk, but he was not going to stop being Tahno. Korra lightly punched him in the arm before blowing a raspberry.
“Come on now, show me that gorgeous ass of yours,” she commanded as she Bended some water, manipulating it in the shape of a cock and anchoring it to herself via its other end, effectively making a double-ended dildo.
She preceded to attach the water strap-on to herself so that she was sporting her own cock. Looking over his shoulder with a sultry gaze, he assumed the position, rolling over onto his knees and swaying his hips, wiggling his butt at her. She came up behind him, giving his cheeks a firm squeeze and a light spank.
He gasped quietly and nibbled his lower lip, his cock aching. Noting his reaction, she spanked him several times, his skin taking on a pale rose hue as he writhed, wiggling at her. Korra tapped his puckered opening with the tip of her water-cock. She heard him take a deep breath, but he did not pull away. She reached down to rub his back as she pushed her hips forward.
“...Ohhh…" Tahno let out a moaning exhale as she slid in all the way, fingers digging into the blanket as he clenched around the intruder. And then, as he relaxed, there was only enjoyment. He lowered his shoulder, resting his head on his arms as he felt the head of Korra's 'cock' rub against his prostate as she pushed in and out, causing precum to drip from his cock.
“Yes,” Korra said in encouragement and approval before using her Bending to make the water vibrate within both of them. He jerked and gave out a small mewl of surprise before he arched his back in delight.
"Oh, spirits." he moaned, his penis aching even more than it was, straining against the air as it sought some relief for itself, twitching, some precum beaded at the tip. She increased her pace, panting as she worked herself to her climax, the vibrations and thrusting bringing him near his own, but he was unable to go over the edge, however close he hovered near the brink.
Finally, she pulled out, and Tahno looked over his shoulder with a shaky smile on his face. He couldn't believe how fucking hard he was. She discarded the water by Bending it to a distant spot before rubbing his ass. Her hands slid over the smooth curves of his rear end.
“Now, wasn’t that fun?” she cooed, pressing her breasts against his back as she leaned over.
"Yes," he admitted with a smirk. "And I know you enjoy being on top, in more ways than one."
"A deal is a deal though. Now it's your turn to be on top and tease me." she smiled sweetly.
"Then lie down like a good woman,” he said in a mock commanding tone. She rolled onto her back and propped herself on her elbows.
"Spread wide." he purred. As she did so, he summoned water to bind her hands and ankles, turning them to ice, and leaving her spread open. Before he touched her pussy though, he formed an ice-cube and touched it to her right nipple, seeing her gasp.
“Hey, that’s cold!” she whined.
"So it is," he said casually, teasing her with it for a bit before moving to her other nipple. She hissed at him as he continued to tease her nipples. She could very well Waterbend out of her bindings, or melt them if the cold became too much. But she was being a good girl, and remaining where he put her.
"Perhaps I should touch this to your clit..." he whispered.
“Oooooo! No!” Korra said with a horrified gasp.
"Don't worry, I'm not that cruel..." He traced the ice cube around her navel but did not go any further south. She watched him with hooded eyes, wondering what he would do next. He slid the melting ice along her body until it was almost gone before he climbed on top of her, gently tickling her armpits and sides, she was bound and in no position to resist. She let out a giggle at that, squirming against him.
"I love the sound of your laughter," he said as he poked her sides before placing a kiss on her cheek. He'd waited long enough, and his aching flesh was so red at the tip it was almost purple. With a wave of his hand, her binds were loosened, and he climbed on top of her, sliding the tip of his cock along her slit before pressing forward just a bit. She moaned and arched, and he pulled his hips back. He teased her some more, however, playfully nudging her quivering slit with his cock before pulling back a bit, and then poking her again, pulling back when it seemed like he would push in.
"Quit stalling and get inside of me already!" she pouted.
"What's the magic word?" he teased.
She growled at him. "Now." She paused for a bit before saying quietly, "Please."
He kissed her on the lips before burying himself within her in one single thrust. She let out a loud groan as she registered the feeling of his length buried in her throbbing cunt.
"This is what you've been waiting for, Korra?" he asked with a knowing smirk. She nodded eagerly, showing no hesitation.
"Ffff... yes.... that's it, you know what I love..." He continued to thrust slowly so he could enjoy the clenching. She grinned at him before she clenched around him firmly, not wanting to let him go. It was not long before he picked up the pace, and she wrapped her legs around his waist.
“You make me feel so good,” Korra purred as she stroked his face with one hand.
"That's my job. But it's a job I enjoy," he replied, leaning down to kiss her. She kissed him back, sucking on his lips and playing with his tongue while his hand traveled down to her clit, now playing with it as he continued thrusting inside of her.
"Keep doing that, I'm so close." she groaned. He nodded and did just as she asked, before giving out a pleased cry as he came. It took several more thrusts from his cock and fingers before Korra achieved her climax, and he moved in a languorous but steady pace, drawing out the pleasure for both of them. When he started to soften, he slid out and plopped down at her side.
Korra sighed in contentment and snuggled up to Tahno, wrapping her arm around his middle. After some time basking in their companionship, he spoke. "All that fucking has gotten me hungry."
"Yeah, I'm a little hungry too. Say, you wanna roast these marshmallows? That would be a great post-sex snack." she grinned.
"Some sugar after the sugar I got from you? Sounds good!" They collected their clothing, insulating themselves against the cooling of the evening. She pulled out some provisions for Naga and a large leather canteen of fresh water, Bending some sand and rock into a temporary bowl so Naga could eat.
The Avatar lit fire to several pieces of suitably dried driftwood while Tahno relaxed on the blanket, watching her.
"Such a hard worker, you'll be a good wife." he teased. She snorted at that and rolled her eyes.
"Being a Firebender has its perks. I can easily keep myself warm and keep a fire going."
"I'll be expecting you to keep me warm, of course, it will be part of your wifely duties."
She gave him a feigned glare, and he grinned. “Hey, if you can lord your Avatarhood over me, then I can lord my manhood over you,” he said before he flipped his waterfall and taking on a lordly expression. Nonetheless, he got up and found several more pieces of wood on the other side of the beach, and between the two of them, they had a steady fire going. He took two sticks and cleaned the tips before placing marshmallows on them.
They both liked theirs with a bit of a crisp on the outside and giggled as they carefully let the outer layer burn a little before pulling the treats away from the fire.
“Mmm, this is so good,” Korra moaned as she locked a bit of melted marshmallow from her finger.
"That's why I brought it along," he said with a grin. "Although you make a tasty snack, too…"
She gave him a playful growl before roasting a fresh marshmallow, and they talked and joked, sometimes feeding the other person their marshmallow. As the fire died down, they laid back, watching the sun go below the water. They knew they should be going soon, but he didn’t want to get up, not when he was high on sugar and sex, with the Avatar loosely spooned up to him.
"And to think none of this would have happened if I hadn't offered you these private lessons…"
"Ffff. I remember you wouldn't leave me alone, no matter how much I taunted you back."
"Admit it, you enjoyed our banter."
"I enjoyed watching you reel back and squeal in fear when I called for Naga to roar at you when we first met." she pointed out.
"Not as loudly as you squealed when I ate you out for the first time." he shot back.
"I hope we have many more relaxing and fun days like today has been in our future together." she yawned. He nodded and wrapped his arm around her shoulders as he licked the last of a marshmallow from his thumb. He looked down at her with a fond smile.
"I love you."
She snuggled contentedly against his shoulder. "I love you too."

HaefacielSmilingTitan - Back when The Legend of Korra first aired, I was a Makorra fan. That changed with Tahno’s infamous “private lessons” double entendre. I wasn’t alone in thinking that Tahno and Korra would be a fun and sexy couple. The LoK community certainly delivered producing delightful fanart of Tahnorra. “Lessons” was started a long time ago and I’m so happy that this epic is finally completed and available for fans to enjoy.
StyrawberryCatBeans – So, me and Haefaciel worked out this story way back when Korra was still airing, and recently we got to talking about Avatar and One Piece (which is my current main fandom, lol) Due to various stresses in real life I had not gotten much writing done in the last few years, and the writer's block was terrible. However, late last year, I had an event that shook things up and some of that shakeup was good. I have gotten more writing done in the last few months than I have in the last couple of years, and it's amazing. I finished this story and also posted a story I also co-authored with Haefaciel, called 'Spoken Truth' which is about Ming-Hua and Ghazan. (oh yeah baby)
Even with Korrasami being canon, we both still ship Tahnorra, and we had chatted about how it’d be great if Korra was with Tahno and Asami. Who says she has to choose, Asami’s also smart and sexy and has a gorgeous waterfall in her hairstyle, so when Korra’s tired from sexing Asami and Tahno, she can watch them have gorgeous waterfall smex.
Yeah, we got a little corny and cheesy there, but what's the point of having a friend if you can't share these corny and cheesy moments? So if you enjoyed this story, please come and check out my other works. Have a great day and let's hope 2024 is better than the last few years! Lord knows we need a (looooooong) break from all this fuckery.

I don't often do fic recs that aren't Irosami here, but this very cool Korra/Tahno story popped up the last few days and it's so unique and beautiful that it's tragic it only has a single kudo (mine). Go read about Tahno being absolutely destroyed. You won't regret it.
