[Open] Just a day in the Avatar life
Option A. Spirit Wilds (OPEN)
With the press catching on that she was "recovered" and around again, it was only a matter of time before they started trying to hound her for more information. And only a matter of time before Korra realized the Spirit Wilds were a perfect place for her to get some peace and quiet from them. The people in the city were still wary of the vines and tended to stay away. The spirits were a different matter, of course. The vines were their home, and Korra occasionally saw them watching her curiously as she passed.
There was one that was particularly persistent. She swore she saw those leafy ears disappearing behind some vines at least four times in the past half hour. What the heck was it doing?
When Korra heard some rustling behind her only a few minutes later, she stopped and said, "If you're going to follow me, you could at least quit it with the hiding act."
Except it wasn't the spirit at all when she turned around. "Oh, sorry! I thought you were...someone else."
Option B. Around Air Temple Island (OPEN)
Though Korra had trained all her life, there were still new things to be learned about bending all the time. After seeing a few air new air benders practicing the day before, Korra had the bright idea to do the same, with one of the more...interesting training moves. The tip of her tongue stuck out as she concentrated on balancing with one foot on the narrow pole, her hand raised and keeping a leaf dancing above her palm with a gentle air spiral. She stayed aloft for a few minutes, thinking how it wasn't as bad as she thought it might be...
Of course, her balance only lasted until a lemur, without a certain young air bender to latch onto, leapt onto her head and sent her tumbling to the ground with a yelp.
"Pokey, get back here! Ugh." Korra watched him fly off with a scowl as she rubbed at her head. Hopefully, no one had been around to see that...
Option C. Closed to Lord Zuko
Lord Zuko's presence in the city was a great relief to Korra, especially with Raiko, Lin, and Tenzin all missing. Now that a few weeks had passed, with still no news or developments, she thought it was high time she and Lord Zuko had another talk.
Following his directions to his home in Republic City, she loitered outside the door, twisting the material of her shirt between her fingers. This is stupid, she thought after a few minutes. Breathing in, she forced herself to raise her hand and knock on the door firmly.

A
"You're not wrong, though. I was following you."
no subject
But never mind. She could beat herself up about being careless later. First, she had to find out what this guy wanted. "You were? Why?"

no subject
She gave him another look, this one much more curious than the one before. “So…why did you want to meet me?”
no subject
"You're the reason I came to this city." He announced cheerfully. "I want to fight you." Though the way he said this carried no malice whatsoever; a friendly challenge.
no subject
"You mean a spar? I'm guessing it's because I'm the Avatar."
That would be a first. Though she had gotten her fair share of jeers from people like Tahno before, no one had actually asked to spar with her before. It could be fun.
no subject
"How about it?"
no subject
"We'll just have to be careful not to, you know, break anything here. I don't think the spirits would be too happy if we messed up their new home."
