Putting everything in place (Nim, eventually Alpha Flight)
Korra had been doing a lot of thinking, lately. On her eighteenth birthday, she'd asked her parents to allow her to join a superhero team, to allow her to spend more time on the surface, and so she could be a hero like her cousin and older sister. Her parents agreed, under the condition that she either join Alpha Flight, with her sister, or the Avengers with her cousin, Mackenzie. Korra had given it a lot of thought, and decided on Alpha Flight, her sister's team.

Now came the hard part. Seeing if they'd actually let her on the team. Korra had butterflies in her stomach thinking about it, but she wasn't going to wait around any longer. While she was at her mother's house one day, she called her sister, Nim. She'd talk to her about coming out and at least visiting the team, first.

	The opening steel drum cords of Under the Sea told Nim that it was her sister calling before she even looked at her cell's display. "What's up, Korra? Dad finally get you that polar bear-dog?" (Reply to this)(Thread)

	Korra giggled. "Sadly, no Naga, yet. Though Christmas is just around the corner. I'm hopeful." "How are you, Nim?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"We're good," she said. "Mason's looking at doing college in the States, but I think it'll be good for him." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"That sounds good. Have him call me. I can have Mom put in a good word for him." Korra paused, taking a deep breath. "Can I talk to you about something?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Hmm?" Nim asked. "Sure, what's up?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Mom helped me talk him down," Korra said. "She understands that I want to spend time on the surface." Pause. "I was very sheltered for most of my life, Nim, as you know. I've never really been outside of Atlantis or New York, unless I was going somewhere with my mom. I want to see more of the world. I want to help people, you and Mac do." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"I'm not sure Canada doesn't count as sheltered too, Korra," Nim said. "But I get what you mean." "So what're you planning to do?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	frosted_water 2012-12-27 01:10 am UTC (link)
	"Well...Dad did say I could join a superhero team. On one condition. I either join the Avengers, with Mac, or Alpha Flight, with you." "So...got any openings?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	sea_shelly 2012-12-27 02:04 am UTC (link)
	"Well, this is technically supposed to be a Canadian team," Nim said. "But I can't imagine they'd turn down an opportunity for better relations with Atlantis." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"I'm your sister. I'm Canadian by association." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"You're just trying to rub off our awesomeness," Nim teased. "I'll have to talk to Jordan about it, but I don't see why not." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	frosted_water 2012-12-31 01:10 am UTC (link)
	"Thanks, Nim. You're the best." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)
