12:27 PM
[ Sector 1 | Athletic center | late morning ]
[Korra's always been an energetic person; she's not happy unless she's in motion. Usually she just likes to work out in one of the parks, but after hearing about the Athletic center, she decides to check it out.]
[It's as she's leaving the Athletic Center to get lunch that someone hands her a black pearl.]
[ Sector 0 | afternoon ]
[Korra's beginning to think that maybe this is her lucky pearl. Whoever said black's an unlucky color is clearly an idiot. This is the first time since she can remember that the tumult in her mind and heart and the restless energy in her body are just...still. This must be what it's like to be Jinora or Tenzin. A still pool which can be disturbed by outside forces but always returns to tranquility. Korra's typical state is more like the ocean — constantly moving, forever being pulled this way and that, until now.
She looks down at the black pearl in her hand, and decides that later she'll get a ring or necklace or something to set it in. She doesn't normally go for jewelry, but this pearl is special.
That's for later. Right now, she's decided to take advantage of her tranquil mood to try meditating. She uses her airbending to (with some difficulty) get up to the top of the PA island. It's a nice place, quiet when they aren't making announcement, and Korra hopes that by being close to that mysterious door, she'll be able to meditate her way into some kind of epiphany.
Or something. Look, at this point anything is worth a shot.
Anyone walking by that afternoon who happens to look up will probably catch sight of a strange girl sitting with unnatural stillness.]
