Korra was talking animatedly with one of her male friends about the game. She was clearly very opinionated about the whole thing. While her favourite team wasn't playing, she was on the side of the Ravens. The 49ers was her friend's favourite -- which she wouldn't let him live down. Clearly, since she was currently waving a chicken wing in his face.
She thought she was winning the argument when she saw Mako walking around with his drink. Ugh, yeah right he was here. Korra made a face and a sort of pained-sounding groan, which her roommate and (possibly soon to be former-) friend Amanda noticed, and then noticed the guy.
The second the girl's eyes lit up, Korra knew she liked him. Amanda had this way, and she was about to warn her friend when she asked: "Do you know that guy? He's cuuute!"
"Unfortunately," Korra nodded, turning her eyes to Mako every once in a while.
"I take it you don't like him?"
"Ugh, no. He's an asshole."
"Perfect!"
And before Korra could warn her, Amanda hopped off her stool and approached Mako. Oh god, this would be terrible. Korra put her forehead into her palm and sighed, shaking her head.
