It was pretty hilarious. And mortifying. And the teasing! You know Korra and Asami are his exes, right? And they were right there.

[ Wu's face flushes hot just thinking about it. He's not embarrassed being with Mako, not at all, but it was still embarrassing to be so emotional in front of people he respects so much ]

Ah... thanks. I'm glad you think so. I'm really trying! Or I was. I want to be a good King while I am one. Or was one? It's all very confusing. But my family, they never really did right by our people, and I want to change that.

I guess the other me will do that now.

[ His eyes scan the boardwalk. There is in fact a bench near the end where they are, and Wu makes for it. His body feels exhausted from the water, from the fear, from running, from supporting Varian's weight ]

Okay. If you're sure. I, I have no idea how that happened.
