[KNOCK KNOCK, Mako's home and he has A Question for his brother.]

Bolin, you in there?

[HOW LUCKY FOR YOU, MAKO! Bolin is in there. Here. Whatever. But he's in a goofy mood so instead of calling out a greeting or opening the door, he-

Cups his hand around his mouth and. Whispers loudly. Through the door.]

You shall not paaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaass.

[Mako comes thiiiis close to just barging in through the door, but that probably wouldn't end well for Bolin's face. He'll give him another chance:]

Come on, it's important.

[At least somebody around here respects Bolin's face. I mean geez.]

What's the magic word?

I'm not saying the magic word.

Then your important business must not be so important after all.

Dumplings. That's it, right?

[OH LOOK AT THAT, THE DOOR HAS OPENED. IT'S LIKE MAGIC. haaaaaaa. ha. haaaa.]

I expect my fresh and steamy payment to be delivered within the week.

[Leaning against the door frame.]

So what's up?

[Mako can humor him a quirk of the corner of his lips. Aw, look at that.

But it fades almost as quickly.] There's something I wanted to do with you. Korra and I went over this posting, it was sort of like an introduction to this place... but it said there are some barriers we can't break to get out of here. I want to go check them out, and I'm inviting you with me.

[Man, Mako, you always have to be such a downer, don't you. At least Bolin is perpetually cheerful- er, well, mostly. He raises his eyebrows.]

How kind and considerate of you to include your devoted younger brother in your illicit rendezvous with our City barriers, Mako. I'm touched.

[GRIN.]

Of course I'll go.

Alright. I'll gather the supplies we might need, then we leave bright and early... when I say so. We can't exactly pick a day when the City's gone haywire.
