Title: Good Cop, Bad Cop
Rating: M
Description: Makorra oneshot. Prompt: handcuffs. Mako comes home to find Korra has made a mess of their apartment and feels that an interrogation is in order. But he doesn’t expect when Korra turns the tables on him. Dom!Korra and slightly sub!Mako. Smut, smut everywhere.
A/N: What did I just write? For the Makorra-Nation Prompt: Handcuffs
Korra wasn’t sure how she ended up in the position she was in, but she wasn’t complaining. Mako had pinned her down on the bed, taking his handcuffs and locking her hands together above her head. She smirked at his enthusiasm to her suggestion just a moment ago after he’d come home to flooded apartment. When he asked Korra what happened she just shrugged and remarked that it wasn’t her.
“Korra you’re the only one here. And pipes just don’t burst through the wall, from the bathroom into the living room and certainly not after the curtain just seemed to ‘spontaneously combust’.”
She gave Mako her most innocent look, “But it did.”
He quirked an eyebrow, unamused.

Saw this playing BF3 just now. And of course the tagline when you first start playing is “Prepare to be Equalized”.

I see Mako as the type of boyfriend who believes his controlling, manipulative, and co-dependent relationship with his gf isn’t a problem because he also treats her amazing and does a lot of nice, supportive, wonderful things for her. He knocks down her self-esteem and manipulates her then treats her like a princess, abusing her in a way that draws her closer to him and forms co-dependency. He sees his overbearing behavoirs as proof that he cares about their relationship and finds excuses for it - it was a tense situation, I wasn’t thinking, there was a war going on, I had a tough childhood - and always apologizes incompletely and in a way that garners sympathy for himself.
He’s blind to criticism and listens to it just to shut up whoever’s got beef with him. He’s constantly reconstructing and pushing his limits and never truly believing when people tell him he has problems, because they obviously don’t know the full story, they don’t know how great he is to her, etc. He’s unable to see himself change and notice the increasing danger his behavior poses.
He does love her, but he’s so concerned with how she makes him happy and how she isn’t doing x, y, and z and how her complaints and problems relate to him and hinder him that he ends up less wanting to benefit her for her sake and wanting to benefit her so she can once again benefit him.
This paints Mako as a complete monster, but the scary part is, he probably doesn’t even know he’s doing it. His girlfriend - hopefully not Korra, poor baby D: - may not see it for what it is, and if she’s strong enough to call him out on it, he finds a way to manipulate her until she’s back in his control, all while believing he’s doing the right thing, because his intentions are honestly good but he’s so concerned with control and his own comfort that he fails to consider hers.
I also see him as a denialist who frequently fails to attribute the consequences to his own actions and thinks self-pity and depression (both of which I can see him suffering from) exempt him from criticism because “he feels bad for what he did”. He uses blame as a coping mechanism and rather than solve a problem in his relationship, he deals with specific events by saying “it’s because of this, BLAME GOES HERE, we’re done.”
I can cite a lot of examples from the episodes to back up my thinking, but anyone who’s bothered to read this wall of text is probably an avid enough Avatard to know where I’m coming from, anyways.
I really like the Abuse Cycle fic, because while I felt it was more “abuse as it relates to people in general” rather than “abuse as it relates to Mako and how he is in relationships”, it called out a lot of things that are frequently glossed over in fantastic/idealized media portrayals of relationships, the most well-known and prominent right now being Edward Cullen/Bella Swan and Christian Grey/Ana Steele. I feel like it’d be even better if the fic went into how it is from Mako’s point of view, where he’s honestly completely fucking oblivious to what he’s doing.
It was about time I pitched in on the whole Mako-hate-brigade, eh?

Wow.
I…cannot remember the last time something I read made me feel this horrible.

I can’t remember if this was specifically stated in the series. I know it’s possible for siblings to bend different elements (like Aang and Katara’s family for example) but…I don’t remember them giving very specific details on their family.

Hello all you taxpayers.
Sooooo…
Was I the only one who did a Snoop Dog dance when Mako shot lighting at Amon while being blood bended?
Yeah I’m the only one. How in the world was Amon able to survive that? That guy is not human.
Heavy analysis ahead, plus some announcements for my lovely followers and followers to be :)
Makes sense. :D

The majority of the two episodes were great, but I felt the end was a bit….rushed. And weird.
