No underscores please

Rundown: [community profile] rpanons is an anonymous community for role-play related topics. This place serves as a forum for game discussions, canon discussions, RP solicitations (ATP, game ads, open memes), and advice. The occasional off topic comment is inevitable, but please keep heated social and political topics to their respective communities. Posting them here will only get them frozen. Subsequent threads made to bypass a freeze will then be deleted.

Rules:

Do not post pornographic or shocking images.
Do not share private entries, plurks, chat logs, etc.
Do not use this community as your social/political/hatespeech soapbox.
Do not be redundant. One page does not need three or more threads on one topic/theme.
Do not treat this comm like your personal Plurk or Twitter. Off-topic happens, but it should be open for discussion and not just a play-by-play of your life. No one cares.

thanks, anon, this was some awesome food for thought! especially the bit about earthbending being the way her mother saw her; for some reason i hadn't yet considered it (ah, early days of character pondering). i got into korra very late and haven't really dipped my toe into the fandom so i don't know the prevalant view on the personal importance of bending, but i wanted to explore that in rp over the longterm without necessarily immediately having canonmates to offer hope or a spiritbending korra around to immediately fix it. so, yeah, i definitely wasn't planning for her to tell randoms she just met about it. while i was thinking of giving her a new way to fight, there's no way it'd be good enough in her eyes to totally replace her bending or provide much comfort - just a distraction, like you said.
