[And that flame is conjured a little too close to his face for his comfort. Tahno inches aside so that the residual heat from the fire doesn't brush so heavily on his cheek, and he groggily runs his hand through his prominent tuft of hair.
Presently, he isn't wearing his usual eyeliner. Why would he? He's trying to sleep. But interesting how this would be the second time Korra has seen him bare-faced when he rarely shows himself to others as any less than dapper. Grimacing, he fixes the sheets over his lap.]
Were you expecting somebody else? I thought we had an agreement.
[This definitely means she's in the wrong room. Korra lets the flame go out, dropping her hand with a sigh.]
I'm not expecting anyone. I just thought this was my room, okay?
[Her bottom lip's already started to stick out in a pout. In a fit of tiredness? madness? she decides, screw it, she doesn't want to make the trek back to her own actual room and flops back down onto the mattress.]
[He budges because he doesn't have a choice—not that he's in any opposition to having the Avatar in his bed. In fact, she's a welcome surprise.]
You know, if you wanted to share a bed with me, you should have just said something.
[He says this while lying back down, unable to contain his smirk. It's very possible he is on the verge of chasing her away with that sort of remark, but he has to at least dip his toe in the water.]
[But whatever annoyance had been in her voice before evaporates quickly at his words, spoken so frankly. He’d actually sounded serious, and that makes Korra pause more than anything. She glances down at his fingers circling her wrist, then back at him.]
Because there’s no one else around right now?
[Part of her wants to hear the answer. Her expression slowly edges from exasperated to curious.]
[He isn't ready to admit that there's a small part of him who actually kind of values the Avatar as a person. His favorable opinion of her stems from being in her debt and has grown just from being around her more frequently. It isn't often that he spends time with genuine people. The worst part is that she brings out whatever little good he has in him.
So yeah. Maybe he likes her.
Instead of saying so, he leans closer and stops shy of touching noses. Usually this step is simple... and it bothers him that it isn't.]
Korra holds her breath as he moves closer. She doesn't pull her hand away or put more distance between them, opting to stay right where she is, hovering in that pocket of 'almost touching' while she studies his face intently.
He hasn't moved either, as if he's giving her that choice, and that's what makes up her mind in the end. She just hopes she doesn't regret it.
Wordlessly, Korra tilts her head and lets her lips brush his.]
[Tahno reacts to the slightest hint of Korra's lips against his. He presses into her kiss and pulls her in by her shoulder, only a little bit, without any intention of letting her go. His one kiss becomes two when he wants to feel her lips in a different way. He let their kiss linger before drawing back, hand still on her shoulder.]
[At first, she’s too stunned by his immediate response to speak, her mind still trying to process the kiss—no, kisses. A part of her had thought he might pull back as soon as their lips touched and mock her for falling for the bait. That part is silenced, though…for now.
Korra tilts her chin up, a hint of a challenge in her eyes as she replies.]
You shouldn’t have invited me to if you didn’t want it.

no subject
Seriously, do you ever stop talking? Or do you just like the sound of your own voice too much?
[Notice she didn't deny anything--too busy being grouchy or something else?]
no subject
No one is making you stay, Uh-vatar.
[Not that he wants her to go. Half-lidded eyes casting an honest look, he adds in a lowered voice:] But you know, the invitation to stay is open.
[His grip on her wrist loosens, serving little else purpose than to simply touch her.]
