[For the last few months, she'd been focused on building the home for herself and Asami - creating a useful fortress as a check against the future. Once that was done, she found herself at a bit of a loss. Asami had her work, Mako and Wu were doing their thing, so was Bolin...]

[And she'd avoided fighting here. She'd been tasked to kill beasts - and it would be so simple to do so. Which was why she hadn't. She was certain that all of them had been people, and killing them was all part of some Pthumerian plot she couldn't quite get a handle on. It seemed like their sort of style - the sort of long-term, sneaky corruption of a person's soul they had enjoyed in Deerington. Why should Trench be any different?]

[And that was what Deerington had done, and she'd hated it - she'd been just a weapon there, and the Avatar was much more than that. She was much more than that. And she still had no idea how to be her full self here. And wasn't sure it was possible. But she'd had at least one idea.]

So I'm going to open a shop stall. Move it around Trench, keep myself busy. Custom glassware. Gifts for your special someone, or something for your home, I guess.

I really need a name, though, and it turns out I am TERRIBLE at those. Suggestions, anyone?

Avatar Art!
Avatart?





uhhh maybe not that second one it sounds like fart

[avatar_state]

First one's pretty good. At least I can use it for WHAT I make, right?

[laminae]

it's ok
VL's and Luz's sound a lot classier though

[onerthes]

Ooooh, you could call it a Touch of Glass.
Like touch of class, only with glass?

[The dad jokes have reared their ugly head again.]

That sounds like a lovely idea by the way.

[avatar_state]

Thanks...and that is an awful pun, buuuut I kinda like it. Catchphrase, at the least.

[onerthes]

Puns bad enough to make you groan are a specialty of mine.

What made you think of glass blowing, by the way?

"Korra's Krafts: Glass and gifts?"

[avatar_state]

Oooh I like it.

[imaglyphwitch]

Cool! Let me know which name you decide on and where I can find you!

[prescind]

Glassic Solutions.

( he was not good at this sort of thing either but that one didn't sound bad. )

Or Glassic Gifts to keep the letter theme.

[avatar_state]

Wasn't that a kind of pickle? I swear I saw it in Deerington. Or something like it.

[prescind]

I don't know enough about pickles to know. Sorry. Every pickle is just a pickle to me.

Blow Me.

That's a suggestion, not a weirdly aggressive first thing to say to someone.

[avatar_state]

I mean, I figured? I've made some enemies in my time, none of them introduced themselves that way before.

Lotta suggestions of doom and the like, though.

[hauntedsavior]

Well, yeah, but still bad energy to lead with, you know?

Wish these people talking about gloom and doom all the time knew they sounded like little kids who just walked out of a Hot Topic for the first time.

[prodigalhairess]

oooh, what kind of glassware?
like, anything?
Can you do little sculptures and things like that??

[avatar_state]

Yes! I mean, I started with plates and orbs and things - moved on to plates and decorative shapes for, like, window frames.

Currently trying sculptures though.

[ IT'S HIS TIME TO SHINE, Mako doesn't exactly have a list of pre-prepared name ideas but he sure does take about half an hour to brainstorm only to come back with: ]

Need more info. What kind of glass stuff? Cups or art?

Ideas:

Glassworld

Best In Glass

You sure it's a good idea to start a shop selling the most breakable substance around? Remember cabbage guy?

[avatar_state]

It was either this or stoneworking and I do NOT want to be covered in dust all day. :) And if it breaks, well, then they buy more, right?

Nobody is as eager to replace cabbages. :)

But cups, plates, bowls, decorative sort of panes for windows. And starting on sculptures!

[romancekiller]

I can't help much with names either but you make things out of glass? [being an artist, she is actually really intrigued by this]

[avatar_state]

I'm learning to, at any rate! It helps when I can fuse the glass with my hands.

[truehumili_tea]

You've certainly have clear intentions, as would any customers buying such a unique and wonderful item for another or themselves. A name is important, but what you plan to do is far more, so that you have figured that first is admirable.

What is it that brought you to this decision, perhaps there is a name in that journey?

[avatar_state]

[She's going to just respond, but then, that user name, with that sort of thinking...]

Iroh?

Stay Glassy 😎

It's the kind of thing you say to someone before moving your shop across town

[avatar_state]

Really? Huh, that's a weird one. I didn't know that.
