The entire design of Asami screams: “This girl is bad” to me. Fandom and shippers do what they do, but there are too many plot hints embedded in the show that suggest there are ulterior motives radiating off the Sato family.
“So you’re dirt poor” is not something a well-spoken, well-dressed, well-educated father of industry says, it’s something you say to debase a person and prime them to do what you want.
The Sato family has Mako and the Fire Ferrets by the balls and not because Mako or Bolin are epsecially important, but because The Avatar is on The Fire Ferrets.
There’s a tragic way this all could end with Bolin’s death (like Devindra has been predicting for weeks) at the hands of the Satos, then Korra is forever scarred knowing her immaturity alone caused…
You know what, I’m taking this too far.
I’ll step back: I really, really, really think Asami will turn out to be bad. If we were really dealing with a love quadrangle, Asami would have gotten her own storyline in last week’s love-heavy episode. She didn’t, because she doesn’t really like Mako (or does, but it’s irrelvant).
Oof. I feel like I might make someone angry with this one.
Oh well. BE THE LEAF!
