Banyan Tree Resort, Seychelles, Thursday [Morning and Afternoon]

Hopefully, everyone had packed their things well and not left anything behind in South Africa, because it was time to explore Seychelles! The staff of the Banyan Tree were ready to help Fandom's visitors with anything they might need - including making sure everyone remembered their umbrellas, because while the morning was nice and clear with a temperature of 27C/80F, it was going to get up to 30C/86F later in the day, with possible thunderstorms.

But hey, there was a whole new resort to explore if the weather didn't fully cooperate!

Korra laughed even as the water hit her. She hadn't been able to just do this kind of pure, silly play in a long time.

A thought struck her and still grinning, she took a deep breath and dived under the surface.

Jackson did not like the look of that.

He immediately scrambled backwards a bit, but moving upright in water was slow, at best.

Jackson was wise to try and get away, but Korra didn't even need her bending for quick underwater swimming. See, fair!

Sorry, Jackson, you had an Avatar trying to duck you.
nomoresportscars: ([neg] Hey watch it!)

And not unsuccessfully! There were a few expletives, and a lot of flailing and water flying about.

Embarrassing.

Since trying to laugh underwater would have ended badly, Korra surfaced again. Yes, just to laugh at Jackson.

In time to see Jackson still sputtering and wiping water from his eyes.

He didn't look too pleased, but he also didn't seem to be moving in to retaliate.

Korra didn't seem too concerned with any potential retribution. She was in her element...literally.

"How very elementary school of you."

Of course, dry insults like that probably worked better if the person on the receiving end had the right frame of reference.

Just a little, yeah.

"Was that a pun?" she asked, trying to parse the insult. "You know, element, Water Tribe, water?"

Jackson squinted at her, about equally confused. "What? No." He wasn't going to let his confusion keep him from seeming like she was the idiot here. "No, elementary school, ages six to eleven?"

Yeah, someone had spent ages four to seventeen in a secure compound, not school. "I was slearning bending from Master Katara?" Which supposed could be vaguely related to their current situation, since waterbending.
