A/N: Since the finale, I couldn't help but think of the characters that had been shoved under the rug for the sake of korra and mako, asami being one of them. Thinking about what she had being go through throughout the whole first season made me want to put what she couldve been feeling into words and this is what i felt that might have been going through her mind during the time of the finale or afterwards during the interim b/t then and the start of the next season.
would this even be considered a drabble? o,o a double drabble maybe? meh; either way, enjoy!
She knew she was being petty.
Petty and jealous.
It wasn't like her to make such faces of distaste, to utter such harsh words under her breath, to look upon others with ill thoughts in her head.
No.
That wasn't Asami Sato.
Asami sato was kind and gentle. She was generous and considerate. She didn't belittle others just because she was higher than them in the social hierarchy or richer than them.
Atleast that's what her mother had said who Asami Sato was.
But was that who she was now?
Now that her mother is gone.
Now that she had been thrown into a war.
Now that her father had abandoned her and attempted to kill her.
Now that the man she loved had broken her heart.
Now that she feels so utterly alone.
War, her father, her heartache...
She buried it all down deep in the abyss of her mind.
Being aware of the turmoil in her life only made her feel more hopeless, more empty.
And so she chooses to be petty.
To focus on the least of her problems.
Getting jealous, seeing only her romance woes made everything else almost disappear.
Doing so made what was left less painful, less noticeable, less tangible as if they weren't there at all.
