Tahno felt as though everything should have and would have been his if he saw fit. The first time he had met Korra, in a small candy shop, he liked her and wanted her for himself.
"How much do you cost?" he remembered asking her, "My dad will pay any amount." Korra had looked at him with blatant disbelief, and her lips had twisted into a scowl.
"You can't buy me you snobby bastard," she said as she jabbed her then small and chubby finger into his chest.
"What?" he remembered saying, "Then what do you want?"
Korra shook her head and rolled her eyes, "Friendship takes time, you swell.. no, you pill." With that, she began to turn, but he grabbed her arm.
"I have that. Time I mean. How much of it do you want?"
Korra laughed loudly, so un-lady like, but he loved it anyway, "All of it," she said. He went to the candy shop every day after that.
