Outwardly, he wasnt too devistated about what had happened. Inwardly, he was a seething, wasted mess of fury and hatred. Mostly at himself, but the two-timing Avatar and the treacherous brother came in at a very close second.

The next Pro-bending match was almost a waste and a dud, and Bolin considered just skiving off this whole stupid game while he swam around in the pit, but for the sake of keeping up pretenses, he 'forgave' Mako for his perfidy, watched as Korra won the match, then sat quietly as he allowed her to heal his injured shoulder.

She apologized for what she had done, her blue eyes seeking acknowledgement. Bolin kept his head ducked just long enough to force the ice of hatred in his eyes to thaw into something passable by outward standards.

He told her he forgave her.

Just another pretense to keep up, was all.

No big.
