"I'm what!?"

"Korra, calm down," Kya attempted to soothe a frantic Avatar. "I've been a healer for a long time, and I know the signs. Congratulations. You're pregnant." Kya smiled at her.

Korra was dumbstruck. When she went to Kya for a checkup after she and Asami's vacation to the Spirit World, she certainly hadn't been expecting this result. She had taken Asami back to the spirit world as their honeymoon. They had made love for the first time, and visited sites all over the Spirit World that they hadn't been able to reach during their first trip. All in all it had been wonderfully blissful, and, in Korra's opinion, very romantic.

She looked up at Kya, her elbows resting on her knees and her hands hanging limply between her legs. "Are you sure?" There was despair in her voice as it wavered. She could feel the wetness of tears gathering in her eyes, but refused to let them fall.

Kya reached out and took the young woman's hand, a reassuring smile on her face. "I'm sure." She poked Korra's abdomen playfully. "There's definitely a baby growing in there. You're going to be a mother Korra. It's a beautiful thing, and I can't think of two people better suited to raising a child than you and Asami."

Korra let out a long sigh, raking her hands through her hair and down across her face. "But this makes no sense," she argued. "I've only ever been with Asami! And I'm pretty sure that two women can't make a baby. You need a…" She blushed, waving her hand awkwardly. "Ya know…a…penis." She covered her face in embarrassment, whispering the last word. "And I know for a fact that Asami does NOT have one of those. I'm very familiar with her crotch area." She couldn't look at Kya, the blush on her face deepening. "I…probably shouldn't have said that. But you know what I mean! Asami is without a doubt one hundred percent woman!"

"Now, now," Kya soothed her, patting her hand. "I'm not questioning your wife's sexuality Korra. But the fact of the matter is, you're pregnant, no ifs ands or buts about it."

Korra sighed heavily. "I guess so…Oh man, this is so messed up." She dropped her head in to her hands. "We definitely didn't plan for this to happen…How am I gonna tell Asami? What will she think?"

"My best advice," Kya said while putting a reassuring hand on each of Korra's shoulders. "Is to tell Asami the truth. She'll understand, I promise. That's just the way she is."

Korra focused on her breathing, a steady rhythm, a slow in and out. Part of her understood exactly what Kya was saying. She knew Asami would be understanding. Kya was right, that's the way Asami was, sometimes even to the point of madness. Still…a part of her was terrified of the way her wife would react to the news that she was essentially the father of their as yet unborn child. It's not every day that information such as that was dropped in to the CEO's lap after all.


After leaving Kya, Korra made her way to Future Industries on foot. This time of day, Asami would most certainly be hard at work in her office, but this was something that couldn't wait. She had to tell Asami now, before she lost her courage for the act.

She looked up at the sky as she walked. This will be hard, she reasoned. But no matter what Asami's reaction, I have to do this. I have to tell her the truth…even if she ends up hating me forever, and decides to end things with me. Sighing, she looked at the ground, watching her feet as she trudged forwards, placing one foot in front of the other in a slow rhythm.

Korra greeted the receptionist at the front desk warmly as she passed by, and the young woman returned her wave. Ever since she and Asami had announced their relationship publicly, Korra had made many visits to Future Industries Tower, and had befriended much of the workforce there.

Heading across the lobby, she headed to the special elevator that would lead directly to Asami's office. Of course like most of Asami's things, it was colored a shade of red, and Korra just had to shake her head and smile at her wife's familiar tastes. Even after all the years she'd known Asami, the woman had remained consistent if nothing else. It was one of the things Korra loved and admired about her. It only took a moment to insert the special key card Asami had given her, also a shade of red, before she stepped inside. Swiping the key card again, the elevator began its ascent.


Asami looked up from her work when the elevator across the office dinged. She smiled. Only two people in the world had access to that particular elevator. She herself was one of them, and the other was Korra. She was already here in the office so obviously it had to be Korra coming to see her.

Sure enough, when the doors slide open, there's Korra. But Asami frowns. There's something off about her wife. Normally Korra is all smiles and fun times when she comes to, in Korra's words, "Rescue her darling wife from the horrors of corporate monotony and mundaneity." And she wouldn't hear it when Asami tried to convince her of the fact that "mundaneity," is not a word.

"Hey sexy," Asami greeted her wife with a smile when she walked up to the desk. Asami stood up and walked around the desk, enjoying the way Korra still blushed at her greeting, even if she was out of sorts.

"A-Asami…hi," Korra greeted her somewhat awkwardly, seeming half embarrassed, and half troubled. The two exchanged a brief kiss.

"Are you ok," Asami asked her, frowning in concern and rubbing Korra's shoulders. "You seem like there's something on your mind." When Korra still hesitated, Asami spoke again. "You know you can tell me anything right?"

Korra took a deep breath, nodding. "Ok," she began. "Asami my beloved wife and most beautiful woman in the entire world. You know I love you more than anything and would never, ever, EVER do anything against you like cheating on you right?"

Asami raised an eyebrow. "Ok? Why does it sound like I'm not going to like what you're about to tell me?"

"Well I dunno about 'not like,'" Korra made air quotes. "But it may shock you, so maybe you should sit down." She scratched the back of her head nervously.

Asami leaned against the desk, motioning for her to continue.

"Ok," Korra took another deep breath. "Well see, I kinda went to see Kya today cause I've been feeling kind of off lately and I wasn't sure what to make of it and Kya is better at me than healing anyway and I've been late on my cycle and I'm sorta pregnant and you're sorta the father and please don't be angry." Korra let out the remainder of her breath.

Asami stared at her for a while, blinking big and slow twice.

"Asa-" Korra tried, but Asami interrupted her with a raised hand and she went silent.

"So," Asami rubbed the bridge of her nose. "Let me get this straight,"

"But you're not straight," Korra interrupted. "You're married to me remember, and I don't know if you noticed, but I am definitely one hundred percent lady." She wiggled her eyebrows at her wife, squeezing her arms together to make her breasts more noticeable. She blushed and dropped her gaze, scratching the back of her neck as Asami glared at her. "S-sorry. Please continue." She waved her hand.

"Like I was saying," Asami resumed. "You're saying that you're pregnant now because you and I had sex in the Spirit World? I am the 'father' of this child?"

"Basically," Korra replied. "Kya and I think it has something to do with the Spirit World and the fact that I have Raava inside me."

"We-" Asami started, then yelped when Korra started to glow, and with a woosh, the spirit of Raava emerged from within Korra and hovered above the two women, her long tail keeping her connected to the Avatar.

"I believe I can be of assistance in this matter," the spirit declared. "It was I who facilitated the beginning of a new life within Korra. I have been connected to Korra through body and spirit for her whole life, thus I have had a chance to see in to her deepest thoughts and sense her deepest desires, even ones which she herself is not yet aware of. Thus I sensed the desire, deep within Korra, for a child of her blood and manipulated matters as such. When the two of you came together inside of the Spirit World, where my influence is strongest, I was able to assist, tapping in to the spiritual energy there, and therefore a child was formed from the union." With that, the ancient spirit retreated back within the Avatar.

"So," Asami spoke up, breaking the silence. "That happened."

"Yep," Korra agreed, smiling wide and toothy at Asami. "Congratulations Asami. You are the baby daddy!" She pointed her fingers at Asami, eagerly."

"Oh," Asami said. Korra noticed her eyes were looking a bit glazed. "I see."

"Asami?" Korra stepped forward in concern.

Asami fainted, and Korra was barely able to catch her before the CEO's head hit her desk.

"Asami! Asami," Korra called, shaking her lightly. It was no use. The older woman was out like a light. "That figures." Korra sighed deeply, shaking her head, and bringing Asami over to one of the couches in the sitting area. She laid the woman down and grabbed a pillow and a blanket from one of the cabinets, positioning them appropriately.

She stroked Asami's head affectionately, leaning down and placing a kiss on her forehead. "Don't worry 'Sami," she soothed the unconscious woman. "You're gonna make a great baby daddy. I'll just have to convince you when you wake up." She smiled down at the love of her life. "I love you," she whispered. Asami curled in tighter, reaching out and taking hold of Korra's hand even in her sleep, making Korra smile.
