Korra and the Cookie
Korra is the Avatar, the master of all four elements. When she calls, the wind answers. When she orders, the earth obeys. There is very, very little that she cannot do, which might go some way to explaining some of her more… eccentric behaviour.
"Korra, why are you waving your hands at that cookie?" Asami asks. This is not the first time she's walked in on Korra doing something strange. Only last week, she caught the Avatar trying to fix a crack in the kitchen counter using a combination of earthbending and firebending. It did not go well, and they are lucky that Asami can easily afford a new kitchen counter.
"Just give me a second," Korra replies. "I know I can do this. I think that cookie is still moist enough for me to waterbend it over here."
"Right…" Asami walks over to the table and picks up the cookie. "Or you could just walk over there and get it."
"You're missing the point. No one has ever used bending to control a cookie before. I'd be the first person in history to do it."
"I see – and that's important to you, being the first cookiebender in history?"
Korra nods. "Just think of the possibilities. I always have to get up when we want cookies. I could just bend them over to us." She smirks. "And if I can bend cookies, who knows what else I'll be able to bend? And don't think I haven't noticed that robot you're trying to build, the one you can remote control to get cookies."
Asami blushes. "How did you find out about that?"
"I saw the blueprints for it on your desk." Korra's eyes twinkle. "So don't try to take the high road with me, Ms Sato."
"Fine." Asami puts the cookie back on the desk with a flourish. "You can continue to work on your cookiebending if I can continue working on my robot." She purses her lips. "Or I could build a regular robot and you could metalbend it to get cookies for us."
Korra laughs. "Well, that could work too."

Author's Notes
As always, I do not own Legend of Korra. I am not making any money off of this either.
Who needs bloodbending when you can cookiebend?
As always, I appreciate feedback. Reviews and comments are welcome.
