Glasses

Korra did not trip over a lot.

Then again, it wasn't every day that she saw Asami in reading glasses.

Asami. In. Reading. Glasses.

Truly, the Spirits had blessed her for all of the hard work she'd put in over the years.

"Are you all right?"

Korra was well aware of the fact that she was smiling like an idiot, but it was hard not to smile when Asami was looking down at her with her reading glasses perched on the tip of her nose. Korra wasn't sure if it was more adorable or sexy, so she decided to come up with a better word to describe a superb combination of the two. Her brilliant mind came up with adorexy.

"I'm fine." Korra continued to smile like an idiot and scratched the back of her head. "So… um… when did you get those?"

"Those?" Asami asked. Korra pointed at her glasses. "Oh, you mean my glasses?"

"Yeah, those." Korra's idiotic smiling continued. Asami was so damn adorexy.

"Well, I've been doing a lot of paperwork lately, especially since there are all these new deals and agreements to finalise. You'd be amazed by how much fine print there is. It's absurd. My optometrist said I should try using reading glasses to reduce the strain on my eyes." Asami frowned. "I… uh… they look okay, right?"

They looked more than okay, Korra thought. They looked adorexy.

"Yes!" Korra blushed as she realised that she'd yelled. "I mean you look fine. I mean you look great. I mean you look adorexy. I mean… yeah. Awesome. Whatever. I think I'll shut up now."

Asami laughed. "Adorexy? I don't think that's even a word, Korra. And do you have a thing for me in glasses?" She folded her arms under her chest and leaned down to really look over her glasses at Korra. "Do you?"

Korra tried not to stare. She really did, but it was impossible. This was Asami, and she was wearing glasses. It was like the Spirits had delved deep into her mind and found a way to make Asami even more awesome. The only thing missing now was a bubble bath, a bottle of wine, and some candles. Oh, and Asami was wearing too many clothes.

"Korra, are you fantasising about us having sex again because I asked you a question and you still haven't answered?" Asami smile was wickedly beautiful.

"Is there any answer I can give that doesn't make me sound like a total weirdo?"

"No, but you're lucky that I happen to find your weirdness quite charming. Now, do you have a thing for me in glasses?"

Korra made a face. "I might have a tiny thing for you in glasses."

"Define tiny."

"Well, if you think of the walls of Ba Sing Se as tiny then, yes, I have a tiny thing for you in glasses."

Asami chuckled. Oh, Korra could listen to her chuckle all day. "Is that so?" She looked around for a moment. They were alone in her office, and the door was locked. A smirk crossed her lips. She pushed Korra back onto the floor and then straddled the other woman's waist. Still smirking, she plucked her glasses off her face and put them on Korra. "Hmm… I guess I've got a thing for you in glasses too."

"Uh… okay?"

Asami began to unbutton her blouse. "Leave those on, Korra. You really do look great with glasses on."

"Since when have you worn glasses, Korra?" Tenzin asked.

The Avatar would have tripped over if Asami had reached out to steady her. "Uh, I only started wearing them just recently."

"I thought your vision was fine. Were you injured on a mission?" Tenzin's expression was one of fatherly concern. "It must be difficult to heal your own eyes. I can certainly arrange for a skilled healer to –"

"It's okay!" Korra blurted, waving her hands around. "I mean… my eyes are fine. I'm just wearing these as a fashion statement."

"A fashion statement?" Tenzin pursed his lips. Did young people these days wear glasses even when they didn't have to? "Well, I suppose they do make you look more distinguished."

"Yes," Asami murmured, her voice soft enough that only Korra could hear her. "You could also say that they make you look more adorexy."

Author's Notes

As always, I do not own Legend of Korra. I am not making any money off of this either.

Dorky Korra is the best. And, hey, I like making up words. Seriously, I think both of them would look great in glasses. But who do you think would look better in glasses? I'd vote Asami.

As always, I appreciate feedback. Reviews and comments are welcome.
