Author's note: A collection of short one-shots depicting the times Korra introduces Asami to people...and ends up embarrassing herself. Originally posted on my Ao3.

The first time is when they're still in the spirit world.

Korra surprisingly finds Iroh with ease, using what Asami likes to call her "special avatar powers." The gentle old man has a table set up with a teakettle in the middle and animal-like spirits gathering around. Korra notices that the frogs from the last time she saw Iroh aren't there.

"Ah!" Iroh says, standing up. "Avatar Korra, what a lovely surprise!"

Korra grins and walks over, Asami trailing behind her. "I'm so happy I found you, Iroh!"

"What brings you here, Korra?"

"Well…" Korra's grin shifts into a more sheepish one. Asami doesn't say anything and stands behind her. "I don't know if you've heard on this side of the spirit world, but a new portal opened up."

A few of the spirits sitting around the table murmur to each other.

"It's…a pretty long story, but I'm not actually here for any real purpose. We actually came to take a break."

Asami looks up, feeling suddenly bashful as Iroh's eyes zero in on hers. She puts on a small smile and moves so she's standing next to Korra instead of behind her. She has so far, for the most part, been unfazed by the spirits floating, walking, and flying around them, but here she is in the presence of a real person…or at least, someone who was a real person over fifty years ago.

She looks to Korra, expecting an introduction, but Iroh is the first to speak.

"And who is this you are traveling with?"

"Oh! Right. Uh. This is my…Asami. This is Asami."

Asami looks straight ahead, ignoring the look of embarrassment on Korra's face. She's a lot more used to social interactions than Korra, and she extends her arm in a friendly gesture and says, "It's very nice to meet you, Iroh."

Iroh shakes her hand and says, "It's nice to meet you too, Korra's Asami." He lets go and laughs loudly at his own joke, holding his hands over his stomach.

Asami purses her lips and looks down at Korra, who looks like she might just melt into the spirit world ground.
