Summary
Kintsugi is the Japanese art of repairing broken pottery by mending the areas of breakage with lacquer dusted or mixed with powdered gold, silver, or platinum; As a philosophy, it treats breakage and repair as part of the history of an object, rather than something to disguise or be ashamed of. It represents growth past personal trauma, and the value of imperfection.
Modern AU where Asami runs a ramen shop and Korra is a hot mess. Both women are trying to get back to some sense of normalcy, if that’s still possible.

Summary
"Lately, she's been losing herself in more and more romantic thoughts. It’s become an obsession. The start of senior year had turned their relationship into a ticking time bomb. At the end of all this, they would probably go their separate ways, and she would have lost her chance to come forward. Not that she had ever planned too, but she hated the idea of having regrets. She hated even more the idea of losing Korra. Whether it was because of a stupid crush, or because they would go to different universities. Asami never wanted to live a life where she didn’t see Korra every day."
Or, Asami is in love with Korra, and is terrified of the ramifications.
"If we want the rewards of being loved we have to submit to the mortifying ordeal of being known"

Summary
He paused a moment, let her finish, then cocked one incredibly bushy eyebrow at her as she turned back to him. “Need a job?”
Talking to strangers with white vans on the side of the road about her very personal, very recent lack of a job was crossing several lines of comfort. “Um - yes, somewhat. But I’m fine.”
Just as she was snatching up her helmet to flee, he rummaged around in a pocket of his frayed jeans for a moment, his tongue stuck out in concentration. Like a magician revealing a rabbit from his hat, with a flourish Bumi produced a small rectangle of paper. “Well, if you want a job, let me know. I’m looking for an all around handyman for a school. A private school.”
“Um.” He handed her the business card, one end torn, the opposite end folded over. A mysterious brown stain nearly concealed the business name - Republic City Boarding School. “Thanks.”

Summary
Eventually the sounds would always lead her back to those warm summer days, those days filled with questioning glances of curious, guarded eyes. Summer days that slowly faded into fall, and slowly faded into lingering touches, into determined eyes and words. Those days that had begun as silent and structured, but ended with plucks of untuned cords and low, raspy vocals.
