Breaking the Internet

Summary:

Korra is a YouTube star, and Kuvira is her camera woman.

Notes:

(See the end of the work for notes.)

Work Text:

"Hey everyone, and welcome back to Korra eats. If you're new here, it's pretty simple. My name's Korra, and I travel the world, trying new foods".
A snort from behind the camera made Korra glare.
"What's so funny Kuv"?

"Your channel's so stupid Kor, who wants to watch you stuff your face for twenty minutes at a time"?

"About ..... 3758 people"? Korra told her long suffering best friend/camera woman Kuvira.

"Seriously"? Kuvira scoffed, before rounding the camera and sitting obnoxiously on her friend's lap.
"Okay first of all, you guys are weird, you seriously like her rambling on? It looks like she's talking to herself half the time! Second, do you not see her talk with her mouth full? Let me tell you. Not. Pleasant. Thirdly I blame every. Single. One. Of. You! After she's finished one of her so called 'videos' (she used air quotes here), the whining I have to deal with because of her 'poorly tummy' is unreal, I mean come on, your 19 Korra, not 5".

"Are you done yet"? Korra asked, sticking her head out from around her muscular friend, "you're kinda hogging my intro"?

"Not yet, I haven't told them about your food baby, or food coma dreams", Kuvira glanced sideways to tell her.

"Aaannnd, you're done". Korra told her, forcefully shoving her friend off her lap, only to land with a thud on their expensive living room carpet.

"Why you little ... ", Kuvira grumbled, as she stood and faced her friend.

Korra raised her hands up in surrender. "Now Kuv, remember your anger management. Count to ten ..... ".

"Because we've been friends since we were babies, I'm going to give you to the count of ten. Nine, eight".

"Oh geez, looks like that's it folks, don't forget to comment on who you think will win in a fight between me and @thegreatuniter over here".

"Five, four".

"Like and subscribe", Korra squeaked, as she slowly started to back out of shot, with Kuvira following menacingly in her wake.

"Two, one" Kuvira's voice started to trail away as the duo left the living room and out into the hallway.

"Enjoy the video ...... and see you next time. I hope!" Korra yelled before the thunderous sounds of her running upstairs could be heard.

"I wouldn't count on that"! Kuvira yelled to the camera, as she gave chase and sprinted upstairs after her younger friend.

It was the most popular vlog @korraeats has ever made.

Infact, the sounds of their distant fight very nearly broke the internet.

The following week, even though Korra had a split lip (from falling up the stairs), and Kuvira's left eye had sealed shut with a massive bruise (from tripping over a napping Naga and bashing her face on the bathroom door knob), both girls were back to there staple, teasing behaviour.

"And until next time" Korra smiled and waved at the camera.

"Stay in school kids, so you can get yourself a proper job" Kuvira talked over her from behind the camera.

Korra rolled her eyes, "like, comment, and do the thing".

"Do the thing"? Kuvira asked incredulously. "That, is the worst catchphrase in existence. Do the thing? Honestly, who writes this rubbish"?

Korra placed her hand over the camera lens, "bbbyyyeee".
