I just finished rewatching Legend of Korra, and now my writer brain is having thoughts™. Particularly Korrasami thoughts. I don't know if anyone's already came up with this, but seeing a post of an older Korra greeting the next Avatar inspired me - What if the next Avatar was Korra and Asami's daughter?

So they ask Bolin to be the surrogate father, with Opal's approval, and Korra gets pregnant. The first half of the pregnancy goes well, and Korra and Asami are so excited for their first child. But then things start going wrong in the second half of the pregnancy, and everyone is worried about Korra's declining health. Of course, Korra being Korra, she pushes through the pregnancy despite all the risks it poses, and as the actual birth rolls around, everyone's worst fear has come true. Korra dies in childbirth. Thanks to Bolin being the surrogate father, the child is born an earth bender, the next element in the cycle, so Raava, grieving Korra's death in her own way, chooses Korra's daughter to be the next Avatar, though of course Asami and the others won't learn this until a few years later when the girl starts bending more then one element.

I don't know if anyone's going to be interested in this, but I just think it's such a neat idea, and could make for a really cool au
