"Oh, I don't know," Korra says with a wrinkle of her nose. "I've heard of loving parents who still made... some pretty big mistakes."
She's never had any issues with her own parents. If anything, she wants to emulate their example as much as possible — supportive, but capable of encouraging restraint whenever Korra's needed it. But neither of them ever tried to hold Korra back from her dreams, and what she wanted to accomplish as the Avatar. It's not easy, she knows. Her parents have always preferred a simple, contained life, and having their daughter turn out to be the Avatar gave them anything but.
Korra raises her free hand to Naruto's jaw, cupping it gently. Not trying to pull his gaze away from wherever he's concentrating on at the moment.
"But we're both pretty open to taking advice, so I don't think we'll have that problem. And we've got friends who'll help us. You know, maybe I'll freak out in a couple of days, but right now... I'm pretty excited. I kind of hope we have a boy."
