[ Mako sees the first message almost as soon as he wakes up, and shoots back a message that he's sure Korra won't see. If she's already out there, doing her Korra thing, getting involved even when it's not her fight because she's the Avatar and she's Korra and she can't leave well enough alone—
Well, at least she'll do her best. Mako knows that much. He can count on Korra to fight harder than anybody.
So, first, early in the morning, as the sirens sound and the Leviathan breaches: ]
07:15: You'd better come back from this. 07:15: We need you alive, Korra. 07:16: I'll keep an eye on the battle. We've got some people hiding out in the Raccoon Room.
[ And then, he waits. Makes some drinks for the trickle of people flooding away from the shore, watches Wu try to entertain them. Does some of their accounting, tries not to worry, fails.
The second message comes, and this time, Mako responds immediately. ]
later: It worked! I'm proud of you. Also, that was stupid and risky. Still proud. I'll be there. You need anything? Are you hurt?
I'll bring some mushroom buns I've been working on.
Never thought you'd join the army.
[ Simple words to hide the sweep of relief. Another crisis averted, thanks to Korra—at least, that's how it looks in Mako's head. She always prevails in the end, doesn't she? ]

That may have been the ugliest thing I've ever seen.
And bring whatever you want. Say nine?
