[ Yeah, they are pretty weird. Even by his world's standards. ] I guess you don't wear sleeves very often, do you? [ Because that's why it was weird, right. ]
[ Her answer doesn't really satisfy his question, but she's suddenly too enthusiastic to think about trying to tether her. From the context, he can at least guess that being multitalented might not be a common thing. The homesick look in her eye as she rambles wistfully on about—what turn into Model Ts in his mind's eye once she starts gushing about the mere concept of electricity—gets a little snort and a grin. ]
[ Sure, she'd mentioned tribes and kingdoms, but now it's really settling in, just how much of a bumpkin this girl is. ]
[ Which only prompts a bigger grin, sorry Korra. Suuure you aren't. Leaning back, Sigma shrugs, making a show of his nonchalance (as if Macha hadn't thrown him for a complete and utter loop). ]
Donno what you're talking about. I had space ships back home.
[ Nothing this grandiose, and certainly nothing he's knowingly been on, but at least he's got a frame of reference, bumpkin! ]
But hey, I've never met anyone that can bend stuff like that. Just a lot of people who wish they could... You win some, you lose some.
I'd take bending the elements over space ships any day.
[No... offense to worlds with space ships. Naga, in the meantime, picks her head up off of the floor, nosing into Korra's hand, either for comfort for Korra's perceived awkwardness, or just desiring to be pet for itself.]
I feel like a sardine in here. What I wouldn't give to be able to metal bend.

I'm not some country bumpkin.
[Except she totally is.]
Space ships and... [She waves her hand, indicating everything,] all of this is weird for anyone!
