I wish we got to see more Asami and Korra interacting period. I mean lots and lots of them interacting, and being friends that don't let Mako come between them.
There seem to be two camps, the Mako can do no wrong camp, and the Mako must die camp, and for me, I want to see him get called out on his jerky behavior, and maybe learn something from it, and have the show maybe explore a little bit how his and bolin's childhoods molded them to be as they are now, but I also wish fandom would look at his behavior and remember he's a teenager with minimal dating experience, and we all do stupid, selfish, cowardly things at that age, and hurt people, and get hurt ourselves, and then learn better. I want him called out, sure, but I don't want him vilified for it. Girls shouldn't be vilified for it either, and vilifying boys for it won't help matters. I think you and I are caught in an uncomfortable middle there.
