If nothing else, Korra's memory of her first probending training session with Bolin is more than enough to convince her of the truth of his statements. His type of bending is different. His reasons for bending and the end results have always been different. In many ways, learning probending has helped Korra's understanding of bending overall as a practice; it only stands to reason that the other way around would apply as well. Lips pressed thinly together, she nods, the gesture resolute — even if this doesn't lead them directly to a solution, the two of them can improve one another through teamwork and by sharing one another's strengths.

"We could teach each other. And I mean, I'm not just saying this to get out of meditating or whatever, since I think we definitely — I definitely — still need to do that," Korra says, tilting her head back and forth in thought. "But the two of us can teach each other more of what we know. The only reason I became a decent probender was because you started showing me the ropes and helped me think about bending in a totally different way than the White Lotus did for all those years. It's worth a shot. Definitely."
