Suyin's Chef - Tumblr Posts
YA'LL... So I was cleaning out some old stuff, and I came across my copy of The Legend of Korra: An Avatar's Chronicle. Then, I decided on a whim to read Lin's letter to Korra. Well, something gave me pause.
Why is Lin mentioning specifically visiting this random chef in her letter to Korra lmaoo? "Ridiculous (affectionate) chef," she says. Unless...
Here we have Lin attempting to act natural after Mako just called her out for "sleeping for 16 hours." Right... holed up in the guest house for 16 hours ;)
Keep in mind, the scene right after this is Lin sipping her kalenutsco. Before slipping out the back of the guest house, consider the chef saying, "Meet me in the dining room, bby grl, let's get you rehydrated."

The Chief and the Chef.... ayooooo.
The more I think about Chief/Chef, the more I like it, lol.
Lin has a casual tryst buddy that she gets to see when she is in Zaofu. Suyin is oblivious because she would never fathom her "uptight" sister would be interested in a former pirate. Lin gets the slight thrill of the scandal and gets to exchange meaningful glances while he serves their meals.
Most importantly, he is a chill dude around her own age (maybe a little younger). He isn't trying to push anything. AND, when she comes to visit, he always makes sure to cook all her favorite stuff.
Bonus: He's got big biceptsssss and forearms and can lift her up like a feather.
Why this also works: As a former pirate, he definitely has the nerve and isn't afraid or intimidated by her. He can tell the bark from the bite essentially.
Since he has worked at the Zaofu estate for well over a decade, if not from the beginning, he is privy to everything that has gone on over the years, especially since he talks with all the service workers behind the scenes. This provides an endless amount of entertaining dialogue as he regales all of Suyin's less than glamorous, and sometimes morally dubious, blunders from the start of Zaofu. He straight up roasts her for being a bit full of it sometimes, lol.
Ultimately, it's totally just a "we are having fun" thing and they are both good with that.
The Chief and The Chef - Ep1. Missed Meal
Buy me a coffee☕?/Art Tag More on Chief/Chef 1 2 3 4
An pregnant Suyin has tried the best food possible and has been told that the person responsible is a hopeless pirate.
Did that stop her? No, she went all out and got a meeting, however the subject is dissolved.

I was watching TLOK again and I decided to give lore to that cook (And to Suyin's past).
Now it seems so obvious to me that the guy was flirting with Lin with that juice thing that I now have as HC that she is his celebrity crush and he is happy to interact with her in the future.
(The chef will be called Cheng now, his companions are Mayu (The red-haired woman) and Pion (The one with the hat))
So Suyin decided to do an earthquake drill and everyone had to go to their assigned spots and then listen to the regulatory speech.
- Huan approached his aunt to tell her something and only ended up falling asleep on her back.
- Opal stays next to Cheng because that's what she always does in drills (and falls asleep too)
- Lin will kill her sister for making her wear ridiculous pajamas and then forcing her out.
- Cheng only ✨exists✨ is miraculously standing

My experts say that Tumblr does authorize then contemplate, to its credit.

I wanted to make Lin more muscular but hey, at least I could fill her with scars
