Mako really only has 2 flirting tactics.
In Book 1, he insulted Korra until she fell in love with him.
Also in Book 1, he just was sugar baby until Asami fell in love with him.
In Book 4, he combined these two tactics until Wu …

Whatever Wu said Mako clearly liked it. I wonder what do You think Wu whispered into Mako's ear?
Wu is smooth with his words even though he uses a lot of them 😉
Also I forgot to change the hand scar after flipping the image of course of course 😂

okay so i know how much we adore Grumpy Mako but i want to call attention to something i’ve noticed during a rewatch of books 1&2
mako is actually superrrr physically affectionate with the people he dates. he’s cuddling and hugging asami, cradling korra in his arms, blowing kisses to asami during a pro bending match, feeding korra cotton candy by hand. like, the guy doesn’t mind some PDA
so what i’m saying - i want more sappy, cuddly mako in wuko fics

I love korrasami and wuko because who said WLW/MLM rep had to be gay men/lesbian women in love, having to deal with flirting from the opposite gender. No I want disaster bi people who decided to be in a gay relationship cause they love the person and society can go fuck itself.

Legend of Korra AU starring Prince Wu and Mako.
One is a pirate king, leading his fleets on raids across the Sea of Japan and the South China Sea.
The other is a master chef, who specializes in North Sulawesian spice mixes.
They fall in love, driving bigots into a frenzy.
A Woke Wokou Woku Wuko AU if you will.

10, 15, 25 for wuko :)
Omggg okay I'm very excited to do this for Wuko!!! Thank you anon! :)
10. Describe their first date.
I think that Wu would try go all out on their first date (I'm literally imagining a scenario very similar to Kurosawa and Adachi's first date for those who are familiar with any adaptation of Cherry Magic lol). He'd probably try to make everything perfect - they'd spend the day shopping for expensive outfits, fly over Republic City on a sky bison/blimp, then go to the fanciest restaurant in town.
Of course, Mako would end up having a shitty time, and afterwards they'd have a talk about how neither of them had much fun - Mako because all of the rich people stuff felt superficial to him, and Wu because he was so focused on everything being perfect that he didn't take the time to truly pay attention to Mako and notice he was feeling uncomfortable. Wu would apologize, and then Mako would take him to a cheap hole-in-the-wall place that he likes (, and they'd do the things Mako likes to do, which are much more low-key (which Wu has never really experienced). From that point forward, they would make an agreement to try and do things they both like to do on future dates.
15. Do they always say "I love you" before leaving?
Wu almost always says it first, but sometimes Mako gets to it before him. This of course makes Wu very happy. Mako of course always says it back when Wu says it first :)
25. Do they have any hobbies they share?
I think that, at first, it would seem like there's not really any interests that they both have in common, but eventually they would slowly start introducing the other to things they like and end up both getting really into them.
For Mako, I'd imagine his thing is watching probending - Wu wouldn't be interested at first, but he'd make an effort to start learning more about it, and eventually become just as big of a fan as Mako (and probably start buying a bunch of merch for his favorite team lol).
For Wu, I imagine him as being a huge theatre kid, so he'd probably start dragging Mako to musicals and operas, and eventually Mako would begin to appreciate them and even look forward to them too.
Also, I don't know if drag shows exist in the world of Avatar, but I headcanon that they do and I 100% believe that Wu would be super into them, either just going to them or being in them. I would LOVEEE to write a fic someday about Wu convincing Mako to let him dress him up in drag lol. Maybe the rest of the Krew could join in on it too.
Gahhh this was literally so much fun to do!! To anyone else who sees this, pls feel free to send me more of these (for Zukaang, Korrasami, Rangshi, or even Wuko again) :)

I am a firm believer in the inherent eroticism of buddy comedies. And there are some fantastic fan works. And I have my own world of headcanon and thoughts. And one doesn’t even have to squint to see the subtext in Ruins of Empire. But what I love so much about Wuko is how well it works within canon and how well Wu and Mako actually fit together. Their character arcs and motivations blend together so well and they influence and care for each other in a way that I just think is really lovely.
Because Mako’s influence on Wu is fairly obvious and stated in the show. He’s there to help bring Wu down to earth and help him be ready to take over the Earth Kingdom. He’s the first person to treat Wu as a person and not royalty or fame and really makes him question his beliefs and values. And Wu relies so heavily on Mako in Book 4 and is so explicit in his affections.
But Wu is also so good for Mako and really compatible with his characteristics and arcs. Arguably the most important, or at least most obvious, character trait of Mako’s is Mako as protector. He raised Bolin and kept him alive on the streets. He joined a gang to protect Bolin. He did probending to have money to protect Bolin. His main motivation throughout the show is to protect the people he loves, the city he loves, and the rest of the world — in that order. I think his need to protect is one of the big things that led to the downfall of his relationships with Korra and Asami. For him, caring for and loving someone means protecting them — in a way that Korra and Asami did not need. But if you pair him with Wu, who not only needs but also wants this protection, then he’s not going to be in a place where he’s constantly undermining the independence and ability of his partner.
But even beyond that, Wu is a really good partner for Mako. Korra (and Asami to a lesser extent) showed care for Mako the same way Mako did for her, and in consequence they undermined and undervalued each other. But Wu takes care of Mako in a different way than Mako takes care of him. Forcing him to relax with smoothie breaks and encouraging him to talk and (and I can’t emphasize this enough) listening to his advice and opinions. Wu lets Mako give him advice and actually listens to his thoughts, something that Korra just didn’t do when they dated (not Korra slander — Book 2 was a lot). So even while Wu clings and plays damsel in distress, he lets Mako be more than his role as protector, without demanding that he abandon that core part of his identity.
And I just think that’s really neat. There aren’t many other non-canon ships that I think are so compatible within canon. Even with how underdeveloped Wu’s character is in Book 4, I think their characters work unbelievably well together. They just fit and lift each other up.

Wu on Mako:
— He is the strongest, sexiest and most intelligent man I have ever met in my life. I want to be his friend. —Why can't I act normal around him? -Hates me. —He doesn't hate me! —Okay, he's a disaster as a boyfriend, but that doesn't dissuade me from loving him. —He is human, he has defects. —How could he continue to be such a good person after everything he suffered? — He is the strongest and most stubborn person I have ever met in my life. I want to protect him from all the evil in the world, like he did with me. I feel bad for not being able to do it. I want to return the favor. —He has no right to look so edible at forty. —I love him, not just sexually, but deeply. I hope he doesn't notice, I don't want to lose everything we have. — He realized, and as he suspected, he doesn't feel the same, but he still loves me, that's enough for me. —Maybe I'm doing more harm than good. He should go away for a while. —He loves me! It's not a dream, he really loves me. —Hmm… how tasty his lips are. They are addictive. I can't stay away from him for long and he seems happy with my presence. -This is paradise. -Stupid bastard! Why did you have to play the hero? —You weren't playing, you were my hero. I can't believe how intertwined your life was with mine. Life goes on, but they took the color out of it. I never felt pain like this. —I see your face everywhere, remains of your actions like ghosts. Maybe I should walk away. —Going away didn't work. I have decided to make your legacy my life, until the day we meet again. —Hello darling, I'm back.
