...oh, you've reached Hiro Hamada. Whatever. Still busy!'

[OH GOD WHY THIS HE'S TOO YOUNG TO DIE BY POLAR BEAR DOG. But no, it's fine actually because while there's a yelp from Hiro as he hits the floor he's trying not to laugh even as Naga sits there wagging her tail. He looks around the giant animal up at his friend, playfully narrowing his eyes.]

I've kinda got a hunch you weren't going to warn me at all. [Which is fine. He's petting Naga's head briefly before squirming to get up.] Naga, off. We gotta go.

[braavado]

Now what gave you that idea?

[Korra's smile widens briefly in mirth before she reaches down and tugs him onto his feet.]

C'mon, girl, Hiro and I have some work to do. [Naga turns her attention to Korra, whining and headbutting the girl's side.] Oookay, okay! You can come with us, but you're staying outside the library.

[zerotohiro]

Funny little feeling. [But up on his feet he goes and he's even making a show of dusting himself off, even if his hand goes back to pet Naga's flank since that's probably all he can reach.]

It's not a bad idea to take her with us just in case we need some help. I brought some back-up, too. [He nods behind him where he'd (thankfully) left a small red rolling suitcase out of Naga's path.] With everything that happened the last couple of days, I'm not taking any chances. [He moves to grab the handle of the case and gestures for girl and polar bear dog to follow.] Come on.

[braavado]

Good point. Naga's gotten me out of some tight spots before.

[Korra leans over to squint at the suitcase he brought along.]

Wait, is that Baymax? I thought it was weird that he wasn't with you.

[zerotohiro]

[He grins down at the suitcase.] Yup. Tadashi designed his charging station to also be portable and I added more durable wheels here to roll him around. It's a lot easier and faster to carry him and then activate him when we get there.

[braavado]

Handy. [Korra whistles sharply, and Naga comes trotting up beside the two of them eagerly.]

Doesn't it take a while to get him inflated again, though?

[zerotohiro]

Just a couple of seconds. The original design allowed him to pop up in a short amount of time so that time isn't wasted in an emergency. [With Naga at their side he's going to start leading them down and out of the complex.] It helps a lot considering he's not that great at running.
