Varrisami

Varrisami is the het ship between Iknik Blackstone Varrick and Asami Sato from The Legend of Korra fandom.

Canon
Asami first met Varrick when she tried to make a deal with him to save her company. She was initially confused by his antics, but played along anyway. He eventually agreed to make a deal with her after they stared each other down and they all celebrated. Later, she was surprised when Varrick was wanted for leading a rebellion and they fled the Southern Water Tribe with a group. When Asami needed help with her bankruptcy, Varrick advised her to sell mecha tanks to the South and she agreed.

Later, Asami discovered that her supply ships were being bombed. Varrick suggested that she set a trap to find out who was behind it. However, someone took advantage of her absence and stole all of her company's supplies from the warehouse. It turned out that Varrick was behind it, but before Mako could tell Asami, she had already signed an agreement with Varrick to save her company. Mako tried to tell Asami that Varrick was the culprit, but she refused to believe him until Bolin fought off his men and he was imprisoned. She later visited him and he reminded her that he saved her company. He gave her and the rest of Team Avatar a battleship to make up for his misdeeds.

Weeks later, Team Avatar was having dinner with the Metal Clan in Zaofu. Varrick showed up and everyone was complaining. He asked Asami how her company was doing, and she remarked that all the shares were back to her because of Varrick's transgression. After she reminded him of his attempt to kidnap the president, Varrick claimed that it was only an accusation since he was never convicted. Later, he brought an "Airbender Finder" to the table. Asami tested it on Korra and it did not work. She claimed that it was broken and Varrick told her that an airbender has to airbend for it to work.

Three years later Asami still had not forgiven Varrik for his actions. Varrick had worked as a soldier for the Earth Empire, but eventually defected and returned to Republic City. President Raiko assigned the two of them to develop new weapons to fight Kuvira. They were forced to put aside their differences and work together. When Varrick tried to shake her hand, she grabbed her wrist instead and glared at him, warning him not to betray her again. They managed to work together to invent the hummingbird mecha suit. Later, they seemed to be on better terms, as Asami attended Varrick and Zhu Li's wedding and was smiling.

Fanon
Fans began shipping Varrick with Asami as soon as he was revealed as a character at the Comic Con panel. It was unknown how old he was so fans assumed he was only in his early twenties. Even before Book Two aired, it was known that he and Asami would be working together. Especially when Varrick got in Asami's face before making a deal with her. However, the support decreased when it turned out that he double-crossed her.
