Lieumon

Lieumon is the slash ship between Amon and the Lieutenant from The Legend of Korra fandom.

Canon
It is not known how Amon first met the Lieutenant, but they worked closely together as Equalists. The two always had a mutual trust and admiration for each other. Amon trusted the Lieutenant enough to make him his second in command, and the Lieutenant dedicated his life to Amon and his cause. Both believed in ridding the world of all bending. The Lieutenant always accompanied Amon in public appearances and battles. Eventually, Korra revealed that Amon was actually a waterbender named Noatak, but the Lieutenant did not believe her. However, he later witnessed Amon bloodbending Korra. He was hurt by this because of his devotion to Amon and attacked him, causing Amon to bloodbend him aside while nothing that he had served him well. Amon was later killed by his brother Tarrlok in a boat explosion. It is not known what happened to the lieutenant.
