Helloooooo, not Republic City!

[Have a very close-up shot of Bolin's oh-so pretty eyes.]

So, hey. Kidnapped huh. [Kidnapped again, more like it. He leans back and strokes his lack of beard, allowing the rest of his face to be seen. There's a Sentret flopped over his shoulder like a pancake.]

This is a lot better than most kidnappings I've been to. I even get a free--uh, I'm not sure what this is. [He checks out that Sentret. It's a little familiar to him but not quite enough. Like a squished fire ferret.] Yeah, I don't know. But he is adorable! Don't tell Pabu I said that.

[The Sentret makes some little squeaky noises from his shoulder.]

Ahh, guys! It's assaulting me with cuteness! Do you think I should name him?

Ohhhhh. Ohhh.




I have no idea what that is.

Or what a pony is, to be honest.

[rocking_it]

No, I mean we made money!

[getthehorns]

I'm supposed to be twenty-five feet tall and made of metal.

[rocking_it]

Yeah, I guess? Not that we have zombies back home. I hope.

Automail, huh. That sounds like something only Asami would get, but I'd still like to see it.

I was thinking of Banji.

[rocking_it]

Guess you're right. Though if I'm going to be kidnapped I kind of at least want to enjoy it.

Soon as it's safe, we could do some exploring ... [He turns to his sentret and grins. It seems to approve.]

[rocking_it]

What? How does that work? Are you some kind of ultra-bender?

[colorsofthewind]

You two are going to make a great team already. I can tell.

[getthehorns]

No, I'm a Cybertronian. We're all big and made of metal. You know, usually.

[rocking_it]

How does that work? People aren't made of metal! Even animals aren't made of metal!

[whateveryoueatliveitspart]

By killing things?

[getthehorns]

Really? 'Cause some of the pokémon here are made of metal.

[rocking_it]

No, by doing tricks! I mean, he did the tricks, not me. But I taught him.

[rocking_it]

Really? How does that even work?

[video]

[show_my_cannons]

You have not been kidnapped, boy. Who told you that you were?

[whateveryoueatliveitspart]

Why would him doing tricks get you money?

[rocking_it]

Nobody told me, I kind of guessed it from the way I woke up somewhere that I didn't go to sleep.

[rocking_it]

Because people pay money for entertainment? We'd perform in the streets for money sometimes.

I'm a pro-athlete too, so you could say I perform in the arena.

[whateveryoueatliveitspart]

Why? You can have fun without spending money.

What's a pro-athlete do?

[usedwrench]

That's good! [Good thing Winry doesn't know about the zombie-like things in Amestris either.]

One day I'll force a guy into a video post with me to show it to the whole world here. Then I can explain stuff too.

Banji sounds good. [thumbs up]

[rocking_it]

You might as well say you can eat without spending money, but people still like high-end restaurants!

We fight using our bending. People like cheering us on, and they get all pumped up just watching. You should see us in action! We've got the avatar on our team!

[show_my_cannons]

No one kidnaps us here. You just... end up here. No other way to explain it.

[rocking_it]

That'd be neat! Do you do stuff just for people who've lost limbs? We've got these gloves back home that are electric but they just go over your hand.

[He laughs.] Well, he gets the final say. But if the pretty girls like a name, that's a plus for a guy, right?

[rocking_it]

Huh. This whole thing is just a giant plate of weird with weirdsauce on top.

[show_my_cannons]

Giant... what now?

[whateveryoueatliveitspart]

What's bending? You keep talking about it.

I don't know what an avatar is.
