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?

[show_my_cannons]

All Spark does that, too. More or less.

The whole thing is... more complicated than I ever wanted to know about.

[punchandkiss]

....Okay, I have no idea how any of this would work.

[pikajanken]

[She laughs.]

Oh! That works too! I bet he'll be using tail a lot for attacks. I wonder how could I train Candy.

[rocking_it]

You just have to give them motivation, like a treat or just affection! This little guy sure seems eager to please.

[rocking_it]

Okay ... but what about the metal pokemon? Do they have pokebabies?

[rocking_it]

It's not too complicated. You have three players to a team, each a different kind of bender, and you use your bending to push the other team back until you've gained control of the field.

[punchandkiss]

So you can be a specialized...bender.

[rocking_it]

Everyone's a specialized bender except for Korra 'cause she's the avatar. I'm an earthbender, and my brother's a firebender. Korra does our waterbending, and that makes up our team.

[thetruehistorian]

Which, get comfortable, or stay unattached?

[rocking_it]

That last one. What's the point of anything if you don't get attached?

[thetruehistorian]

[A half smile creeps up one side of her lips. He sounds like a couple of people that she knows.]

I guess it depends on what you decide you'd like to try and accomplish while you're here.

[rocking_it]

I'm going to have as much fun as possible!

Right, buddy? [This part is to his sentret. His enthusiasm is contagious apparently, because after a brief moment of confusion the sentret bounces up and down on his tail in agreement.]

[aidolmaster]

That's a nope nope nopity nope, huh.

[rocking_it]

I kind of have an idea now, sorry.

[Yes, that's a nopity nope.]

[aidolmaster]

... [ this is the largest, saddest sigh from someone who will not hit five feet for awhile. ]

[rocking_it]

Why don't you use that name for one of your guys?

[aidolmaster]

Because my fluffy one already has a name.

[rocking_it]

Maybe you'll get a new fluffy one? According to this pokedex thing, there are a lot of fluffy ones!

[thetruehistorian]

A worthy goal. Do include me every so often, alright?

[show_my_cannons]

...

Why would I know that.

[punchandkiss]

[Okay, at least this sounds less weird than like, doing jumping jacks or special stretches or something.]

What does an earthbender do?

[pikajanken]

I get it now. I wasn't allowed to have pet back home because of where we live, so this is kind of new to me. Yeah, Candy's like that too when she's not running to explore things.

[princelyspirit]

[blinks in surprise - she heard a lot of weird stuff, but not as much as Bolin, apparently]

Okay, people coming back from the dead? That one's new to me... and, to be honest, kinda creepy-sounding.

[shakes her head]

Anyway, did anyone tell you about the road ahead? In between the talk about ponies and metal men, I mean.

[would have probably asked what he meant by bending, if she wasn't distracted by the whole "back from the dead" thing. It'll probably come back to her sooner or later]

[whateveryoueatliveitspart]

It could be interesting to see.

[usedwrench]

[Sheepish grin. Someone just called her smart? That's ...about as rare as 'you're his hero' comments from that one girl who she met on this network.] W-Well, I had great teachers, and I basically spent my childhood reading books from my parents' bookshelf to get some medical knowledge so that helps a lot with my work too. [aaaand some people might sound over-confident or bragging about stuff like that, Winry really doesn't. She's just Winry and normal. She might be blushing a little though!]

He does, especially if you're a breeder? Not that it's a bad thing to impress the ladies as a trainer's pokemon either. [Turning a bit to the left, and ignoring the screen for a moment. "Hey, Didi, come here."]
