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?

[He laughs.] No way! Sorry, but he needs a name with some, ah, manliness to it. Right? [He asks the sentret and it chitters back at him.]

Sir Fluff the Intrepid!!

[rocking_it]

Maybe, but sometimes you don't have a lot of options. Or any.

[He scrubs the back of his neck.] Even if I wanted to, I wouldn't know how! You have butchers who, I mean, it's their job to know how to do that. It's best to let them do their job, right?

[...okay that's just weird.] Seriously? Well, I guess if I can lose their bending they can look different.

[rocking_it]

It's still a girl name. Just a girl who's intrepid and um ... a knight?

[rocking_it]

That's weird. How about leaves and bark and things? Is there anything I can eat that's not from a store?

[colorsofthewind]

Are you in New Bark? If so you're about a three-day walk from the next town, which is a bit larger.

[aidolmaster]

Fluff can be manly!!

[worktodo]

You could always go raid Mom's fridge.

[getthehorns]

Just--- don't eat 'em yourself. Humans don't... uh, react well.

[rocking_it]

Nope. Nope nopes.

[rocking_it]

Yeah, I'm gonna head there soon as my head's on straight. It looks like that's my best option.

[rocking_it]

Maybe she'd give me more food if I asked nicely.

I've always had to hunt animals if I wanted to eat. I look for edible plants while I'm hunting, but I mostly eat meat.

Everyone should know how to feed themselves. It doesn't make sense to rely on other people to get you food all the time.

[rocking_it]

It's okay, I can go days without eating. And I'm pretty fast if I don't get lost.

Re: [Video]

[rocking_it]

I've lived in the city all my life, so there aren't any animals to hunt. Aside from squirrels, I guess.

Sure it does! I mean, it's worked up until now.

[colorsofthewind]

Good idea. There's really not enough in New Bark to make it worth staying in.

Oh, my name is Talim, by the way.

[rocking_it]

I'm Bolin! And yeah, I'm kind of getting that impression.

[He looks around and starts walking. No reason he can't do both at once. So long as he doesn't run into any trees.]

At least it doesn't look like it's very hard to find the next town.

[colorsofthewind]

It's a pleasure to meet you, Bolin.

[ She nods a bit ]

It's been a while since I've made that trek myself, but the walk from New Bark to Cherrygrove is pretty straightforward.

[rocking_it]

It's good to hear that, I'm not exactly used to finding my way from town to town. Going to need to find some of those berries too ...

Does everyone show up here?

[worktodo]

Hope springs eternal.

[rooster_shout]

Of course, you should name him! But it has to be something fun or cool!

[whateveryoueatliveitspart]

Squirrels taste good. I like deer and boar better, but all meat tastes good. Except the meat for the stores. It doesn't have much flavor. [He's used to meat being really gamey.]

How is it working now? [His tone is along the lines of how you'd walk a child through what they did wrong in their homework when their mistake is incredibly basic and they're not seeing it.]

[rocking_it]

Or fun AND cool. But I haven't thought of anything yet.

[aidolmaster]

I'll-- I'll prove it!
