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?

What's bending? You keep talking about it.

I don't know what an avatar is.

[rocking_it]

It's when ... you know, you have an element, and you can move it. Just move it. I'm an earthbender, so I can move earth. And the avatar can move everything because she's special.

We fight with our bending, one of each on each team except no airbenders 'cause there's only one family of them. My brother's our firebender and Korra--the avatar--is our waterbender.

What's so special about that? Anyone can pick up earth and move it. Same with the others if you pick up a burning log or cup you hands or wave your arms really fast.

[rocking_it]

No, not like that. WITH OUR MINDS.

Well, technically by doing forms, but you know. Also with our minds.

[whateveryoueatliveitspart]

That doesn't seem like it would work.

[Ironically enough, this is coming from someone who, soon after they return home, will telekinetically pick up a lake and throw it on a forest fire.]

Can anyone do it if they know how?

[rocking_it]

It does. But only for some people, and it runs in families. My family's a bit different 'cause our parents our from different nations. That's why I can be an earthbender while Mako's a firebender.

I show you if I still had it.

[whateveryoueatliveitspart]

It could be interesting to see.

[rocking_it]

It is! I remember how stoked I was the first time I saw a match.
