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 narrows his eyes and waits patiently as she goes on and on and soaks it all in.]

Wow, that's really useful, thanks! But eggs? Even if they're made out of metal?

[He looks at what they have.] Huh, the very first one is a psychic, and they've got five of him. I probably should think about it a bit more before asking for one, though. 'Sides, I want to make sure I can take care of this guy first. [He gives Banji a smile.]

[usedwrench]

[so very soooooooooorrrry for all of her tl;dr okay]

You're welcome. Yeah, eggs, all of them - even if they're made out of metal, or have fiery manes. ...Oh wait, I think fiery parts appear after hatching, but anyway.

[She gives him a calm smile.] I'd say that's a good plan. No need to rush things when we're all stuck here for who knows how long.

[rocking_it]

I guess I shouldn't think about it too hard. I'll just make my head hurt.

[He nods, satisfied.] Hey, that just means we could be out of here before we know it, right?

[usedwrench]

People get used to it, more or less, so I wouldn't think about it too hard.

[...Sigh.] Well, either that ...Or we stay here when our friends go home somehow. It happens a lot.

[rocking_it]

Done and done.

...sounds like you speak from experience?

[usedwrench]

...I do, but my closest friends from home are here, so that helps a lot.

[rocking_it]

That's good. In a bad way. You know.

I don't know what I'd do if I didn't have someone.

[usedwrench]

More like good in a good and a bad way. Uh. [Explaining skills? What are those?]

You would find new friends here and introduce them to your friends from your world whenever they'd show up? [That face.] At least that's what I was about to do when my friends weren't here, but they followed me soon. And earlier they came back here quite soon after disappearing... Then I disappeared from them later. This world is crazy.

[rocking_it]

I'm kind of getting that vibe. [The craziness, that is.]

[usedwrench]

You might have arrived on the calm season, really, but some of the logic of this world is just always kind of nonexistent.

[rocking_it]

I can handle it. I've handled some pretty scary stuff.

I just don't want to handle it alone.

[usedwrench]

[Scary stuff? She won't ask, and by this she has handled some pretty scary stuff too, but let's not go to details.]

Well, you are not alone here, but I get what you mean. I wouldn't want to handle it alone either. So, I hope your friend is still here, and that more of your friends keep showing up.

[Like really really hopes for it and keeps her fingers crossed for you with her whole heart in it, because she's like that.]
