--llo? Someone? Any--
[ The feed starts, showing someone's shoes, and a small, bright red ferret blinking up. The view quickly changes as Bolin ditches the communicator in favor of his friend, finally coming into view, addressing--yes, that's right, the ferret. He's talking to the ferret. ]
Pabu! Oh, you have no idea how good it is to see you, buddy. Do you know if Mako's around? I can't find--
[ He's interrupted by the sound of trash cans falling over. He turns quickly, coming face-to-face with one of the larger local monsters. And boy does it look happy to see him, jaws wide and claws ready. Bolin doesn't seem concerned as he shifts into a stance, raising an arm up to punch at the air, towards the monster.
Nothing happens.
Bolin stands there shocked, no--horrified, as the monster's teeth sink into his arm.
What happened to his bending?
The pain seems to snap him back to reality, and he shoves the monster off, turning to run. Pabu, bless his soul, nabs the communicator and scampers after Bolin--climbing onto his shoulder once he catches up. The feed is bumpy for a while, little paws on the screen with a lovely picture of the sky.
Once he's lost the monster he stops, crouching low behind some rubble to catch his breath. ]
Just what is this place?

[ Obviously. ]
Mostly acrobatics, and--what? No! He can't breath fire, he's just a ferret! ...You can't breath fire, can you, Pabu? [ ..... ] Yeah, that's what I thought.
( video )
The United States of America! But everyone just calls me America for short.
[ he doesn't even think it's weird that bolin's talking to a ferret and expecting an answer. ]
Says him. Watch, he's just savin' it for the grand finale. Why else would he be called a fire ferret?
( video )
[ And not questioning it earns you some points, America. ]
Yeah, no. I don't think so. He's probably called that because he's got red, fire-tastic fur.
( video )
But anyway, nice too meetcha, Bolin! Groovy name. Sounds like... bowlin'. Or ballin'.
Too bad about your not-fire-breathing ferret though. Red ferret would be a way less deceptive name.
( video )
Anyway! Yeah, my name's the best. Not that I'm not...a really popular guy anyway.
[ He laughs. ] Well, I've never had people think he could breathe fire before! It must be another weird world...thing.
( video )
What can I say? There's a gal here who lives with a landshark and a dragondemon as pets. After that, I've gotta ask these things about all critters from other worlds. Can't say whether I'm disappointed or relieved 'bout Pabu, haha!
( video )
A land...shark. Uh, well, I guess I can see why you'd need to ask. Though I can guarantee it's probably a relief he cant. A fire-breathing Pabu would be...well, an accident waiting to happen.
( video )
An accident waiting to happen... or a valuable asset? Think about it! You've got a ferret who can breath fire, the possibilities are endless! Need to cook some food? Fire ferret's got your back. In a dark spot? Fire ferret. Got a Russian all up in your face trying to steal your secrets and soul? Fire ferret will light that sucker up like a torch. Especially since, as everyone knows, Russians have replaced their blood with vodka.
