[Sokka's face is scrunched up and his tongue is just poking out of his mouth as he jabs at a few things and then pulls back with a grin.]

There! It...is set up, right?

I'm not going to just be talking to some...what is this thing called again?

[He squints and gives another jab before shrugging.]

Anyway, I know there's other people around, so hi! Hello! I'm Sokka, just some guy currently hoping that he's doing this ri--[And the video and all sound cut off as Sokka touches something that clearly makes it end recording.]

[whoneedsbending]

Yeah, I kinda get that a lot.

[He's trying to think now if he's ever heard of a red panda and he frowns a little.]

Not heard of a red panda before. But you really do look like a fire ferret.

[video]

[shifu_sifu]

Then now you have.

[A pause.]

I have never encountered a fire ferret before. They are Kung Fu masters as well?

[video]

[whoneedsbending]

I don't think so? Maybe if they got trained?

[video]

[shifu_sifu]

Then what are the Kung Fu masters of your world?

[Because what am world without kung fu?]

[video]

[whoneedsbending]

We don't really have Kung Fu? We have bending.

[video]

[shifu_sifu]

[...this is going to be a pulling-fur conversation, he can tell. His ears fall into a flat line and he gestures, inviting more to be said.]

And what is it that you bend?

[video]

[whoneedsbending]

[Pretty much.]

Oh right, well uh...I can't do any of it. But where I'm from, there's people who can bend elements. Four really. Water, Earth, Fire and Air. Basically you manipulate the element and can use it in fighting or for other things. Everyone can only do one element though, like my sister can bend water and my friend Toph can do earth. Aang though can do all of them. He's the Avatar, so...he's kind of a big deal.

[shifu_sifu]

Bend... water.

[An ear twitches a few times before he clears his throat and straightens.]

A master of Kung Fu can guide a single dew drop from the leaf until it joins the water of the pool. It is not so different.

[video]

[whoneedsbending]

Ah, but can a master turn water into a whip or turn it into ice? Build a city out of the water around them?

[He gives a slight shrug.]

[video]

[shifu_sifu]

Well-- [Shifu is grasping at wisps and straws here, a paw actually making the motion an he seeks some sage response that will somehow validate his position.] Perhaps...

[Nope, he's got nothing.]

How is it possible?

[video]

[whoneedsbending]

They manipulate it. They control it.

I don't know how though, like I said, I can't do it.

[video]

[shifu_sifu]

This is very strange. [Pensive Shifu is pensive, stroking his chin.] Hm. I will meditate on this possibility and see what I can learn.
