Video; UN: Bolin!

[pabugotmoves]

Hello everyone! Ladies and Gentlemen and.. people who aren't either but.. are other things I guess- ANYWAY! I'm Bolin, you might know me, I was in Deerington for a little while before we made the journey here. Mako's brother, earthbender, at your service.

[Bright! Excited! He's got so much to say and it's all great!! Bolin is sitting in a booth in The Raccoon Room, it's all very fancy and newly opened as you might remember from the big party on Halloween. Heck, you might have seen him there performing tricks with his omen Pabu the fire ferret, who is currently draped around the back of Bolin's neck like a scarf, only mildly interested in what's happening but squeaks every time Bolin gesticulates particularly big.]

Firstly, I wanted to say thank you to everyone who came to the Raccoon Room's opening night, it was great and I know it meant the world to Mako and Wu. And hey, if you had fun you should come back which is what brings me to my next point!

We're gonna do a musical.

[Jazz handssssssss! His eyes are very bright. Is this a good thing? Should you be worried? Remains to be seen.]

Wu has asked me to direct it, with music by Ryan from Chicken Choice Judy aand I know what you're thinking: Oh- Bolin [In falsetto, because that's how you all sound and you know it.] but a musical we don't know-

Wrong-o, it is going to be amazing and you're all going to love it. So good news, we're casting!

There's going to be auditions.. and costumes and music! And sets! It's going to be like a live action mover with songs, I can't actually think of anything better.

So, if you're interested in being a part of the show and auditioning or getting on the crew, drop me your name, questions, and deets and welcome to Trench's very first musical production ooffffffffff wait for itttttttttt?!!?

well

People do keep saying I need a hobby…

[pabugotmoves]

YES!!

TEAM SHIRO!!! TEAM SHIRO IN THE HOUSE!!

YOU DO! THIS IS THE BEST HOBBY! YOU'RE GOING TO BE SO GOOD I'M SO PROUD OF YOU!!

[shiro2hero]

Take it easy

We don't know I'd be any good with this.

[pabugotmoves]

[But look how happy you made him, Shiro.]

You're going to be great. You've got moxie, I can feel it in my bones.

I'll attach the script, have a look at it and I'll see you at 2 on Tuesday!

[shiro2hero]

[Why do you have to be so excited, Bolin... Now he can't disappoint you.]

I'll do my best...

2pm or am?

[pabugotmoves]

[This is by design. Shiro. Bolin is very good at cute-ing getting his way ]

PM!

Huh, nobody else has asked that.

[shiro2hero]

That probably says way more about me than anyone else.

[pabugotmoves]

Do you feel like you would perform better at 2am? I can accommodate.

[shiro2hero]

Bolin, if I tried to do anything at 2am that wasn't sleeping, I think half the people I know in this town would riot.

[pabugotmoves]

Why what happens at 2am?

Do you sleepwalk? Warewolf-crow? Are you good by day but by night you share your body with a heinous alter ego??

[shiro2hero]

Well. Legend has it this extremely rare event happens at 2am.








Sleep.

[pabugotmoves]

And you don't do that or am I missing something?

[shiro2hero]

Oh

Sorry - I thought everyone knew that one by now

Yeah, sleep and I... don't exactly get along. So. Bad joke. At my expense.

[pabugotmoves]

I must have missed that section in the squid world welcome guide.

2/2

[pabugotmoves]

[But Shiro had a good vibe and he's curious so]

Why don't you sleep?

[shiro2hero]

I'll put it in the next issue of Squids Monthly.


Ah it's
A lot of reasons. Don't worry. I'm working on it.

[pabugotmoves]

Well I wasn't thinking about being worried but now I am.

Nightmares? Sometimes I can't sleep because of that. Or I just lay there and all the bad or stupid things I've ever said circle around my brain and it's so loud I can't sleep. Or sometimes it's the bitter crush of defeat and overwhelming sadness that get in the way.

[shiro2hero]

No, no, it's okay. I'm all right.

[Sort of.]

...

Are you all right?

[pabugotmoves]

Hunky dory my good sir.

So 2pm it is but let me know if you need a different time after all. I live just behind The Raccoon Room so I'm around.

[shiro2hero]

Bolin...




Fine, but. At least let me bring you something that might help. All right?

[He wants to help. He really does. But they might not be close enough for him to push it. Not yet.]

[pabugotmoves]

[s q u i n t

help with what

what does it mean]

2/2

[pabugotmoves]

Well if you have your own costume or something I'm sure that would be a big help :)

[shiro2hero]

Help with sleep.

I have teas and a sleep aid.

[pabugotmoves]

Oh!

You don't have to do that, I'm okay. I sleep fine most nights and try not to sleep too deeply anyway with all the monsters around.

[shiro2hero]

You know, if everyone says it's not healthy for me, I doubt it's healthy for you.

Try it? Please?
