[ The kids with nothing to their name are always the richest in imagination. The mention of Ember Island pulls up the image of a beautiful, sunny beach in Bolin's mind, the white sand immaculate and the waves pushing against it serene. He can imagine there to be many cheery people to meet, some relaxing by the beach and some playing in the water. It's all such a different world from where they're living now; people are smiling and no one's desperately huddling in their own clothes just to keep warm. People with money get to go to those sorts of places all the time. It sounds so grand. ]
Ooh, I love Ember Island! [ Whether or not Mako was trying to change the topic to something more light-hearted, it works almost too well. Bolin will grasp any opportunity to think about happier things. ] Old Man Long from the fish stand was sharing some old people-wisdom about how [ And then he imitates the old fisherman. ] 'You'll find what you're looking for at Ember Island.' [ Now, he returns to his own excitable self. ] and I just think, what he means is love!
So if one of those beautiful Fire Nation girls are the one for me, I already know what to do. First, I'l learn to sandbend, like you said -- [ Quietly and honestly: ] it might take a few weeks -- and then, I'll build a grand sandcastle unlike anything she's ever seen, that'll surely impress her! [ Now, he nods and rests a hand to his chest. ] That will mark the beginning of our beautiful lives together.
[ Where does Bolin even get the energy to be this chatty in the dead of winter? He's powered by the spirit of imagination. Also, it beats being miserable. ]
