    topic about how you think a person with the personality of bender of each element would respond

    ex. being insulted

    Airbender: respond jokingly and brush it off

    Earthbender: ignore completely and move on??unfazed

    Firebender: respond by viciously tearing at the other person

    Waterbender: cleverly turn it around to insult the instigator

    Well the responses for earth benders that you put doesn't apply to Toph, or the Boulder...or any earthbender.

    you now what? I misassumed the last part of earthbender and that they would insult back and completely ignore??any other insult??other person said and the firebender would do it without giving them a chance to reply.

    The main character's personalities are different at almost the level of being the main characters of a school sitcom.

    Okay, i've got one:

    What if a bender was walking one day, and someone pushed them, gruffly saying, "Move it." What would they do?

    Air Bender: Keep walking, thinking that it's no big deal; they're probably just in a hurry...

    Earth Bender: Would say snappish response, such as, "Bite me, dirtbag, etc."

    Fire Bender: Would automatically bound onto the insulting pighead, throwing flames and screaming, "You DARE insult me, inferior beast?!"

    Water Bender: Would roll eyes and silently say, "Idiot," as walking onward.

    Air bender would say Keep the change

    Water bender would probably ask the person to pay the right amount

    Earthbender would demand it back

    Fire Bender would Insult the person and forcibly take it back

    How about getting a speeding ticket when you're going 3 over and had to go along with traffic?

    you know the reactions you guys have about the firebenders aren't necessaryily true. look at iroh, hes always calm and nice to ppl. in chapter 4 the swamp, when that guy took out his swords and slashed them at iroh and made him dance and in the end drop the gold piece on the ground, iroh responded by saying "such a kind man." it prob applies to zuko, ozai, or azula, but definitely not to iroh or even jeong jeong

    Airbender: Prol'ly figure that it was fair enough
    Waterbender: Groan and roll their eyes- "Oh, don't worry, I'm just trying to get to something important is all, take your time..."
    Earthbender (namely Toph): Freak out and go into a long rant about how it was so not fair, they just had to keep up with traffic, you know, and why didn't everyone else get ticketed, etcetera. Hey, that's what I'd do, too!
    Firebender: Burn the police officer right on the spot.

    How about getting beaten on?

    Airbender: I beg your pardon?

    Waterbender: Get away from whoever is beating on them

    Earthbender: punch them back

    Firebender: Put them in a pit of oil and use firebending

    Oh, i got one, mostly for female benders though. What if: they asked their boyfriend/husband/life partner if they looked fat in their dress, and they said yes?

    Here's some cheesey pick up lines:

    Waterbender: I can melt away your troubles...
    Earthbender: You want me to rock your world?
    Firebender: I must be seeing this, 'cause you're on fire!
    Airbender: Baby you blow me away...

    Firebender: Is it hot in here, or is it just you?
