BEST THING EVER.

Confusion about benders! Kung fu Jesus and Wizard Jesus! And of course Aang would just barge in on a Quidditch game. :P

Thanks for the awesome! :D

Yay!! I'm so glad you liked it.

And I naturally had to include some kind of joke about benders ever since I found out what they think benders are in the UK. ;D

Haha, apparently in the UK, "bender" is a slang term for homosexual. It's the reason they call the show "Avatar: The Legend of Aang" overseas. So obviously I had to bring it up somehow when they somehow magically (heh, pun) ended up in England.

And awww, thank you! I'm so glad you enjoyed it. :D

It's very true. Bender is an old fashioned word for they gays. It's a bit of a playground insult too.

“Benders?!” Malfoy yelped from somewhere behind Harry, making him jump. “We’re not benders, you stupid arrowheaded kid! I like a GIRL. See?”

That's exactly what I think when I hear people talking about "benders". So it made me laugh! :-)

BTW - the show on Nicolodean in the UK does say "The last airbender" but I think the Region 2 DVDs say "The legend of Aang". So that's just confusing for people wanting to buy it.

Like I say "Bender" is a very old-fashioned word! :-)

This was a lot of fun!
And I don't know all that much about A:TLA.

Thank you!! And I'm glad you liked it even if you don't know much about Avatar.

Um, this was all kinds of adorable :D

They have matching forehead markings!! I feel like I've thought this before, so I'm glad you put it in there and validated my crazy tangents. I love the confusion over bending vs magic, and Lee Jordan is clearly the best ever.

That's some tasty gold!
