[video] Dip-dop Says Hello
[There is a noodle-child on the comms, one that looks maybe only just old enough to be a Legionnaire. His hat is missing because he lost it on the planet and his slightly poofy hair is sticking up, so that a birth mark in the shape of the Big Dipper is visible on his forehead. He's currently hyperventilating. His eyes are wide and he's breathing like every new breath makes it even harder to take the next breath.]
Oh man. Oh man. Oh man.
[Will someone help this wayward child? This poor, clearly terrified--]
This is the best thing ever!
[Okay, so maybe he's not hyperventilating because he's scared. Maybe he's just so excited he can barely breathe right. In fact, he's so excited he basically went on the network pretty much as soon as the omnicom was put in his hands. The situation got explained to him -- and he lied his butt off about his age because they mentioned the age limit before they asked what his was -- and now he's clearly still in his Medbay bed, not even released from the Medbay yet, hyperventilating on the comms in excitement over his situation.]
Not the whole being dimensionally displaced part -- even if time supposedly isn't passing back home -- or the, y'know, mortal peril part, but we're in space! Did you all see that? You can just look outside the window! And it's space!
And my doctor had four arms! And was purple!
[Yes, he's excited. Supposedly, he even has superpowers now.]
And we all have superpowers! And -- what am I saying, all you people know this, right? They said other people have been here longer. Do you all have cool powers? Are any of you aliens? Mutants? Or, like, I dunno, space wizards with laser swords or something? That seems like a thing that could happen.
[His other hand comes in frame and he makes a gimme gimme gesture.]
Gimme the lay of the land. What am I looking at here?
[A pause and then he finally remembers maybe he should give his name. He says it like it's an afterthought.]
Oh yeah, I'm Dipper Pines.
Oh man. Oh man. Oh man.

And not one by itself...shaped like a shape?
no subject
What are you even talking about?
no subject
Ignore that.
[He tries to take in a deep breath and calm himself. He knows he's being overly paranoid. Way, way overly paranoid. Bill is gone and for goodness sake, he even said it was multiple shadows instead of just one, and shadows aren't the same thing as giant, brightly colored triangles.]
[It's just he really hates hearing about possession. It always puts him in a squirmy, nervous place.]
no subject
Fine.
[It could rest for the moment. There were a million ways to find out now that he knew there was something to find out, and for now prying would just make him look like an insensitive ass.]
Did you have any other questions about this place, as I'm bringing you up to speed anyway?

[He's a morbid little child, but he feels like it's an important thing to know.]
Just, y'know. Checking.
no subject
[...But now that you said it, he's curious too.]

[And he even smiles, pleasant and polite.]
no subject
Uh. Thanks, man.
