[It takes a few moments of trying to translate Alma's directions into something useful, and he ends up going through a few wrong options before finally getting it right and turning on the video. Once it turns on, it shows a boy wearing all blue: blue shirt, blue pants, impossibly long blue hood, etc. There's also a strange mark on his shirt that looks like two wavy lines.]
This is Nesreca, but you're not alone.

[A pause.] Hey, how come you're only using text like Karkat?

[Insert vague, childish instructions here. He's preeeeetty sure he knows how to do it, but Alma doesn't really bother with text. Ever. >>]

Did I get it? Can you see me?

Alma smiles wide.] Yeah, you got it!

John smiles in return once he knows he's got the video working. He's got some buck-teeth sticking down comically as well.]
Cool! I've never done a video call like this before.

I use video all the time. Makes it really easy to talk to people.

So you know Karkat?

Oh, yeah. He's been here for a while.

What's he like? In person, I mean.
