[The camera flicks on to reveal a pretty young woman's face and the familiar backdrop of New Bark's windmills. She speaks quickly but not rushed.] I am assuming the illumination of the light means this contraption is functional

[ If it isn't your fearless leader. Or, you assume. Considering he is lacking his trolly attributes the same as yourself. But that tone is pretty unmistakeable. You smirk- smile. Definitely smile. ]

Karkat I can reassure you that my intention was not to follow you. Though I must admit that the revelation that you and our other comrades are also present is not as shocking as I believe it should be.

[ You listen intently to Karkat's explanation, nodding with each new (annoyed) point. ]

Yes, I have discovered her species is known as a 'Venonat'. However bestowing your own names upon these creatures is acceptable, correct?

[ That's your leader, all right. ]

Stupid? This appears to be far more acceptable of a living area than our previous residence. While the transformation into a human is not pleasant, perhaps this would have been a carefully considered choice.

So you have captured another, as well. It would appear I am behind. Is anyone else still not present?

Kanaya hi! Most of us have already gone on ahead, a couple of days ago! We can wait for you in the next town if you want!

Feferi. [She looks almost relieved to see you. You're a lot less effort to deal with than Karkat.]

I would not want to inconvenience you by witholding you from proceeding. However I would appreciate the company, if the rest of the group are as willing to wait.

Well... it's about three days from New Bark Town to the next one... Cherrygrove, I think. But we might get caught in the storm out here!

It's me, Sollux, Terezi, Equius, and Nepeta. I'm sure they'll wait if we ask.

That is the most prevalent reason for my decision not to leave yet. When the blizzard subsides I will begin my travels fully. However there is no easy prediction as to when my arrival in the next town will occur, so if the group feels the need to continue do not be held back by me.

[video] Convince totally equals coerce. Yup.

[sagiterrifying]

[So guess who'd been totally listening to yours and Feferi's conversation?]

While I particularly mind being held up in this excruciating cold, I don't have the energy to convince Nepeta to keep going if she were to begin complaining.

So I'll wait.

[video] you are the best moirail obvs...

[usedpainsplit]

Thankyou Equius. It is not my intention to slow your advancing, if it is any consolation to you.

[video] sorry; this got lost in my inbox. ._.

[sagiterrifying]

I wouldn't blame you for it; it wouldn't be you who would stop our group from traveling on.

You sound like some long-winded broad I know of. If the mention of horns is any indication, you're originally a troll, aren'tcha?

[Blink. Oh there are proper humans here too.]

You are the Dave human, if my vision is informing me correctly. Yes I was originally a troll however that would obviously be no longer the case.

Then all I gotta say to you is one word--

[Have a wave from both him and his sunglasses-wearing charmander.]

Yo.

Is this human sarcasm or is that a sincere greeting from both your and your ignited scalebeast? I find the separation between the concepts questionable.

[Her Venonat simply waves its tiny claw back.]
