1st Proverb - Video
[When the feed kicks on, a slightly dorky looking young man appears on the screen - another new face, it would seem, but maybe less perturbed than most. In fact, he's beaming, all pretty white (if a little gappy) teeth and three big, bright eyes fixed on the camera.
...Three?
He speaks, his voice almost incongruously velvety.]
Helloooooo?
Hello!
Well, I have to say, this was a bit of a surprise! I was thankful for the welcoming committee, but I wasn't expecting to wake up in anything resembling this! In fact, it's the third largest turtle I have ever encountered! Wonders never cease.
[There isn't a trace of sarcasm to be found anywhere in his tone.]
The suite is much better than my apartment, I must admit. I might grow, in time, to miss the steady chanting in the wee, dark hours of the morning...but for now, I'm going to enjoy the change of pace!
After all - I haven't traveled this far from Night Vale since...well, since I backpacked through Europe when I was younger! And let me tell you, there were no turtles involved in that.
Except the one.
But he was a total. Jerk.

[Sorry Cecil he has too many things to freak out about right now.] What are you, an alien?
Video;
[He laughs a little.]
Well, if I were a visitor from another world, I think I would tell people about it upfront!
...Unless I had been ordered not to.
Video;
[psyduck emote.jpg] -Uh, okay. Sorry, that was rude. You don't even look that weird- uh- different? I'm not good at being PC.
Video;
[He holds up his arms for the camera, happy as a clam...and the tattoos, sure enough, are writhing across his skin. One of the tentacles gives a little wave.]
Don't worry about it! I'm not offended, I promise.
Video;
Uhm, hello. I'm Frank, welcome?
Video;
They like you!
Video;
You seem to be really okay about being brought here.
Video;
...Why wouldn't I be? It's not THAT out of the ordinary. I mean, if I got upset every time I got displaced? There'd be nothing left of me.
Video;
[And then a beat, and Frank frowns. Wait, what?] Do you mean this happens a lot to you? Waking up somewhere else, out of the blue?
