Video | welcome, hallo, buenos días, ohayō, etc, etc! | UN: Newt

[groupiedrifter]

[Newt comes shuffling into view on the screen, holding a cup of coffee in his hand with a bag of what seems to be Sour Patch Kids harrowingly hanging out from beneath the pinky finger of the very same hand. Disheveled but more than happy to provide his services after dragging himself out of bed, he taps his knuckle on the chalkboard beside him — one that used to be Hermann Gottlieb's, may he rest in peace (in a not dead way — may he rest in peace on a beach or something while wholly alive and thriving).]

Noticed an influx of new and kinda-new faces over the last few days or weeks or whatever.

So here's my handy dandy welcome board! Recently updated, to keep with the times.

Read it over and get a feel for how this place goes; I'm gonna finish off this coffee before I take any questions.

[As he takes the world's most obnoxious-sounding sip and burns his tongue, here's the board in question:]



[And then, after a bit of time, he turns the board over to the other side:]



[No worries, current crew, if you can't get one of those introduction papers in person!

Because he's attached them in file format, too.]

[zune]

okay, try me — what's your superpower? is it laser eyes? flying? going through walls?

[ aka not at all close to painting anymore; peter's on another tangent ]

i can barely draw a circle, you calling this nothing isn't doing much for my confidence level

[inventure]

if my superpower was flying why would i want to learn how to fly a plane?

[ geez, peter, think. ]

but hey don't feel bad! i've been drawing since i could hold a pencil, it'd be sad if i wasn't any good, you know?

[zune]

[ hold on little squirt!!!

considering he'd literally put 'flying' (as in ships) under his favourite activity and then 'flying' under his superpower wish, there's absolutely a distinction between the two in his mind

AND NOW HE WILL EXPLAIN THE WAYS ]

you know there's a difference between flying and flying a plane, right?
