Hey. is this thing- oh. Hey!
[The kid on screen gives a gap-toothed grin at the camera.]
Oh man. Okay, this is gonna sound pretty whack to just say out of nowhere, but... is everyone here actually human? Or, well, most of ya, I guess. [He pauses, takes a breath - gotta keep himself calm, make a good impression - and gives a quick wave.] But hey, I'm Finn! Finn the Huma- huh, that's totally tables now, isn't it?
[ A n y w a y ]
I was gonna ask if you guys had seen a few people, since I guess this place pulls people here randomly? But it looks like things've been pretty bananas around here. Anyone need a hand?

Not everyone here is human! There are vampires and robots and fairies.
video
So... are... [Play it cool, Finn.] .... Are you a fairy or something?

AHEM.] Man, that's way math! And you mean actual human, right? Not secretly some wacky fish person?
no subject
Math? But, yeah, no, not a mermaid or anything! Regular human. Though my hair's great enough that I could totally be mistaken for a mermaid if you didn't know any better.
video;
Hey, Finn. New in cray humantown?
[yes, that's how she's starting this.]
It's some weird biz, right?
video;
[He makes a face] It's such weird biz. I mean, I apparently have some weird magic powers too or-- oh gob I'm not gonna go wiz cuckoo am I?!
[Finn, don't be rude]
video;
Nah, man, Porter doesn't work like that! Your brain's not gonna turn into a wad of magic mush, relax. You just get here?
video;
It doesn't? [BREATH OF RELIEF] Oh, man- yeah, I just got here a few hours ago. They wanted to take me to my new digs, but... [But his new digs are distinctly Jake-less, and after what star!Billy told him and the whole universe switch? He needed to just wander around and freak out about everything for a while.] I dunno how anything can beat a super tricked out treehouse, so I'm investigating!
[No, Finn, you're like hyperventilating over everything ever.]
video;
The treehouse is pretty rad... [it's technically hers, after all. she knows how deeply radical it is.]
Wait. What's the last thing you remember? [you look older. and your voice finally finished cracking. what the heck, man.] This place has some freaky time-warp stuff going on.
video
Hey, Finn! [Uh.] Yeah, it's pretty strange being in a place where most people are human. It's mad different from how things are in Ooo, but I guess this is super math for you, huh?
video
It's way math! I mean, I- this is nothing like with the Hyoomans everyone's way obvs human here. [Oh, but that means-] Wait, are... are you okay here? Is there a Flame Kingdom? Or something pretty sims?
video
video
Or ten.]
Oh yeah? That's... that's good. [Oh maaaaaan he can just feel that awkwardness descending over him.] And I guess it'll be kinda nice to go on vacation for a while. [Which is, for once, actually the truth. After all, Finn's still sort of reeling from the fact that Dad the Human is apparently still alive. And getting away from having to deal with that for a while sounds... pretty nice.]
Oh. [Speaking of friends] Hey, FP. Is anyone else from Ooo here? Like... Jake, Princess Bubblegum, Ice King, LSP, or - [UGH] - Cinnamon Bun? Or is it just you, me, and Marceline?
video
What happened before you came here, anyway? This place can be really messed up with time junk and bringing people in and taking them back out and sometimes it makes people forget they were here when they showed up before and... [Uh.] Yeah. Like I said, messed up.
video
[His tentatively cheerful expression falters a bit into actual confusion at what Flame Princess is telling him. That's... weird. Like, full-on Prismo style weird.]
Wait, how long have you been here? If I've shown up and left and you've- but you're not- and I don't-
[............. caution, brain processes reaching critical mass. meltdown imminent.
You can almost see the smoke starting to come out of his ears.]
video
Anyway, I've been here for... I guess about nine months altogether? But it's been kind of fragmented. There was a period where I was gone for a few months but didn't remember going home after I came back, and then I went home for a year but when I came back here only a couple of weeks had passed.
Like I said, it's really confusing.
video
--Wait, no. Not like, super-human but SUPER human.
video
Hey, who knows, maybe you are super-human! We all have these cool powers right? It could be like- ba-BLAM! [He steps back from the camera, miming out an explosion with his hands and then punching the air for effect] And there you go- way supes human.
video
video
[Look at him, waving his arms around excitedly while trying to map out a stair step effect.]
We could even quest to level up to each level, it'd be- [He stops, opens his mouth, presses his hands to his cheeks and makes a slow, drawn out, wonderfully excited gasping noise as realization takes its hold.] It'd be just like a video game.
video
But... what are jam diggity humans? And how can I be one?
[video]
Yeah, it's pretty random. And yup, there are more humans around here than not-really-humans and not-humans-at-all. I think.

[Traveling with a talking dog and duck is the most normal thing what are you talking about. And then there's the chipmunks working on the Gummi too.]
I don't need a hand though, I have my friend Riku here too, so I'm okay! But I guess a lot of us might not be so lucky. Oh, right. I'm Sora by the way!
no subject
[Some day, they really need to bond over having talking dog bffs.]
That's cool, having friends around really is super lucky. [He pauses, already really missing having Jake around. Thank gob FP and Marceline are here, though.] Sora, huh? Nice t'meetcha, bro!
no subject
[Dogs are the best, okay? Even Pluto.]
It is pretty lucky! I was just looking for Riku back home too. Are any of your friends around, Finn?
[Either way, Sora will probably near instantly bff Finn anyway. Like he does. But especially if he's here alone.]
video;
Uh. Last time I checked, I'm human. Still a weird question, but I get why it's so common.
Who're you looking for? Maybe I know someone?
video;
Oh yeah! Basically anyone from Ooo other than me, Marceline, and Flame Princess. But I guess either Peebs or Jake. Jake's a dog, but you'd have probably already known my name if you'd seen him. Princess Bubblegum is the other one I'd really need to find, if she's here. [Wait, but if this place could take anyone...] Oh snaps! BMO, too, he's a little game system.
[Everyone else would be nice to find, but... well, those are the super main ones right now. After all, Lady and most of the others can take care of themselves for a few hours. Kinda.]
video;
I'm positive I'm 100% human. You know, just... A human with super powers now, apparently.
[ She shrugs. ]
--Marceline? I know her! The Vampire Queen, right? I don't know any of those other guys, but I've totally met her already. She's pretty cool.
[ A pause. ]
Uh.
He's a little game system? Like a living one?
no subject
Why do you ask?
no subject
[He just sounds really excited about it.]
Oh, yeah. I've never actually met other humans. Everyone kinda thinks we're extinct-ish back home. I don't usually think about it too much.
no subject
[He's curious about it, but he doesn't think it's polite to ask, considering the boy says he doesn't think about it.]
I'm Riku. Nice to meet you.

video;
You know what, I didn't even think about that. The only people I've been running into are seriously people-shaped. I wonder if there's like a city wide census or something. That would be neat.
video;
Oh yeah, people shaped is pretty good. And you are the right color, kinda. Most people shaped peeps I know are pink. Or made of fire. Or undead.
video;
Wow.
Seriously? [ She wonders if there are warlocks in his world. That could explain the pink. Or the fire. Not the undead though. ]
