[The video opens on a patch of blue sky, with some birds flying by. The camera turns and there's a surprisingly green girl giving a smile and a wave. And apparently holding the comm with no hands. She floats (??) peacefully for a bit, wind catching her cape before looking at the camera again.]

Hey, everyone! I'm Miss Martian. But you can call me M'gann. Just thought I'd introduce myself. A-and even though I am actually from Mars, I promise I'm not here to invade or anything! I mean, an invasion of just one person isn't a very good invasion. And I'd probably go all undercover so you wouldn't even notice... It'd be pretty easy actually.

[She actually appears to be considering the logistics of an alien invasion before remembering herself.]

Anyways! I'm really excited to meet everyone and I hope we can be friends!

Well, I already had... something different, but I'm in the process of changing it now, anyway.

[wifeonmars]

I didn't know you could do that. It's not like there's paperwork you can fill out.

...Unless there is here? Seems like something the government would like.

[alreadywon]

[Slightly wry:] It's not something I plan to tell the government.

[wifeonmars]

--Right. Right! Government and Bats, super not compatible.

Some other guy was telling me my codename is lame, so I might have to change mine, too. [She's joking, but Santo's words did bother her.]

[alreadywon]

Well, you're no Marvin the Martian, but I've never had a problem with it. [That was maybe not all that comforting? whoop.]

[wifeonmars]

It works! And it makes sense. [She pauses for a moment, considering.]

Y'know, I've always wondered why there are so many bird codenames in Gotham when most of you can't fly.

[alreadywon]

Maybe we all secretly really want to fly?

Or Robin just set a precedent.

Bats and birds, huh? I guess it's nice to have a theme.
