[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!

[That gets a laugh.]

I never really thought about it like that! I guess it's pretty true.

Right? That's my leading theory on why all my siblings say that high school is so awful.

[wifeonmars]

High school is fun! That might just be because I like Earth so much, though.

[fastballspeciaaaaal]

Really? You like Earth that much? I woulda thought Mars would be a lot cooler. [Was that a pun? Maybe. Who knows.]

[wifeonmars]

Mars is definitely cooler in that it's really cold. But it's mostly just red rocks and sand. There's a lot more variety here on Earth.
