[ Video switches on to show a man with a ginger ponytail in a hideous green v-neck frowning deeply and looking incredibly disappointed and/or frustrated, sitting on a park bench as dusk settles in.]
Okay, I've been here for less than a day, so would someone mind explaining to me how it is that the United States government can allocate all these funds to keep us imPorts in nicely furnished, comfortable homes in several cities, and expect native businesses and companies to provide us with paid employment, yet its own citizens are still facing what seem like absurd rates of homelessness? Like I said, I only just arrived, but it didn't take me long to find people who have lost their jobs and homes to make way for the growing imPort population.
[ Someone spent his whole first day in Heropa in a park, befriending homeless people. Continuing on, he sighs heavily, as though this is personally wronging and inconveniencing him, not people he doesn't even know. ]
Don't get me wrong, I'm not saying we're to blame for this. After all, it's not as though it's our fault some unstable technology yanked us from our worlds and lives. Of course this world's government would have to provide for us until we can return home. But every single one of us has the responsibility to give back.
So, what are you doing to help? I'll be taking donations to start up a charity for natives displaced by our presence, if you can't come up with anything on your own.

[ He's actually curious for once. God it's so weird talking to Hartley normally.
It's always weird. ]
no subject
[ He's very fond, though. ]
no subject
[ He's not quite as fond, but he's not exactly angry or anything when he says that. ]
no subject
[ Spoken like a man who has endured this many times. ]
no subject
[ A beat. ] It's almost like he's a dog.
no subject
...That's kind of an apt description, actually. Do you ever get worried that if you don't pay enough attention to him, he'll destroy everything you own in a fit of boredom?
no subject
Oh I know he'll destroy everything in a fit of boredom. I may have made that mistake once already.
no subject
Oh, no. What did he do?
no subject
Oh, nothing serious. Nothing I couldn't clean up at least.
