[ the feed comes on to show a boy with very tall hair and a much shorter girl with scratches on her face over her eye, one looking rather cheerful and the other less so. ]

Hi hi hi everyone, I have an important question. [ he holds up a finger, tilts his head as if a thought had just occurred to him. he's so preoccupied he was going to launch himself into his spiel without even introducing himself. ] I'm being rude. I am Henry Cheng, and we were wondering —

[ the not so tall and in fact very short girl interrupts. ] We're looking for someone we know! [ she pulls a little face, looking over at Mr. Henry Cheng. ] A few people, actually. [ okay, maybe that was a little rude. she murmurs something unintelligible and takes a step back. please, proceed. ]

And that was my lovely friend Blue. [ he gestures with a flourish toward her, shoots her a wink, absolutely unbothered by the interruption or her outburst. ] As she said, we are looking for someone. Multiple someones. I'm sure this place has a list of sorts, yes? A quick way to CTRL-F a friend's name and find out their status?

[ he looks a bit more serious, then, like underneath the cheerfulness he's exhausted. his next words are very earnest. ]

We would appreciate any info. Thank you.

[ in the background, Blue begins tromping away, shedding dead leaves for some reason, and can be vaguely heard to say 'maybe we should've mentioned Gansey by name' before the video ends. ]

Yes, it's a total mystery as to whether or not he's interested in those.

[ Total mystery. ]

And Welsh kings...

Is he interested in Welsh kings? I had no idea.

How about magic?

Indeterminate. He might've mentioned it once or twice, but I can't really recall.

[ A laugh. ]

What about you? What do you like?

[ What does she like? Hm. ] Gansey, though we already covered that. Yogurt, no fruit on the bottom.

Traveling, in theory. Bright orange Camaros, I guess.

Wait - why only in theory?

[ There's a sort of shrugging motion and some leaf litter scattering here. ] It's something I want to do.

[ Yes, this trip to the Twilight Zone is the first time Blue Sargent's gotten to travel much of anywhere. Yay. ]

Well, where d'you want to go most?

[ Does she get to talk about this?

Should she? ] Well, the rainforest. Brazil.

[ She nods energetically. ]

I wonder if Billy can do that...He can teleport people, you know. He might be able to take you and Gansey on a day trip there.

[ Oh.

Well. She perks up a bit. ] Teleport people? Really [ Wait. ] Is Billy someone else I knew?

[ Oh Blue, if only you knew. ]

You knew him, yeah.

[ Her ears flick. ]

He's my flatmate. And he's lovely. You'll really like him.

Oh, okay. [ Instead of sounding resigned, like before, she sounds a bit perkier about this. So that's something? ] I think I'd like to meet him. I mean, I think that'd be good, you know?

[ Also, it's bugging me, so pretend she said Venezuela up there. It's important and I'm stupid??? ]

[ There's clear pleasure in the way her whiskers perk up. ]

That'd be really good. He can take you anywhere, really. Plus he's so sweet. And needs more friends! I ought to bring him along - I was thinking of having a tea, to introduce a friend of mine around, and I really ought to bring Billy too. So you can meet him.

[ It's sort of an adventure, reading the moods of a cat. ]

All right, I think-- yeah, I'd like that. [ She says this like, 'it'll be good for me.' Or something. ] We all have to start somewhere, right?
