[ The video comes on and Louis is front and center. He got a grasp on the technology pretty quickly. He's... annoyed, and he's not good at hiding it, either. His tone is just as annoyed. Like. He can't believe he has to go over this. ]

So, since this is the best way to get the message out from what I can tell, and I'm sick of repeating myself, so I'll only say this once.

[ Pause. He has a long pause between each of the words. ]

I.

Am.

Not.

A.

Monster.

[ He lifts the camera up to get a full view of his head, to get a good shot at every angle. ]

I am just a deer. I arrived here like this.

[ Frown. ]

Any questions?

[A deer. Well, alright. Sure, why not!]

Did you get told you were a monster, or a witch? I have to admit, I'm a little curious if you're going to be a monster, and what that'll mean.

[rightfoot]

I'm a witch. I'm not even a little bit a monster.

That makes two of us! But in my case I'm just a boring human, ahaha.

My name is Monika, it's nice to meet you!

[rightfoot]

I don't know if humans are boring. I've never seen one before arriving here, at least.

I'm Louis.

[loadme]

Wow, really? That's pretty wild for me to think about.

[And yet not wild at all, in a way.]

So are they all like you?

[rightfoot]

I mean, getting here was pretty weird. But, humans seem... generally nice. Not too different from home.

[ Hmm. ]

Well. No. We have a lot of different species.

[loadme]

I'm glad you ended up finding the nice ones. Not everyone is like that, you know.

But I bet you probably already figured that out.

[rightfoot]

No. They aren't. Many aren't like that at home, either. I mean, other than the species thing, humans and animals where I'm from are similar.

[loadme]

It's kind of funny, isn't it? How our worlds can be so different, but also same in some aspects.

[rightfoot]

It's interesting, if I'm honest. I'm pretty excited to meet humans.

[loadme]

I can only speak for myself, but I sure hope I can live up to your expectations!
