[Hello there, Asgard. Have a troll, laying back on his bed in his room over in Hel house. He's got his pillows and blankets piled against the wall, leaning back against them with his knees bent up and his arms pulled in around his stomach. He's set the bracelet on the nightstand, where it records him looking down at his fingers while he plays with his nails and thinks for a moment. Then he looks up at the recording, taking in a deep breath before he starts.]

Alright, so after explaining what the fuck I am and what I've done for the two-thousand-eight-hundred-and-thirty-sixth time, I think it's time to get a little back from at least the halfway-intelligent of the rest of you.

Basically, I have way too much fucking time on my hands all of a sudden, and I don't know really know what to do with it, so I might as well get a little more involved in the "community" if I have to put up with all of you nooksucking woobie idiots. In short, you can all be reassured that it's out of sheer, mind-numbing boredom that I'm even acknowledging the minuscule amount of curiosity I harbor toward the multitude of universes you've all been unceremoniously ripped from at what I can only assume was the worst moment possible. If you haven't caught on yet, I'll make it perfectly clear what I'm talking about.

I want you to tell me where you're from. Describe to me, in the most intelligent manner possible, what your home world was like. And don't just give me stupid hoofbeastshit stories. I might have copious amounts of time, but not enough for you to waste with grueling dribble about exactly how vaguely "cool" or "awesome" or "boring" your world is. Make it interesting.

[He pauses, making a bit of a face as he realizes something.]

Oh, yeah.

If anyone else from Alternia has gotten here, and we haven't talked yet, we need to, so get a hold of me.

[What an amazingly vulgar person -- he doesn't even know half the things he's being called, and while that makes Allen bristle a little, it's not particularly visible in his composure as he considers the grey-skinned boy on the screen.

The thing is, Karkat, you're not the only one who's had to describe your home world two-thousand-eight-hundred-and-thirty-six times by now, and Allen's probably even less accustomed to trying to put these sorts of things in words. All in all, it's gotten just a little bit old by now.

In the end, what you get is--]

... Do you truly have nothing better to do than provoking others for entertainment?

Not here, I don't.

[It entertains him more when people react this way, actually. It's all new.]

So you are not interested in returning to your world, and have no problems cooperating with the whims of 'gods'?

[Headtilt. Answering questions with questions time.]

I'm not cooperating. And as interesting as it would be, I'm not going to go rushing back to being in constant danger.

That's fair. However, your presence here is 'cooperation', it seems.

It's not like I'm going around making the world a better place.

... When were we told to 'make the world a better place'...?

[It's actually... kind of morbidly fascinating to see how many different interpretations and ideas have grown up around the vague mission they've been given.]

Didn't you read the letter? We're bringing life to the city, apparently.

Of course. The same letter also called the powers we have been given 'gifts', and threatened both our existence here and our homes.

[No, he's not all that sure about their 'gifts', especially given what he's seen of the nature of Freya so far.]

Yeah. I think it's bullshit, and I'm not focusing on any goals they gave me.

But you will accept living here?

[His tone isn't much more than curious; carefully neutral.]

Until it goes to shit, or an alternative route opens.

[He wonders if this grey-skinned person simply likes this place better than his homeland (possible), or if he's another with nowhere else to go. It's probably the first.]

... Is it truly that terrible, where you're from?

[The other grey-skinned people hadn't seemed quite so settled.]
