I understand that this messaging forum has been provided to us as a convenient method of coordinating plans and sharing information among ourselves both before and during missions, given that there is no centralised command structure.

However, I also believe that it is used informally to poll and survey guild members more casually, to gather information on member opinions, beliefs and lifestyles.

I have been asked by a few people about my own world, but I find myself lacking in education enough to describe it to others, with this place being the only other frame of reference I have to go off of.

Therefore, I would like to ask others to describe their own worlds to me, in reference to this one, so that I might better understand how it might be done, and how my own seems to fit into the larger picture.

Thank you.

[The video is carefully cropped so 82736775's face isn't visible, focused at chest-level. A chest that is clothed in a nebulously green fabric, incidentally (it's a dinosaur kigurumi).]

Hey, what up. So a-a-apparently nobody else is sick of sitting around and waiting for fake impossible "magic answers" to land in our lap with respect to our job. Remember that thing we're supposed to be doing? About the freakin' endless darkness plaguing this world? Yeah.

[His hands come into frame, holding a beat-up metal tube with a bunch of science-looking shit stuck to it, like some lights and buttons and stuff. Maybe there are some exposed wires but don't pay any attention to that.]

This... is a telescope. I'm showing it to you in case you come from a world where they're called something dumb. Like a sky-tube or something, I dunno. Just trying to mitigate stuUUuuurr-- stupid questions.

I have an ass-load of these things and I can make more. If you're wondering how, the answer is I'm a genius. [He lowers the telescope.] They're all hooked up to my, uh... something I have; th-th-that -- that's not important. The point is, I need volunteers to take these things out to the highest vantage points around, aim them at the sky, and take readings.

[One finger goes up.] First, if you don't know how to look through one end of a thing and listen for beeps, you're too stupid to use these so don't even ask. Go hit some shit with rocks, that's pr-probably more your speed.

[A second finger goes up.] Don't use them to be peeping toms. This is science, not an excuse to be a gross purrrrr-- perv.

[A third finger goes up.] This all needs to be at the same time. In a few days, the sky should be clear enough for a decent reading across the b-- urrrp -- board.

Serious inquiries only. I'm not here to dick around. Name a place and I'll drop off the machine.

[The hand throws up the sign of the horns before the video ends.] I'm out.

Ahem.

[The video reveals a rather proper looking young girl (ignore the old blood stains on her dress), sat in front of a rather impressive sprawl of vials, jars, and herbs.]

I am Sieglinde Sullivan, and though I have made some of your acquaintances, there are far more of you than one can expect me to know- so please consider this my formal introduction.

[She pauses, until. Yes, that's right, no one could reply yet.]

My true purpose in contacting you all is to find out who among you is capable of healing, whether that be in the scientific or magical sense. I am aware of some of you, but I could use some assistance in the production of potions and salves if there are any among you competent with such things.

Even someone unskilled could be of use if you are willing to learn and have a steady hand.

I would also appreciate the chance to speak more leisurely with those who may have knowledge of healing methods different from those of my own.

I await your contact with pleasure.

[And here's a small boy addressing his bracelet with a nervous smile.]

Hi everyone. My name's Steven Universe. Long time listener, first time caller.

I know a lot's been going on lately. And I'm still thinking of ideas of what to do about all of these problems. I can't even find anything to do a vlog about! But, I do have a few things to say and ask about.

First... were any of you hurt in those fights at the castle? I can help heal you if you want! It's just... kind of gross... [He rubs at his hair sheepishly. The perks of having healing spit...] Oh, but let me know if you found out anything cool too!

Secondly, there's the meat and potatoes of everything. We have to get the people and the goblins to get along! I've been thinking of trying to write a really cool song to push them in the right direction. Like... all I am saying, is give peace a chance! [He beams and gives a peace sign.] If anyone wants to work with me or has any cool ideas, just let me know!

And finally, I'm also accepting suggestions for my new friend Peridot. She might want to reprogram her robonoid, so I'm trying to make a cool list of ideas for new things that it can do. Like, what if it plays music all the time? That'd be pretty cool! I bet you all have great suggestions too.

Oh wait! I thought about one more thing. That whole... darkness, thing. [He glances around uncertainly.] We got a lot of people from a lot of different worlds here. Does anyone have any experience with suns going out? Maybe that can give us a new insight.

Um... I think that's everything. [He pokes at his chin thoughtfully and nods.] This is Steven Universe, signing out. Stay... or actually I should say, become sunny, Chantes!
