[You've probably seen this kid running around for the last two weeks, shrieking excitedly when he notices you're a human being (or fish person, or troll, or whatever; he's pretty excitable). But it's only now he attacks the network, all smiles and cheer.]

Holy SCHMAO, you guys, I've never seen so many humans! This is amazing! Where I'm from-- well, my name is Finn, first off! Finn the Human, from the land of Ooo! I'm basically a knight there, it's pretty great. I fight evil and stuff with my brother! But I'm the last human being ever, and I've never seen any others before-- but here you all are! Which is awesome!  We should all get together and talk about human stuff. What do you eat? Do you like bacon pancakes? What about--

[Oh wait no he had a message here. Finn takes a breath and adds:]

Anyway, uh-- I know things are kind of bumslops right now, but, uh, you gotta just keep your chin up! Sometimes being a hero means nobody likes you very much, or they think you're wrong, or even making mistakes. But as long as you're trying to do the right thing, you're all right!

Oh, and-- if anybody needs lessons in being a hero, I'm totally free. I've got, like, a billion years experience in it.

[the_human]

So am I!

[He shouts it at her, his arms in the air!]

What's your name?

[datastream]

Ene! [She throws her arms in the air too!]

What kind of people are in your world if not humans?

Do you have like... talking dogs or something? [dat guess.]

[the_human]

Yeah! My whole family is talking dogs! And there's candy people, and wizards, and dragons, and berry people, and meat people, and monsters-- all sorts!

[datastream]

Ehh?! Ah... Wow!

[She's actually taken aback.] That's really diverse! It seems a lot more interesting than a world of just humans.

[Though she can't really say she belongs in one of those either...]

[the_human]

It's pretty rad. I just wish I could have both.

[Bu-ut he's gonna try and change the subject.]

What's it like where you're from?

[datastream]

Oh, it's pretty ordinary. We don't have knights or heroes or anything like that. We just go to school and learn about [She makes the most disgusted face.] math and stuff.

[the_human]

Aw, no, math is awesome! You just gotta get to the good stuff, that's all.

[datastream]

I never understood equations and stuff...! Haru-- [Gah no.] Someone always had to help me. And I went to summer school.

[Huff huff.] I'd rather slay dragons and be a cool hero, honestly!

[the_human]

You should do both. Hey, you can here! And I could help you with math!
