[Arthur has spent a bit of time exploring this network, and he's been getting ever more excited over everything, because holy cow, this looks cool, and screw consequences, I have something exciting to play with. So he'll open up a video feed using his webcam. He is grinning broadly, waving merrily, and looking like a kid on Christmas morning.]

HELLO, EVERYONE!

[He'll turn to address the goldfish sitting in a bowl on the table next to him, even going through the trouble to adjust the webcam so the fish is in the shot along with him.]

See, Slippy? I TOLD you it would work! OUTRAGEOUS!

[And then he laughs. It's not a crazy man laugh, but man, this guy is certainly in a good mood.]

He's my friend, all right! Say hello to the nice man, Slippy!

[Well, the fish talks to Arthur. Just not anyone else. The fish will also obediently wave around a fin in an approximation of a human wave when Arthur tells him to say hello.]

[wastingtime]

How delightful! And how lucky he has you to translate. Not all the others do, after all.

[italktofish]

I can translate for any fish! Any fish at all! It's been amazing!

[He is just having so much fun with this power. So much.]

[wastingtime]

Any fish?

[italktofish]

If it lives in the ocean, I've been able to talk to it!

i am a slowpoke feel free to drop

[wastingtime]

Fascinating. And they're all sapient?

don't worry about it; I'll backtag forever~

[italktofish]

I don't know about that, but they all at least have something to say!

hello new best friend how are you today

[wastingtime]

Well, that's a start!

My name is Elian. It's good to meet you - and Slippy.

\o/

[italktofish]

It's excellent to meet you, my friend! My name's Arthur! Arthur Curry!

Someday, we should meet in person and talk fish, if you want to learn more about them!

[wastingtime]

Good to meet you, Arthur! Fish aren't my specialty, but I'd be a poor person if I wasn't interested in learning new things.

[italktofish]

Well, I didn't know a whole lot about them at first, but then I started talking to them and I learned a lot! I'd be happy to share sometime!
