[The feed turns on with a shadowy figure floating in the seat. Two beady eyes blink once before giving a wave at the screen with its bubbly arm. Small bits of shadowy dust can be seen floating around the shadowy figure, and two distinctive things other than the smiling, drooling face are the question mark on its head as well as the glowing light on its chest area.]

Hello there! This place is called Smash Academy, right? My name is Ecolo!

Oh, I noticed weird shadow things around! Weird, isn't it~? I wonder what they are~!

[Did he just manage to wrestle up this creature to help with the Shadow Bugs? He's better than he thought at being charismatic.]

I don't doubt that if you want some kind of academy-wide attention, those bugs will need to be dealt with first. Things paralysing people with fear tend to hold their attention longer.

I wonder if I can do something fun with the shadows while I'm at it? Maybe combine them into a bigger one~? I wonder if they stick together like clay!

Ehehehe, I'm going to try this next time I go outside~!

[liberatedhotcakes]

It might not be as fun as you're thinking it'll be. I'd recommend trying to be a little more cautious.

[fakespeech]

You won't know if it's fun until you try~! If it really isn't fun then I just don't need to keep trying it, right~?

Pretty sure people don't see the possibility of getting hurt as fun. We've had some run-ins with people dying or being fatally wounded. No one is going to enjoy that. Unless they're the ones doing the killing.

It's okay, because I wouldn't get hurt that bad. But you're acting like a mom and I don't like that.

Nagging moms are no fun. Bye!

[And Ecolo ends the feed. So rude, Ecolo!]
