[ Hello Riverview! Today the feed opens with... the close-up of a face covering the whole visual. Wide, round, and unsettling eyes, with a potato nose and a smiling mouth that looks so enormous it takes up half of the screen and, if you pay close attention, you might be able to see the bottom of his throat.

Jyushimatsu is not aware that he's way too close to the camera. He never had a cellphone back home and never bothered with technology in general. It doesn't help that it seems he can't keep the device steady as his image is shaky at best and completely blurry at worst. It might hurt your eyes, so don't stare too much.

But anyway! Onto the more important things! ]

HI EVERYONE I'M JYUSHIMATSU NICE TO MEET YOU!

[ Sorry for your eardrums, too.

Thankfully his voice lowers after the introduction. ]

I came here a few weeks ago and I work as a mascot for the Riverview Rams! It's a baseball team! You should root for them!

But I'm using this thing now because I wanna do something super fun with you guys after the bad things that happened last month! Have you heard about softball? I didn't, until a cool guy told me about it a while ago! It's like baseball, but it's smaller and the balls are bigger!

[ He's also terribly bad at providing explanations. And the screen is gradually getting soaked in his spit. ]

SO!!! How about we just have a match? We form two teams and beat each other up with softball! Sounds great, right?

This is just an interest check, I guess? Let me know if you wanna join! I'll be waiting all day!


[ FILTERED @ WALLY WEST... after he spent a long time trying and failing. One of his brothers had to teach him. ]

Hey look, I did the thing! Was that good? Think lots of people are gonna join?

[ He flails at the camera, now standing at a proper distance. ]

Comments

I will consider it. My job is with the police force so I will have to see if it allows me much free time.

[ A pause, he tilts his head. ]

You are speaking very close to the device, by the way. You do not want to risk damaging it.

[yakyuuman]

... EEEEH? Really?!

[ He jerks himself away from the camera, shocked and appalled! Actually, he almost tosses the device to the other side of his bedroom, but thankfully that doesn't happen. ]

Uhhhh... is it better like this?

[quartercoin]

That is much better. Apologies, I didn't mean to alarm you.

[ A pause and Connor's LED flashes yellow. ]

I haven't had the opportunity to play sports yet. What exactly do you find so fun about baseball?

[yakyuuman]

[ That LED thing makes Jyushi curious for like two seconds, then the question about BASEBALL!!! completely sways him as he beams a Connor through the camera. ]

Everything about baseball is super fun! Throwing balls, hitting balls, swinging the bat so many times, I feel satisfied everytime I reach a milestone! Like ten thousand swings in one sitting!

[ How is he human- ]

Have you got a sport you like?

[quartercoin]

[ Connor's LED flashes again, eyes a little wide for a second. ]

Ten thousand? You must have considerable upper arm strength.

[ He's back to his perfect posture quickly though. ]

I am not sure yet. My friend enjoyed basketball, so I have some knowledge of that.

[yakyuuman]

I've got a load of it! I can throw people several blocks away with no effort!

[ He's a YEET expert, especially when he practices that on his bros. ]

That's no good! You should learn more about sports, they're fun and improve the quality of your life! Especially if it's baseball!
