[ VIDEO ] - [ Hydrogen ]

[ Well, if you didn't want to see a close-up of Prince Gumball's pink orchid face for the opening of this video then today is not your lucky day. After exploring the extent of his little pink amaranth iStarfish, figuring out its purpose, trying to get it to play techno music and dying in the first level of a game he found on it, he decided to use it to communicate.

However, he pressed record too quickly and started the video prematurely. After a moment, he pulled it away so the network can be greeted with a more normal shot.

Generally, when Gumball finds himself kidnapped or in another dimension or possessed, Fionna is efficient and heroic enough to save him within a reasonable timeframe. This time, it's been a while so he decides to take matters into his own hands to see what the hold-up is.

He is also feeling a little extra impatient given how...wet the current location is and how his pink salmon rainboots are nowhere in sight. ]


Greetings, citizens of Vatheon! My name is Prince Gumball of the Candy Kingdom. Though my stay thus far has been nice-- [ and he thinks that's being kind ]-- I worry about my subjects back home and their low tolerance for stress. If you could be so kind as to direct me to your nearest ship port or best place to create a wormhole back home, I would be delightfully grateful. Ideally, I'd like to return on the morrow but if one is not available, my previous requests are sufficient.

[ He holds up a wet and sandy towel between his pinched fingers. ]

Also, is there a towel butler around? I'd like to receive a new towel at your soonest convenience, I dropped mine.

Well I don't have the power to summon him. I don't think he can even hear me here. I didn't even dream last night. And he's busy. I've only met him a half dozen times myself.

[Percy sighs and colors a little. This is embarrassing!]

I have ADHD. Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder. It means I have trouble paying attention, particularly for long stretches of time. I start wondering what it's like to have horns or why you have the Cancer symbol on your shirt or trying to figure out what the hell a "matespritship" is while you keep talking. I've also been pacing and kicking sand around this entire time.

I can get it. It just takes me a little longer.

Did I ask you to summon him? If the scientists want to bring him here, they will, and we'll both see what happens then. Until that point, you know my stance.

[He just raises an eyebrow to the explanation.]

Sounds like a sorry excuse for "shitty listener". I already told you what matespritship is, right there, first quadrant. As for the other things, having horns is badass and beats lacking them in every way possible, and I have a so-called Cancer symbol on my shirt because it's my sign, and when my team and I made earth some of our aspects affected it. It doesn't mean Cancer on my planet and is unrelated to the 48 signs of our own zodiac, but I will not explain what it does mean since that's another incredibly long story I have no patience to tell you.

Whatever, dude.

It's not an excuse. It's a learning disability.

[Ruuude.]

What do you mean you made Earth?

[Karkat still doesn't care. Rude, yes.]

I mean I had a part in it coming into existence. Not your Earth, technically, but the earth from the collective of linked universes from which the scientists have drawn me, my team, and other related individuals into this place.

I will give you the stupid version that explains almost nothing: A team of twelve trolls with me as leader played a game called Sgrub. Part of the game involved frog breeding. I helped our frog breeder for the ultimate goal of breeding the Genesis Frog, which is literally a universe, and furthermore shaped in outcome by the actions of the twelve of us within the game. That universe contained Earth, with humans and everything.

Well...that's really cool. Kind of makes everything I've done seem sort of trivial.

And that's why all your swooshy water tricks don't send me down bowing before you in awe. Not that I even do that for the gods I do believe in. And yes, I know you said you're only half, but that's beside the point.

Hey, I never said I wanted you to bow down before me in awe. Just telling you who I am.
