[As per usual, though you can't see Jack will be getting a video of nothing other than the scenery outside of Poseidon, those you can, will see him, of course! Text below follows soon after, even if he does want to say something but this wasn't really for the people who already knew him.]

Probably should have expected all the new faces but I really didn't. New timeline, new faces, gotta keep remembering that. In any case, I'm numero tres on the Spirit That Needs to be Believed In list. I'm Jack Frost.

[A pause in the typing...]

Yes, that Jack Frost. No, my parents weren't being weird or anything. The name I had before I became Jack Frost doesn't have much in common other than my first name. I know I'm not as popular as Tooth or North... er, Santa to you guys. But I really do exist and contrary to what some people say, no I'm not an invisible mutant kid with ice powers. I don't have the X-Gene, nor does it actually occur on my version of Earth. I'm just your common nature spirit that happens to be the one bringing Winter to you guys and working double time lately because of global warming.

But I doubt you want to hear me rant about that. If anything else, I would really appreciate it if you guys put aside your disbelief and actually believe in Tooth, Akito, and I. I know it seems simple, since I am here typing this all out but it's not as simple as you think. You really have to truly believe I'm Jack Frost, I'm the Spirit of Winter who nips at your nose. Tooth is the Tooth Fairy who leaves behind goodies after taking the tooth/teeth you left under your pillow, and Akito is a Wind Spirit, responsible for keeping the winds in check. It really shouldn't be that hard but some of you guys are surprisingly stubborn than most adults.

And adults are unknown territory. Especially for me. I usually deal with kids, after all. Guardian of Fun and responsible for all those awesome snow days that have been existing for a few hundred years now, thank you very much. But seriously, just bear with me. I'm not... used to trying to make adults believe in me. Since you got all that science and logic getting in the way of actually seeing what's, literally, right in front of you.

[Kerra watches with interest. Clearly there was something there. And computers couldn't do that.]

Can you...do that over here? Or do you have to touch it? Because I believe you're definitely here. Like, you're an entity and not some trick of the light. But feeling things is usually how I measure real from unreal.

[She's trying. Really. The Force she didn't believe in till it touched her for the first time, though.]

Where is over here?

[Kerra's actually out for a walk, so she pans the camera around. It's one of the squares in Poseidon]

Sorry, not sure exactly the name of the place. Looks like by the signs, Whaley Street?

You'll know when I've found you, then.

[Because sure enough, after perhaps ten minutes, Jack's found the place and with him, as always, sends a bit of a cool breeze. And on the signs, frost blooms as he hangs off the Whaley Street sign.]

Hello.

[Kerra waits around, but the sudden change in temperature definitely makes her eyebrows rise. And then there's the frost. Well...that certainly wasn't normal. Almost like someone was putting it there. She touches it. And yeah, it's cold. Real cold.

...looking around, Kerra catches a hazy outline of someone just coming into view. Maybe it's just his presence in the Force, or maybe it's him, she's not sure...but there is something there.]

Jack Frost?

[She looks surprised, to say the least. See, Jedi to believe in the unseen, but there had to be some reason for it.]

[He jumps off the sign post and walks up to her, nodding.]

That'd be me.

[He tilted his head at her, raising a brow.]

Can... you see me?

Vaguely? I can feel your presence. But it's still a little hazy.

[She waves a hand in his general direction]

Shake on it? Maybe that'll work?

[Okay, so she can hear him, but he's more or less not seen. Shake her hand...? Jack isn't sure that would work though, but... maybe she just needs the physical proof now too? Aside from frost, anyway.

So he raises his hand to take hers and shake, it's not very solid, since it was still depending on her to believe, but it was kind of nice to feel something.]

[It's the Force, Jack. Blame the Force.

Now the...handshake? She feels that. And blinks in surprise as it all sort of clicks. Physical proof, a sense of him in the Force, and the idea all coming together are enough to make it so.]

Oh. Oh hey! You're...a lot younger looking that I thought you'd be.

[Awkwardly she rubs the back of her head]

Hi. I'm Kerra. Kerra Holt.

Uh, yeah, you kind of... stop aging when you become a spirit and stuff.

[he grins slightly and shrugs.]

Jack Frost.

Huh. You...became one?

[She rubs the back of her head, a quirky little smile on her face]

Nice to meet you Jack. Had no idea there were things like you out there. Guess I needed to be kinda clued in.

Yeah. I was 17 so I'm sort of stuck as 17.

[Because being between adulthood and childhood is soooo much fun. Not.]

I'm mostly on Earth, so if you're not from that planet, it's not too hard to figure out why you never heard of me.

Yeah. I'm not. I'm from a place called Aquilaris. I've heard about Earth, but I'm from a completely different galaxy.

Wow, so people from other planets. [It's seriously really surprising. He didn't really know humans existed any where else.] What's Aquilaris like?

Yep. Whole other galaxy.

[She shrugs at the question though.]

It's kind of a backwater fishing colony. Most of the planet is underwater, but it supplies the Grumani sector with a lot of fresh food. The land's basically rocky, and most of us live on floating cities.

...I thought you said most of it is underwater though?
