[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.

Yes. There are, aren't there. [She sounds briefly pensive over that, as if she needed the reminding.]

I still made the shrine, you know. In this world. My other time counterpoint must have done the same thing. It's on the rooftop garden of the Flop. I stop by regularly to maintain it.

[frostedoverland]

Did you? I'll have to take a look then. I always liked what you did with it before.

[video]

[girlworthfighting]

I'm glad. [And it elicits a softly amused smile.] It's not often we get to hear first-hand what the spirits think of our handiwork.

[video]

[frostedoverland]

Well, I'm not exactly a spirit that needs a shrine, so my opinion may not matter that much, but I can still like it anyway.

[video]

[girlworthfighting]

You may not feel that you 'need' it, but I value your opinion anyway.

[He's honestly not that used to this so he just... looks sheepish.]

Thanks.

[video]

[girlworthfighting]

You have nothing to thank me for.

I'm sorry that I haven't always remembered to talk to you. I'm not really good at that; keeping track of people, I guess. It's one thing when it's someone you travel with, or family you see every day...anyway, I need to try and be better. At being a friend, I suppose.

[frostedoverland]

It's not like I'm any better.

[He gives her a reassuring smile.]

I'm too used to being on my own. I tend to forget I have people here. And that they're friends.

[video]

[girlworthfighting]

Believe me I know the feeling.

Perhaps we should make plans to meet up, sometime this week, or this month. And do something.

[video]

[frostedoverland]

Yeah, sure, I'd like that. What... would you like to do? You seemed not want to have fun last time...

[video]

[girlworthfighting]

Am I really that bad? [Can't really go anyway but blunt here.]

[video]

[frostedoverland]

Well, you did yell at me last time. [He gives her an amused smile.] But no, I don't think you're that bad. If you were, you'd be like Bunny.

[video]

[girlworthfighting]

I'll take that as something of a relief then. I think.
