[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.

[ most disgusted, disdainful face you'll ever see on akito, probably. ]

Global warming.

[She can't see him. She's never heard of a Jack Frost, not to mention only seen snow inside a virtual reality training program. Global warming picks up a lot when you douse the planet in nuclear warheads and burn everything at once. But she's a bit ticked anyway.]

That's not how science works. Provide evidence, get results. What the hell is a spirit of winter?

Jack Frost? As in...Jokul Frosti? [Oh gods. Jokul Frosti. Hiccup's face drains of all colour] I always thought you'd look much more...terrifying. [And then Hiccup's eyes widen, because it occurs to him that he really shouldn't have said that] Um. Not that you're not terrifying...

[oh man he's going to die]

[Pepper is on a plane, by her backdrop and, by her expression, Pepper is peeved.]

So do you think that trying to passive-aggressively browbeat people into believing in your version of the world is really going to go over well for you?

For God's sake, if I could just will myself into seeing you I would! Do you think it was thrilling and fun trying to look after two intangible people four hundred years in the past when I couldn't tell whether you were alive or dead unelss you told me?

[Kozmotis is outside too, though he's in the woods on... a nearly finished roof by the looks of it. He sound a bit weary, and like he could probably use a nap sooner or later.]

I'm guessing that in your time magic is a bit harder to come by, from the way you and Toothiana have phrased it. Or at least harder to see.

I'll do what I can but there will likely always be those who won't be able to change the way they see the world.

[ She can't help but smile warmly as she looks over the message. It was a bit... forward, but she knew his intention was good. ]

Thank you, Jack, for trying to help.

It's harder for some people to accept things on faith alone than others, Jack. Unfortunately.

[Kerra reads the text with interest. It's not that she didn't believe in this sort of stuff. But...she just didn't know anything about it. Nothing like this was considered anything more than obscure folklore in the Galaxy, and as a Jedi Kerra'd had precious little time for folklore studies.]

Sorry. I...don't think you don't exist. I see the words on the screen but I don't really know anything about spirits. Where I'm from, the Force is about the only thing out there that's supernatural. And honestly? It's more natural for me than anything else here.

I guess, for me? I just haven't got a clue where to start believing. Can you...do anything to show me you're not just an AI?

So a millennia-old spirit is an expert on genetics, now? [Wanda has no problem believing in magic, or spirits, or Jack Frost himself. She does have a HUGE problem with people claiming there's no such thing as an X-Gene in their world, though.] Can you even hold a book to read? Have you ever even managed to convince a geneticist that you existed for long enough to hold a conversation with them? Who do you think you ARE to make a claim like that?

[Well, Jack found someone who can believe in him. He also struck one heckuva nerve.]
