Okay, so... I guess this is on now? Is that what the... damn it.

[Someone sounds Very Tired right now. She has had a really long week and it looks like it's getting longer as she speaks.] Is there anyone part of the Hargreeves family out there? [She pauses, apparently not quite understanding that she's still recording and people can't respond yet, before she heaves a sigh.] Yeah, I figured.

Is there anyone out there at all, or am I just talking to myself?

[Maybe she's officially snapped. Or maybe she died and this is hell. Either one tracks with the week she's had.]

Because I am talking to a block of plastic and I'm feeling pretty ridiculous right now.

If it's no trouble, that would be helpful. [And she means the 'if it's no trouble'. She doesn't expect people to go out of their way to help her, though it seems like there are a lot of people eager to do just that around here.] I went exploring with Woody, but I still don't really know my way around.

Aw, it's no trouble at all. Breaks up the monotony a little! And the better you know what you're working with, the easier it'll be to get used to the routine.

Well, if you're sure, I'll just... turn on the... video function...

[Tap tap tap 'damn it' BANG tap

Stupid plastic square. She'd been able to switch to video a second ago...]

You know what, why don't you just yell? I'll find you.

[ Kinda reminds him of seeing Gems learn to get a handle on Earth tech. If in this case, Earth tech is a weird clunky tablet thing with a questionable internet connection. ]

Sure. You near any rooms that are big or have something really weird in 'em? I can always try to narrow it down a little before I start yelling!

I... think I passed a greenhouse of some kind a bit ago? There were chickens.

[Vanya is very confused and turned around in this massive rig.]

Sounds like the gardens! Okay, I can be around there pretty soon. I'd say look for the guy in the jumpsuit, but we're all the people in the jumpsuits right now.

[ RIP fashion. Ignore that he wears the same sandals and star t-shirts every day back home regardless. ]

So, I'll be the one with the nametag that says 'Steven Universe'.
