Video; pretend it wasn't posted in the dead of night

[terminalemulation]

[This file registers as a regular video, but upon activation it displays significantly differently than a normal video - instead of showing a person in a specific place, it projects a translucent, 2D image of a girl on the COMP glasses' display. In the corner of the HUD, you might notice a new little button has appeared:

Even if you were to stop watching this video right now, the button would persist. It's a new, permanent feature of the COMP: it appears on the screen of the watch, as well.]

 

Let's see... good, I have all the settings done correctly this time. My word, this system works differently than anything else I've ever seen.

[Instead of an actual voice, her words appear inside of a text box beside her.]

Greetings, Guests of Hinoto-Ri! My name is *Hyun-ae - don't pronounce the star, it's simply to show my status as an AI. I was recently installed as a new, 25/7 administrator of the network: simply put, I'm here to monitor things and make sure it all keeps running smoothly.
 

You might notice a new addition to the COMP - [At this point, she gestures to the new button.] I've created that as a means to facilitate communication. If you have any questions for me, or really need any help at all... well, here's an example. Let's say you're lost and need a specific map? I can find it for you in an instant! Just ask! Additionally, if I need to speak to you, I'll do it through that button. It'll flash blue when I'm trying to get your attention, so please don't ignore it for too long.

...Well. I believe that's everything I can think of to say.

Wow, this seems pretty handy! Thanks. Nice to meet you, *Hyun-ae.

[And he didn't try to pronounce the star! Way to pay attention, kid.]

But...you said that you're an AI, right? What's that?

_{[Aww, another person not using video. *Hyun-ae's gaze is traceable to a spot somewhere within Sora's nest of crazy hair, rather than his actual eyes.]}

"AI" is an abbreviation for "Artificial Intelligence" - it means that I was created, rather than born, and that I live in machines instead of an organic body. Simple as that.

sorry this is so late!

[It doesn't matter how long you stare at that hair, *Hyun-ae. It's not actually possible for figure out how it works.]

So, you live inside the COMP network or something? That's neat!

[*Hyun-ae must be like Tron, or at least similar. If he thought about it that way, everything made sense.]

By the way, I'm Sora. You said that we could use this whenever we needed to ask for help, right?
