 Soooooo!

[Steven's face pops up on camera, cheerful as always. It's hard to tell where he is, as his face takes up most of the screen, but wherever he is he certainly seems excited. Clearly Steven has something very important that he'd like to say!]

Does anyone wanna start a band?

I like the way you think! [Steven doesn't seem to bothered at all by the table slamming. He feels those intense emotions about music, man. He feels them in his soul.]

How would you like to make those dreams come true?

[kingofthetvworld]

[Teddie can only squeeze his cheeks together in his excitement, like any proper future star would.]

T-That's all I've ever asked for!

[After all, it's only been his lifelong dream to become a famous musician. ...That started today.]

Sign me up! NO WAIT! Sign me up four times.

[Four whole times. He's serious.]

[cookiecats]

I dunno...can you play four different instruments? There still needs to be space for everyone else, you know!

But I'm sure we can work something out. Band members gotta stick together!

[Steven is equally serious.]

[kingofthetvworld]

Oh, I betcha I probearly could. I just so happen to be a bear of many talents.

[One of those talents is making stuff up.]

But I will do what I can for the band! No one say I'm not a team player. Erm...players.

[Because apparently he's counting himself as four people now.]

[cookiecats]

Heh, you're pretty nice for a bear. [Not that bears are bad! Just normally, yanno, not very conversational.

Shhh. Steven is happy to indulge him.]

Great! We're gonna have a full band in no time!

[kingofthetvworld]

[Pretty nice for a bear? What's that supposed to mean?]

H-How many bears have you met?

[This is important. For science. You can't just say something like that without having met any bears to compare him to, clearly. Where are these other bears? The world needs to know.]

'Cause if you got connections, we could have one of the fuzziest bands in town! Or even...the world.

[cookiecats]

...just you, I guess!

In fact, I don't think I've ever seen a bear.

[...Steven squints.]

How can I know for sure that you're a bear? And not just...something that isn't a bear?

[kingofthetvworld]

[OFFENDED. But before Teddie can act on his rage, it dawns on him that he doesn't exactly have his only piece of evidence. ...And it wasn't even that good to begin with. He only has one shot at this, his reputation as a bear depends on it.]

...My name is Teddie.

[Flawless.]
