[The first thing visible on the screen is eyesockets. Big, round, empty eyesockets, with the back of the skull just visible if anyone's paying attention.]
Wowie! This is even cooler than my phone at home! Look at all the buttons! And now everyone can see and hear me, regardless of where they are? Nyeh-heh-heh!
[Finally, the person on the screen pulls their arm away from their face and holds it up, tilted down slightly at a classic selfie angle.
Word has probably spread about living skeletons on the ship, and now it appears the tall one is addressing everyone.]
A-HEM!
[He doesn't have a throat to clear; he just literally said the word "ahem" really loud.]
Attention, monsters and humans and... otherwise! I, the great Papyrus, was selected to act as your new Morale Officer, and as such, I have some questions for you. Do not be intimidated! There are no wrong answers, just a really cool guy listening to everything you have to say!
[He ticks the questions off on his bony fingers.]
Firstly! If we haven't yet met, what is your name?
Secondly! Are you happy here on the ship?
Thirdly! If not, what is troubling you, and do you need a hug?
And lastly, if you said yes to the second part, what is your location. I may need a few minutes, as this place can get a little confusing, but just hang in there! I believe in you!
[A short pause as he tries to think of what else to say. This is his big debut, he should make himself seem as cool as possible so he can attract a lot of friends! Maybe he can just use some awesome radio slang and end it here? Yes, yes, of course, that's totally what cool guys do!]
This has been a very important message from the great Papyrus! Roger and out. No, wait--!
[Thinking he can erase the message and do it over, he jabs a button and turns it off.]

[Gregor's voice is warm and he looks almost fond.]
This is very kind of you to do. I suppose I'm about as happy here as anybody kidnapped could be, but that's neither here nor there. If you find anyone who has an interpersonal problem on the ship, please feel free to refer them to me, as Arbitration Officer. [His smile stretches, just a little, pulling from 'barely visible' to 'a tangible facial expression.'] I'd like very much to work with you, I think.

[Papyrus can't help but grin all the time, but it's extra sincere now that he's talking to someone he considers a friend.]
I had no idea this ship took its interpersonal issues so seriously! What a well-organized system; it's truly one of the best things about being here!
