[ She's waving into the camera with a little smile ]

Hey everybody! I just had a great idea this morning and thought maybe everyone would like to help me practice?

Anyways, my family runs a flower shop, so I'm pretty good at making arrangements and stuff like that. And the ships could really use some kind of, I don't know, organic decor, you know?

The plant life here is a bit limited, so there's only so much to work with, but --

[ She turns the camera to face a table in the Three Twins, which now proudly features something like this ]

Here's an example, I just kinda threw this one together now. Let me know if you want one! No charge or anything, I just need the practice. I've been getting super rusty!

Well, we went to a couple of different cities. One of them was called New York, and another one was, uh ... Los? San? Something ...

My city's called San Fransokyo. It's a really big one, but... New York City is bigger.

That one was .... really, really big. I thought my village was big, but -- wow. And the buildings were all soooo tall!

[ She sounds like such a country girl, lmao ]

Luckily I had a driver to take me everywhere.

Drivers are nice. Flying is nicer.

[oh god tadashi PLEASE don't see this thread]

Flying?

So ... a helicopter?

Taught Baymax to fly.

[ ... laughs ]

Why am I not surprised?

Look, it was an important upgrade to make, and he agrees that flying makes him a better healthcare companion!

You're in charge of him, of course he agrees with you.

Iiiit actually took some convincing.

What do you mean? Can't you just push a button and tell it what to do?

[ What are robots what is AI technology ]

--Uh. He's not that kind of robot. He's programmed to think for himself a little bit. I don't think Tadashi expected him to go as far as he has, but... He learned. A lot.

I ... didn't know they could do that.

It's pretty recent technology, and it's nowhere near perfected.

[and then, if you're looking close enough, you can see a little pride.]

Buuuuut my brother's just that awesome.

[and by "looking close enough" i mean if you're looking at him through backwards binoculars a mile away you can make out the font type]

[ Cutie ... ]

So he didn't want to learn it?

He "failed to see how flying made him a better healthcare companion".

[airquotes!]

He changed his tune when flying is all that saved my butt.

[yeah he's gonna leave out the "going into an unstable portal to save someone" thing]

Saved your butt?

[ DID WE NOT HAVE A TALK ABOUT YOU DOING THE DANGEROUS STUFF ]

Didn't I tell you about the whole "superhero" thing? Baymax has never let me get seriously injured, don't worry.

You mentioned it, but ...

[ A small frown ]

I guess that's good.

[a slightly calmer little smile]

Don't worry, I promise we're as safe as we can be. I'm not alone out there, I have a team. What we do is changing the world, in the lab and on the field.

[ Wow, he really has some Feelings about that, huh ...

She'll tease him about it, though ]

You almost sound like you're having fun out there.

Well, I mean... It's for the people.

Is there a lot of crime where you live?

It's a big city. Somebody's always doing something they shouldn't. Besides, we help in emergencies outside of crime, too. Baymax stopped a runaway trolley once.

Trolley? What is that?
