Hello again, it's me- er, Konoha. There's a lot of new people here, so I want to say "I'm the centaur" so you know who I am, but I'm kind of not right now...

[or there's video, honey...]

But I do look the same! From the waist up, I mean. Just, I guess I'm human now... hopefully just for this world, but- A "druid" human!

Anyway, I just wanted to ask, since... Basically everyone else from the temple is usually human or at least has just two legs and it's not like I ever really thought about this kind of thing, and for once we aren't someplace that seems super dangerous, so...

Is there anything only humans can do that I should try before I'm a jinba again?

[The camera's at an unnaturally flattering angle of Mettaton's upper body, something only possible for someone with extendable arms or something ridiculous like that. He sits behind a table of some kind, and if he had a stack of papers and a pristine suit it might be reminiscent of a news anchor. But for anyone who has met this showy robot, Mettaton's expression looks a lot more drained than usual. He quickly remedies this and puts forth a pleasant smile, his voice smooth and clear.]

Hello there, beauties and gentlebeauties! It's Mettaton, here at last to deliver the content you've been craving! ...If we weren't under such grim circumstances. You see. I would love for the purpose of this communication to be to serenade you with my dulcet voice. But I have some news for you that is both meaty and fascinating... Like a Steak In The Shape Of My Face, which is both enticing and satiating. So why not compromise and have both?? [He raises a finger.] I've just recovered from connecting to the Horologium itself in an attempt to gather some information by using my robotic talents... At the pleading of Pidge-darling over here. [Who he gestures to, but she's off camera.] And with her assistance. It wasn't easy! Think of it as a token of my dedication to you, my lovely new viewers... Ohhh yes!!

[The video feed flicks on; Sheryl's on the other end of it, wearing a warm-looking sweater and leggings that she definitely hadn't been wearing last time anyone saw her. The perks of her power are nice sometimes.

She's in the mess hall, in front of the large view-port out to the endless stars beyond, which is very visible over her shoulder. In fact, it seems to be the focus here.]

So, I've talked to a few people about this already, but... the stars aren't moving, which means the ship's staying still.

For those of you who didn't grow up in space, that's weird. They wouldn't spend energy and fuel stopping a ship like this in the middle of nowhere for no reason.

Any ideas why? I'm taking suggestions.
