--there we go!

( the feed opens up to just his face, a satisfied grin plastered across his mouth now that he sees that he did, in fact, get this thing to work. it doesn't quite reach his eyes, though; they're a bit red, definitely swollen. don't judge him. )

Hi! My name’s Jon Kent. I’m looking for my mom and dad. My dad’s name is Clark, and my mom is Lois. My dad looks a lot like me, just bigger? My mom has brown hair. I’m sure they’re fine, but I haven’t been able to find them yet.

( the grin shifts into something a bit more sheepish, free hand raising to adjust the big, bulky glasses sitting on his nose. )

And uh. . how do I know which room’s mine? Why are there ogres outside--?

It's good if time is an issue for ya or if you don't want your parents to worry. [Not so good is the fact that this kid is all alone for now.]

Do you have someone who can help you out while you're here?

( if his dad doesn't realize that he's missing, how is he supposed to break the time and space continuum to come find him. really, it's a little more inconvenient this way. )

I'm okay, I can handle myself. ( it's not quite a yes or a no because he's--not quite sure. he has people he's familiar with, but that aren't familiar with him. and then there's damian, who's just a jerk. but jon's pretty sure he'll be fine regardless. )

That doesn't mean you have to. Tell me where you are and I'll come show you around.

I’m uh, right outside of the castle? I thought I’d go explore, so.

( he twists the camera to face behind him, showing the door leading back into it. obviously, he hadn’t gotten very far in his exploration yet. but considering the ogres right past the barrier, maybe it’s for the better? )

[Someone's gotta find this kid adult supervision if he does that kind of thing often.]

Right. Try not to get too close to the ogres.

[It's takes Kay a couple minutes to get down there, considering that he was on the eighth floor.]

Hey kiddo. Let's get back inside. You can look around out here in a couple days.

( it's not as if he can't take down quite a few ogres on his own, but that's probably beside the point, isn't it. also: definitely not relevant. at the very least, he doesn't go anywhere when he knows that someone's coming down to meet him, so. jon waits for him to show up, leaning back against the building close to the door. he steps away from it pretty fast when kay tells him they have to go back inside though, and starts moving towards him. )

Okay, I got it. ( even if he wants to look around outside, he's not going to directly disobey someone who tells him otherwise. manners and all. )
