[Around a table sit four humanoid beings. One is red (AO3), one is yellow-orange (SQWA), one is purple (AA) and one is rainbow-colored (CFAA).]
AO3: Hello everyone! Welcome to this first Friendly Meeting where we can get to know each other, exchange opinions on a variety of subjects, and have fun! I'm AO3 for Archive Of Our Own. Before we get started, let's take a look at who's present. Ad Astra?
AA: Present.
AO3: SquidgeWorld Archive?
SQWA: Present!
AO3: Finally Comic Fanfiction Authors Archive?
CFAA: Present. Why are you doing this? You know we're here!
AO3: It's better to do it. So who wants to discuss what?
[The four humanoid beings are silent. None dares to speak first, then...]
AO3: Uh... I'll start then. What's your favorite color?
CFAA: What a strange question.
AO3: We have to start the conversation with something.
AA: You're not wrong. Purple for me.
CFAA: Rainbow.
SQWA: That's several colors.
CFAA: And?
SQWA: Nothing. Orange for me.
AO3: Red for me. Let's see...
AA: Why not our favorite fandom?
SQWA: We all know it's Star Trek for you.
AA: Ok, but what about yours?
AO3: I don't have just one favorite fandom.
SQWA: Same here.
CFAA: Personally, I hesitate between Batman and the X-Men. Now our favorite animals!
[The meeting is on. The four archives have a lot of fun together. Hours later.]
AO3: It's getting late. I must bring this first Friendly Meeting to a close.
AA: Already? Time goes by far too quickly.
CFAA: Are you going to arrange more, Ao3?
AO3: Yes, if you're all interested.
SQWA: Great. Goodbye.
CFAA: Bye!
AA: See you, Ao3!
[Ao3 is the last to leave.]
