[ well now he has to help, so. he gets up fully to be able to show her. ]
Not a whole lotta technology where you're from, huh? [ he turns the gummiphone on and presses the screen to show her because yes, the gummiphone is a smart phone ] Here. It's pretty intuitive. You just press the little icons and stuff shows up.
Yep. You got it. [ he's not gonna argue that? anyway at least one of those icons leads to the camera app, which is currently front facing because selfies exist ] Oh, I was wondering when you'd hit that one.
It's taking pictures, yeah. You might wanna stop pushing the button.
[ he's trying to think of how to explain photos now, this is horrible ]
It's a pretty normal thing for phones to do where I'm from. It's something with the camera recording the light as it bounces into the lens, and that creates an image to people's eyes.
The button? Oh! This is a button? [She takes her finger off the on-screen button, frowning at it.] It had no particularly different feeling, so I wasn't aware.
So this is a... phone. [Alright.]
And the phone's... camera, was it? It takes... images? And keeps them?
Yeah, it's a touch screen. [ ... what does that even mean to her. ] Anyway, you got the gist of it. The camera stores the pictures in the phone, an' you can look at them pretty much whenever.

[She hums.]
Did you give that device back to Sol?
no subject
The phone? Yeah. He said he wanted to keep it.
[ he seems very okay with that, but, y'know. he seemed very okay with both npcs :/ ]
no subject
[She seems more than a little disappointed.]
You seemed quite familiar with it. Have you held one before?
no subject
[ ... he takes out his gummiphone from his pocket, which is just like a cellphone, but stupider looking. ]
They're not exactly the same, but it was similar enough to give me the idea to look at it.
no subject
...May I see it?
no subject
Sure? Go ahead.

Ever watched your grandma use a smartphone?]
Hmm...
no subject
no. instead, he just drops his chin on his hand to hide a grin and watches ]
Everything okay?
no subject
No.
I have no idea how to use one of these. I will require your assistance.
[at least she's honest??]

[Elympios could probably do it, but........ let's not talk about them.]

[ he sounds a bit confused, and so decides to clarify: ]
Yeah, this thing runs on happy faces.
[ what. ]
no subject
no subject
[ he looks at the phone with a shrug, completely unashamed of that ]
Gummis sorta run on the power of ... good feelings in general, I guess? Or at least that's what I gathered.
no subject
I see!
So if this device is receiving power... then you're feeling good?
no subject
.......Sure.
no subject
[this is said without a trace of irony as she continues to fiddle with the device, poking every single icon on the screen like a toddler.]
no subject
Yep. You got it. [ he's not gonna argue that? anyway at least one of those icons leads to the camera app, which is currently front facing because selfies exist ] Oh, I was wondering when you'd hit that one.
no subject
[Answer: currently taking a lot of Milla selfies.]
Is it storing images of me? How? I assume this is the same function that was investigated in the trial, but it still seems...
[Outlandish, nuts, impossible???]
