[ He turns to see the tallest person he's ever seen in his entire life. ]

Uh- huh? Hey?

[ What's up? ]

[polliwog]

[ HE'S... a little tall. a bit hulking. but his body language is casual and nonthreatening, at least. ]

I was wondering if you've mastered these devices yet?

[ he taps on his wrist to indicate the IRIS. ]

[perfectdistance]

Oh.

Not even a little. This stuff's got so much goin' on with it. My first time dealing with anything like it.

[polliwog]

Oh, me as well! My friend understood this sort of technology better, I think... I ought to have asked him.

[ link where are you. ]

Shall we try to figure it out together?

[perfectdistance]

Sure, ... where should we start?

[ pspsps Sage, explain high tech devices. ]

They seem to open up doors.

[polliwog]

[ PSPSPS ]

Indeed! And much more, apparently—I was shown how to control that fantastical room with them earlier. [ simulations... ] Have you tried taking a picture?

[perfectdistance]

A picture? Like a painting? This thing can do that?

[polliwog]

Supposedly so! I know it seems hard to believe, but there was a device back home that did something very similar.

[ except there was only one of them and now all of them have The Power. the IRIS appears around his wrist with a thought. ]

Why don't you give it a try with yours?

[perfectdistance]

Sure.

[wait.]

How does it work?

[did nero read.... anything......]

[polliwog]

[ NERO DID YOU READ ANYTHING it's okay he is an enthusiastic teacher ]

Oh! I can try first, to demonstrate.

[ he'll frame nero with his fingers, then. ]

Cheese!

[ try to smile, buddy ]

[perfectdistance]

[ n...no..... if it's really important somebody'll tell him...? He hopes?

Here, you do get a smile out of him though! Feeling a little awkward, but that's just how it goes. ]

Like this?

[polliwog]

[ oh buddy

anyway IT'S A CUTE ICON AND A CUTE SMILE, and sidon kind of holds the pose for a second too long because he also doesn't totally know what he's doing? but after a moment, he checks the photo reel, and immediately lights up. ]

Yes! You did it! [ well. kind of. ] Here, take a look!

[ he very excitedly shows nero a photo of him!!! ]

[perfectdistance]

[ Looks at his own picture and thinks about how crazy that is. ]

It really took a picture that quickly?

[ Somewhat worrying, actually. Why is it that fast? ]

[polliwog]

[ technology is wild ]

There was a device that worked this way back home as well, but it was very rare... I do not think it is harmful!

[ no soul-capturing or whatnot. ]

[perfectdistance]

Wait- how sure are you about that?

[ ARE YOU SURE? ]
