[Ada like to think after a week of being here she would have figured out how to finally use the device. Sort of. She had figured out how to use video, but since she never used it hasn't fully sunk in that she should maybe move it a bit further back. She'll probably figure that out later or at least while she adjusts it now and again.]

Good morning... I'm not 100% confident that I am holding it correctly, but I am figuring it out as I go. [She smiles slightly.] A device like this is not what I was used to before I arrived. [A paused, she had a reason for this. She moved to bow slightly. She was being polite.]

But I figured I should at least introduce myself to everyone here. My name is Ada Vessalius and it is a pleasure to meet you. [She soon stood up straight, hands still firmly holding the device.]

I arrived around a week ago and I am still getting my bearings, but I am asking for something like a tour guide more than anything. To show me around and explain things that I might not fully understand. [She glanced away for a moment.]

I've already explored a bit, but there are certain things that I don't know which is why I am asking. I want to understand this place much more. [She also may of started her occult collection here but that is a story she isn't going to be open about any time soon.]

I will reward you for you kindness if you are to help. Thank you for listening.

We had phones, but not phones you could bring around and do the whole... video and text thing. So it's a learning experience.

[A fun learning experience anyway.]

I've never used one before, but they seem to have one in the room I am currently staying at. I still don't know how it works.

[ubiquitously]

Oh, good. There's hope for you.

I do know about 'modern' technology, though. I can assist you with any questions in regards to that aspect.

[occultfan]

Um well... I'm not sure where to actually start with it really. I guess the basics might, help but I don't know.

[ubiquitously]

Well, at the absolute basics... What do you know about electricity? I know that might sound like a silly question, but it changes a lot. Do you have electric lights? Or batteries? Wireless technology?

[occultfan]

I don't think I really know anything about it.

[ubiquitously]

... Well then. There's our starting point.

Why don't I show you around and point things out to you? Technology is generally harmless, but you'll be able to live more conveniently if you understand it.

[occultfan]

I would appreciate that very much, thank you.

[ubiquitously]

Happy to help. Let me know when you're free next, and I'll come meet up with you. Don't microwave rocks in the meantime, okay? Or eat lightbulbs.

[Hana has had a lasting impact on him.]

[occultfan]

I promise I am not planning on doing either of those things.

Mostly because why would you microwave rocks or eat something like a lightbulb unless it's actual food.

[ubiquitously]

Oh good. There's hope for you yet.

You're bars above some other people here. [HANA.]

[occultfan]

So there are people who do that with rocks and lightbulbs then?

[ubiquitously]

Unfortunately, yes. One person.

She doesn't know much about technology, but she should really be more cautious... Anyway. Just don't do anything crazy in the meantime.

[occultfan]

I will not do anything that crazy. I also hope that your friend doesn't try anything else dangerous.

[ubiquitously]

M-Me too...

Well then! My apologies for keeping you on the phone. Let's plan for that tour soon. I think you'll enjoy technology once you're used to it.

[occultfan]

I will look forward to it.

Good day, sir.
