Third Scoop: Read the Signs [Video]

[ A multicolored girl can be seen on the feed, as can her female Meowstic sitting on her shoulder. She begins speaking, but not in the usual way. She's using sign language. She's had to take classes to get familiarized with this world's sign language, and luckily Neo learns quickly.

"So when is someone going to develop technology for sign language to text, or even to speech?"

She wonders who will reply with more than a "huh?" ]

[ Of all people...

"Convince, huh?"

Oh, that gives her ideas, and a smirk appears on her face.

"I'll give it a whirl. Your hand signs are too slow and flat, by the way. "

She may just be saying that to mess with him. ]

Flat?

[He looks a little hurt. Signing is one thing he thought he was pretty good at. But he shrugs. Maybe he is; it's not like he practices as much as he should.

Sorry, it's been a while since I last signed.]

[ Good thing Neo is here to be 100% honest. There is a light nod at his reply.

"Yeah, I can tell. You need to work on inflection, otherwise you look like a robot."

Most of the time, Neo uses one hand to sign, because she's lazy and it sometimes throws off people who aren't used to it.

"You obviously don't need to know how to sign, so why?"

Meowstic, seeing that the conversation won't be getting very interesting, hops down to an offscreen location. Neo watches with a sigh. No, baby, don't be like that... ]

[Neo is a trustworthy and kind person.

Oh! How do I do that?

He can't sign with one hand, and his responses are a bit delayed, but he can still interpret what Neo is signing.

For a friend. And I went deaf once and it helped then even though the only person who understood me was blind.

I like your pokemon. Ow, Eyeless, stop trying to eat me.

Jaune winces and makes some pained noises.]

[ "It's all in the hand flicks and how tense or loose your hands are. Some neck movements couldn't hurt."

If he's gonna talk to her, at least have some flavor. And what is hell is going on with his mons?

"Thanks. She's more like a cat than she thinks.

Why are you even signing to your pokemon?" ]

You can do neck movements? That's more complex than I thought.

She's cute. You make a good team.

I don't know, it's not like he can see it.

[ "You should definitely try it. People will think you're a pro.

Then why bother at all?"

Is this guy always so weird? ]
