We have flying cars and digital billboards, if that's what you're worried about. I knew what a cellphone was before I got here. [what the fuck is nimona's canon: an essay]
He's from an era of pirates, they pretty much vanished hundreds of years ago!! He tried to make fun of the fact where I'm from we have so many landlocked places and he doesn't even have a fully completed world map!! They're still completing it!!
[ she likes ace. ]
Man. We're going to need a technology 101, I don't think Temenos knows what a phone is and he tried to ask me about magic so I know he's not from where I'm from. [ ....... ] Do you know what magic is? Outside of video games?
Maybe we can hold a like, seminar on tech? Me and you teach the masses how to use a phone, because honestly, half of the people here are like bwuhhhh what's an app. [as for the rest of that:] And yeah. I do. It's not a huge thing where I'm from, but I know magic.
[dreamwidth what the fuck is your notif system i am getting these all out of order help me]
[ denise mashing the "fuck the roleplayers" button ]
Oh, what. I feel so cheated. How come I don't get tech and magic.
[ DAMMIT MODERN SOCIETY. ]
... they really are though. Vane's picking up texting and emojis pretty well even if he won't turn off caps. [ not-so-old man yells at cloud. ] But we have phones, so we're going to have to use them, I'll bet.

[she starts, and then stops. and then starts again like she didn't say anything.]
Anyway, yeah, I bet we will. I don't know for what, other than the tokens stuff. Maybe we'll have to develop a secret code and destroy an oppressive regime or something.
[ ..... hmm. well, when nimona dodges the topic, she just files that one away for the moment. tama opening her mental files and filing "balli" under "possible trauma". ]
We could use binary. Or morse, I guess. But people will probably be able to figure that out... Hexadecimal?
We kinda covered one talking about your world actually, although -- uhh. To make sure, could you tell me a bit more about it? Something you like or a silly fact or something will probably count.
Uhh. [she thinks about it.] It's called the Kingdom, and everybody lives inside the walled up part, but nobody except for me knows there's a whole world out there past the walls because they've got their heads up their #@^%@$.
I mean, there's an outside. It's just in a big... y'know, walled area. [she throws her arms out helpfully.] And then there's forests and stuff outside of the wall, but nobody goes there because they think there's monsters out there.
