♪ First Note [TEXT]

[nyakama]

[Hummy was told this... device could communicate with others, like a telephone or a computer screen. The robots had showed her how it worked briefly, but she's...kind of already forgotten a lot of it. The shock of arriving in a new world makes it hard to focus on any one thing for too long, y'know? But! She's been staring at it for a while now and thinks she figured out how to get it to work after testing a variety of different buttons.]

hELKO CAJN ASHYBODY OUT THEERE RWEAD TH IS

[...Look, she is from a time before smart phones and she has no thumbs and she is trying her best, okay? She hasn't figured out how to do audio transcription yet, much less voice or video.]

[hansha]

HELLO YES I CAN READ THIS

[nyakama]

[Whoa! Whooaaa! A message showed up! She really did pull it off, then! She gives herself a pat on the back. Huhu, way to go, Hummy!]

OH IT WORKS!1

I WAM OKAZY THANK Y OU

HOW ARE YUO

[hansha]

[ She definitely did!! If only Yuuji knows who's on the other side, he'll be so proud... All those typos just remind him of how he was when he first saw Fushiguro's network ad, though, panicked and all. ]

YOU CAN TYPE SLOWLY, IT'S OKAY!!

[ There's absolutely no need to type in caps lock but, why sweat the details, right. ]

I'M DOIN GOOD!!! YOU NEED ANY HELP THERE

[text]

[jivitadana]

[Whoa, all caps. But it is readable, at least.]

The video function might be easier? I can show you how?

[Not to deter the other person (?) from using the text features, of course! To each their own!]

[nyakama]

[It's cruise control for cool, Minato. SHE'S THE COOLEST. But really she just doesn't know how to turn it off.]

IT CAN FDO VODEO/?

YSE PLEASDER THIDS IS HARD

[video]

[jivitadana]

[She is! So cute. They will ameliorate this soon, he hopes!]

Hang on.

[Hang tight, Hummy! Minato takes a second to think about how to do this. Hmm...

He goes over to the mirror on the wall though and turns on the video function. That way, whoever they were on the other side could see the reflection. He points out the buttons that switch communication functions.]

Does that help?

[outlining]

[ A child? ]

Yeah, but you might want to turn on a spellchecker.

[nyakama]

[Of a sorts!]

WGHAT S A SPELLC JEKER

[outlining]

[ It is definitely a baby. ]

It's a feature in the communicator. It helps you fix your words, so there won't be any misspellings.

text~

[breathoflove]

[Oh no! This certainly seems like someone who is struggling with the technology. Mitsuri can absolutely relate to that...]

yes lots of people can! its ok if its hard youll get it eventually i believe in you!!!11

[That's a friendly enough greeting, right?]

[nyakama]

[Gosh! What a nice response! It fills Hummy with DETERMINATION!]

THANJ YOU VERY MUCH I WILL TRY MNY HBEWst. I is hard to hit tue right ketter s

[Somewhere in the midst of typing this, she apparently turned the capslock back off. She does not know how.]

text

[dontcallmebro]

Yeah, I can. There might be something wrong with your communicator though.

[Either that or she needs to use the spellchecker.]

(accidental) voice

[nyakama]

[Okay, okay. Minato showed her how to do this. She can make it do video like Hibiki's webcam by pressing this button, right? ...or was it this one? Ummm. Let's just try it and find out!

...

She's waving to you, Cloud, but you can't see it because she's only turned on the audio feed. Her voice is cute, bright and cheery (as you'd perhaps expect of a magical girl mascot.)]

Hello! You might be right, nya. I've never seen something like this before so I don't know what it should do, though.

Text

[thekingsshield]

Sure can! Hello there, pal!

voice

[nyakama]

[Another message! Alright, this time for sure. She's gonna do it. She'll hit the button she intended! Let's see...voice is...this one, like a microphone! Right?]

Hello! Is this the voice feature? Did I do it right?

audio

[changethestars]

[Wow, this person is Not Good at texting. Maybe they're really young? Or really old?]

If you don't wanna text, the other button will let you talk, you know.

audio

[nyakama]

[She is just… a litle creacher. Thatse it. Hummy inspects the buttons. She’s had a few others instruct her by now as well but she still exercises caution to make sure she hits the right one.]

Hm? Hmm? Nyapu! Yes, this is much easier! Hello~

[pinkmin]

[Oh. Oh No. Oh no this kind of completely atrocious typing was actually giving Vianca a powerful feeling of homesickness. Her little sister was just as terrible at this! The feeling made her a little biased in her assumptions of who might be typing.]

Yes. We can read it. You did a good job.

[nyakama]

THAQNK YOU!1! IM NIT USEED TO EVICES LIKE THIS, IT DOES SO MANY T HONGS1 BUT IM TRYING MY BESTT

[She's getting ...a little better? Maybe? It'll be good whens he gets a stylus, though.]
