10th Fix

[Phone: filtered from NPCs:]

Hey, guys! Just wanted to let ya'll know that the forge in my yard has been ready to go. It ain't much, but it does the trick. Not too bad for a guy who's never even seen one outside of a Renaissance Fair if I do say so myself! Thing is, I've never built anythin' like swords or whatever before. Computers and electronics are more my thing. So's there anyone out there who does? I collected some scrap metal from cars and such around here to use. Be glad we're in the 50s, when cars were actually still made outta metal. We can start meltin' 'em down and stuff, but I dunno what to make the hilts or whatever out of, or... well, anythin' else about aswords. I hate to say it, but I'm a little stumped on where to go from here.


[Action:
Quinn's been in a great mood ever since he got the courage to open up his latest regain. It's one of his favorite guilty pleasures, mostly because through his technomancy, iPads are fun to talk to. He can be found walking around town with it, sitting with it at the diner, or in the high school faculty break room... however, he doesn't even need to touch it to have it do anything. Apps and images zoom by without him needing to move a muscle, thanks to his ability. He looks positively tickled to have this thing back. And he's so absorbed in it, he might not hear you talking to him at first, or he might walk right into you. It's a good thing he's so tall, so you can see him coming...]


Faculty break room

[Hello I am from the 80's and thus have never seen an iPad before]

Forgive me if I'm interrupting anything, but what is that?

[Oooh he forgot about all the new-- wait, Quinn, someone's talking to you.]

Hey, Lion. It's an iPad. Just got it sent back from home. Not exactly top of my list of things I'd like back, but it's still pretty fun.

An iPad, is it...

[Leans over a little to look at it.] I've never seen anything like it before. It looks quite interesting.

Yep! It's a computer. To be honest, I don't have a whole lotta use for it, but it's fun. Especially here in Mayfielld I can't do much with it. Can't get any new apps or anythin' for it here. Glad I loaded it up before I got whisked away!

A computer? It's so small...

Well, you must be happy to have it, then.

[identity profile] techno-mancer.livejournal.com 2011-02-26 03:44 am (UTC)(link)
Yeah, and they're makin' 'em smaller 'n' smaller every day. Check it out, I had a coupla photos on here. These are my cousins, Jaris and Eris.

[A picture appears, showing a man and a woman about Quinn's age, who are obviously siblings. The guy is grinning like a maniac and the girl looks exasperated with him.]

Hey, did ya get anything cool back lately?

[identity profile] beamiracle.livejournal.com 2011-02-26 03:36 pm (UTC)(link)
Really...it looks like technology can really come a long way. [Lion smiles at the photo.] To think you can put photos on here as well...

Nothing much, other than a badminton racket.

Ya can do just about anythin' with this. Plays videos, games, books, and about a million other little things.

Aw, that's it? And just one? Ya think they'd at least give ya the set.

[identity profile] beamiracle.livejournal.com 2011-02-27 03:47 pm (UTC)(link)
All of that? That's really something.

A set would have been nice, yes...but at least I got something after everything the town put us through.

Gettin' another racket and a net shouldn't be too hard to get here though. Then you'll be all ready for spring!

[identity profile] beamiracle.livejournal.com 2011-02-28 02:06 pm (UTC)(link)
Yes, I'm sure there's plenty of equipment here. And luckily you can play badminton inside.

Oh that's right, there's like a rec center or somethin'. Sweet deal. [This is Quinn; what is exercise.]

[identity profile] beamiracle.livejournal.com 2011-03-01 04:56 pm (UTC)(link)
Yes, so I'm hoping I can play there as often as I can.
