Video - Help?

[The feed clicks on and there's a Japanese girl with a wide smile looking hopefully into the camera.]

Hello! [She gives a little wave.]

My name is Amiko Kurasawa. There is something wrong with this network device I have been given. Might somebody help me?

Hi. What's the problem with it?

Re: video

[stretchy_girl]

It won't display my name.

[She shakes it a little. That usually doesn't helps.

[am_i_a_monster]

Have you checked your settings?

Re: video

[stretchy_girl]

I have, they say my name but nothing shows up. I think there's some kind of glitch.

video

[am_i_a_monster]

Did you get a power that might affect your phone?

The only way I know to fix glitches is to turn it off and back on again. You could try that.

Re: video

[stretchy_girl]

No, not really. I can make my tattoos come alive, that wouldn't affect it would it?

I've already tried turning it on and off.

video

[am_i_a_monster]

I don't think so. What do your tattoos do when they come alive?

Re: video

[stretchy_girl]

Well it depends what they are, mostly they're birds and butterflies, they flap around for a bit and then they sort of fall apart into dust.

video

[am_i_a_monster]

Huh. That doesn't sound very useful. No offense.

Re: video

[stretchy_girl]

None taken! There might be more to it I don't know. I only got these powers a few weeks ago.

video

[am_i_a_monster]

Well, good luck with it. Maybe those birds and butterflies can have more of a purpose than becoming dust.

What's wrong with it?

Re: Video

[stretchy_girl]

Does your name come up when you search for it?

[Hello new face, who might you be.]

Video

[dumbfound]

Yeah, it's uh...

[ He's tapping on his screen, then frowning. She can't see what he's pointing at right now, that clear "JUNSEO JANG"
label across his screen. ]

It should be on the screen there... somewhere. I don't know if it's showing up on yours or not? But it's on the bottom of my screen.

Re: Video

[stretchy_girl]

[Amiko looks at the equivalent area intently, tapping at the screen with furrowed brows.]

...there's nothing there.

[Maybe because she's hacked it to not show up.]

What does yours say?

Video

[dumbfound]

Oh, uh... Jang Junseo? Most people just call me Junseo though.

[ And like a sucker he totally buys it without a second thought. He doesn't usually give things second thoughts though. ]

Re: Video

[stretchy_girl]

Junseo, that's a nice name. What do you do here?

[She commits that to memory while she fishes further.]

Video

[dumbfound]

I work at a hotel carrying people's bags around. It's pretty boring? But finding another job seems hard, so...

Re: Video

[stretchy_girl]

Oh...

[Amiko looks a little disappointed at that for a moment, before her politeness takes over.]

Do your imPort powers help with that at all?

Video

[dumbfound]

Noooo... Uhm, actually it is probably really bad for the job I have? Or any job probably.

[liverletdie]

You know... normally when someone calls tech support, they start out with what's wrong.

Private Video

[stretchy_girl]

[Amiko flips a switch to change the chanel to private, and the moment that's done something in her manner changes entirely.]

I suppose they do, but then i'm not really looking for tech support Tony.

encrypted video

[liverletdie]

Oh no?

[ Now he just sounds a little amused. ]

Then what are you looking for?

Re: encrypted video

[stretchy_girl]

I'm fishing. Seeing who I can catch.

[She has a predatory smile now that really doesn't belong on Amiko's sweet features.]

encrypted video

[liverletdie]

Who's going to be the kind hearted tech genius that will reach out to help the young woman with her tech?

A grandma would have done just as well.

Re: encrypted video

[stretchy_girl]

No. Besides, you and I already have an agreement.

Although if a grandmother's more your thing I can oblige?

encrypted video

[liverletdie]

Oh no, most certainly not.

Hence the...initial contact. I won't deny being shallow sometimes.

Re: encrypted video

[stretchy_girl]

Ahhhh I see, you like this face do you?

She is quite attractive.

encrypted video

[liverletdie]

I like a lot of faces, beautiful.

There hasn't been one of yours that I haven't.

{Video}

[tauraran]

What seems to be the problem? You are using it correctly.

Re: {Video}

[stretchy_girl]

It won't display my name on the wider network. Is this normal?

{Video}

[tauraran]

There are privacy options one can enable. I have never seen fit to do so.

Re: {Video}

[stretchy_girl]

Um, I haven't either? I've barely touched this thing.

[Hello pointy eared stunning annoyance. Why don't you go look down on someone else? Amiko Kurasawa would never think that but somehow she is.]

{Video}

[tauraran]

I suggest you familiarize yourself with it. Communicating with those in your situation is nearly impossible any other way.

{Quickly, at least. Thranduil gives a thin smile.}

Re: {Video}

[stretchy_girl]

I'm not very good with devices, but I will try and shove it up your ass pointy.

{Video}

[tauraran]

Neither am I. Technology - as they call it - has come a long way from what I am accustomed to seeing.

{What was that?}

Re: {Video}

[stretchy_girl]

Has it? The place where you come from must be very primitive.

[Aww is pointy ears hearing things? Amiko certainly didn't say anything.]

{Video}

[tauraran]

In your eyes, it could be considered as such. {But he doesn't consider Arda primitive at all.} The race of Men is less prevalent and so our paths are different.

[onlydoubts]

You seem to be broadcasting alright. What's the issue with it?

Re: video;

[stretchy_girl]

[Well well hello Bodhi, now how can she use this little chat?]

My name won't show up on the screen. Can you help Mister...?

[If no name is there it's because Gemini's hacked it to stop the name being displayed.]

video;

[onlydoubts]

I can try, have a look at it. I'm pretty good at fixing things. [ It's one of his abilities, after all. ]

Bodhi. Bodhi Rook.

Re: video;

[stretchy_girl]

That's very kind of you Bodhi, thank you.

I could pay you perhaps if you have to come all the way here? [And tell me all kinds of interesting things about your friends.]

[onlydoubts]

Oh. Okay, sure. Sure -- I could go over and help, if you'd like.

Where should I meet you?

[stretchy_girl]

That's very kind of you! There's this nice little tea shop in Heropa. Would that be alright, if you're absolutely fine with making the trip?

[onlydoubts]

Sure, I don't mind. I could meet with you there.
