[Daqiang stilled at that comment and his eyes darted to her.

Fun?

He... supposed some of it was... positive. Was that what fun was? He knew happiness from her. But hers was always so much more intense than what he'd been feeling. It was more pleasant than unpleasant, but was that enough for it to be considered fun? Didn't fun require much more intense happiness? The kind that he could not feel on his own?

His eyes dropped and he shifted his position to hold the shellphone up for her to see what he was doing.]


This is how you find individuals to send them mail. This is where you press to send them a letter - called 'text' - or use the shellphone in the way of a tianji mirror - it is called 'video'. You can also use it like a speaking stone, but without needing a paired set. That is called 'audio'.

[Once he selected the text function, he let her watch while he typed in a few characters to start the message and show her how to use the keyboard to find everything in the menu. Then he switched to the speech-to-text function and started narrating the rest of his message to Cid. When he was finished, he showed her were to press to send it and how to check that it had actually been sent. He would explain, as well, that there was no specific need to address the message or sign it, as it appended their username to indicate who had done so.]

This venerable one finds the speech-to-text function the easiest to use when text is most appropriate, and he uses it the most regularly when responding in text while alone.

[And no one can hear him talking.]

But the video is the easiest of all of them. You can even respond to written messages without having to stop the video to do so. It simply continues showing you to the one you are responding to while showing you their text.
