Greetings, people of Aldrip.

I am a new arrival to this place. My name is Rafal. I am a dragon from another world. As familiar as I am with the mechanics of multiple worlds and travel between then, I am afraid the technology gap here is rather large. I would like to request the aid of a master, someone who is proficient in it and is willing to teach me.

Of course, this does not need to be for free. You are welcome to request a boon or a favor. I lack money at this juncture but I will see to it soon enough. I am no longer in the business of resurrecting the dead and I do not kill for others . . . but I am open-minded in other requests.

Thank you.

— Ah, yes, a picture of my true form since that seems to be a sticking point among skeptics.

[nilhilistic]

[opheliac]

aw come on, im sad. i could use a distraction.

[nilhilistic]

That is not my concern.

Dare I ask what you're sad about?

[starguy]

dude that's so cool that you're a dragon
i'm not like suuuper "proficient" at the tech here but it's pretty easy to get once you get the hang of it

what're you looking to learn, anyhow?

[nilhilistic]

Is it?

[ dragons are feared and revered. "cool" is a relatively new sentiment for rafal. ]

The basics and then possibly more complex concepts. I'm afraid I know very little.

[starguy]

totally!! dragons are cool and rare

i can probably teach you, it's not really that different from the kind of tech i'm used to
plus once you figure out text comms you're like halfway there!

[nilhilistic]

I suppose that is true.

I welcome any expertise.

Hey
I'm Peter Parker
We have a STEM club here (Science Technology Engineering Mathematics)
We can help you
What kind of stuff do you wanna know about? How to use it or how it works?

[spidermenaces]

Wait did you say dragon

[nilhilistic]

Yes. I clearly said the word dragon.

Why is there a club for STEM?

[spidermenaces]

So we can all work together on projects and have fun!

[luneminary]

You're a dragon? So you can breathe fire and stuff?

I'm not a master, but I know a thing or two about using a phone!

I can teach you how to make faces, like this: (ﾉ◕ヮ◕)ﾉ*:･ﾟ✧

[nilhilistic]

Yes I can breathe fire "and stuff".

What value do these faces have?

[luneminary]

That sounds useful! You don't have to worry about the cold in winter! (o^▽^o)

It's a way to show what your expression look like in text. Like the one I used above: it's a happy face!

(´｡• ᵕ •｡`) <---- And this is a cute shy-looking face

[nilhilistic]

And that's all?

[baldrshand]

You are truly capable of such a thing?

[nilhilistic]

The world I now live in is not my own. It is a mirror to my old world.

With a great amount of power, yes. I am capable of it.

[baldrshand]

...You must have been plagued by supplicants asking for you to bring back their loved ones.

I'd be glad to help! What exactly do you need help with?

[Or you're going to go play video games.]

I definitely missed that you were a dragon somehow. Sorry.

[nilhilistic]

How technology works, why it behaves the way it does.

And it is no matter. I realize without seeing, it is hard to believe.

[theskyaccepts]

It's still cool though

[Way cooler than the last dragon he had to deal with.]

But I think I do that. Even if that topic's kinda broad.

Is there something more specific?

[entreats]

[ Well, the dragon thing is absolutely unsurprising to Ange in every single way, so she'll be one of the people to not even comment on that...

Instead she replies to speak up with: ]

What part of the technology are you interested in? [ And rather than assuming something practical, apparently the first thing the girl opts to ask is: ] Do you want to play the games?

[ Look, those are the newest and most exciting thing to Ange, alright! Even if the girl is saying all of this with a very flat, deadpan tone, not really showing much of said excitement. ]

[nilhilistic]

[ what is this fascination with games? the mind boggles. ]

What games?

[entreats]

I don't know, these things apparently have all sorts of games on them.

[ It does make it sound like the concept is still relatively new to Ange too. But she likes to think she probably knows more than Rafal does, considering he has to even ask. ]

I think Tetris is pretty fun.
