[Not to Penny, at least.]

That's okay! At least now you know for sure how it works, right?

[charcoalfeather]

Uh... Yeah!

[Thank goodness. That saves her a good amount of embarrassment.]

The thing is, I never used a phone before, so I've been trying to learn how.

[With... Success?]

[in4apounding]

[With success!]

Did your world not have things like scroll- like phones, then?

[charcoalfeather]

No, not at all. In fact, my world doesn't have a lot of things this world does.

[Boy does she sound a little embarrassed, but there's the distinct impression she's smiling all the same.]

I only knew what a phone was a week ago.

[in4apounding]

That must be a big adjustment!

[For Penny the tech has been both a downgrade and an upgrade, but there hasn't been much besides the Pokémon that she's had to learn completely wholesale.]

It seems like you're picking things up very quickly, then!

[charcoalfeather]

[Yeah... you never know how lucky you are to have a phone before you've seen one for the first time.]

Yes! I guess I'm a fast learner after all.

[....Wait, this was completely out of left field for her. Oh god she doesn't even know who she's talking too.]

Wait...! My name is, umm... it's Rakka! [smooth, kid.] I probably should have started with that.

[in4apounding]

Salutations, Rakka! My name is Penny, it's a pleasure to meet you!

[Penny you already sort of said that...]

[charcoalfeather]

[Penny please...]

...It's nice to meet you, Penny. I'm... sorry for suddenly calling you like this.

[in4apounding]

No, it's okay! I love getting to talk to new people! Call me whenever you want, really!

[charcoalfeather]

Uh, s-sure! I'll be sure to remember that! Now that I'm getting use to the phone, it should be on purpose next time...
