[ He turns VIDEO on and... oh... that is like a tiny mirror. Okay. There's some breathing and the feed catches the ceiling. ]

[ What does this button do? ]

[ TEXT. It turns into the magical paper the young Dave used. ]

[ OKAY. What if he toggled between -- oh that works. He's going to toggle between the two options really fast now. ]

[ click click click click click click click click click click click click click click click ]

Outdated?
So you're far into the future?
That's remarkable.
What's the future like?

[fracturedsoul]

Futuristic, full of technology that would make you shit your pants, and very, very wet.

It's pretty dull, really.

[kingdomsgambit]

Is it? Huh.
I would assume the future was a lot more interesting with carriages that aren't pulled by horses and -- oh, perhaps messaging devices that connect to your brain in a sort of pod.
It would be a lot cleaner and the people would be less violent.
I suppose that was expecting too much.

[fracturedsoul]

I'm sure it would be more interesting from the point of view of someone who hadn't grown up surrounded by all of that. As it is, it's no more special to me than your time period is to you.

Furthermore, considering the fact that we come not only from differing time periods but also alternate universes altogether, the state of my world in the twenty-fifth century may have no bearing on what yours will be like when it reaches that era.

We had brain-connecting messaging devices centuries ago, though. So there's that.

[kingdomsgambit]

That's a fair point.
Well, thank you, Dirk.
You've been a very helpful young man.
