Hi everyone! My name's Yonah and I'm new here. Is this like writing letters to people, but faster?

[ Then there's a sudden switch to the voice option. Typing on the phone's a little harder for her, at the moment. She's putting what she learned during her introduction to smartphones to use.

Anyone listening will hear a young girl's voice over their communicators. She sounds pretty thrilled over her very first smartphone. Oh, and talking to a bunch of strangers. She really misses her Dad right now. ]

Can everyone hear me? I see so many letters on this network thingy. Some of them are kinda hard to read. Maybe someone can help me read them! We can read it together! Dad used to read me his letters whenever he came home-

[ Suddenly, several seconds of raspy coughing. Though she clasps her hand over her mouth, the muffled coughs are still audible. At least, she makes a quick recovery and starts talking again: ]

...Sorry. I'm okay! Um... I just wanna talk to everyone...

[ She easily switches to video to match up. ]

It's not really a cold. Some other stupid sickness. Don't worry, I'm fine now.

[ She stopped coughing for now!! It's okay!! ]

[maskerading]

[ And so blase about it, too... Well, she'd know more about it than he does, even if it sounded far from pleasant. ]

Okay. Just know if you need anything, there are people here to help.

[bookofyonah]

[ She'd rather talk to people and forget about it. That's not going to help you recover, Yonah... ]

Yeah, I know! I can't believe I'm talking to so many people right now!

[ Dropping it is an option, at least; he's not typically one to be pushy, and it's evident she's been dealing with it for a while, anyway. So— ]

Never had a phone before now?

[bookofyonah]

No... I didn't even know stuff like this existed. I wish I had one back home.

[ Then maybe Dad would actually reply every day to his mail. Although, she's not sure if she wants to go back home. Dad could come to the Quarantine instead and get his own phone. ]

[ Aha. Once more, it's someone who isn't familiar with modern tech. This is starting to become a lot more common than he anticipated, especially for being in a city as advanced as Riverview. ]

You can have it while you're here, at least. I don't know if it'd work if you took it back home, though.

[ Does she even have, like... electricity..... ]
