This thing sure is, uh, fancy.
[ Magnus sticks a finger out at the phone's screen, tapping the glass and knocking the image out of focus for just a second. However, he quickly realizes he’s made a mistake and fixes the camera focus accordingly. ]
Sorry, I’m just not used to this kinda stuff. I think my fingers are too big for this thing... But I’ll figure it out quick! Anyway, hi, I’m Magnus, and… Well, I guess I’d be lying if I said I was completely happy to be here — [ His face looks as if he’s guilty to be saying this, but it almost instantly lights back up. ] — But I’ll make the most of it while I’m here! Y’know, I’m always happy to make new friends. Just let me know if you need, uh, a chair, or a bed, or a bodyguard or something!
[ He reaches forward to turn off the camera, but pauses, quizzical. He retracts his hand. ]
You should also let me know if you have a dog that I might be able to pet. …I hope dogs exist here.
[ The camera shuts down with the press of a button. ]

[As genuine as his question was, he realizes he's being rude and remedies it.]
Also, nice to meet you, um—?

[He's so creative.]
It's not so bad, honestly. Once you get used to the whole... Being dragged into another world without warning thing.
[He doesn't answer the question right away, almost as if he has no intention of doing so before shrugging a shoulder.]
I've never looked, but I've heard there's one here. Your- phone, or communicator can probably show you, if you know how to use it.
[Ed doesn't have a phone, and he still bristles at the idea that other people here call their devices phones. That's not what a phone was where he was from. Since he didn't have any modern tech, he'd arrived here from Attollo with his device from that world in tact, Orientation had made sure to get it hooked up to the proper network and functioning like everyone else's.]
Or- you could ask around.

Yeah, I guess I will. Ask around. With my uh, phone. [The word "phone" is weird to him, too.] Thanks!
no subject
No problem. Sorry I can't be more help, animal shelters are- not really my thing.
[He's going to stay as far away from that as possible, and hope Al never sniffs the damn thing out while he's not looking.]
