I know how you feel... can we get a crash course on how this app works?

From:

dedikated

Know how it works. Just hate using it.

( And, a moment later, when she remembers she's trying to be nice: )

You need a hand with it?

From:

sanator

Why do you hate it? It seems like a nice idea.

I probably need a hand with everything to do with these devices.

From:

dedikated

Not good at writing descriptions and worse at checking my phone.

( Which is true. These messages are coming quickly for her - probably with a couple of hours delay between them - but that's because this city is still new and she has relatively little to do. )

Thought a place like this would have offered a guide on them. Unless they want you to try and make friends this way.

( Get people to teach you, become close? She could see them trying. )

From:

sanator

Oh okay I understand that part. I have mine set to super loud. And it vibrates! Its like my decoder ring, its pretty cool.

[Thom was actually responding pretty fast, mostly because he was a giant loser with relatively few things to do in his day-to-day here.]

I thought that was the whole point? To make friends with the app? Or cuddle partners.

From:

dedikated

Decoder ring?

( She's curious. And there was some logic to her earlier comment, but wherever it was going seems like a pointless endeavour, too much explanation. She's more interested in what he's mentioned. )

From:

sanator

Yeah my League decoder ring... it vibrates when there's a league emergency! [In which Thom clarifies nothing because apparently he's just that kind of guy.]

From:

dedikated

League of what? Can't imagine there's that much urgent in football. Unless it's the transfer window.

( What, she likes watching sports nearly as much as she likes doing them. )

From:

sanator

League of Heroes!
And I'm more of a basketball guy... but I don't need a ring for that.

From:

dedikated

Never had the chance to watch much basketball.

( It's obscurely broadcast and there's not that many pubs that show it. )

Wow that's a shame, its a cool sport. I was on my varsity team... until they kicked me off. [Thom had been kicked out of a lot of things recently.]

From:

dedikated

Too good for them?

( Look she's trying to find a good spin on what you're saying it's something. )

From:

sanator

Too gay for them. [Mic drop.]

From:

dedikated

( If only you could see the expression on her face, dude. )

That's bullshit. Didn't know we played sports with our genitals.

From:

sanator

Apparently we superhero with them too, it was enough to get me kicked out of the League. [Not that he's a bitter betty or anything, he was just recently learning that in most societies that aren't his own, it wasn't an okay thing to have happened.]

From:

dedikated

( She can honestly say, that for all the shit The Agency have pulled - the ridiculous hours, the sadistic punishments, the agenda that erred closer to genocide than justice - they've never pried into the sex lives of any of its members.

(And for that? She's glad. Not just for herself, but for Diana and Alicia and everything they've built. For their entire group, all of them anything but straight.) )

Shit. Better not be any of that here.

( She wants to say there won't be, but she's not optimistic enough. )

I hope there isn't... so far though, everyone seems nice.
Its like most worlds have the exact opposite. [And Thom was hopeful. After all, he'd been shown kindness here that he'd never anticipated back home, the kinds of things that had become incredibly unfamiliar to him in recent weeks back in his own world.]

From:

dedikated

Wasn't a problem back home. They just wanted people capable of working.

( And she never paid enough attention to know for sure what things were like outside of her bubble of work and friends. )

From:

sanator

What do you mean? [Because that was quite a strange statement to be made as a reason to ignore homophobia.]

From:

dedikated

Job wasn't asking who we sleep with.

( One day, maybe, she'll learn to speak in a way that's clear. Maybe. )

From:

sanator

Oh, right... I mean I don't think a lot of jobs ask that.
I work as a bus boy and they never asked that at the interview.

[Thom is ridiculously gullible and takes too much at face value, after all.]
