[VIDEO] 404: Technology Know-How Not Found
[The feed switches on to the sight of one (1) agitated lineface and her uncle, seemingly poring over Jack's COMP. Agatha looks a mite bit more irritated than usual, and Jack... looks like he's lost in concentration.]
...There is no shame in asking for help - ah, especially since the COMP already appears to be on. How did you even manage that, Uncle?
I... ... I don't know, actually. All I did was touch a few things over here... [Jack points, dejectedly, off to one side of the screen.]
... [Siiiigh.] I - Seriously?
[She shakes her head and then nods at the 'camera' as it were.]
... At any rate, er, hello network. I am Agatha Sheridan, this is my uncle Jack.
[Jack waves a bit, perhaps a little over-eagerly.] Uh... hi. This is kind of awkward.
Perhaps you have already met us. We have a request. Uncle has been here for several months already and still cannot operate the COMP properly. [She glances over to Jack, who looks back at her with a lopsided smile and a soft 'eheheh...'.] ... I'm not really much of a teacher, so if someone could explain how this thing works to him? I'd appreciate it. Thanks.
[Quietly, sounding more like a whining child than a grown man, Jack adds:]
This is so complicated, I don't see why they can't just give us cell phones...

Here is a four-year-old with no respect for the elderly.

[SOB, Desco. Please to be not harassing your friend's uncle.]
no subject
[Only family is allowed to get grumpy at him. ... And yes she did just, in a backhanded way, say that she thinks Jack isn't really that dumb.]
no subject
"...Aggie. You work the COMP by thinking about it."
no subject
...
...]
That...thank you, Desco. A lot of things are very clear to me now.
[There is a brilliant flash of illumination in her mind as it sinks in that actually-]
So it's...psychic technology, then. Not - well, no wonder-!
no subject
Slight pause as she glares at Jack.
"Mister Uncle! For giving Desco's midboss friend unnecessary stress, she sentences you to buy both of us pie! With ice cream!"
no subject
[... ... ... Wait did she just say she wanted pie with ice cream? Because, considering what she did in the fight against Shadow Aggie, that is a pretty light sentence...]
...oh. Well.
... Sure, why not?
no subject
Sweet jegus why.]
