Side Quest 01

[newmemorywhodis]

[At the end of the skyship battle - when all the escort ships are destroyed, and everyone is making their way back to the surface - Link sends an image to the network.

It's a selfie. In the foreground is Link, posing with one hand out to the side as he stands on the deck of the Corsair ship. Behind him is one of the Empire escort ships, alight with flames. Link has managed to angle the camera so that it looks like the burning ship is held in his hand.]

It's at this point, finally, that Link stops spamming her with endless selfies.

She's close enough by now that she could easily dodge out of the way anyway. So instead he shifts his device so he can see the photo album - with his last few selfies all visible.

"Camera," he says.

Nephenee looks at the device, tilting her head in visible confusion.

"Ca...mera?" This isn't like anything she's seen back home, and frankly, she just knows of the text and video things on the devices. She didn't know this thingy existed!

[newmemorywhodis]

Link nods, and angles his device so she can see. He points it at the the deck of the ship, where the mast is, and presses the camera 'rune'. Click!

"It makes pictures," he says.

[relentless_sentinel]

Thaaat's absolutely bonkers to the Sentinel, and she stares in wonder.

"Is that what they're called, the still images? That's amazin'...ya jus' hit the button an' it...keeps it, Ah guess?"

[newmemorywhodis]

Link nods.

"Like a painting." Except you didn't have to actually paint it. Which was a good thing, because Link had absolutely zero skill with a paintbrush.

[relentless_sentinel]

Nephenee's not much better. She can doodle decently, but her paintings would be like a 5-year-old's probably, since she's never painted before. There is no painting talent between these two!

"Whoa..." Magic and technology are cool...she fidgets a little, before working up the nerve to ask, "Um...can Ah try?"

[newmemorywhodis]

Link blinks, looking faintly confused at the fact that she needs to ask.

"You have one?" He says, eyebrows furrowed. Sure, Link could lend her his communicator...but surely she'd prefer to use her own instead, so she could easily keep the pictures?

[relentless_sentinel]

Now it's her turn to blink, and then to blush.

"Oh, right...Ah...didn't e'en realize 'til jus' now that mine could do it..."

She's very much not used to technology, so it never occurred to her, and she got too focused on the topic. Oops. She's actually decently intelligent, honest!
