2nd gear | video + action to goldenrod city
[It's around midday, and Asami's 'Gear is propped up to record her sitting at a small table in the park. Her Riolu sits quietly beside her. The worn table is inlaid with a chess board, and the seat across from her is empty for now.]
Where I'm from, we have a game called Pai Sho.
[She speaks while she reaches into her bag to pull out a newly purchased chess set- mainly, the directions.]
It's a game of careful thinking and ruthless strategy. There doesn't seem to be a real equivalent here, but someone did point me toward this. Chess.
[Asami begins taking out the pieces and laying them out on the board.]
Anyone know anything about it?
[She'll be here for a while, reading over the rules and trying to teach Teruko how to play with her.]

i really hope i got this right lmao, you can ignore whatever she says if i got something wrong
[It's been forever since she had another girl to geek about this, and well, she hasn't really tried to look for anyone to geek about this for a while anyway...]
We have cars, and extremely uncomfortable trains. I've seen boats and ferries here and I've heard about planes! Airships, what are those? We're not really that far in technology back where I'm from, but we'll get there one day.
Don't worry, I think it's a thing back where I come from only, no one's ever heard of them. I could show you the one I have here with me!
ahaha no worries! ambiguously technologically developed amestris...
And if you have a model, I'd love to see it.
no subject
[Though now she's just imagining a flying ship and trying to not think how people might fall of from it... While she goes to find a box, it's a big box.]
Here we go then~! [she opens it and there's a very detailed, prosthetic limb inside.] I'm working on a leg too, but this will do for now.
no subject
And it's a fully functioning limb?
[And you've been carrying that around?]
where is a girl's manga guide on fma, including automails, when she needs the book
Sort... of? These wires here [see, she even points at the two coming out from it.] there should be more of them, but this whole thing is more like just an example.
But if there were more of them and if i made the parts to connect it into a human or an animal, then it would be. They're kind of complicated in that they take electricity into themselves from the movement of muscles and body to work properly, so without all the wires and complicated surgery, it'd be more like a normal prosthesis [OR NOT WORK AT ALL.] -- buuuuut if they're done the right way, then they work more like a normal limb than a prosthesis.
hahaha
[Asami's staring into the screen with wonderment. Still.]
We're not even close to that kind of tech in the United Republic!
never here when I need it... or always lost in my bookshelf XD
It is really incredible! Some people even hide mini weapons inside these -- not that I support those unless they're in the hands of people, who use them for self-protection only.
But your tech sounds amazing too! My home world has had many wars, so our technology with these became really advanced because people need them so much...
