Hey now... [Raises a hand to protest... lazily. As lazily as humanly possible. Almost inhumanly even. A lethargic EXAGGERATED DRAWN-OUT level nearly suited to a sloth. HONESTLY DOES THIS GUY GIVE ANY FUCKS EVER? JEEZ.] That's rude, yoi. [Not that Marco is actually one to talk. He's hardly polite.]
[HE HAS A LOT OF FRIENDS THOUGH... just not here, except his wife. And brothers. AGAIN, IT IS A LONG FUCKING STORY.]
The subordinate of Dragon is gone now. Leastwise, that or in hiding. Hiding better than I can even find him. [Which is actually saying something since Marco likes to keep track on people from his own world. He has his reasons. Mostly related to that wife and brothers thing though.]
Grell's cats are... [Closes his eyes and pinches the bridge between them to think.] I don't really get it. Digitally restored? [He doesn't visibly change in.... anything else. Tone, emotion, NOTHING. Helpful, right?] They seem real enough, they're like they were before here, but they're like little robots with a catsuit covering. [Crept out yet?]
The den den mushi were the same, eh? Pets. Not functional with their psychic energy even if they had machinery hooked up to them.
It's a shame eh, it's been ages since I saw Stefan -- Pops' dog. [He's pretty sure now Law is the rookie that rescued Jinbei & Ace's little brother, but not many know who the fuck Stefan is. Who Marco's Dad was, goes hand in hand with who Marco is though.]
Oh, but... there is... another technology that --
[.............]
[Here, Marco considers whether or not if he calls the laptop a notebook if Law will take it literally. Like a magical devil fruit paper notebook that does technological shit.]
[............]
[Then Marco momentarily gets tripped up with his own technological issues, and this is why he leaves it to Grell, whom he still hasn't explained, because wow that just requires too much effort.]
[Also is the younger generation better at this sort of thing?]
[Does that include Thatch?]
[Because really everyone is younger than Marco. Except maybe Grell.]
[And others if not nearly as much time passed before he met his Pops, but whatever, time is a thing that Marco can't put into solid concrete frame of reference, and this is precisely why being here doesn't faze him. That and he was in a literal Time Compression before, where he learned about laptops in the first place.]
[.... Laptop which he left home because pssh.]
[Also it's not like he uses a cell phone (cell? Prison cell? Biological cell? It looks like and utilizes the qualities of neither. WHY EVEN CALL IT THAT?!?) since he relies on haki, flying, and sneaking up on his chameleon brother and trying to surprise Grell etc.]
[So...................................]
[YEAH THIS GOT AWKWARD.]
[It's a good thing he put on that exaggerated lazy show before, right?]
[RIGHT?]
[Oh god, he's probably seeming like Aokiji now. Gross.]
[Marine cooties.]
[Super gross.]
[No really where the fuck was he?]
Well, it lets you talk to others. With buttons. Please resist the urge to smash them. [.... Marco and Ace (in the place Marco was before) had a general universal agreement that all buttons are for pushing and smashing no matter what. Yolo.]
If you didn't get one yet, I'm not sure where you get them? I got mine when I first arrived, and I asked for the game they were testing installed on it. [Nods.] They do that too. [And it was the only thing he was better at with the technological aspect. See also: repeated button smashing and giving no fucks.]
Not the Dildo of Death
