[Huh, she didn't think about that. Quick, she needs to put on her thinking cap! Think, think, think!]

Uh...maybe? If you don't have any kind of this stuff, what kind of things do you have? Like do you use horses a lot to get from place to place? Or do you still use a lot of wooden stuff?

[Pause]

Those kind of things? [/totally helpful]

[unwaverings]

[ Well, he nods his head at that. ]

Yeah, that's the kind of stuff we have.

[ He's not from a place that has much technology at all, really. ]

Everything I've seen here is nothing like what I had back home. [ ViViD, that powerpoint, and even some of the stuff he's seen in this hospital ... ]

[sjokolade]

Then I think you've found your answer, you are from the past! So I guess I should also say welcome to the future too!

[Anna, what are you doing?]

But don't worry, I'll teach you have to get use to everything around here! That way, you won't end up like me. ...Where I accidentally destroyed a microwave once.

[Never again will she accidentally put metal in a microwave...]

[unwaverings]

[ A ... microwave? He's not sure what that is, but. He laughs a little. ]

Well, I don't really wanna destroy anything. [ That would probably be bad. Even accidentally. ] So I'd really appreciate your help. From the looks of things, there's a lot I'm gonna need to learn about ... [ So many things. ] And from the sound of things, too ... I've never even heard of a "microwave".

[sjokolade]

Oh don't worry! It's a lot easier than you think, all you need to do is push one of the numbers and see how long you want to cook your food! It's simple as that!

[A beat]

That and you gotta be careful about that too or else your food will explode! It's always a fight between the nature of food versus the microwave, it never ever ends!

[unwaverings]

[ Oh, so a microwave cooks food? At least he knows that now. And while she made it seem simple at first, it suddenly seems a lot more complicated, too. Oh gosh. ]

It'll explode?! What's a microwave do to the food, anyway? [ He's pretty sure that's not normal. ] Can't we just use a normal fire to cook it?

[ A fire and some wood should be easy to obtain, too, right! ]

[sjokolade]

Well, we could but can you cook with it on that weird thing? I think it was called an oven? But anyway! The last time I tried to do that, it didn't end up very well...

[And let's just say that it involved a lot of fire. Lots and lots of it]

So it's the mircowave for me! Unless you want to try it with fire! But tell me how it goes, I want to learn how to cook with it too!

[unwaverings]

[ Geez, even cooking here is apparently going to be a problem. Maybe Lailah can help, if/when he finds her ... She's a fire Seraph, after all, so this should be right up her alley! (And he'll never let Mikleo anywhere near these things.) ]

I have a friend who might be able to help with this stuff, so I'll let you know if she can. Maybe she can figure out the microwave a little better. [ Even if she's probably (definitely) never encountered one, maybe fire Seraph instinct can help ... or something ....... He just has to worry about finding her first. ]

In the meantime, you should probably be careful with it ...

[sjokolade]

If she does, I definitely want to go and talk to her! Because if she can handle cooking, then I want to learn how to as well! I don't want to keep on relying on the microwave!

[Anything was better than her poor attempt at cooking to impress Flynn. And even then, said cooking wasn't...that great]

Especially after how all the technology here just wrecked havoc on us too.

[unwaverings]

Well, I could help you a little, I guess. I can cook a bit. [ He's not amazing or anything, but he's grown up to know how to fend for himself. ] But not with a microwave, of course. I'd need a normal fire. [ He'd rather leave the microwave to Lailah, if she can even figure it out.

But that last bit gets his attention. ]

What do you mean it wreaked havoc?

[sjokolade]

You can use the stove? I think it might make it easier for you since you don't need to get firewood or anything.

Although, the other option is to cook food somewhere out in the open and I think that might scare a lot of people really!

[It's still better than Anna's cooking! At least he knows how to cook!]

Hm? Oh yeah! A while ago, for some odd reason, Cerealia thought it would be a good idea to let whatever stuff they had attacked them! [A beat] Which is weird if you ask me.

[unwaverings]

[ Then he'll try to figure out the stoves here when he gets the chance! But, uh. ]

It'd ... scare people? I guess cooking without those tools here isn't really normal then ...

[ Not that he'd go and cook outside. He imagines he could set something up in his home! But ... ah.

What. ]

Wait, they let their own things attack them? Why would they do that? [ ... And how exactly did they attack them? What things ...? ] There's gotta be something they were trying to accomplish with that ... Right?
