Post-15 Strangers CMO!

[superstylishsquid]

For post-round shenanigans with Alastor, including renting his services as a multiversal taxi. People who wanted to keep in touch would have been told the proper pronunciation of his name to draw his attention from wherever he may be.

Comments

[Alastor has never felt neglected with Roland, even when his attention has been on other things. The moments they share when left more or less to themselves had left no doubt in his mind about how the human man feels about him, even before he'd regained his full senses and all but tasted the love radiating from him.]

Maybe I'll get you one. While we're at it, you oughta get a phone. These days, they're wireless and can fit in your pocket.

[ It was truly to the point that even Moriarty had brought up that overabundance of love he held in his heart, so there was never once a doubt about how he felt. He sometimes forgot to reign it in, but never worried he was coming off as being at all too much as he felt it was something Alastor may happen to bring up if it did reach that point. ]

Wireless handheld consoles AND phones small enough to go with you in your pocket?!

[ Roland laughed happily, feeling a bit of that buzz starting to kick in. It was sooner than expected but this was also much stronger stuff than anything he'd ever really had before. ]

I've said it before, but modern technology truly is incredible!!

[It's a lot, sometimes...but it's endearing. In a world where even angels can be callous, Alastor considers the abundant love for everything some people have to be almost a breath of fresh air. It had also factored into his decision to discuss polyamory, he'd been all but certain Roland was too full of love to only ever feel the romantic sort for one person at a time.

He chuckles and reaches into a pocket that really only exists as an entrance into his storage spell, producing a new looking smartphone in a protective case.]

Phones have come a long way while I've been off in Movieland, too. Now they have screens that respond to touch, plus a ton of other things you'll need to see some other bits of modern technology to understand the value of.

[ The way it was currently, if someone else mutually piqued their interest it probably wouldn't be off the table to introduce a third party into their relationship and he'd give them just as much love as he did with Alastor. Something that they could tackle when the time came, really.

For now?

Words couldn't describe the absolute giddiness that showed on his face, leaning in to get a closer look at it, even setting his drink down so he didn't end up spilling any of it. ]

Amazing!! I truly can't wait to learn about all of it!

[ One could almost liken him to a child with how happy he was about all this, and not a 6 foot tall vampire hunter. ]

[It's honestly something he finds endearing about Roland, how enthusiastic he is to learn about new things. So many people, both mortal and immortal, get stuck in ruts once they find themselves comfortable in their self-sufficiency.

His wing spreads out to wrap around Roland's shoulders as he leans over. He unlocks his phone to show the home screen, fairly sparse thanks to how new the phone is, but already with a couple mobile games installed.]

Well, for one thing, phones are practically a game console of their own these days. There's a ton of games designed to run on them.

[Ever helpful, Rodin decides to demonstrate another function of modern mobile phones...by taking a picture of the two being snuggly at the bar.]

Heheh, cute.

[godspiousjasper]

[ That familiar wing wrapping around his shoulder is quite nice and very much welcomed, and whether it was done out of pure habit or something else? His one arm moved over, careful as ever in minding the wings to reach over and place his hand on the devil's back even as his attention was mostly riveted on the little screen. ]

What? Really?? I'd have thought they'd need to be much larger devices to be able to contain multiple games..

[ Roland was genuinely interested AND baffled by how this little thing could do so much. Phones in his time were not this small, and only had the base function of just doing calls and then modern ones could play numerous games on them???

Then there was the off-hand comment from Rodin. Had he taken a picture? If so.. that had been super quick. How...? ]

I can only surmise that these phones can also take pictures as well..?

[superstylishsquid]

[Alastor gives Rodin a huffy look that's undercut by the violet tint to his cheeks and the childish way he sticks his tongue out. Maybe one would expect him to be more serious in the presence of the oldest and most powerful of devils, but in practice, they treat each other more like peers.]

They can, and instantly save them. Beats carrying a disposable camera around.

[Rodin ignores Alastor's rude expression and goes back to his game.]

Older consoles were pretty damn bulky, but humans have been determined to make them portable. You oughta see my old Nintendo system.
