[Game thread] Skull Ruins Pokerole

[PhantomUnderYourDesk]

It's too bulky to strap on by yourself. Bill or someone will have to help you.
Bill says he will have to power up the master Time Capsule to dispense another copy of the wristwatch. He gets that started.
It can pass as something like a Poketch or e-watch, you think.
It can't really be tested because you're currently in the same timestream, but Bill says you'll be able to make sure the MSC signaler antenna is sending and receiving.

Oh. Well, in that case Shiva does let Bill help on straping the PTC (that's how I'll gonna call the device from now on) on her wrist, but she subtly flinches away in embarassment by his touch and her hand is faintly trembling. If that's an issue that makes things more hard than needed, she'll just ask Alakazam to help with his strong psychic powers.

If it passes as a modern e-watch or such, all's well from her side, as her (and my) biggest worry are people starting to ask uncomfortable questions what this curious watchlike device is that she's wearing! D:

That brief lurch showing the unadulterated bayfront farm probably came either way too fast in the means of 'We technically don't have the PTC's at that time yet or they aren't activated yet' or in the means of 'It's gone too fast to properly react and use this as an opportunity for a quick test run of sending a message to Bill from within the lurch'ing  I'd guess, but it surely scares poor Shiva to the very core still because it came so suddenly and just when she was starting to wind down again. Oh well, but she's definitely making sure that the signaler antenna is working indeed. Just to be certain! She feels like having enough information now to get along well with this device once she got used it (or once I gathered and noted all given info), but if there are more details that need to be known, now would be the point that Shiva asks for them. If there aren't, she hasn't anything more to add concerning this topic, she's not 'persuading' Terra at all either when he declines wearing one the devices. His personal decision, and she is aware that he's having his issues with anything more complex and/or technical! How he's getting along with his Pokedex is already something she feels has taken him time.

"Yeah, I can give you a crash course on the big screen! Let me teach you about pointers, private and public keys, and remoting. That will let you upload people's pre-programmed box environments to your PC, and to securely share information and material with others if you know their public key. The PC normally handles all that by itself automatically, but for advanced users you can "hack" your own system to make any custom alterations that are allowed. Actually building your own box environments, instead of relying on existing ones, is an advanced topic that would take days to teach."

He teaches you that.

-12xp, +2 points in PC Science Speciality. A third point is aimed for if it turns out useful.

Aww! She's naturally very delighted that Bill's up to share a bit of his precious knowledge to her, she proofs to be an attentive student that learns things fast as soon as having gotten it. When testing things our practically on the big screen under the watchful eyes of Bill himself and Porygon2 she realizes how much fun it actually is to edit and 'hack' around in the range of what is allowed and doesn't serve to accidently break the system or cause a bluescreen at worst, means Shiva always keeps the unaltered code backuped in order to rescue and restore things if something's she's been busy at malfunctions.

She doesn't voice it openly, but she'd actually be all up to stay a few days and learn how to build her own PC Box Environment for her Pokemon to enjoy, but there's no time for that now and she needs to get a little more experienced at first before attempting to do that - maybe Telperion Uni or so can help with that when time is ripe. For now, she's enjoying to play around a bit, trying out this and that, editing here and there only to see what happens and whether the PC accepts her altered codes and keys.

More sweets or snacks she does not have to gift, but Bill certainly receives a very timid but honestly thankful smile. For a moment, her eyes even very briefly sparkle up! "Yes, that's pretty much what would be useful for me, thanks a lot for the time taken! I'll train what you've taught me whenever I'm having the opportunity and time to do." She short break follows before she does speak up once more, this time facing the big screen with a thoughtful look. " Do you think you could also... Well, show me how I can safely access the deep web (not dark web, that's a difference!) to search for an information that a standard search engine doesn't provide for example, I'd be very grateful as well. Please!~ I feel like, ehm, that could be useful. It's not illegal either to do so."

Once that's done, she'll show him some of her Pokemon that I'll list later, and after that I've done and asked everything I wanted to at this vsit.
