[His latter comment made her duck her head sheepishly.]

I didn't wanna bother you.

[The next part is even more sheepish.]

I sort of didn't plan it out well either, I just...got sick of doing nothing, and needed the distraction. Nanami and I cleaned the basement out a few months ago after Henry was gone, but it had been standing empty. Decided to claim it.

[charming_jerk]

That's fair. Next time, though, I gotcha. Hey, can I see what pictures ya took sometime?

[deadlyvu]

Once I've developed them, sure! Nanami was asking how it was done too, so I said I'd show her. I can have you over and show you too if you want? It's boring at some points I mean, to some people.

[There's a sheepish grin there.]

I think it's really kind of amazing. You've seen negatives right? It's really neat how photos go from them, to the blown up prints we all know!

[Clear she loves her hobby. Especially if she knows how to develop her own pictures.]

[charming_jerk]

Not in a long time, but yeah. [He was born in 1992. Film was quickly on its way out when he was growing up.] Sure, I could take a look sometime. I never saw stuff gettin' developed before. I know it involves a mess of chemicals and a dark room, that's about it. I pretty much only ever used digital cameras or my phone for pictures back home.

[deadlyvu]

[Oh gosh you mean she's technically older than him? Wow.]

You can take pictures with your phone now? Deadly vu!

[That is new to Lydia. That sounds amazing!]

HOw is a digital camera different than a regular one? It sounds heavy.

[charming_jerk]

Nah, not at all. It just takes pictures 'n stores them on an SD card, so you can put 'em on your computer or print 'em out. It's way easier with your phone.

[Hmmmm.] ...What year was it where you were from?

[deadlyvu]

[Those are some very large dark eyes, and clearly Lydia is impressed. That sounds so cool!]

1992. I can't imagine how expensive those phones must be. I mean a computer is pretty expensive, how would you fit the phone near the printer? Is it like a fax where it's all 1 unit?

[charming_jerk]

Computers 'n stuff get a lot smaller real fast. But some of 'em are still kinda expensive, I guess.

[His family had the cash to get him the newest iPhones, so he never thought about it much.

The year she mentions makes him grin, though.]

What, really? Huh. That's the year I was born.

[deadlyvu]

[That'll make those wide-dark eyes blink in surprise. Then she'll chuckle at herself.]

So what you're saying is even though I'm 15, I'm older than you?

[There's an impish grin to go with that.]

[charming_jerk]

Seems that way. Huh. And I came here from 2012. Meanin' you'd be 35 in my time. Weird.

[He never considered something like this before. Surprisingly, between Exsilium and Crystallis, Johnny hasn't met a ton of people from worlds or times close to his. Something else dawns on him and he looks weirded out.]

... That means yer, like, only a year or so younger than my mom.

[deadlyvu]

[Okay, Lydia looks weirded out by that too. Especially since that just about killed the last of any crush she had on him.]

Ewwwwwww

[A classic teenage reaction there, scrunched up face and everything.]
