What's going on...

[no_acclaim]

Looks like a webcam to me.

[howaverage]

A what-cam now?

[ WE DUN HAVE THOSE THINGS IN '93 or we do but they're like unheard of. ]

[no_acclaim]

[He gives her a kind of horrified look.]

...it's a camera... show. She sits there and du--people pay to watch her.

[howaverage]

Oh, like a strip bar. Only... on television? [ THAT DOESN'T SOUND VERY POSSIBLE IN HER HEAD... ] Is this what cable got these days?

[no_acclaim]

I guess.... there are cable ones too. This one's on the internet.

[He motions at the screen in question. Definitely not a TV.]

[ She looks at it and tilts her head. Well, yeah, it would be a weird looking television, but hey, things are invented every other second. ] Isn't the Internet something brand new? [ A pause. ] Damn, the porn industry works fast.

[no_acclaim]

[Asdfghjk he wishes she wouldn't call it porn. It makes him look like a creep knowing about it. He'd never actually watched a webcam girl in his life, but he was accosted with the pop ups often enough to know anyway, and she should have too.]

...brand new? No. I've been using it since I was like five.

[ She's 27 and has a little brother of 21. She knows all boys know about porn and she's pretty sure every single one of them has at least one underwear magazine under the bed.

She isn't expecting his response though. She arches an eyebrow and looks at him from head to toe. ]

I'm sorry, but just how old are you?

[no_acclaim]

Nineteen. Twenty in April.

[He didn't have an underwear magazine under the bed. He shared his bed with his eight year old brother. He pretty much shut his sex life off except for the occasional fling at a party.]

[howaverage]

You're a baby! [ Well, okay, he isn't, but still. She's pretty tactless. ] How do you know so much about the Internet already?

[no_acclaim]

[He looks offended. He doesn't like being called a baby at all. He's been the main provider for his brothers since he was eleven, and now it's just him and Temple and he's determined to be an adult for him. It's a little snappish when he tells her,]

My baby brother's eight and he knows how to use the internet.

[howaverage]

[ She's gonna make this derpy face at him. ]

I don't even use it. Should kids be using the Internet?

[no_acclaim]

...everyone uses the internet, are you kidding?

[howaverage]

Not really. We don't use it. It's too expensive.

[no_acclaim]

That's... weird.
