Look!

[Jade presents to the camera one frying pan, with eggs that look only lightly browned, but pretty edible.]I made them all by myself! I didn't catch them on fire, and I made sure to watch them and the fire alarm didn't go off! I'm getting better! And I've been learning to cook other stuff too, all on my own. Because I don't want to hurt

It's really not that hard to get food not to catch fire, Jade. But... congratulations, anyway.

[ He looks a little confused, though... ] What are colorful reminders?

[video]

[memorymodus]

Well at home, you just stuck it in the cookalizer and it cooked all by itself! But here it's a lot different.

[She points at the blue reminder on her finger.]

These are! When I need to remember something for the future, I tie a string around my finger and it helps me remember. I used to be able to keep track of future events with them, but now...I don't really know what they do.

[couragemantra]

Cookalizer? Is that some off-brand microwave oven?

That sounds more confusing than anything else. When I need to remember things, I make post-it notes or write them in a planner. There's no need to resort to wrapping string around your fingers.

[memorymodus]

Kind of! You just stick stuff in and tell it what setting, and it cooks or irradiates the thing inside!

They've always worked for me!

[He peers at the eggs. They... don't look very good, but it's not like he can do any better.] You've gotten much better.

But... aren't you a bit young to be joining the Watch?

[memorymodus]

Compared to last time, yes! The other ones were horrible.

[She knows. She ate them.]

Not really? I mean, I've been using guns since I was really little!

[dofaye]

Yes, but--!

[There are so many things wrong with that he's not sure where to begin. D: But he'll stick to calmly pointing this out for now.]

You're still rather little.

[memorymodus]

Oh...

I guess I am! But so's Dave, and John...and they're really strong! I need to get stronger so I can get in the loop.

[He switches to video and leans forward a bit, as if by doing so he could get a closer look at Jade's eggs]

They have come out splendidly! And maybe your reminders were referring to the eggs. Or the stove! Maybe you have remembered everything there is to remember for now. That would be an accomplishment.

[And he pauses when she mentions the Watch. They did not make a good first impression on N, and he is wary]

Be careful. Midnight is quite late.

[She holds the eggs up, closer to the screen!]

I don't know what they were referring to, but you could be right, about both those things!

[She nods.]

Don't worry, I'll be okay! It's not that late.

Perhaps not compared to later hours of the night, but you will be outside in the dark.

[memorymodus]

The dark doesn't bother me! I just want people to be safe, and if I can help, then I should!

[Voice] OOC: hey~ check your link, yer missing a h.

[justacafeowner]

Congrats! You're on your way to becoming a productive part of society.

[voice] The h is missing like pumpkins!

[memorymodus]

At home, we didn't have a stove!

[dai_mon_dai]

[Just... looking at those eggs like he's starving to death]

[memorymodus]

[She notices!]

Oh, do you want some?
