How many of you people actually know how to use a computer? Or even a smartphone? A tablet?

How many of you even know what they are?

If not, do you want lessons?

This really is quite fascinating. It's so much faster and easier than anything in my world.

[They'd have to paint or draw it all by hand.]

Let me see... I don't have much experience with drawing, but...

[He'll fiddle around with it a bit.]

[connivingbird]

[Ankh just lets him fiddle with it, tapping an icon or a element here and there just so Forrest knew that there were options to help with the designing part of the app. After a while, he does take a deep breath and tug on the tablet.]

That's the short version on how to use one of these. A better idea would be the kind of equipment you can find over at the school or even in the Near Shore. Among the humans. Maybe a follower you can borrow equipment from?

I'll have to try asking. I'm sure there's someone who would be willing to help out, especially among Lakshmi's followers. She is a beauty goddess, after all.

[connivingbird]

You probably will find a lot of people who use these kinds of programs then. Pretty sure there are a number of people that associated with Lakshmi that do photoshopping stuff all the time.

At least it gives me a good place to start. Thank you for showing me all of this, Ankh.

[connivingbird]

It should. [After all, once he knew what to look for, it would be easier then fumbling around with an idea, right?]

I had the time, that's all. [And he kinda said he would. Just don't expect him to say 'welcome' or anything since he kinda doesn't do that sort of thing. It was like greeting people really.]

[clothes_make_the_man]

Well then, I'll be going.

[Forrest is getting the sense that this is just how Ankh is, and that's fine.]

I'll see myself out.

[connivingbird]

[Just give it a year or so. By that time, he may actually be kinda nice to Forrest instead of the way he was now. As it is, Ankh reaches over to snag one of the pillows and hold it out to him.]

Here. If you want one go ahead and take it. It's fireproof even.

[clothes_make_the_man]

[Forrest seems slightly perplexed at this, but smiles after a moment as he takes the pillow.]

Thank you. This will look nice in the temple's audience chamber.

[connivingbird]

[Giving them away was part of the pillow code. He couldn't destroy them, he couldn't ignore them, so he gave them away or sold them in the human world.]

Anytime. Take however many you wish whenever you wish. I'll always have more.

[clothes_make_the_man]

Oh, well... perhaps two, then, so it will have a mate.

[Symmetry is important, especially where decorating is concerned.]

Thank you again, Ankh.

[connivingbird]

Yeah.

[He's not used to being thanked either, so there is a kind of embarrassed shrug to Forrest's words even as he nudged a pillow that matched the first one towards the guy's direction.]

Any time.
