Simeon: Ah, Chise? I’ve called to ask for your help.
Sure, ask away.
Simeon: Thank you! You’re so reliable, Chise.
–
2. With what?
Simeon: You see, I’d like to know more about D.D.D.’s. For starters...
–
Simeon: Could you teach me how to place a call?
...
Simeon: Chise? Are you there? I can’t hear anything. Perhaps the reception is bad?
Simeon: *way too loud* Hellooo?! Chise?!
I can hear you just fine.
I was just too shocked to answer.
Simeon: Oh, so I didn’t lose you. What a relief.
How did you make this call?
You’re talking on the phone right now, aren’t you?
Simeon: Lucifer placed the call for me. So, I don’t know how to do it myself.
Why not ask Lucifer…?
Lucifer won’t teach you?
Simeon: I was actually asking him various questions a moment ago... But he suddenly placed a call to you, saying... “I do not have all day! You can ask Chise the rest!” Then, he up and disappeared somewhere. Irresponsible, don’t you agree?
So he’s left all the work to me...
Simeon: Yes, I’ve been left in your capable hands.
–
2. I kind of get where he was coming from...
Simeon: Huh? You’re going to help me, though, aren’t you?
–
Simeon: For now, I’d like to be able to place calls on my own. Could you explain the process to me?
All right.
First, enter the number...
Simeon: …I see, I see…
Simeon: So, you first type the number of the person you’re trying to contact and then press the “call” button, yes? That’s the one with a symbol that looks like a receiver...
Simeon: Don’t you feel kind of nervous when it’s time to press it? I mean, what if it triggers an explosion? All right, I’ll try to find it.
Simeon: …This one? Yes, this must be it. Oh, dear me. I have a sudden urge to press it... Heh, I—

Hey, Karasu! – Intimacy Level 10
------------------------
Simeon: Hey, Karasu! Call Chise!
Simeon: Strange... I was told saying those words would place a call to Chise.
Simeon: Hey, Karasu! Call Chise.
I can hear you.
Simeon?
Simeon: Hmmm... Perhaps another type of incantation is required to place phone calls. Ah, can I ask it to do other things?
Simeon: Hey, Karasu! Would you sing me a song?
You’re on the phone with me right now...
Um, you want me to sing?
Simeon: *sigh* No luck...
*gulping noises*
Simeon: Ah, my tea got cold while I was speaking to Karasu... Oh! Maybe it can assist with that?
Simeon: Hey, Karasu! Pour me a fresh cup of tea.
That’s not my job.
Simeon: What...? You can hold a conversation, Karasu? That’s amazing…!
–
2. ...
Simeon: Nothing…
–
Simeon: I wonder if using Karasu requires more than an activation phrase...
(???) Simeon, you’re been talking to your D.D.D. for a while. Are you trying to do something?
Simeon: Ah, Leviathan! Your timing is perfect. I learned how to ask Karasu, the creature that lives in my D.D.D., how to place calls the other day.
Simeon: I need to talk to Chise, so I asked Karasu to place a call for me, but it’s not going through for some reason. All I have to do is say, “Hey, Karasu!” and my request, right?
(Leviathan) Okay, where to start... Since explaining it all at once would go over your head, I’ll start with something simple... Karasu can’t pour tea!
Simeon: Oh dear…
(Leviathan) Stop looking so depressed and let me see your D.D.D. Look, you’re talking to an AI assistant, okay...?
(Leviathan) Hey, Chise? Can you hear me?
I heard everything.
Thanks for helping him out, Levi.
(Leviathan) It looks like the phone’s been connected the entire time.
Simeon: Huh? But, Karasu never said the call had been placed.
(Leviathan) That’s because hearing Chise’s voice on the other end should’ve been enough of a hint...!
Simeon: …I see.
(Leviathan) Here’s your D.D.D. back, Simeon. You wanted to say something to Chise, right?
Simeon: Oh, yes. Chise, I called to tell you something. But, hmm...?
Simeon: I’m sorry, Chise. I was so busy speaking to Karasu that I’ve completely forgotten what I wanted to talk to you about. I’ll place another call once I remember. Chat later.

Unwanted Calls – Intimacy Level 15
------------------------
Simeon: Ah, Chise? *sigh*... May I vent for a moment? There’s something I need to get off my chest.
Sure.
Simeon: Thank you. I really want someone to listen.
–
2. You sound a little tired.
Simeon: Now that you mention it...I could very well be.
–
Simeon: I was so ecstatic to get my own D.D.D. upon arriving in the Devildom that I told Michael about all the wonderful things it can do. You know, like making calls with Karasu like I did the other day... Or how just carrying it around allows it to calculate the total number of steps you take in a day or monitor your health...
Simeon: Anyway, I was so caught up in the moment that I listed every single feature. But apparently, it sounded like I was bragging to Michael... So he instructed me to use my “wonderful D.D.D.” to send him daily reports.
Simeon: “What daily reports?” I retorted at first. Then it struck me that it might be a good opportunity to master some of the applications, so I did as he asked and tried sending daily reports.
Simeon: But a little while ago, he told me that I should now make my reports using video calls over WW... I suppose this is his way of making sure that I’m not slacking off...
Simeon: But, the other person can see your surroundings when you make a video call, right? So I’d have to stay indoors... I mean, I wouldn’t be able to visit the library or browse at second-hand book stores while chatting...
Simeon: *sigh* I never should’ve told Michael about the D.D.D.’s capabilities in the first place...
Why not use a virtual background?
Simeon: A virtual...background...?
Simeon: I’m sure you just suggested an excellent solution, but I’m not familiar with that term.
You can choose your own WW background.
Simeon: What?! That’s news to me. So, I can make it appear that I’m at the House of Lamentation even though I’m somewhere else?
A) Exactly.
–
2. You can choose a background under Settings.
Simeon: So, I can conceal my location from the other side?
2. A) Yes, that’s right.
–
Simeon: What a convenient feature...! Why did Leviathan never mention it? Chise, could you explain to me how to change the background in settings? ...Doing it myself will probably take too long, so I’m heading over to Cocytus Hall right away. See you soon!
Fun AU idea, if the Grey Company hadn’t been captured by the Falcons and held for two weeks (give or take) then they would have arrived in Rohan a bit of time ahead of Aragorn.
I thought my card was blocked and I needed to get some physical money. I almost couldn't eat breakfast. I got late to my only class and also made too many mistakes. A stranger scared me and started to talk too close to me while I was waiting the bus and I lost my new and only glasses that I use when I draw for not get tired too fast.
...And it's only 1 pm now....
At least now I'm home, but I also have too many homework to do... *cries* I want to draw some fanart for release the stress I have....
Okay! I’m ready! ...I hope! I can’t think of anything else I have to do, so... Hopefully I don’t regret leaving something behind!
...Well, you know, or not...
...It’s the name change thing after all! I’m logging out now, so I still won;t be able to access this blog ever again. Well, the stuff I need to log in to see, anyway. Like messages. Don’t send me any messages.
