[ After much, much, much fiddling around, bickering and confusion, the fruits of their labor finally manifest in a message appearing on Neil's phone: ]
[Nailed it. Charlie will hear the front door of their little cottage open and close. Neil closes his phone and puts it in his pocket until he's made it all the way to the end of the street. Hell! He'll even round the corner and go all the way to that end too.
[He takes his phone out once again, navigating to Charlie's message with no help.]
[Alright. He's got this. He took a test picture earlier today while he was walking through the Greenery. Just give him a few minutes - a few minutes, and then...
[Voila! A picture of a true, genuine Stellari squirrel. He sends it to Charlie. It works!]
[Neil's just reaching the front door of their little cottage by the time the message goes through. He stands outside the door to send a message back. It takes about as long.]
We'll practice as much as possible, then. The punctuation is particularly challenging.
I am outside. Should I come in?
[They may be tempted to talk in person! This is intensive studying! They know they're no good for that when they're alone!]
[ It takes a while for Charlie to type the message, but even longer for him to consider the answer. They really won't get anything done if they're together, so... ]
Yeah. Come in. Don't stand around outside. But let's stay in different rooms and keep practicing.
[He considers only sending that, but decides to add a "quick":]
I'll come in right now.
[Alright. He opens the door and passes through. He does poke his head into Charlie's bedroom real quick, but only to give him a quick wink. Then, he goes to his own, even going so far as to shut the door.]
[ Neil ducks in for a wink before heading to the room across the hall, and for a moment it's so Welton that Charlie's stomach turns over on itself.
He manages to give a thumbs up before Neil shuts the door, and then that hand covers his eyes, pulls down his face. He needs to get his shit together. ]
Alright.
[ He sends... the blurry photo of Kazuya that he took when he first learned how to use his phone. ]
This is the guy who showed me how the camera works.

Looks great, slick. Now come back.
[ And while Neil's walking back, Charlie will take the entire duration to type out one message: ]
We should keep practicing so we don't look like dumbasses with all the future people here.

Spectacular. What's his name?
