(1) are there any available facilities suited to mechanical engineering or computer programming that are open to free use?
(2) are permits required for tamed beasts to hunt in the surrounding forests, or are they free to do as they please?
(3) has anyone held captive here attempted to leave the boundaries of the various cities?
- if yes: are there consequences for attempting to leave?
(4) has anyone attempted communicating with their home?
- if yes: have you been successful?
[ the message is not signed, nor does seto bother with saying hello.
he's gone through as much information as he possibly can, and is familiar with the basic idea of the guilds... but playing a little stupid will spark conversation, and getting to know the people who know the ins and outs of this prison is only going to work to his advantage. in domino city, he needn't bother with pretenses; everyone knew who he was, and how much power he wielded, and therefore, people generally moved out of his way. here, he is (relatively) anonymous, and so will need to work twice as hard to get what he needs without his typical resources.
most importantly, however, is that he is going to lose his mind of boredom if he doesn't have an outlet, and piecing together the puzzle of this place is as good an outlet as any. it will distract him from the skin crawling feeling that he has no control in this place, and if there is one thing seto does not do well with, it is being told he has no choice.
so clearly, the answer is to build something. ]

no subject
tell me how your illusion works, and i'll define computer programming.
no subject
It is magic! I infuse water with my power and enchant someone's senses with it. It lets me show them whatever they want to see.
no subject
computer programming is a technological process for telling a computer which tasks to perform in order to solve problems.
[ he can't think of a simpler way to describe it than that. it'll have to do. ]
your power.
how are you able to get the image from the person's home?
going into their mind?
no subject
[ She does not, in fact, see, but she thinks she gets the gist of it. It sounds like a complicated way of asking a computer to do something. Why you can't just say please is a mystery to her, but she isn't exactly an expert on this technology and computer stuff.
She can try to answer his other questions, though. ]
No, I do not go into anyone's mind. The magic does, I suppose, but I do not see anything unless I join the illusion.
You can think of it like...allowing someone to experience their thoughts and desires. With my magic, I could show them anything, not just their home.
