[That's probably also an unfamiliar term, isn't it? Kind of like Craft is for her, even if she somewhat understands it now from context clues (though the way that Siffrin seems to imply that it's something separate from magic does confuse her a bit).]
My phone back home had a camera in it, so it could do that, too—make pictures. [Facing Siffrin, she brings her thumbs and index fingers to the body of her disguise, making them form a rectangle around one eye.] If I still had it, I would've already gotten a pic of you, heh.
[She'd take so many pictures, of so many things—and she'd have plenty of old pictures to share, too. Grumpearl images just aren't the same when they inevitably fade, preserved in memory only. She withdraws her arms and droops with a sigh.]
Ugh, I'd kill to have it back... That'd give us hours of entertainment, too!
[Probably(?) like a camera. Siffrin nods, hesitantly. Slightly more hesitantly when she also mentions phones, which is yet another new term for them.]
[It's too bad that Shoka's camera hand shape isn't a certain secret fourth hand shape... still, they kind of get the idea from how wide she's holding her hands apart.]
Something that small can make pictures? Wouldn't you only be able to make ones of things that were really small??
Or... I guess if you hold it far enough away, it can reflect something big...?
Uh, no? [She's not explaining this very well, is she?] I mean, maybe if you were holding it super close or something... Angle's important, obvi, but you can take pics of pretty much anything. Normal-sized pics.
[Come to think of it... her arms are so long now that if she did have her phone, they could basically serve as built-in selfie sticks. Incredible and tragic to consider.]
Anyway, it also didn't just make pictures. Mine had games on it, too, along with music and stuff...

[Even then! What are these, pictures for ants??]
[But...] It does sound fun.
