[ Right to business. It is what comes most naturally to them, after years of doing battle. Dion quietly appreciates it, some source of relative normalcy amidst all the bizarre elements they contend with at all times.
He moves to stand beside Odin following a brief internal debate, deeming it best for their present objective. Still yet, he ensures there is sufficient space between them so as not to crowd. This too suits them best, though Odin is surely free of his empathic affliction. ]
If you will first engage the communication device's display, I will explain where to navigate from there.
[ It is a simple matter once one knows where to look. Privately, Dion wonders why Ramuh had not lent his aid in this by now, new as he is to Etraya in comparison to the two, but it isn't a question he sees fit to ask. ]
[Silently Barnabas follows his instructions, though not before sparing the younger Dominant a side-long glance at him sidling next to him. There is a level of... familiarity that he and Bahamut have experienced since being brought here, and Barnabas is not fully certain what to make of it.
Regardless, he does not let the thought distract him as he sets about to focus on their task. Opening up the communications menu, thus allowing the holographic interface to hang before them from his earpiece. Lo and behold, there is stands in all its glory: JossSweden.
Once more he casts Bahamut a look, though this one now more expectant than scrutinizing.]
[ Dion glances at the display and its...curious name for Odin. He needn't remind himself where to look, but he couldn't assume all displays were identical, so the brief perusal is a precaution of a kind. ]
That symbol in the top right corner, if selected, yields a list of options. The first will lead to where the name can be changed.
[ He resists the reflex to point, knowing full well that Odin does not require assistance sighting the menu icon. More importantly, he'd much prefer not intruding more than is strictly necessary. They have done well to cooperate under the circumstances on more than one occasion, and Dion appreciates the aid he'd been given, but he's wary of testing Odin's tolerance. ]
Barnabas looks at the symbols he could be meaning, they are... all symbols in a manner of speaking, though directionally the top right, should he mean the most top right? But wouldn't that beβ
He hits the X in the corner. The hologram disappears.
Barnabas looks at Bahamut, his expression unmoving besides the slight furrow of his brow.]
[ Dion grants himself a moment during which to process just how they have arrived at this outcome, bafflement plain on his features for a flicker of a moment. Odin utilizes the network competently enough that he didn't consider whether his fellow Dominant would have any difficulties differentiating the contents of the screen.
The assumption was his mistake. Recognizing this, he gathers himself for the second attempt. ]
The top right symbol within the...frame of the viewing screen. It resembles a cog. The frame itself we need not concern ourselves with until the task is done.
[ He hopes this time he has clarified sufficiently enough. ]
[No one. No one sees Barnabas as he accesses the network normally. They do not see how he takes quite a few tries to properly navigate it. He is not a stupid man by any measure, but he is not a man built for this.
With new instructions, Barnabas once more touches his earpiece, allowing it to project the menus. His eyes quickly scan the top right, lingering on that accursed X for but a beat, before he spies the cog. With a gesture, he selects it, opening up the settings menu that he...has never seen before.
Among its available options is indeed one that allows him to change his name. Barnabas lets out a breath.]
Cidolfus once bore a name different than that which he now bears.
[Why did he not show me this? Is the unvoiced question.]
[ So Dion suspects, observing as Odin navigates the interface. It remains a curiosity that Ramuh didn't assist in making this change once he'd attended to his own. Perhaps he reasoned that Odin was unconcerned with it, or perhaps it he'd some other reason.
Regardless, it seemed to him that it would have been gracious to offer, seeing as the two are clearly involved. Though it's none of Dion's affair, he certainly has noticed as much. Odin's concern for the man's health could not be only pragmatic. ]
From here, you can select the current name with a lingering touch where it is written. Once it appears to be surrounded by color, you can write the name you prefer.
[ Dion thinks he knows what to expect. They have certain things in common, and while Dion may prefer to be addressed by name, he still reasons their Eikons are most easily recognized for their singular nature in their world. ]
His arrival paired with my own, thus our epithets similarly were chosen for us. Our introduction was unusual.
[As he explains, he follows Bahamut's instructions. Though, not before clicking one of the other items on the menu on accidentβfont sizes. Barnabas glowers.
He doesn't hit the back button. He hits the X, once again closing out of the whole thing. Then he opens the menus again, repeating the steps previous, before he correctly selects the name. As it gets surrounded by color, just as Bahamut described, the virtual keyboard manifests, which is... on its largest setting. Hitting delete, Barnabas then uses one open hand to type in the new name:
[ Dion acknowledges this information with a quiet, affirming sound caught behind closed lips. It was a curious thing, the manner in which they arrived in this place. He counts himself fortunate that these peculiarities did not include some strange name assigned to him in his case.
Perhaps he should also be grateful the Earth mission had taught him typing form as well, he thinks, as he observes the way Odin enterd his name into the text field. Did he always write that way, even his longer responses to others?
The thought alone enough to leave him gawking before he catches himself. Ahem. ]
...From there, you can confirm the change by tapping the grey box with the word "save" on it. You should then see a message stating your updates have been saved.
