Day 70: T&M Electronics (Morning)
For today's field trip, Rita’s nurse had decided to bring her a button-up dress that looked like it was made of the same material dishcloths were. The bluish plaid pattern was an eyesore. What was worse, it only came down to just around the knees, leaving the burns on the outer side of her left leg clearly visible. At least she could walk much better than yesterday, but the large blotch of discolored skin and scabbing was unsightly, and it made her feel more vulnerable than she liked.
At least some of the other patients had worse outfits picked for them. She'd just have to deal with it and get on with her day.
There was still so much Rita wanted to learn last night, about IRIS, about the third floor, and about the institute itself, but it looked like their time had been cut short. Still, interacting with IRIS had made Rita even more curious about this world's technology than before. Maybe she could kill time by familiarizing herself with some common devices.
And so, Rita decided to visit the electronics store. She entered and started looking around, picking up a few products, reading their descriptions, and putting them back.
Her eyes were soon drawn to some devices with large screens... 'televisions,' the label said. There were a couple displaying footage, presumably to show the display's quality to customers. Rita had seen something similar in the institute before, but now that she could examine it up close... it really was stunning, how clear the images were. How were they produced? The mage drew closer and closer, then reached out her fingers to touch.
