Sounds pretty similar, although here it's less likely to be 'play' than 'movie'--we probably have more technology than you do--a movie is a nonmagical audio/visual recording.

Ooh! How's that work?

Permalink

The most primitive versions involve light projected through translucent images that go by very fast. The current versions involve...data handling technology. I can try to explain computers but I'm not sure which end you prefer I start from.

Permalink

'End'?

Permalink

Like, from how to use them, or how they work?

Permalink

Ooh! Well, give me an overview of what they do then go into how they work?

Permalink

She will explain computers!

Computers are so amazing.

(She is also so amazing. He might be leaking that a bit with the telepathy. It might not be wholly subconscious.)

Permalink

Oh, she likes this one.

That might also get not-subconsciously-leaked.

Eeeeeee!

You know, when I said 'gains from trade' I'd been thinking about magic but if this is the kind of technology you have I think that works way better!

Permalink

It's more scalable!

Permalink

Yeah! And, okay, if you have this kind of thing what other kinds of awesome things do you have? He points at a car down on the street. Does that run on not-magic?

Permalink

That runs on a different kind of not magic!

Permalink

I think your world is way better than mine in like every way.

Permalink

Yeah, you're probably right. It's possible your Ancients had a cooler culture than ours?

Permalink

Maybe. Not a whole lot of it's around, we can infer they were pretty lavishly magical based on the ruins but other than that a lot's been lost.

Permalink

Yeah, that's pretty much what we've got too.

Permalink

I wonder if we should infer anything from this sample of two.

Permalink

Two isn't really statistically significant.

Permalink

It isn't. Three might be.

Permalink

Too bad we don't have a third.

Permalink

After we fix my world and figure yours out we can go looking for others.

Permalink

Maybe they won't have Ancients.

Permalink

And if they also do have Ancients I think we might have to start getting worried.
