Any time and space-warping attributes to it, or is it just an over-funded wristwatch?
Speaking of which, what time is it?

I would be delighted if I could just scrap this account and make a new one that doesn't have a stupid name. Sadly, there's a rule specifically stating I cannot. I could be happier about that.
"Here we can see a catalog of the things we have on our persons. It does not include things we do not carry."
"Here we can see the different things we can try in an emergency."
"Here we have my favorite part. With this I can change up parts of my inventory. I can mix items up or use them in new ways. For example I have my revolver set so that I can use it more easily. I can only do this with things that I have though."
"Play? Like music? What is Pong? No, no music. That is an interesting idea, though, computers making music..."

Kirill: Spend the rest of the expedition so entirely engrossed in experimenting with the problem of computers producing music you fail to notice when a perilous predicament presents itself.
Also, think you could explain the conjoinment grid in a bit more detail? It's looking a bit...confusing.
Unplug something in order to link your cracker and your pen
Edible ink???

David: Use Unlikely Viewshift
Hey look, it's a wild Signature!
This looks amazing. The opening literally gave me chills when it zoomed out.
> Kirill: Provide a more detailed explanation on how the Conjointment Grid works.
What is this mysterious CON/RAST!?
Also go EXPLORE!
> Inquire of David as to what kind of shoddy videographer he is. You will be filming in a cave and he has failed to bring lights!?
"Hahaha, oh yes, sorry, I sometimes forget that not everyone understands what I mean...heheh."
"Let's see... The top row is drawn from my inventory. The icons each represent a different thing that I am carrying. The left column represents certain basic actions. Attacking which is self-explanatory, Casting which means throwing or shooting, and Affecting, which means using an item to change something. The right column are my skills.
By connecting these things together, we can get some interesting results. For example..."
"This cracker-notebook I made earlier. I call this process 'conjoining.' I could not resist taking a nibble, the binding is a bit tough but the pages are crispy. It is filled with baking directions."
"However, if I disconnect them like so..."
"I get the originals back."
"And now that this space is freed up, I can make..."
"... A rather large pretzel stick? Well, you never know what you will get."
"That is the measurement of how much memory is available for conjoining items. There are three marks available, which are all occupied. One mark is unavailable because the battery is not quite full.
Rast is short for Rasterize. If you make a conjointment you like, you can join the objects together permanently, so you can conjoin it with more things later. However, it uses a mark of energy. So, rasterizing something will limit the number of fluid conjointments you can make. With a supply of energy there's really no limit on what you can conjoin.
And yes, you can do the same thing with skills, too. But not actions. That would be strange."
"This is very interesting Kirill, but we should be getting ready to go, yeah? It will be daybreak soon."
"Oh, yes, I suppose so. Let us break camp and make for the caves."
Fidel, having lived a simple life away from technology more advanced than an automobile, seems to find the whole thing rather stunning. He seems to keep it to himself, but he's likely going over any witchcraft protection prayers he can think of in his head.
Here is where the film cuts off. Presumably, David shuts off the camera to help with the packing. However, it comes back later. Judging by the brightness, it is roughly noon.
"-o not see why you did not tell me that there was a ROAD to the caves."
"... you say you wanted to hike through the forest, so we go through the forest."
"I simply meant I was willing to do whatever it took to get here, I didn't know that there-"
"Ahem, gentlemen, perhaps we should drop the argument. We are here now, and that's all that matters, right?"
"Ugh."
"It's too bad we gave in to bolshevik ideals, or perhaps we would have had sense to check a map!"
"Yes, it is certainly unfortunate."

Enter ye touriste shoppe!
>Kirill (or maybe David): Puzzle over exactly how a mere computer is managing to combine real items. For example, where did all those recipes in the book come from? Certainly they weren't stored on the device, its memory is insufficient.

>Attempt to buy something helpful, but realize you have no money because of Communism! Didn't think that through, did ya, Comrade?
