So a multichannel information hub that can be connected to by many users regardless of distance?

[ Vash is actually kind of smart enough for this. ]

... Now that you mention it, I do think I remember reading something like that when I was a kid. [ A pause. ] I probably didn't think it was interesting enough to keep reading.

[factoring]

Yes, that's a good explanation.

[ And that confession makes her laugh. ]

It's all technical. I'm not surprised you got bored of it.

[piteous]

It was mostly on how to set it up from scratch.

[ so she's right. ]

So all of your work is online? No needing to go out in the field?

[factoring]

Almost all of it. Occasionally it's easier to get what I need in person, but that's rare.

[piteous]

... Wow... I really can't imagine doing all your work on a screen.

[ He's trying to picture it. ]

It seems peaceful, if that means you can work at home.

[factoring]

I work out of an office, but it's more like a second home to me at this point.

It's enjoyable and interesting, so I have no complaints.

[piteous]

It's good that you liked your job!

A lot of people don't get to have that.

[factoring]

Do you?

[piteous]

I don't really have a job. I'm just a drifter.

[factoring]

It's almost like a job. Do you enjoy roaming and taking in the sights?

[piteous]

I do! But I don't do it aimlessly or anything. I had a goal, too.

[factoring]

Do you mind if I ask what it is?

[piteous]

[ There's a pause. ]

It was to find someone.

[factoring]

[ A thoughtful nod in response. ]

Did you ever manage to find them?

[piteous]

I did. The reunion wasn't great, though.

[factoring]

That's unfortunate. I've seen a few reunions go poorly myself.

[piteous]

Lucky you didn't need to be a part of one yourself.

[factoring]

Lucky for me.
