"Essentially, yes. I think. Hikaru can explain that part better," he offers automatically, apparently already planning on introduce them soon regardless.

"You can contact anyone here with it from far away... You can use writing, your voice, or— you see the little circular lens, right there?" He takes his own phone out to demonstrate, pointing to the front-facing camera. "That thing looks at you as if it were the other person's eyes, so whatever you point that at, they can see. So if you point it at yourself while you talk, they can see you even from afar."

Yeah, Hikaru can probably explain all these parts better. That sounds much creepier than it needs to, your highness.
