currently looking for someone familiar with weaponry and comms tech
namely monomolecular films or something similar
and a connection from this communication system to a pair of sunglasses which may already have the interface installed

[What. babby's first network post and no hi? no thanks? sheesh.

Also, be aware that he's using voice-to-text and our lovely Siri may fuck it up because we all know how dictation tech goes.]

[oh jeez]

the film is something i use on my weapon

let's do a little exercise
what do you think sunglasses may be

[foxtouched]

[ What she thinks? Hm. She replies after a few minutes. ]

Literally; one in my world would assume it means
glasses made using sunlight.
or glass-mirrors that can contain sunlight.
but I'm assuming I'm not right.
Calling someone "Master" here seems to be taken badly, after all,
As compared to my world.

[prizeneck]

so
if you exclude those
sunlight as a tool and sunlight as something to contain

what else is there

how is master taken badly
thought it would give them some sort of ego trip

[foxtouched]

I'm not sure, for it is an honorific
Maybe I'm translating it badly?
They all insist not to, for it has connotations
But no one will tell me what those are.

As for your question...
Logically, glass that shields against sunlight
But glass would only amplify it, wouldn't it?

[prizeneck]

the only meanings from the top of my head are either referring to teachers or owners of slaves
what kind of honorific

if it's clear it would

[foxtouched]

In human tongue, it's "-sama".
At least, the humans from the lands I know of.
My people use it, too.

So... the glass is not clear?
Then is it opaque?

[prizeneck]

that's a japanese honorific
it's dated but
not sure why people would take it too bad [bless him]

it's tinted

[foxtouched]

So I've been told... but it's common in speech around me.
Well, perhaps, not here.

Tinted glass, though.

So you can see through them? And the sunlight cannot pass it?

[prizeneck]

not entirely
just not enough to harm your eyes

see
you got there on your own

[foxtouched]

You helped!
I am grateful for your patience!
There are many things I have not understood here,
But I am trying to learn!

Now I am curious about what "sunglasses" look like!

[prizeneck]

take it you're from somewhere a bit more traditional

pretty sure you've seen people wearing them here
dark glass on people's faces

[foxtouched]

Ah, that is so.
Glasses are not common where I am from

I know they help vision...
But you mentioned communicating?

[prizeneck]

mine are special
i'd like for them to link to this gadget we use to communicate
so i don't have to keep track of the two
