15: The Flame Pillar Wants Some Fuck

Ubuyashiki was stun to silence. Something to simplify communication like that was incredible! You didn't have to wait days, or weeks, or months, or possible years to hear back from another person?

"So, with your phone, communication is instantaneous?" Ubuyashiki ponders.

"Yep! You don't have to wait to hear back! Each phone is given a..." You had to pause to count, "10 digit number, each one is unique. We just call it a phone number, so we can dial the number, and with their number, we can call whoever we want!"

You grin before turning to look at Ubuyashiki, "You can tell your Pillars that! Proof that I'm from the Motha-Fuckin' future!"

Ubuyashiki had to admit, if he just was even a little bit skeptical then, he definitely believed you now.

"Master?" Shinobu speaks up, "Did she explain what that was?"

Ubuyashiki nods: "Yes. A phone's primary use is instant communication, although it may also be used for entertainment, education, and work. They have telephones in America as of now. But the model that (Y/n) has is not created until the year 2007. But even so, her phone is an upgraded version from the year 2019."

You smugly show them your phone once again when they were stun into silence.

Tanjiro couldn't believe it! He just thought your phone was for music and taking pictures, but it served more functions, too?! No wonder you loved it so much! It made everything so convenient!

"Oh!" Mitsuri jumps, "I think I've heard about telephones! In westernized culture, people use it to speak to each other as if they were right next to each other! It's so cool!"

"The year 2007...that's way into the future! How exciting!" Kyojuro awed.

"Something as flamboyant as that, I have no doubt that this girl is from the flamboyant future! I'm talking max flamboyance!" Uzui grins.

Everyone else didn't speak, too stubborn to voice they believed you now as well. You took this time to stuff the phone back in your bra before you button your uniform back up.

"(Y/n), I do have another question regarding what you had said earlier." Ubuyashiki speaks.

You look back at him, confused: "...About masturbation?"

"What? No, not about masturbating. You said you've seen all of this happen and more from a manga book. Could you please explain what you meant by that?"

You tense up. You did say that, didn't you?

"I..." You look down at your feet, "...I would actually prefer if we talk about this in private. You can have one Pillar you trust to not say anything about it attend. But trust me when I say, the information I have can't be told to just anyone. I haven't even told Tanjiro."

Ubuyashiki had to think about it.

He could already tell from when he first heard your voice, that you tend to be facetious by instinct and habit. Like you really couldn't help it, but you don't mean to be dismissive about the severity of the situation, it was just your personality.

You wouldn't be able to explain that your generations' coping mechanism was to make jokes about dying when everyone in your world was literally dying. He wouldn't get it, that Boomer.

He thought that introducing something as big as the invention of the phone, you wouldn't have done it so casually. But you didn't give a second thought to show everyone and explain to him about it.

Ubuyashiki likes to believe he is a good judge of character. And hearing you talk, let him know you were immature at the wrong times. But it also let him know that you were serious in times that mattered to you; it was so easy for you to change your attitude from a playful one, to a serious one in a blink of an eye.
