Well... I've never been asked to do something like that before. I'd have to see it before I told you.
[he felt a little awkward just saying yes, hence the caution and wanting to see what he was dealing with. But generating a small amount of electricity was certainly easier than the opposite, and he felt confident enough to at least give a maybe.]
[probably not a bad idea. Lord knows he could take some time for that soon. But he comes a little bit after an hour, like he promised, and knocks on the door.
[He raises his voice faintly to say it. Either it's someone he knows, and they're welcome here, or it's someone he'll have to punch in the face. Either way he's finishing this damn sock first.]
[Steve nods to where the iPod is on the table with its headphones wrapped around it. It's a clean little thing, with almost no outward signs of wear although it's a couple years old now.]
That's what I was talking about. It's still got a charge, you can turn it on if you want.
[It is definitely an apple. Steve ties off the final stitch and snaps the thread, tossing the sock back into a nearby laundry basket. The needle he adds back to a small sewing kit, which gets temporarily pushed aside.]
Port in the bottom. Here-- [He takes it back briefly, so he can point out the spot.]
[Mako looks at the port, and frowns. Well, he could probably direct lightning there. It looked relatively easy enough, as long as he didn't generate a lot of lightning.]
I think I can help you out with this.
You just need lightning directed there, nothing special or crazy inside of this, right? Because I don't have that much control to do any zigs or zags once it leaves.

Who is Mako to argue against that? He's had to do it enough time for him and his brother, and he knows how annoying it is to start and stop.]

[it looked like... a rectangle. With a circle.
Though, on the sides, he could see ports and a few extra buttons. But none of them were really intuitive to him as he flipped it over in his hand]
Wait... this is a phone?

[he indicates which button to press with a series of creative interpretive gestures. Like a bro.]

Which immediately gets an apple? is that an apple? it looks like an apple. to appear.]
This looks pretty advanced, to me.
So where does it charge from...?

That should do it. But if you wanna try, maybe outside's better than in here.
