--es. Yes, I do want voice-to-text, that'll probably be less difficult and I won't accidentally hit the wrong button next time.

Okay, I reckon it's stopped. It's not flashing the little screen over and over. I don't even know what I hit. Er, sorry, I don't really know how to delete those other ones. I'm not really used to computers. Never really got to play around much with computers to start with and where I usually live, they don't even work.

Awfully small, aren't they? I didn't even know they could be made this small.

Anyway, what I was trying to say is my name is Harry Potter. I'm a wizard, from the same world as Remus Lupin. A complete inability to do a basic introduction without embarrassing myself aside, I was fighting in a war against dark wizards before I was brought here. I understand that the stakes are even higher with this one, and as such, I want to know where someone like me might be needed most and who here I could possibly learn from to help fight even better.

I'm alright enough at magic, particularly where Defense Against the dark arts is concerned, have loads of experience dueling on a life or death basis, and I'm fairly good at sneaking about when necessary. I also have some experience teaching defense magic, though I don't know how useful that'll be if people here don't have the same type of magic, and you'd have a better teacher in Remus anyway. I'm really not sure how everything works here, so if you have any questions about what I can do to help me figure out where I'd be best suited, feel free to ask. I could use the help figuring out where I'm needed most.

Oh..um, no, she isn't, but she was for a little while. She was a very good friend of mine, and she used to go on about you quite a lot. Harry Potter, the boy who lived, things like that.

I'm sorry to get your hopes up. I really miss her. Are you coping well here?

Oh. Well, that's...extremely disappointing, actually.

And I'm doing alright enough, I s'pose. I do have some friends and loved ones from home, at least, but I really wish some more of my friends were awake, though, like Luna.

I know, I'm really sorry. She was one of the sweetest and most unique people I knew on the ship, and that's saying something.

It looks like you were having a bit of trouble on this earlier though. That surprised me: I thought this sort of technology was somewhat available in your world.

Oh, it is, but wizards can't really use it. Most electronics start going all funny around magic.

And the last I've really played around with any sort of computer was years ago, and not often. I wasn't really allowed near my cousin's.

Does it really? I wonder why that is...

Oh, I see! You at least had it though, where I'm from technology like that would have been unheard of.

Yes, it's been pointed out to me that I'm worse at this than people from the relative middle ages.

It's nothing to be ashamed of! It just goes to show anyone can either fumble with this, and then learn it very quickly!

Has it been ok for you? I know things must be difficult, adjusting here and all. Do you need help with anything?

I'll be fine, but thank you for asking.

If you say so.

If you need anything, just let me know. Luna spoke very highly of you, and I'll do what I can to help you deal with life on the ship.
