( wanda doesn't think she could properly encapsulate what all 'technology' stands for in her more modern world. the conveniences of every day life, exacerbated by their lack here. )

You remember the television I showed you? There are these — big theaters. You can go to them to watch movies. The chairs are comfortable, there's air conditioning—cool air that keeps being pushed in through vents, and you sit in the dark to watch people acting.

( a small comfort that she'd found while in america. she was just one more of many, and she could get lost in someone else's life. )

There's no real mindless distraction here in Abraxas. Maybe in the Cities, but we have to make our own entertainment in Solvunn.

( quite literally, too. what with wanda hexing a mirror to become a tv. )
