i'm not really sure to be honest! but i guess it's something like
if you're wearing an outfit you think you look cute in, you'd want to show it off to your friends, right?
so i guess it's a way of doing that but with your phone
and it's probably nice to get a big response to them, even if it's just someone saying you look nice

[nohproblem]

Should I try one right now?

[torya]

oh sure!
if you want to, i mean
if you do, you can go ahead and send me one

[nohproblem]

[Attached: Photo of Kokoro from about the nose up, because she got the angle wrong.]

A selfie!

[torya]

... GOODNESS GRACIOUS WAS THERE AN ATTEMPT

not bad!
maybe you could try it again a little further away
then you can get your whole face in the picture

[nohproblem]

[Attached: Photo actually successfully containing all of Kokoro's face.]

A whole face selfie!

[torya]

[ SHE KNEW YOU COULD DO IT ]

much better!
now you've got the hang of it you can send all kinds of them

[ .... sincerely hoping kokoro never finds out how to make a duckface ]

[nohproblem]

[Attached: Photo of Kokoro making a 'kira~☆' pose. Still blankly staring into a middle distance, of course.]

Maybe sharing pictures makes you feel good about how you look?

[torya]

[ ... what has she started ]

maybe!! i guess it wouldn't hurt
you must need some confidence to be able to just take photos and post them like that
i'd get too nervous ehe
like, what i got a really bad angle and i looked terrible?

[nohproblem]

[Attached: Photo of Kokoro giving a thumbs up]

I believe that you can do it!

[torya]

then i'll have to give it a shot~

[ attached; a photo of sonico beaming at the camera and giving a little wave. hello friend! ]

[nohproblem]

[Attached: Photo of Kokoro using her fingers to push up the corners of her mouth in a faux-smile.]

You look good today!

[torya]

[ KOKORO HONEY how are you so adorable goodness gracious

please appreciate the attached photo of Sonico giving the 'peace!' v-sign with her free hand ]

thank you!!
you look cute today too kokoro-chan

[nohproblem]

[Attached: Photo of Kokoro scratching her head awkwardly.]

I still can't do a real smile, though.

[torya]

[ oh gosh kokoro honey ]

that's fine! ^-^ i think as long as you have a way of letting people know you're happy, that's more than enough
but if it's really bothering you, maybe you could practice some more?
oh maybe with selfies?

[ she could say that she didn't yelp and drop her phone the instant she opened this photo but that would make her a filthy liar

JESUS ]

you don't have to force yourself though!!
if it's not working, forcing yourself to do it won't do any good

[nohproblem]

[Attached: SHRUG]

I guess that's just how it is.

[torya]

maybe
does it really bother you though?
smiles and everything.

[nohproblem]

The more I rely on my masks, the more trouble there will be if I lose one again. I want to be able to get along without using them at all.

[torya]

that's right
well you can keep practicing with me, if you like!
the more you practice the better you'll get
and once you're a little more confident, you can show other people, too
