[fortunately Mikleo doesn't need much handling; he's half-hiding himself behind Sorey's shoulder, kind of embarrassed at ALL THIS EMOTION, though he also ducks his head in a visible nod. feelings! how do you deal with them.]
It shouldn't be too hard.
It shouldn't be too hard.
[Honestly it's Dirk here who needs the handling of How To People. He feels like Sorey is better equipped to do this for Mikleo, so he is considering a smooth exit stage left.]
Cool. I'll leave you two to... [Hm no.] ..Do whatever. Let me know.
And have fun with the cameras.
[Okay not that smooth.]

Wait, wait! We have to do the selfies!
[Before Dirk can escape he puts his arm around Dirk's shoulder!!! And drags Mikleo with him sorry Mikleo.
Someone else is going to have to take the selfie because he has Mikleo in one arm and Dirk in the other.]

Sorey--!
[he sounds more surprised than mad, because you know what? Holy shit. Holy shit, Dirk is using science to make their dreams come true. This should absolutely be commemorated in a suitable way.
He holds up the new camera to take the friendship selfie with. It's not very ironic, but it is full of feelings.]

So don't talk too much.
[he's still a good cooling pad, at least...also a little hypocritical, since he starts muttering half under his breath]
She's lucky he's a prince, I guess. An ordinary sailor would be awfully hard to track down on land ifs he does find a way to get there.

Of course it would be! If cameras are popular in more scienticially advanced worlds, then it makes sense they'd be used as a form of personal and social documentation. They're much faster and easier to use than anything we're used to, aren't they?

[poking him in the side when he hears the muttering, but because he can't pass up having a conversation about what they're watching he mumbles back]
It wouldn't have been that hard. She could just find the name of the ship and see if there was a list of the sailors who were on board.

[bops his hand halfheartedly; they're too woozy for a proper ticklefight]
That depends on how good the recordkeeping is, though, doesn't it? What if there isn't a registry? What if he has a common name? That's a problem.
[he's so serious]

[Dirk nods because THIS IS IN FACT HIS JAM.] Selfies were extensively used in the early 21st century through media-sharing mediums similar to our communications network. Humans found ways to express themselves and their relations to others by choices in the images they shared.
But then if a photo doesn't contain yourself directly, is it still a selfie? Or is 'selfie' more of an umbrella term referring to photos taken for personal and social consumption rather than public purposes?
Those might be obstacles, but it's nothing she can't overcome. If he was a sailor on a ship who needed to be paid for the work he did, then there would be some record of him whether it was physical or mental. Just asking around might be enough to get her the information she needs too.
Besides, it's a love story, she'd find him no matter what.
[Sorey is just as serious. LOVE ALWAYS FINDS A WAY!!]

You're so optimistic.
[...cue Triton showing up in Ariel's underwater hoard and wrecking it...Mikleo shifts back from the screen a little]
I'm...glad Gramps never got that mad.

[clutches at Sorey's arm tightly as that scene ends, wordless.]
[there are tears and bad decisions happening ]
I don't like this.
I don't like this.
S-Sorey, calm down!
