Dago frowned. He returned to the contacts page and showed her the screen and the contact ‘Natali’ with a slightly frustrated look on his face. He didn’t think he broke it or anything, he just knew he fucked something up.
“Alright, call me then,” he said, pulling the phone back to face him.
This part was easy, green button. Right? Or was it the red button? Oh well, he’d try green button first and if that didn’t work, the red button. He was really kind of frustrated at this point, but as soon as Natalie left, he’d just keep the damn thing in his pocket and never fiddle with it again, unless someone called. And then he’d be kind of screwed.
This was the exact reason he’d never had a mobile phone before. He never needed one and when he did, he just made do without one. He wasn’t bad at memorizing numbers, so using a pay phone wasn’t so difficult.

Natalie snatched Dago's phone and pressed a few buttons before handing it back to him. Her name was back to being spelled correctly with an 'e' at the end; that was what she needed to correct. Natalie wasn't quite sure that she could trust Dago with a cell phone, but it was the best way of communication, she supposed.
She took her own phone and pressed a few buttons onto it as well and suddenly, Dago's cell phone began buzzing and ringing. "Now," Natalie began. "Answer it." Natalie really hoped that Dago would be able to do something so simple as to answer a freaking cell phone call. It wasn't hard, after all! You just pressed the green button and then it would answer, and when you wanted to hang up, you pressed the red button.
Natalie really didn't see how anyone could possible get it wrong. It was, after all, so simple to her.

Dago bit his tongue to keep from laughing. Man, Natalie was a real bruiser, he guessed. He made a mental note not to ever physically mess with her and not to get on her bad side. He could tell that he was annoying her, but there wasn’t much he could do about it. She’s the one who gave him a damn phone, it wasn’t his idea. He shook his head and pressed the green button. He put the phone up to his ear to see if he could hear anything. He smiled at her.
“All good, right?” he said, pulling the phone away from his ear and pressing the red button. Apparently it hung up. Well, that was a fun tutorial, now when do we start the real game, thought Dago.
“I’ve got it,” he said, noting that she interrogated him about saying he ‘thought’ he got it earlier.

"Good," Natalie said. "I'm going to go now. Remember to keep your phone with you all the time, and also remember what I've told you about being a vampire." She turned to leave. She had to go speak with Lilith now.
Today had been an eventful day for certain, but Natalie had a feeling that everything would turn out for better. It always did, right? Lilith had a plan, and with this new power, Natalie was certain that they could achieve their goals.
Natalie wasn't so much concerned with other people being happy and not suffering as she was about Lilith being happy. After all, Lilith did care about people and was genuinely good person, and most importantly, she had rescued Natalie from an eternity of being deep fried.
"Is there anything else you need to know?" Natalie asked, suddenly turning around. Well, she might as well ask instead of just leaving right away.

Dago nodded, rolling his eyes a bit. Yes, mother, he thought in the back of his head, though he knew better than to say it to her face. He mutely stuck his phone in his pocket, assuming that it would be transported with him along with his clothes to the mortal plane. He didn’t know how that worked; he assumed it would be like a portal, though who the hell knew down here?
“No, I understand,” he said mentally checking off things he was supposed to do.
No holy things or places, don’t go out for a tan, stalk your prey, make sure they can’t kill you, avoid rice like the plague, and don’t kill people. Oh and don’t tell people that you’re a blood-sucking demon from hell. Got it. He nodded to emphasize the point.
