the curious happenstance of pedro pascal and din djarin [The Mandalorian]

Absolutely necessary (with a wink).

He was restless. There was no doubt about that. As soon as Pedro left the apartment, Din was pacing. If he wasn't pacing, he was jiggling his knees on the couch. If he wasn't doing that, he'd be clicking his pen.

Which was why he felt incredible relief when Pedro finally came home with a phone.

"Here," the actor slid the rectangular device over to him. Din immediately grabbed it.

"I haven't set it up yet. You'll probably want to do that all yourself."

He pressed the button which he understood to be the 'on' button, and the device lit up.

He did what the words on the screen instructed, with help from Pedro - noting with fascination the many many languages on the first page - until the device was finally set up.

Pedro then assisted him in setting up his password properly, and getting some 'applications' that he deemed "absolutely necessary" (with a wink).

"And you're done. You can probably work out the rest on your own."

Din stared at the new home page of his device. It was pleasant to look at, if a bit bright.

("You can turn down the brightness."

"No, that's fine.")

The first order of business: search for as many things as possible.

Din's Notes: 

politics: it's not uncommon for planets to have a political party system, but earth's might work differently. I should invest time in this area of research.

- at least over a hundred-fifty separate countries + communities

- USA is a global superpower. their primary parties consist of the democrats and the republicans - however, it used to be the democratic-republicans and the federalists, before the federalist party was disbanded.

- global superpowers consist of: usa/america, russia, china, india, brazil, the european union (great britain?)

- the current president of the usa - which was voted in - is donald trump, however he is currently in the process of being impeached... sounds like the right decision

most countries are a democracy. however, there are some monarchies, as well as dictatorships. see north korea

Holidays and customs: christmas is a tradition that consists of giving gifts on the 25th of the last month. it seems I came to this dimension mere days after this holiday. the holiday originates from the religion of christianity. I should invest time into researching religions at a later date.
