Aurelia! I just sent you email. I know I had your address, because I checked it in gmail a week ago, but now gmail seems to have eaten it. Please resend it?
Sir? I think you have a problem with your brain being missing.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!
So, anyway, onto nicer things, like a bluetooth vibrator.
Is someone hinting at Christmas presents?

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
When you say "tights" do you mean opaque tights or hose?
I'm dancing that fine line right now. I'm wearing really thick hose, I think. I should be wearing really thick tights. Even medium or thin tights would be an improvement.
We like to reward behavior like that.
With what? What do you have for me? I can be bought.
Wait, what do you need me to whitefont? This week's bruising? Nah, not going to happen. I still haven't typed hymen in blackfont.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.

Opaque tights. Hose are, well, hose.

I mean, it doesn't have to look pretty to do it's job, right? i mean, look at what it's substituting for!
Upgrade! Form and function! Improving on nature! We likes pretty things, we do.
Is someone hinting at Christmas presents?
Wait -- when I say we like pretty things, I mean we as in "all of we," "the world," "Buffistas." Just sharing, you know, tech and sex.
Was there a price on that thing?

Shit's all sorts of different now.
Opaque tights. Hose are, well, hose.
Here, but ita grew up a lot in England where tights are hose and hose are worn by men in tunics.

I gotta ask -- why do people care what color it is?
Do you mean bluetooth? That's wireless technology, not, alas, an actual color reference. Which kind of annoys me, because I think it ought to have something to do with blue if it's going to make me think about blue!
Wait, what do you need me to whitefont? This week's bruising?
No, no, bruise away. It was you and bon bon, trading that story back and forth, that was... shuddery.

Bluetooth -- about the name:
The system is named after a Danish king Harald Blåtand (Harold Bluetooth in English), King of Denmark and Norway from 935 and 936 respectively, to 940 known for his unification of previously warring tribes from Denmark (including Skåne, present-day Sweden, where the Bluetooth technology was invented) and Norway. Bluetooth likewise was intended to unify different technologies like computers and mobile phones. The Bluetooth logo merges the Nordic runes analogous to the modern Latin H and B. This is the official story; however, the actual Harald Blåtand that was referred to in naming Bluetooth was most probably the liberal interpretation given to him in The Long Ships by Frans Gunnar Bengtsson, a Swedish best-selling Viking-inspired novel.
