Your keyboard has more to say.
A small screen, a knob and a glowing key between your keyboard and your computer. Type plain and it comes out styled. Unplug it and it keeps what you write.
Type plain. It comes out styled.
Turn the knob to a style and type as you always do. Every key arrives at the computer already in that style: ๐๐จ๐ฅ๐, ๐๐๐๐๐๐๐, sแดแดสส แดแดแดs, ๐๐๐๐ and the rest of YayText's shelf. It works in every app, because to the computer the Borb is a keyboard.
Every emoji. One knob.
The knob walks a strip of every emoji there is, drawn in colour from the card. Press the key and the one under the pointer goes to the computer. Faces and Ransom Note are two more pages built the same way.
Unplug it. Keep typing.
The Borb runs on its battery and keeps what you write on its card. Plug it into any computer later and it types the lot back out. Keep Typing Or Else is the same page with the stakes turned up.
A screen, a knob, a key. Enough.
Snake on the knob. Dice on the key. A clock that is only a clock. The pages are small programs on the card, and the card is yours: write one in an afternoon and it shows up in the menu.
Three pages of a very small screen.
