Pairing: General Arashi Friendship
Summary: The iOS 9 update arrived, what happens when Arashi updates their phones?
A/N: This is a sequel to the fic 'Corners of the world'. Please read that first to get a background of the story.
Nino was the first to update. He was a geek and an Apple fan after all. He has stayed up all night to watch the keynote address, streaming it from his macbook pro. Despite the fact that he loved new features and new devices, he was a stingy man, and stingy guys don't buy a new phone every year. In fact, he's still using his iPhone 4s from goodness knows how many years ago. It still served him fine, though he's highly tempted to get a new device just so that he could play all the tantalizing new games on the app store that require newer phones.
He asked the rest if they have updated the next day.
Ohno was the first to reply.
O: Woah. What happened Nino?
N: ?
O: MY PHONE
N: ?
O: IT LOOKS DIFFERENT. After I did what you told me to!
N: Of course it's different you baka. It's a new iOS
O: I've updated before but it's never so different...
N: Because it's a new version you stupid. It's completely revamped.
O: Oh. Now where did my music go?
N: It's there. Just go to the settings and turn off the Apple music thingy if you don't like it.
O: Oh...
O: What's Apple music?
Nino just rolled his eyes as he continued looking at his bank account and the iPhone prices.
Sho was the next to reply.
S: No. I'm busy.
N: You're always busy.
S: I need to update it on a day when I'm free.
N: Uhuh
S: I think next weekend is good...
S: Or maybe next Friday.
S: Then I have the weekend to fix it in case anything goes wrong.
S: Can't afford having a bricked phone when I'm working you know.
Nino tried hard to think of something snarky to say... but he couldn't argue with Sho's logic. He too, absolutely couldn't live without his phone, much less Sho, who actually has to use his phone for proper work purposes.
J: Nope. I'm just going to get the 6S plus.
N: Gold?
J: You got it!
N: Like your current one no?
J: Yup my current one's gold too.
J: Love the gold. Then I'll just trade in my old phone. So why bother right?
N: Don't forget to back up your phone... and tell me how the new phone goes ok?
J: Sure. You getting yours yet?
N: Idk. I'm still...
J: For gods sake just buy it already
N: undecided
J: Just upgrade that freaking damn ancient dinosaur already
J: Aren't you always complaining that it's hanging up and there's not enough space?
N: But...
J: Just buy it already. Didn't you just win tons of prize money from the competition last month?
N: but I'm poor
J: No you're not
N: I am!
J: Sheesh whatever.
A: NINO HELP
N: What's up aibaby?
A: HELP
N: Yeah what?
A: HELP ME!!!

N: What?
A: My phone! IT DIED

A: My phone omg what am I supposed to do?
N: Dude you have to tell me what happened
A: I went to update
N: Uhuh. The update failed?
A: I don't know! But now it's showing a music note logo and a cable gosh what am I supposed to do!
N: Erm. I think you have to plug it into iTunes. Connect it to your computer.
A: OH WHAT HAPPENED?
N: Probably something got screwed up during the update
A: OMG WAS IT MY FAULT? I didn't do anything!!!
N: Erm... these things... it just happens.
N: I hope you backed up your data
A: Eh? What?
A: Backup?
N: Like connect it to your comp, or iCloud?
A: Eh? I don't think so?
N: ....
N: What did iTunes say
A: It asks if I want a factory reset? EHHHHHHHHHHH?
A: *screenshot of iTunes*
N: Oh... just hit yes. You can restore it from the back up too... just pick the most recent back up.
A: My dataaaaaaaaaa!
N: *shrugs*
S: That's why it's important to back up
S: Esp before updating
N: Yes teacher Sakurai
J: Are you planning to get a new phone Aiba?
A: Me?
J: Yes I said Aiba didn't I?
A: Yes you did...
A: Eh no? I think not.
J: What's your phone again?
A: It's a 5s
J: Oh

J: Huh?
N: Isn't your phone a 6 already?
J: Yes why?
N: And you're getting a new one?
J: Uhuh. Why not?
N: Arghs you're rich
J: I want to 6s plus this time, the bigger screen
N: How about if you...
J: What?
N: Don't trade it in, sell it to me instead!
J: The phone?
N: Yes!
J: Ermm...
J: You have to match the trade in offer though.
J: And pay for the shipping.
N: How much?
J: USD 250
N: Hmm... how much is the shipping?
J: Idk.
J: It's still way cheaper than a new one though
N: Yeah, way cheaper
J: So deal?
N: Deal.
N: As long as the shipping isn't over the roof
J: Ok, I'll check on it and let you know
N: Wait, your phone isn't locked right?
J: Huh?
N: To any network
J: No it's not
N: Oh great!
J: Ok, then I'll go check on the shipping and let you know
N: Cool!
N: Now I'll have a new phone

Date: 2015-10-12 02:38 pm (UTC)You have a niche coolohoh for making fics about mundane things but with the 5 guys. Who knows, that might actually be how they are? (kyaaaaaaa~)
no subject
Date: 2015-10-13 06:46 pm (UTC)Oh, they use iPhones alright. In last year's Hawaii blast anshi i think? where they each had their own free time... they all used iPhones... with same iPhone covers, only in each of their own covers. makes me wonder if the production gave them the phones but it seems not...
in some new year SP where they filmed jun in the greenroom he was using an iPhone.
And we know Sho was wearing the Apple Watch...
And yes they do chat in group messages! They mentioned that in shows before... So yes, I like writing fics that seems like it almost could have happened hahaha

Date: 2015-10-13 11:46 pm (UTC)and I think the Shiyagare staff gave them the iPhone 5 bec the cases are TOO coordinated. Or maybe it's just the cases...
Oooh! Don't know about the other 3 but I agree with Matsujun having an iPhone. I suddenly remember him holding an iPhone during Aiba's dokkiri (elevator part).
AND...Riida was holding an iPhone 4S in Digitalian, behind the scenes. Ahhh! I can imagine an iMessage group too. Haha!
Good morning <3 (although probably no longer good morning when you check this haha!)
no subject
Date: 2015-10-14 05:26 am (UTC)That's what I suspected too, but then Sho was referring to his schedule from there and all...
But the other random spotting of them using iPhones is much better proof :)
They mentioned before that they were using an app... Line seems like a possibility, considering it's popularity in Japan - they have TV participation stuff for the audience using Line and stuff. I don't really remember where they said that though... some show... (how helpful hahaha).
Ah yes... thinking about how Ohno recognized the message send tone from Line when they had the quiz with sekaowa, it's a high possibility.
It was shiyagare when sho wore the apple watch. I don't remember which though.
