To sign "kon", you will fingerspell the letters K, O, and N. First, form the letter "K" by pointing your index and middle fingers up, with your thumb resting between them. Next, transition to the letter "O" by curving all your fingers so their tips touch the tip of your thumb. Finally, form the letter "N" by folding your index and middle fingers over your thumb, keeping your ring and pinky fingers tucked into your palm.
To sign this, you would sign 'HIS NAME', and then smoothly fingerspell K-O-N.
Sign the fingerspelled word K-O-N, followed by the signs for 'COME' and 'LATER'.
Sign 'I NEED TALK', and then fingerspell K-O-N to specify who you are talking about.

No, you should maintain eye contact with the person you are signing to. It can be tempting to watch your own hand as a beginner, but practicing without looking builds essential muscle memory.
From the "O" handshape, simply drop your ring and pinky fingers into your palm while sliding your index and middle fingers over your thumb to form the "N".
A very slight outward movement is natural, but try to avoid bouncing your hand up and down with each letter, as this makes the fingerspelling difficult for the receiver to read.
