My Self-Summary

I'm Senku Ishigami.

My Future Plans

I want to find out as much as I can about the resort and how we got here. If there's a way back home, I was in the middle of some pretty important things when they brought me here.

Since it looks like we're stuck here for a while, I also want to explore Game 52. Hit me up if you want to help me experiment.

My Talents

I'm a scientist.

Favorite Books, Movies, Music, and Food

My favorite book is whatever is most useful to me right now. My favorite food is ramen. I don't have any particular favorites for the other two.

My Ideal Partner

I'd like a mutually beneficial relationship.

If you knew it was going to work, there'd be no point in testing it.

[And where's the fun in that?]

It took a few years, but we eventually found an example of the device that petrified humanity when we weren't even looking for it.

[How convenient that he has pasta now to serve as a visual aid. Senku pulls a noodle free and twists it with his hands into a reasonable approximation of the petrification device.]

I don't know if you have the same myths where you're from, but we called it the Medusa.

[If he's already been playing with his food, it's too late for manners. He sucks the remaining bit of sauce off his fingers.]

Good sauce.

[apothecrazy]

[ She's glad he gets it, though she didn't expect anything less from another science-minded individual. ]

A warning is only fair. [ She hadn't expected her first test to go the way it had. She hadn't expected it to work, true, but to boost the aphrodisiac's effects to such a point hadn't been expected. ]

Strange. [ A remark at the devices shape. ]

I'm not familiar with such a mythical creature, no. I don't think we have any such stories where I'm from.

[ Her father had told her some stories that he heard or read while he was in the West, but never anything like that. ]

[senku]

I can't replicate it with a strand of pasta, but the outside of it was smooth, even thought you could see a crazy amount of circuitry just under the surface.

[Its job done, the Linguidusa is unceremoniously picked up and dangled into his mouth to be eaten.]

In the stories, old lady Medusa had snakes for hair and turned men to stone when they looked at her. [So the grounds for comparison are obvious.]

That was the one thing this device had going for it; it took more than just staring at it to turn you to stone.

[apothecrazy]

I see.

[ Prior to her arrival here she would have needed an explanation of what exactly circuitry is, but she's since learned a bit more about those kinds of things. ]

That sounds useful. Do you think her snakes were poisonous? [ Of course, her thoughts go there. ]

How did it do it?

[senku]

We hadn't figured out the exact hows yet, but we've seen it in action and found out how to make it work. When it was activated, it gave off a petri-beam in a widening sphere with the medusa at the center.

[He demonstrates a widening circle with his hands. He's more occupied with talking than eating more food at the moment.]

And to activate it, you had to say a distance in meters and a time. In English. The distance became the radius, and the time was how long you had before it went off. So you could set enough time to high-tail it out of there if you needed to.

[apothecrazy]

I see.

[ The mention of another language causes her to pause. While she found it odd before that everyone could understand one another, it really seemed to sink in at that moment. How does that all work? ]

What language is English? As in the origin. [ She only knows Linese, a smattering of the neighboring dialects, and a little of a language from the West. She wouldn't be able to say which one unless she saw it written or heard someone speak it, however. ]

[senku]

English is considered a Germanic language. Indo-European if you're going even broader. In my time, well in my pre-Petrification time, it was used as a common language in science publications and discussion.

[Senku also has a moment of thinking how odd it is that they're discussing speaking words in a different language while possibly not even speaking the same language.]

Right now, I feel like I'm speaking Japanese. What about you?

[apothecrazy]

I see.

[ As places go by different names in her world she can't even begin to place where the places he mentions might be on a map. ]

Linese. However, I've been informed by a few people that where I came from would be considered China in their world.

[ The conversation is a nice distraction but she can't help but notice something of a familiar heat slowly building in her. ]

[senku]

If Lin is the same as China, Japan is to your north or northeast, depending on where you live. Any archipelagos up there in your world?

[The thought of constructing a map briefly crosses his mind, but he just takes another bite of food instead of using it to depict mainland China.]

[apothecrazy]

Li is the name of the country I'm from. [ She corrects. ]

I don't know. Maps aren't something that are readily available to everyone. [ And it's not like she bothered to look at them while she might have had access while in the Palace. ]

All I know is to the west the land turns arid and the summers are long and dry, and, to the north, it's mountainous and colder.
