Dialogue[edit]
- My professor gave me an unsolvable problem. No one has ever been able crack it. I'm thinking of just giving up.
- (If asura)
- Okay, but quitters usually have to settle for jobs washing beakers.
- What a horrifying thought. I shall return to the problem post haste.
- Glad to help.
- Probably best not to waste your valuable time.
- The fact that you agree just seals it. The professor should learn my time is too valuable to waste on impossible tasks.
- There you go.
- (If not asura)
- Even working on an unsolvable problem can help sharpen your mind.
- I never thought about it that way. It's always a pleasant surprise to stumble across a point of view that isn't mind-numbingly idiotic.
- Anytime.
- Sounds to me like further effort is just a waste of your time. (same as "Probably best not to...)
- Hang in there.
- I can't decide which college I should join. Dynamics, Statics, or Synergetics. I would undoubtedly excel in whichever I chose, if I could only chose.
- (If asura and of College of Statics)
- Statics. You could build and design lasting inventions.
- (If asura and of College of Dynamics)
- Dynamics. Everyone knows the best gizmo makers study there.
- (If asura and of College of Synergetics)
- Synergetics. Where better to research the true nature of the eternal alchemy.
- I agree with your logic. You've reinforced the conclusion I've just now reached. Thank you.
- Happy to assist.
- (If not asura)
- Why not join all of them?
- Join all of them? That's a brilliant idea! Surely no college would reject a prospect as brilliant as me.
- Glad I could help.
- I'm afraid the choice is yours to make.
- What's so special about dynamo-fusion collant devices? Everyone knows cross-liquid stratagems yield better results.
- (If asura)
- Biochemically speaking, dynamo-fusion is cleaner and less explosive.
- I suppose you have a point there. What are all those cross-liquid stagophiles thinking?
- Humility suits you.
- Dynamo-fusion is a fad. Once cooler heads prevail, it'll fall out of favor.
- Absolutely. What are those dynamo-fusionophiles thinking?
- When you're right, you're right.
- (If not asura)
- Of course they do.
- See? It's obvious even to a sub-genius.
- Thanks.
- How can you be so certain?
- Good point. Perhaps I am being too hasty in my judgment. I should reconsider the benefits of dynamo-fusion coolant devices.
- You can never be too careful.
- Who cares?
- I was contemplating joining the Inquest. I find their ambition and fortitude most admirable. Don't you agree?
- (If asura)
- Perhaps you should focus your future elsewhere. The Inquest is not to be idolized.
- Sheesh, you sound just like my parents.
- Heed their words.
- (If not asura)
- I know enough about the Inquest to know they're evil.
- Sheesh, you sound just like my parents.
- They sound like smart folks.
- Sorry, but I'm not a guidance counselor.
- The professors here think they know more than we do, but they're actually making it so we couldn't know more than they do. They're reining us in, throttling us intellectually.
- (If asura)
- Our minds are only as limited as we make them.
- Good point. I'm the only who can say how much my head will swell.
- There you go.
- You should listen to your professors. They represent the cream of the crop.
- (If not asura)
- Aren't you a bit young to be this paranoid?
- Paranoia isn't merely for the elderly. They just have more free time to dwell on the possibilities. But wait, if I refuse to let the professors limit my potential, that might make THEM paranoid!
- Now you're thinking.
- Someone as smart as you must have a good reason to be paranoid.
- That's what school is all about.
- I can't stand this school. Why should I allow them to dictate how I allocate my time? They're stifling my true genius!
- (If asura)
- Young genius need guidance if they hope to grow to be old geniuses.
- I did nearly get caught in an explosion with my last invention. My nose hairs still haven't grown back. Perhaps I'll take your words under advisement.
- You're already learning.
- (If not asura)
- Trust your elders. Their experience can help you.
- I admit my professors seem to know what they're talking about...most of the time.
- There you go.
- Sounds like you've still got a lot to learn.
- I've been working on a blueprint for a limitless energy capacitor, but I can't determine which material would be best for reinforcing the intake valve. Can you offer any helpful insight?
- (If asura)
- You don't need an intake valve. Energy is created inside the capacitor.
- That's...right. Did I say "intake valve"? I meant "release valve". I know just what to do. You've helped me reach the only logical conclusion.
- Excelsior.
- Maybe if you made two intake valves, it would spread the stress.
- Of course. When in doubt, spread it out. A second intake valve is precisely the answer I was working toward. I appreciate your helping me to reach a foregone conclusion.
- Excelsior.
- (If not asura)
- You seem like you know what you're doing.
- In the absence of answers I will accept compliments. Thank you.
- You're welcome.
- I may need to think about it some more.
- I created designs for my own golem creation, but I can't decide where to start the actual construction. The head? Feet? Arms? Where does one begin?
- (If asura)
- Simple. Start with the feet and work your way up.
- The feet! My thinking precisely. I was just making sure you knew. If this were a test, you would've passed with top marks.
- Thanks for the confidence boost.
- Elementary. Start with the head and work your way down.
- That's completely counter-intuitive. But brilliant. Where the head goes the feet will follow. I'll begin work from the top-down immediately.
- I thought you'd see things that way.
- (If not asura)
- What do you think?
- You're right I should trust my own instincts. Surely, the feet would be a good starting place, and from there I can work my way up.
- Sounds like a wise decision.
- I'm sure the answer will come to you.
