... No, I don't think so. Would you like to try?

[ She hands Charles the remote. ]

You can press this button to select a random video.

[riverbeans]

Ohhhh.

[wonders of technology... he is simply a ye olde who has never seen this before.

presses a button and gets this video yaywon once linked

...]

Uh... well, what do you think?

[applebough]

[ Yuri just stares at the screen until Charles actually says something.

The state of being wet is if something is covered or saturated with water. Therefore, the fish are wet. If one asks if water itself is wet, then yes, water is wet, because it's composed of the very thing that makes you wet in the first place.

[ i hope someone murders bc of this ]

[riverbeans]

...

Well, I see you've got an opinion on this.

[help]

My old coworker asked me that sort of question a long time when we were passing the time.

[riverbeans]

[HELLO he laughs]

Really? Talk about a coincidence. Guess it's a universally deep—or just controversial—question, huh? Did he argue with you on it?

[applebough]

No, but he thought he could stump me with such a question.

[ The memory of it makes her laugh a little. ]

Thinking about it for too long would give me a headache, so that's the answer that I went with.

[riverbeans]

Smart. Can't say I'm the scholarly type, so thinking about it too long would do the same to me... Mind if I steal your answer if anyone asks me in the future?

[applebough]

Of course. By all means.

[ Yuri smiles. ]

I had to study for some things, so if I can help, I'd want to.

[riverbeans]

Heh, I'll keep that in mind. What else have you studied?

[applebough]

Just some general education in school. I mostly had to memorize all the protocols from my first job by memory.

Oh, but I do have random trivia, I guess...

[riverbeans]

Hit me. I like random trivia.

[applebough]

[ hmmm... ]

Vodka is made from potatoes.

[riverbeans]

[!]

Really? I wouldn't have guessed.

[applebough]

[ Yuri nods. ]

Potatoes are generally a very important staple crop... I'm guessing it is in your home world too?

[riverbeans]

Yeah, definitely. That makes sense, actually—potatoes are pretty versatile, huh?

[applebough]

Yes, like corn. They're also used in toilet paper, fireworks, and hand soap.

[riverbeans]

[blinks]

Wait, even fireworks? How?

[applebough]

The corn helps the fireworks burn properly when ignited.

That said, I'm sure someone could make a makeshift explosive if they knew how...

[riverbeans]

... Now that you've said it, I bet that's going to happen at some point. We already have garlic bombs, so why not?

[applebough]

Don't those just explode regarding the smell? It's not an actual explosive, is it?

[riverbeans]

Pretty sure it's not, but it might plant the idea in people's heads now.

[applebough]

... I hope that everything comes to intervene in their efforts of making bombs.

[ She's not even sure how many people are smart enough to actually make bombs. ]

[riverbeans]

[he laughs.]

It's gotta be hard being the responsible one, Yuri.

[applebough]

I can't just ignore it either... I know my conscience won't allow me to do so. There are definitely some people that I don't think I can ever keep in line though... like Ms. Baiken.
