Yeah. I might want your help, too, later, 'cause something Fujioka mentioned yesterday could possibly affect how costly magic is is bringing things and people with me into time stop.

Permalink

I did say we!

Permalink

—so you did. I guess I just assumed—

Permalink

I will help you test your MAGICAL POWERS, I am not yet over how we have magical powers!

Permalink

...you're so cute. I want to kiss you again. I think I want that all the time, actually, but still.

Permalink

We can do that too. In between playing with our MAGICAL POWERS.

Permalink

No, we can also do that while playing with them, I wanna see if spending time in stopped time costs more magic if I bring someone with so we'll have all this extra time to kill...

Permalink

Okay, I'm convinced. As long as we don't get too carried away and wind up overstaying our intended stopped time.

Permalink

We'll be good and set an alarm. But we'll need to repeat the experiment a few times to make sure our results are solid.

Permalink

You'll have to hold on to the alarm. So that it continues keeping time.

Permalink

My watch's got one, I'll just make sure to bring it with.

Permalink

That works. Science kissing.

Yutaka didn't drive to school this morning, so after school he walks Haru to his mother's car for the sake of appearances (and because he enjoys it) and then they both magic up and roof hop to Yutaka's apartment.

"Home, empty home. If I'd known I was going to become a magical boy I'd have tried to get my old man to find me an apartment with more reasonable window heights."

"Do those things even open?"

Permalink

"They do not! It would be insane and I'd probably have permanent anxiety of ever getting too close to them if they did."

Permalink

"Well, we can't have that. Where's your luxometers?"

Permalink

Here! One of them is a simple handheld device, the other has this fancy-looking box with a bunch more metrics than just illuminance.

Permalink

Haru reads the instructions and then baubles his gem to check what they each have to say about it.

Permalink

Well the displays show some numbers but they'll probably need to Google what those numbers indicate exactly. There's illuminance, luminance, luminous intensity, luminous flux, including a little camera display that'll show whatever the measurer is seeing with false colours corresponding to local luminance, and another display has all of those values split between bands of the visible light spectrum.

Permalink

This seems like a job for a graph. Haru starts writing down data points.

Permalink

If he fiddles with it he can get one of the displays to show a graph of total illuminance over time, although the other numbers are vectorial and so just a graph wouldn't cut it.

Permalink

And do the two meters agree with each other pretty well?

Permalink

Yeah! The handheld one has less granularity and updates more slowly but if they look at the same area with either measurement camera they get very similar results.

Permalink

And who's brighter right now, him or Yutaka?

Permalink

Haru, but not by a lot, and it might be explained by the difference in colour; even when they had just cleared their gems with the grief seed, Haru's golden gem looked brighter than Yutaka's silver.
