"Yeah."

Back to the Room.

And back to Kang.

"You got what you wanted?"

Permalink

"...approximately, yeah. We need the whereabouts of the scissors."

He sits at his computer. It's unclear why he was standing. It's unclear what he does all day, really. 

"It'll take a few minutes. You can sit down." 

Permalink

Sit sit.

Sit.

"We talked to the motel janitor. His wife was the one in charge of their cabal. They combined seven Objects trying to do something. He didn't really explain what. Become omnipotent, probably, she seemed like the type. It didn't work, though, and she disappeared."

Permalink

He remains standing, fidgeting quietly.

Permalink

"Becoming omnipotent sounds like a sweet deal, not gonna lie."

Permalink

"Trying to achieve omnipotence with Objects is a terrible strategy. They affect judgment and combinations are unpredictable."

Permalink

"Don't they have patterns?"

Permalink

"In hindsight," he growls.

"No one has a theory yet."

He prints out a page and hands it to Kaede.

Permalink

"Thank you," he says, accepting it. "—hindsight might be good. Do you have, like, a list of combinations that've been tried?"

Permalink

"There haven't been many that were recorded. The Knife and the Wristwatch supposedly cause telepathy."

Permalink

"Yeah that one I knew, although I'm not sure what the logic there is, the Wristwatch boils eggs, doesn't it?"

Permalink

"The explanation I've heard is that the knife shares things, and the egg makes certain things more tangible. I'm not sure why the combination would share thoughts and not something else. It's not really a very good explanation, and we only have one solid example to go on. Other combinations are rumored, but only that one is verified by multiple collectors." 

Permalink

"I... see. And not any pair of Objects combine to do stuff, then."

Permalink

"No, some combinations don't have distinct effects. They can be used at the same time, but nothing new happens."

Permalink

"I see. Thank you." And he pays Kang for the information on the scissors.

Permalink

"Actually, you can have half off. When you take over the world, remember me."

Permalink

He laughs. "I will. But my plan is to remember everyone."

Permalink

"I'm not surprised. Good luck. Braeden. Stilinski."

Permalink

"We'll be seeing you."

Permalink

Awwww.

Back to the Room. "...so who's up for dinner?"

Permalink

"As long as she's buying." 

Here Ends This Thread
