TIAMAT.

[ When you enter the TV, the room surrounding you is notably blank - appearing something like this. Which may seem odd, until words appear out of thin air in front of you: ]

Today, we're going to go through an interactive story of sorts!

You're a college student who's just transferred to a new university, and you have a week to make new friends and potentially find that ~special someone~ people always worry about having.

Luckily for you, your college has a club fair for transfer students just like you! You're headed off there to meet some of your fellow students and get a better lay of the land.

But before we begin, there's just one important thing I need to get down...who are you?

HAYATO - EVENT #2.

When you enter the science lab, you see Kurosawa already there, with a number of chemicals set-up on the lab benches.



HAYATO: Stop right there.



YASUHIRO: ...Is something wrong?



HAYATO: You're not wearing safety equipment. I'm not getting in trouble because you burn yourself with acid.

You sigh, and put on the proper protective equipment.



YASUHIRO: Am I good now?

He looks at you, and eventually nods.



HAYATO: Good enough. You can stand next to me now and watch as I do the experiment.



YASUHIRO: Wait, I don't get to do anything? That's no fair.



HAYATO: Do you really think I'd let some newbie start out doing experiments?



YASUHIRO: I put on all of the proper gear, I'm good to go.

He sighs.



HAYATO: If you seriously expect me to let you handle chemicals, you’ll have to prove you know what you’re talking about first. Which one of the following is an acid?

> H2O.
> CH2MgBr.
> HCl.

...Water... Carbon, hydrogen and... something...

Hydrogen and Chlorine...

...oh! Of course, any elemental mage should know that one.

. . . I beg your pardon, but I have never heard of any of those.

It's high school stuff. The important thing is HCl, which is hydrochloric acid.

You use it to purify some metals in alchemy, and it's an easy compound to make for spells where you create acid...
hyanaimne: I don't agree. (I nawen û ben naweg.)

Wh—I do not make anything for my spells, though. I do not need to.
fuhrinkaed: (Is that so..?)

Well, all magic is different. The point is, it's definitely an acid.

. . . well, if you bloody well know it is, then put in the answer.
fuhrinkaed: (Leave it to me!)

HCl, for sure!

YASUHIRO: Hydrochloric acid is obviously acidic. With a pKa of -7 or so?



HAYATO: ...Maybe you know more than I thought. Fine, you can help out, as long as you don't fuck it up.

You help Kurosawa, whom you feel a bit closer to, conduct an experiment, and then you head home.
