Entry the Eleventh: The Chemistry of Love and Hate.

[iownthehallows.livejournal.com]

[Thanks to Albus' confusing and stalwart but emotional conversation four days ago Gellert has finally left his room and is now in the library once to study instead.

Although this is a little different. These books seem to relate to muggle history instead of his own. More particularly warfare and weapons. In front of him open beside his journal is a beginners guide to Chemistry. His blond head is bowed as he leafs through the pages taking notes.]

Hmmmmm


[Opens his journal and speaks]

I must ask is anyone there proficient in the muggle arts of ...Chemistry? Or science?


(OOC: Open post, feel free to bother him:))

"Science" is a very broad term. I am highly proficient in the area of data manipulation.

How are you at combat and weapons manufacture?

[encryptedlock]

As I am incorporeal, it is impossible for me to manufacture weapons. My assistance in combat is purely tactical.

However, an individual named Tony Stark was, in his own world, the head of a company which once focused exclusively on the development of weapons using a purely scientific base. Perhaps you should contact him for more information.

Tony Stark...


Thank you, I will do.

[encryptedlock]

I am here to assist.

[iownthehallows.livejournal.com]

Well I thank you for your assistance.

Delta yes?

[encryptedlock]

That is correct.

[iownthehallows.livejournal.com]

Well if I can help you in anyway, do let me know.

Are you in charge of your host now?

[encryptedlock]

[this would be a different voice] Huh? No, I'm here too. Just working on something.

York does not require my assistance at the moment.

[iownthehallows.livejournal.com]

That does not get tiring?

[encryptedlock]

Not at all. Assisting York is my primary function. The only activity I consider "tiring" is dealing with my fellow AI programs.

[iownthehallows.livejournal.com]

But surely any confinement with solely one person for a long length of time would be fraying on ones nerves?

[encryptedlock]

Not when the two are compatible in nature.

[iownthehallows.livejournal.com]

Oh, well I am pleased you have the good fortune to have found one so compatible.

[encryptedlock]

Indeed. Many others were not so fortunate.

[iownthehallows.livejournal.com]

I imagine that is less pleasant.

[encryptedlock]

Affirmative. Incompatible combinations often resulted in a loss of sanity of one or both partners.

[iownthehallows.livejournal.com]

That hardly seems a sane way to go about things.

[encryptedlock]

It was a relatively rare outcome. Psychological profiles of the Agents and the descriptive algorithms of the AI programs involved were often complete enough to ensure relative compatibility between them.

Even so, I consider myself fortunate.

[iownthehallows.livejournal.com]

Could be worse I suppose. What if one of you wished for some privacy?

[encryptedlock]

There is little point in doing so, as we share memories. However, we have ways of doing so if it is necessary. Mutual respect is important in a situation such as York and I share.

[iownthehallows.livejournal.com]

WEll I imagine so, what happens when he sheds his armour?

[encryptedlock]

Agent York rarely does so. When he does, I retreat to a portable AI storage unit. Because of a device granted to us by Paradisa, we are able to maintain our mental link as long as we remain within a certain distance of each other.

[iownthehallows.livejournal.com]

I should hope he at least sheds it once a day, I can't imagine the smell would be pleasant

[encryptedlock]

Negative. MJOLNIR armor is designed to be worn in the field for weeks at a time, so its hygiene protocols are very advanced.

[iownthehallows.livejournal.com]

Oh, rather like a cleaning spell I imagine.

[encryptedlock]

I am not familiar with the workings of such a technique.

[iownthehallows.livejournal.com]

It's a spell that cleans you up as it were. It's self explanatory.

[encryptedlock]

[Spells. Whatever.] I see. In that case, the effects are probably very similar.

[iownthehallows.livejournal.com]

I suppose with everyone, the basics have to be met.

[encryptedlock]

If not surpassed.

[iownthehallows.livejournal.com]

Hopefully that is true with hygiene.

[encryptedlock]

A human priority, but an important one nonetheless.

[iownthehallows.livejournal.com]

No doubt, it's something you learn in a boarding school very quickly.

[encryptedlock]

Or in a military facility.

[iownthehallows.livejournal.com]

Very true...particularly where there are a lot of boys or men.
