The Least Common Denominator Interlude XXVIII: Bennie II
It was certainly a surprise.When her old mentor approached her all of a sudden on a usual scorching day back in her stall, Bennie thought that she had been hallucinating. There was no way that Olivia even remembered her, right? And she was under orders from Crimson, herself? Surely the heat must've gotten to her! It's been a long time since she saw both of the women that changed her life for the better. Years even. And to think that they actually wanted her back?Of course, she'll pack her bags and follow them!It had been a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. Olivia said that they were up in the North? She was sick of the heat anyway. The fact they might not have enough supplies for everyone at times? Just another challenge for her to hone her cooking skills. The fact that they were about to run an honest-to-gods rebellion?
The Least Common Denominator Interlude XXIX: Isaac
Isaac had never seen such bullshit in his life. Tothink that he even entertained the possibility of Big Sis Olivia being weaker than her supposed older sister? What a joke.This Crimson lady didn't even look like Olivia!"Are you sure she's stronger?"The young man had always admired strength. It was his dream to become a soldier at a young age. Unfortunately, his short stature made it impossible for him to enlist in any sort of garrison that might even want to have him. He trained and trained for years since his childhood, and yet he got shafted because he didn't reach the height requirements? It made him seethe at the others that were clearly only accepted due to status or lineage."I'm absolutely sure, Isaac," his mentor nodded at him. "Sis was the one that taught me everything I know. I wouldn't be here today
The Least Common Denominator Interlude XXX: Descartes
"Do you understand?"Descartes had never thought that she'll be living a life away from her Reine, but circumstances had led her to such a fate. She could only count her lucky stars that she somehow found herself a willing mentor to support her during the lowest point of her life. Perhaps if Madame Olivia had not found her during her travels, the disgraced maid would've been forced to sell herself in order to simply survive the chaos that was the front lines. Such a duty would not be out of her expertise, but servicing anyone other than her liege would have been a shame that she could never erase from her very being. At best, if she would ever be reunited with her proper station, she would never trust herself with her Reine's safety.After all, she had already sold her services for her own well-being. What were the chances that she won't do so again?
The Least Common Denominator LXIX.I Parallelogram
Ahh... The glories of teaching... In retrospect, I probably should've pivoted my career options back in the old world to become a professor or something. My old professors and some of my classmates usually complimented my ability to simplify even the most ridiculous topics using my weird lexicon of internet, gamer, and street speak that seemed to be sorely lacking in the medical field. I suppose I was the insane one that somehow still found time to play games despite being on a field that's notorious for its brain-melting difficulty.Then again, that was because I barely studied at all and just skirted my way through until graduation.Still, I guess I was more cut out as a teacher. Imagining a life where I ended up as that one kooky biology professor kind of made me giggle a bit. To think about the random bullshit I'd subject my prospective students; random bonus questions abo

Once again, I regret ever even thinking that things were that simple."Come again?"I didn't understand a single thing that came out of Anne's mouth. The thick accent didn't help either. She was so animated that what little fluency she had in pronunciation was going down the drain really damn fast. It would've been pretty cute if it wasn't so fucking annoying just trying to parse through her Frenchness."I said, une telle chose ne devrait pas être possible."My brain was on the verge of melting just trying to understand her. I guess I understand now just why she was so averse to learning English. If this was how she felt every time I spoke, then I shudder to think what it felt like when I was teaching her...I took a deep breath. There's no need to blow up today, Crimson. Have some pat
The Least Common Denominator LXX.I Equilateral
Time once again has reared its impossibly powerful influence. Taking the mortality of man into account, the most important resource one could ever ask for would be the ability to do more stuff in a short span amount of time. Efficiency, accuracy, proper organization. These were the keys to getting shit done without wasting time. Of course, this was all just my own ideal stupidity at play. Why, I was probably guilty of wasting over a third of my life doing nothing but procrastinate all damn day. I suppose that playing games, watching anime, and reading fanfiction could count as research for my other hobbies, but it didn't count when your parents wanted someone that could continue the family legacy.I was Asian. Unfortunately, that was to be expected.Still, I at least agreed with my parents on one thing, and that was the fact that I was squandering my potential. I mean, the fac
The Least Common Denominator LXX.II Equilateral
Okay... We have to stop wasting time. We only have like, what, two months until the prospective ceasefire takes effect? We didn't have enough information about the war at the moment to really make a rough estimate. Well, a car wouldn't really help, I think, but it would make our travel time significantly shorter than just walking all the way back to the capital.If anything else, it would be a million times easier to do than connecting rails from the north all the way back to the capital."If I'm seeing this right, this... chassis would be the carriage to carry us, right?"I nodded, "Yeah. It'll be big enough to carry all of us and then some."Or at least, I hope it would. I didn't really know how powerful the engine would be until I actually have it built. The damn thing was a smaller version of the one I built in the
The Least Common Denominator LXX.III Equilateral
"Right, now for the testing phase..."With a full stomach and an apprehensive attitude, Livia and I stared at the engine in front of us as we both just stood around like fucking idiots waiting for something interesting to happen. This was the usual schtick for live testing, unfortunately. And if it did blow up, then we were the first on the scene to either be the first responders in the event of a fire or the first casualties depending on how bad the situation could get. Then again, I highly doubt that something so small could ever make this part of the cave system collapse in on itself. The locomotive engine didn't, but that massive thing didn't have runes on it to supplement its combustion.Fuck... I'm psyching myself out."It's full, Sis," Livia absently replied beside me. "I already filled it earlier before I followed you out for lunch."
