The Least Common Denominator XC.III Steam Power
Right... Options!Time seemed to slow to a crawl as fighting instincts took over my senses. It didn't happen often, but I guess being in an enclosed space with two other combatants kicked something in my head to high gear as I watched the Prime whirl his axe over his head. I felt Arya tense in my periphery. If she was telling the truth, then she was gonna be greatly diminished in this fight... which meant she probably won't be able to defend this next attack!"Please die."*WHOOSH!*With a surprisingly polite request, a whirlwind of flame erupted from the man's whirling axe. Sweeping through the hallway, the heat quickly scorched what was left of the blood in the vicinity as it hurtled towards us in an arc. Looking at my partner, she only had a smirk as she raised her rapier for some reason. I was torn.
The Least Common Denominator Interlude XXXVI: Olivia XI
Olivia had thought that things were going far too smoothly.Yes, while they were besieged on all sides without so much as a wink of sleep for the past forty-eight hours, the Denominator barely counted her kills even as her Resolve continued to rake in kill after kill. Each floor they passed was bereft of any sort of enemy resistance after her and Lady Frost went through them. Even the occasional Num was no match to her speed, the poor fools barely even registering her presence before they found their heads rolling on the ground beneath them. In truth, most of her time was better spent worrying if her Big Sister was doing fine with Isaac as her partner.The boy had been training well under Grigori and occasionally, herself even if only a short amount of time has passed. He was progressing leaps and bounds, perhaps even better than she anticipated. Still, Olivia could not help b

Through the looking glass... In retrospect, I probably should be more introspective these days. I haven't really been taking the time to just stop and think. Then again, where the hell do I even get the time for that when we're busy overthrowing an empire spanning across a small continent? Do I just drop everything and focus on the little things? A psychologist would probably say yes. And as a doctor, I'd probably agree. Health always comes first, after all.Unless, of course, if what you're dropping would mean that your life would be ruined or something comparable happens.*rruuumble...*The ground faintly shook beneath us. Arya and I were practically sprinting to the ground floor after our previous debacle. Our noses had probably fallen off at this point if they weren't glued to our faces with how bad we smelled, but I suppose I should thank huma
The Least Common Denominator XCI.II Refractive Index
*CLANG!*With zero regards for strategy, I rushed towards my opponent like a raging bull. The Firebrand clashed with the woman's halberd with a resounding clang, her face still colored by anger and confusion as I kept up the pressure.*CLANG! CLANG!*Two more strikes. Twice blocked, but it didn't deter me from pressing the attack. The Prime was clearly getting annoyed now, if the look on her face was any indication."Enough!"*SLAM! CRACK!*I quickly jumped back as she managed to slam her halberd down on the ground. Spikes made of gemstones immediately followed her movement, skewering the air that I was once at before more erupted towards me.Sprinting around the Prime, I felt Livia assume her stance from my mind's eye as I outran the

Come on, Crimson. Think about this!*CLANG! CLANG!*Letting my instincts take over for a while, I felt myself detach from the fight before me as my brain ran in hyper mode. Well, as fast as it could possibly go with the lack of sleep and constant pain, that is.*SLAM! CRACK!*Okay... I'm still able to dodge the sudden spikes, at least. Garnet's halberd and fighting style still felt familiar enough that I can run on auto-pilot, but her strength had clearly been taken up a notch despite my own strength not being that weak anymore....*CLANG! CLANG!*My two-handed style can't cut through. She seemed to be reading my movements fairly well. Her halberd's reach prevents me from fighting at mid-range, and her control of her element makes it dangerous to stay at close ra

For a brief moment, I saw stars and lights light up in my eyes. A burning sensation in my sides only exacerbated the situation, my ribs creaking with each breath that I took.That, and the numerous shards piercing my body was starting to register in my head as I came to."Had enough, Crimson?"With a groan, I blinked the confusion out of my eyes, the pain searing through my very being ignored by the pressing concern of actually losing. I found myself looking up to my adversary, her halberd dangerously pointed at me as she stood at attention.Well, that wouldn't do, now did it?Forcing my body to move, I vaulted on top of my staff once more, my entire upper body straining at the effort that I think I actually screamed in pain a little bit."Oh no, you don't!"
The Least Common Denominator Interlude XXXVIII: Arya V
As soon as the dome made of solid gems rose from the ground, Arya knew that something bad was going to happen.Already, despite their best efforts, the onslaught of enemies never seemed to abate as more and more Numerators began flooding from the front gate. Slowly but surely, the weak and puny Decimals were replaced with semi-competent Addends and Subtrahends that actually knew what they were doing. From coordinated attacks to passable sneak hits, the former Prime was hard-pressed to keep her composure even as her arsenal grew with each body that she and Olivia felled."You doing okay there, Olivia?~""I'm... doing fine!" the young woman panted at her, her blade stained with dripping crimson despite her obvious disadvantage. "Just get my sister... out of that thing!"Arya almost clicked her tongue in annoyance. The fac
The Least Common Denominator XCII.I Gay-Lussac's Law
If I recalled correctly, temperature did something funny to everything under its influence. Whether by shrinking a road till it cracked whenever it was cold or by melting asphalt whenever it was hot, it's all dependent on just how much energy was being poured into one specific object. After all, heat was energy too, which meant that in a funny way, coldness was the absence of energy in a single object. Kind of weird to think about really, but I suppose it also rang true for abstract concepts like anger and mental momentum."You'll thank me later for this, Master. I'll be here when you need me."Ica's voice echoed behind my head as I came to, my head pounding as the sensation of being carried slowly became clearer with each passing second. The constant bobbing up and down was doing nothing to favor the growing nausea in my stomach as I began retching. Unfortunately, even that p
