The art of SCIENCE!

Subject: A potential solution

Good afternoon, everyone. As some of you may be aware, a kind of crystal that powers appliances has been discovered. In its current state it seems rather inefficient, as one must provide the crystal a steady source of strong dreammotion energy to keep it charged.

But what if you only had to give it one strong burst?

In the past, I believe I had a fascination with perpetual motion. While this is allegedly impossible due to the first and second laws of thermodynamics, but I don't think that will be much of a problem in these conditions. Allow me to explain through diagrams.
[ Here he sketches out a rough draft. It looks like some weird fusion of a tesla coil, a water wheel, and whatever this is. ]


The machine you see here requires only a single crystal, preferably spherical in shape. Hypothetically, as I have said, you would only need to provide a single burst of dreammotion energy to propel the crystal forwards. This will make the wheel turn, and as the crystal is already energized, the wheel should remain in motion and generate a decent amount of power for your home or business. I realize this is not true perpetual motion, but it should solve our electrical woes.

A special thanks to

Ms. Zelda for gifting me that crystal for Christmas. It has proved instrumental for my research. I've already made several prototypes for testing, so if anyone is willing to provide devices or appliances to experiment with I would greatly appreciate it. I'll even repair any damage that may occur in the process.

Maybe! I dunno if there's— wait, there's that alien guy, right? Do you know him? He might know how to do something like that!

[Ah... she's charged it some herself, at least! So..]

Probably a couple hours, so plenty of time for you play around with it and see how technology of the future works, heh heh.

[Once it's down, she'll open the laptop and drop her password in, pointing to the trackpad.]

I don't have a mouse since I only got the laptop itself, but you can use this. If you wanna open something, you can tap it twice, but if you swipe your finger over it... [just gonna demonstrate here—] It'll control the pointer.

Uhh... I'll have to remember his name, but yeah! He said he had a bunch of neat tech, so I bet he could help!

[Az... Az.... uh... something like that... ANYWAY. His comment gets her laughing and she shakes her head.]

Oh, you might need to take your gloves off, I don't think the pad will pick up your finger presses. But uh, no, a mouse is... I dunno why they called it that, but it has two buttons to click and it's an external touchpad. Probably because before wireless ones came out, the wire could be like a mouse tail. [Makes sense to her.] Too bad I don't have one of those with me.

[Huh... well, she won't ask about the scars, those can be a touchy subject, but they look really cool. Maybe when she knows Luca a little better, she can ask! For now...]

I've thought about it, but I'm sure I could get something else. A TV or a GameStation or something. I think Ren had some retro stuff though, wonder if he'll ever get those back. [Don't mind her, just some idle musing.] I don't really have anything else I'd wanna get from home, so I guess I'll hold on to 'em for now, see what I can get later, you know?

[Luca will be greeted with a nice stylistic background (because Inari might be a weirdo, but she supports him!), some icons for what sound like games— End Figment XIII, Guise 4: The Glittering, Flaming Badge: Many Houses, etc. etc., and something with a strange icon that is named "Alibaba". She doesn't seem too bothered if he clicks on to it, or anything else, really. Everything else is standard PC icons: a browser, file explorer, the works.]
