Science Rules! The Science and Knowledge Expo Kicks into Full Force!

[stringmods]

▼ Consider the Following......

 

Who: Anyone
Where: The entire city
When: June 8th-15th
Summary: Science and Knowledge Exop in the Leo Ward.
Warnings: That depends who is there. Remember to mark your titles clearly if any warnings need to be issued!

▼ You know what rules?

 

Science. Science and the inquiring mind has kept humanity on the path of progress for hundreds of thousands of years. What could make science rule harder?

A science showcase, of course! What better way spark the curiosity of the young and old by showing off the scientific achievements of the community. You have your things for the kids, your potato batteries and baking soda volcanoes and what-have-you, you have your higher-brow showcases of what the Department of Wands has been working on, your informative panels delving into biology, physics, chemistry and astronomy. There's even free food, including some molecular gastronomy creations for the...adventurous. There are even topics your average Visitor wouldn't think fell under the realms of science.

Such as? Why, like how Personas work (with explanations that aren't just "It's Magic") or discussions about demons, where they might come from, how they're different and similar to humans, how they use magic, and so on.

What kind of things will you and your friends discover? Perhaps you or someone you know is setting up an exhibit?

Regardless, enjoy the science fair and have fun!

[OOC: You are allowed to start a thread if you want your character to have a booth / hold a topic in a private room, or just do threads where you go around visiting. Projects and seminars are varied! Share your knowledge! Enjoy the science! Eat some really strange food! Try not to mix too much baking soda with vinegar!]

[On day one, Judas finds it in him to watch the demon summoning animation.]

The Lesser Key of Solomon didn't have computer code, I know that much...

[meaningdies]

[... Welp.]

No. But it's easily converted into such. It's pretty easy to find online, as well, actually.

[silvercoins]

That's all I know, really. I was never one to come anywhere near demon summoning.

[meaningdies]

Most people aren't, or think that it's not real. Fewer get it to work. The ones that do don't generally make a habit out of letting others know, anyway.

[silvercoins]

I don't blame them for that. Literal or metaphorical witch hunts are never fun.

[meaningdies]

Mm, no. And they happen so often through human history that it's just usually a bad idea to get involved with that stuff.

... Unless you know what you're doing. Then it's slightly less of a bad idea.

[silvercoins]

I'll take your word for it. My Persona is really as eldritch as I want to get...

[meaningdies]

Oh? What is it?

[silvercoins]

Zagan. One of the demons mentioned in the Ars Goetia.

[meaningdies]

Ah, him. I could only program some of those in... a shame.

[silvercoins]

I suppose meeting the one I had as my Persona would be awkward, wouldn't it?

[meaningdies]

Not really. If it's a projection of yourself, then it's not the same as the being that would be in front of you.

[silvercoins]

Hm... I'm not sure if that makes me feel better or worse about it.

[meaningdies]

Everyone has masks. That doesn't mean they have to be the one you always have on. Think of it as a chance to let part of your actual self express itself.

[silvercoins]

I'm not very fond of my actual self, sir.

[meaningdies]

Why not?

[silvercoins]

It's a Judas thing.

[meaningdies]

[... Ah. He's not heard it stated that way, but he gets the picture.]

... Never mind, then.

[silvercoins]

Thank you for trying.
