You certainly make it look easy... I must admit, I'm worried about "fast-traveling" into a wall or something equally as harrowing.
A bit like a glitch in a video game, but messier.

[Something something Bethesda something something.]

... If I could just use my bike wherever I wish, that would be so much easier.

[abnormalizes]

Hmmmmmm.

Okay, this might be stupid, but given the ridiculous technology and magic levels available, maybe you could get your bike modified to fly? Then it really wouldn't matter what the roads were like.

[splittingheadache]

...

[...

Considering the look on his face, it's clear he's never considered that idea. And he's now considering it very hard.]

I... could potentially make it fly. Couldn't I? If I were to tap into the bike's Remnant, perhaps... or possibly buy a second Remnant from home?
I wonder if Nine could figure that out...

[abnormalizes]

I don't know what a Remnant is, please describe it to me in nerdy detail.

[splittingheadache]

Ah - the leftover energy of a soul. When you collect a soul, you're sort of "cutting" is essence out of an energetic shell, and that shell is the Remnant.
It's our main power source among the dead, though it can also be used for various purposes based on its color... for example, a Red-colored Remnant could be used as the heating element in a little, personal heater.

[...]

At least, that's what I know of it. That's more, ah... Violet core territory, as it delves into technology and the like...

[abnormalizes]

Ohhhh. Not totally dissimilar from enkephalin, it sounds like? That's the energy source created from work with Abnormalities.

[splittingheadache]

Well - what is enkephalin comprised of? If it's anything related to consciousness, then I'd say it's likely very similar.
What with everything being made of psychoplasm and all.

[Psychoplasm being the matter that forms consciousness, of course. ... Has either of them explained that to her?
Who knows. Probably.]

[abnormalizes]

That sounds about right! Higher brain activity produces more enkephalin.

...Although, since I have no interest in selling power to people here, its main use here is getting immortals drunk.

[splittingheadache]

- Oh?

[Pausing, thinking, turn that over in his mind -]

... Oh. That must be the main ingredient in MK's cocktails, then.

[abnormalizes]

Yep! I'm his supplier.

[She hasn't been giving it out for free recently, so it's probably fine to say it...]

[splittingheadache]

Ahh, I see - that makes much more sense, then. I'd wondered how he was able to mix thing even I could have...
At least, without it being made of magic from among the dead, at any rate.

[It's not as if Grim Reapers don't get drunk, after all. Just, y'know... they get drunk via magic booze, because that's all they have.]

[abnormalizes]

I mean, he is some kind of divine stone monkey with absurd powers and friends with equally absurd powers. I wouldn't be surprised if there was something similar in his world.

[splittingheadache]

Also very true, yes. ... Though, from what I've seen of his powers, I'm not exactly sure I would want to consume anything he made using them.

[Back during the whole Labuwu craze, Louis was watching the guy set up a stall with those ultra-perceptive eyes of his - and saw the split-second, nearly-invisible instant where that stall turned to hair.
Just... hair.

He thinks about it a lot.]

... That said, he does produce some very nice wines with his Pokemon's help. Have I shared any with you?
He gave me something close to four bottles for my birthday.

[abnormalizes]

Yeah, I guess the thought of drinking hair isn't great, even if it's obviously not going to feel like that. I have a monster-pattern bikini that he made me and it's a treasured possession.

You haven't! I don't usually drink anything heavy enough to get me drunk, but if it's at home with you...
