I have discovered that human males cannot do math. This is horrifying! *distressed humming*
@cryptic-wordplay
No! *joins the humming at a slightly higher pitch*
@alethkars-true-king say that is not true! You can do math, right???
No? I'm a man. ...Wait, gender is a lie. Do I need to know math? It seems boring.
*louder buzzing* Math is everything! Literally! Fighting is math! Music is math! History is math! You are math!
*winces* Ok, calm down. Storms. Fighting isn't math... it's just fighting. And what do you mean, I'm math?
It is! Angles and speed and balance and gravity and force! All of that can be calculated with numbers! It's exciting!
You have 206 bones, 33 of which are vertebrae! Your respiratory rate is 16 times per minute! You have over 10,000 taste buds! Your body is made up of seven octillion axi! That is so many!
So much more than numbers! Symmetries are math! You Alethi like your symmetries! And language and thinking and figuring things out. And curves! Strategies! All math!
Oh... Denouement, you've... brought a friend.
Mmmmmm. Good lie! Accidental lie! Mistake. Mmmm. Denouement did not bring me! Denouement is my friend and I happened to be passing by! Yes. Mmm. I like seeing the mathematics going on here in the tower. It is fun seeing the ardents make sudden advancements, yes! Discover new math-lies! Mmm.
...Spren have friends? Which Radiant do you belong to, anyway? Shouldn't you be near them?
Mmm. Yes. And I don't yet. Looking for a lightweaver. One who likes to weave my favourite kind of lies! Math lies! By no one has impressed me yet. The other cryptics are saying I'm being to picky and that humans haven't gotten all that far yet.
