Totally Safe Science With Beaker!, Friday, June 17, 2022

[meepmeepmeep]

Well, there wasn't a teacher in the front of the classroom currently, but there was a cardboard box machine with a bunch of important looking buttons on it it was meeping, so everything was probably fine.

After a few minutes the machine began to whir and smoke, slightly, and Beaker popped out of the side, meeping nervously.

He was followed by another Beaker.

And another Beaker.

And another Beaker.

And another Beaker.

Today's task, kids: fix the Multiplier!

Um. Quickly. There were now at least ten Beakers.

Watch the lecture!

[meepmeepmeep]

Well. Such as it is.

"Um," Gray said. "Are there supposed to be so...many?"

Fix the Machine!

[meepmeepmeep]

And figure out to do with ten, no, twelve, no, fifteen Beakers.

"I think," said Amaya, once she realized that Beakers were just on a roll here, "our first order of business should be containment."

It just seemed dangerous to let all those Beakers on the loose.

....it seemed dangerous to have so many Beakers in a contained space as well, actually.

"On second thought," she said, "let's just smash it."

That should help, right?

Re: Fix the Machine!

"How many Beakers till they just spontaneously combust, you think?"

Miguel should have brought popcorn.

Re: Fix the Machine!

[special_rabbit]

"There is only one way to find out," Amaya mused.

"Think we should just set up some blast shields?"

And these were supposed to be the adults in the room.

Re: Fix the Machine!

Miguel shrugged. "The room's already got safety protocols. Think we need to?"

Hey, this was a valid scientific experiment!

Re: Fix the Machine!

[furrybluefreak]

"Are they all actually Beakers? Or are they just copies that look like Beaker?"

As in is there one fire prone Beaker and the rest are empty copies, or do they literally have over a dozen spontaneous combustions waiting to happen?

Re: Fix the Machine!

[what_the_shock]

"Catch a couple and I'll test their DNA," Miguel offered.

Re: Fix the Machine!

[napking]

"Okay," Gray said. "What if we put them all back in the thing?"

Talk to Beaker

[meepmeepmeep]

If you can figure out which is the original Beaker.

OOC

I love my cracked out canon.

As far as I'm concerned today's class is titled "Meep us all, Spock!"
