seiji: disgruntled otters probably take up more space than placid ones
seiji: best to keep them hydrated
Mars: hahah
seiji: especially at altitude
bendingsignpost: Dunno, disgruntled kids are more compact than placid ones. It’s the tension.
bendingsignpost: If they’re just silently fuming, that is.
seiji: depends on the kid. i’m the silent fuming type, but i know some kids who doubled in size
Mars: Some kids go boneless and expand to three times the normal size when disgruntled
persian_slipper: The answer to this is simple: is a disgruntled Sherlock larger than a regular Sherlock?
bendingsignpost: You assume a disgruntled Sherlock isn’t a regular Sherlock.
bendingsignpost: He’s not particularly gruntled.
persian_slipper: True. He does only come in two modes: disgruntled and CASE!
hemingway: A more-disgruntled-than-average Sherlock sometimes expands and sometimes contracts.
Mars: I picture a disgruntled Sherlock as more compact, but also possibly supine
hemingway: Well, sometimes he curls. but sometimes he sprawls dramatically.
seiji: does he change states? sublimate?
persian_slipper: It’s more like flicking a switch, seiji.
hemingway: It may be a progression.
seiji: i am now imagining disgruntled Sherlock as a supersolid and gruntled Sherlock as a plasma
hemingway: Maybe a Newtonian fluid?
Mars: I imagine he is occasionally non-Newtonian
Moony: I think cats are non-newtonian fluids
Moony: And I think sherlock is basically a cat
Moony: So yeah
roane: I love this room.
Mars: My thoughts exactly roane.
seiji: as though Sherlock cares to abide by the laws of Newtonian physics anyway
