[The camera pans around the Inn's kitchen, where Sam's rickety, faithful vodka distillery appears to be up and running again!]

Look.

[Sam doesn't appear on camera because...well...she can't. But that's her grumpy, Midwestern accent. No doubt.]

I fell down on the job a little, okay? I could make up some fancy excuse for you about why there was no vodka for weeks, but the fact of the matter is that the Overlords won. I was just fucking depressed.

[And she still might be. But Sam would never admit something like that.]

Anyway, just letting you all know that this shitshow is officially off the wagon again. Feel free to booze out to your heart's content. Just don't be a dick and make sure to share because I can only make so much in a day, you know?

Got it. Makes enough sense. Didn't realize the process was so involved.

[thegreatexperiment]

It's not. Chemists just like to make things look more complicated than they are.

Inferiority complex.

[firacrux]

Huh. Well I'll take your word for it. Probably makin' up for being picked on at school.

[It makes total sense to him.]

[thegreatexperiment]

Oh, most definitely.

[firacrux]

That explains everything.

[thegreatexperiment]

[Another rusty laugh.]

Well, I'm very smart.

[firacrux]

[Clearly she needs to use that laughing more to loosen it up!]

Got one up on me. That's one I don't have.

[thegreatexperiment]

One? One what?

[firacrux]

Trait, similarity?

I'm sayin' I ain't that smart. This conversation proves it.

[thegreatexperiment]

Don't sell yourself short. There are eight different kinds of intelligence, according to Howard Gardner.

If you don't have one, you probably have one of the others.

[firacrux]

Wait, eight, how so? What are they? Never heard of something like that before.

[thegreatexperiment]

Oh fuck...

Lemme think.

[Social science has never been Sam's favorite. She only took the AP Psych class because it was the last AP class she hadn't taken.]

Um, I think it's Linguistic intelligence, logical-mathematical intelligence, spatial intelligence, bodily-kinesthetic intelligence, musical intelligence, interpersonal intelligence, intrapersonal intelligence, and...there's a weird last one...naturalist intelligence. Whatever that means.

[firacrux]

[None of these things would have ever been covered in his schooling. Basic, standard education, magic training, and combat training. Infiltration and other courses related to warfare and war-related activities, unfortunately. The chance to learn new things is often one he'll jump at.]

Sounds like plants and stuff. That's what I'd assume by the name. What's bodily-kinesthetic intelligence mean?

[thegreatexperiment]

Movement.

Like, you're good at moving. Graceful. Coordinated. I assume it's if you're good at things like dancing or fighting.

[firacrux]

Huh. Who would have thought that's some kind of intelligence? I just figured it was practice.

[thegreatexperiment]

Not everyone can do it.

[firacrux]

Interesting. Maybe I do have somethin' unique after all. Good to know.

[thegreatexperiment]

Glad I could help, dude.

[firacrux]

Thanks. Anyway I'll let you get back to your vodka.

[thegreatexperiment]

See you around town, I guess.

[firacrux]

Yup, see you around.
