    Summary

    “Minus two points.” He ignored Clara’s sputtering. “A less stupid question would be, ‘How was a sophisticated robot like Svarog subdued long enough for his core to be removed?’”

    Clara couldn’t believe her ears. “I thought that there’s no such thing as a stupid question!”

    Dr. Ratio gave a long and weary sigh. One of his hands came up to rub at his temple. “A common and repulsive misconception. There is a stark difference between a thought-out question asked by someone in an honest endeavor to cure their own ignorance, and an irrelevant question that wastes everyone’s time and could easily be answered should the asker undertake the arduous chore of exercising their brain.”

    Mr. Svarog returns to the settlement with a gaping hole in his chest and a missing core before collapsing, still as a rock. Clara has no choice but to team up with the acerbic researcher sent by the Intelligensia Guild to track it down and save her robot father.

    Bookmarker's Notes

    Summary

    Fu Xuan, too, breaks her gaze from the shadows, turning to face his chest. “I… have an idea, but it is a little… unorthodox.”

    “Not like you to falter twice in a single sentence,” muses Jing Yuan, letting out the seeds of a chuckle. “I like unorthodox, though.”

    “Not sure if it will work, either.” Not even sure what it should entail. This future is ambiguous at best, spare for the immediate sequence of events—unless she chooses to intervene now. This idea is, one could say, utterly “impulsive”, and not exactly Jing Yuan’s preference in doing things…

    “If it’s the best you have at this moment, then…”

    Fu Xuan inhales deeply. Lets it out slowly.

    “Forgive me for the affront,” she mutters, tugging at his tie to pull him towards her.

    (where an impulsive kiss in a formal party leads to the commencement of a temporary pretend relationship.)
