I feel kinda good right now, as I’ve successfully managed to calculate this in my head. Thank you both for involuntarily boosting my ego. (=
For anyone interested, my thought process: 600,000s/60 -> 10,000min/60 -> 1000/6 h -> 333/2 h -> 160 h/24 -> 20/3 d -> 7 d -> 1 week
This way it’s actually quite easy.
Relative to the rest of the world, she is only a few hours old when she wakes up in the morning, she can literally say that she was born yesterday without any exaggerating. This also means that she has minimal interpersonal skills beyond what the ancient video games incorporated in their story lines.
A real treat, indeed. Especially considering that this world has far less light pollution from what I can tell. So a night sky there really means something.
“World”? Just because the area we see is sparsely populated doesn’t mean whole world is. And I didn’t saw anything which would suggest their cities have less light pollution as ours.
I’m seeing less ‘attraction’ and more ‘I’m wary because now Kili’s a guy again and I just had to relive all the breakups I’ve had in my life and I might be looking at another one now’ in Greg’s eyes.
actually Elka asked him what he would do if Kili were to turn back into a guy, his answer was orientation adapters I believe. Remember, they didn’t fall for each-other because of mere attraction, they are spiritually linked after fighting the Crax, it may not be entirely possible for them to break up.
Yeah, I considered that and it most likely is the case, but still, you can’t just immediately say Greg wouldn’t have doubts after the run-in with the Eliminator demon.
Yeah but you know the funny thing about being shown your failures, once you get a moment of reflection on them, you often become more dedicated to not let them happen, also note the Eliminator, didn’t show him the Dianas (the alchemist that split into multiple people), while that relationship ended, it wasn’t a failure, nor was he rejected, they just couldn’t “work” anymore after the incident, the original no longer existed, and while she didn’t exactly die, he couldn’t exactly be in a relationship with one of them, and not the rest, having been in a relationship with the original
I was under the impression he already didn’t care what gender his spouse is, that he isn’t picky and loves them off of who they are, not what gender they are.
I may be a moron. Failing that, let’s pretend she ran far enough away from the attack with Priscilla in her arms. I meant to establish that but never got the chance.
For other people doing mental math on the first panel: 600,000 seconds equals one week (more or less).
Also, I totally see that blush on Elka’s face in Panel 2. Poor lady!
1 hour, 26 minutes and 24 seconds short of a week.
Eh, I figure there’s an implicit one-sig-fig accuracy in the estimate. 😉
Funny how the first thing we think of is pulling out the calculator when we saw that panel, I did too then I saw I was beat to the punch
I as well. Though ‘first’ was attempting a mental conversion… that lasted all of a second before ‘nope, need a calculator’.
Well yeah, I meant more train of thought wise

You would think she’d have began to get used to it by now, even though she’s usually just a bystander
Almost 20 years without a night sky? Hitomi is in for a real treat.
Looks like a good sunset, too – I like the colors!

Two hours, fourty-seven minutes and thirty seconds if I did the conversion right
Nope, 600,000 seconds is just under 1 week
Yes, 6 days, 22 hours and 40 minutes…
first night ever for her? i forgot she was locked in a timestasis. must be awesome or scary.
Not time stasis, rapid time, the opposite of time stasis.
Greg seems not entirely unhappy with bishie Kili…
…so does Elka.

Correction the Donnas
I was under the impression he already didn’t care what gender his spouse is, that he isn’t picky and loves them off of who they are, not what gender they are.
Amy should have been in the middle of things. Why didn’t she get hit with the gender change to male?
