He really should have known better than to talk to Seaborgium. Right below that rogue Tungsten, and more than ten times as elusive. And really, it shouldn't have been suprising that the Periodic wound up in unfamiliar territory when following him around, and then being left. Francium stepped forward a few feet, carefully shying away from any humans or monsters. Normally monsters never made it past the parenthesis or whatever they were called, so getting back to the forest shouldn't be that hard.
But despite keeping distance, the silver horse would undoubtedly attract attention. For one, he could readily be described as humongous, much larger than the most impressive stallions. He was like two ponies stacked on top of each other, really, and every hoofbeat made the floor beneath him creak. Anyone turning to look could also see the big black Fr on one side of him, and that his flesh rippled like a pool of water.
Upon reaching a table, the horse peered down at the floating quill. "I don't like this place," he stated matter-of-factly. Yes, it could talk. His front legs bent so he could get a closer look at the quill, which seemed to be transcribing what he said. Huh. And what was this application thing?
Francium decided to give it a shot. maybe this would make the human scientists finally get a visible sample of his element.
State your full name.
"Francium. I am the Periodic with atomic number 87, and my symbol is Fr." He swished his enormous tail to indicate the digraph on his side. "For any more information, look at a periodic table. I'm in the lower left corner." Hands would be useful right now to draw a table, but he only had hooves. Not a big deal in the forest, thankfully.
1. What is your favorite cheese? Why is it your favorite?
"If I attempted to eat cheese, the water content would cause a reaction." He looked a little sad about this, and lowered his head. Francium looked up again. "This reaction is known as an...explosion. Keep your cheese."
2. Who would you kill first, Barney or Carrottop?
"Are these monsters?" Francium asked, then shook his head. "Whichever one is the least intelligent and attempt to touch me first." He could totally keep himself from reacting, as Julie had seen, but those crazy monsters had no business attacking a Periodic--even one as rare as Francium.
3. What time is it where you are?
Francium glanced around the room for a moment, then remembered that even if there was a clock, it was probably too far away to see. "Between 35 and 40 of my half-lives past midnight, as an estimate. In human time, that is..." Cue a quick scratching at the floor to do some arithmetic. "12:50 and 2:40. PM," he added. He wasn't that radioactive.
4. If you were Albus Dumbledore returned from the dead, which member of the Order of the Phoenix would you sexually harass? How would you harass them? If you are Albus Dumbledore, please answer as if you were Sirius Black.
"That isn't nice," Francium stated. "Harassment is more of Tungsten's hobby." Oh, yes, Tungsten. Where was that guy by now?
5. If you are pushing to be in:
A. Slytherin - please state the clever, witty name of the bar in which you bartend, in the dark.
"May I skip this question? I am not present enough in the human world to understand what a bar is." The periodic nodded, then swiped at the dictaquill to strikethrough his words.
B. Gryffindor - Debate whether Harry should ultimately end up married to Fred or George. Use examples from a variety of world mythologies to bolster your argument.
"I will use a similar excuse on this question." Swipe. Honestly, human affairs were out of his league. Stay in Science and Math, and he was fine. Out of that, you have a very lost Periodic.
C. Ravenclaw - You guys are supposed to be smart. Explain why my desk is inundated with paperwork at all times, even though I’m constantly disposing of it.
Well, he couldn't keep deferring these questions. He sort of had an answer, but it sounded stupid. "Find the material releasing the 'paperwork' isotope as a decay product, and remove it from your desk. The paperwork will stop appearing." Except, it didn't work like that.
D. Hufflepuff - Prove you are not useless.
"I am present in all Uranium ores," He weakly justifed, then thought a little more. His tail swished at a nearby fly. "I can calibrate Geiger counters. I can function as Cesium..." The horse kind of scrambled for ideas, and wasn't getting anywhere.
6. Offer a bribe to the members of this community so that they will not squib you. Items used in bribery do not necessarily have to belong to the person offering the bribe. Do not threaten us rather than offering a bribe. A threat indicates you either don't really want to be here, or don't have enough sense to answer the question properly. The hat will automatically squib you, regardless of other votes, if you do.
Items do not need to belong to...hmm. On the other hand, he was slightly annoyed by the other question, and wanted to fix it, So, without further ado, he placed one hoof on the table, next to the application, and concentrated. Within a moment, a dark, silvery-gold lump a metal appeared, about the size of a marble. "I will create masses of my element for whoever needs them" The lump kind of exploded halfway through the sentence, setting the table on fire and spraying hot gas everywhere. The horse either didn't notice or didn't care. Hey, it was normal for his element.
