[supraliminally]

Yes. We were victorious.

You will share your alcohol with us as a reward.

[fullhoused]

That wasn't part of the condition.

[supraliminally]

This is true. However, you are drinking. Therefore, I would also like to drink, and possibly be drunk.

[fullhoused]

You got me.

[gets up and goes behind the counter to serve her a glass, then.]

[supraliminally]

Yes. This is a result of my attractiveness and personal charm.

[You know. Charisma and shit.]

The mercury is for a pendulum, I gather.

[fullhoused]

I know nothing about clocks.

[supraliminally]

In a pendulum clock, where seconds are measured by the swinging of a pendulum, changes in temperature can cause the clock to slow or speed up by causing the long rod of the pendulum to lengthen slightly. This is because metal expands by a small amount when heated, and contracts by a small amount when cooled. However, one can avoid this by hollowing out the pendulum and filling it with mercury. When heated, the rod will continue to lengthen, but the mercury will expand as well and rise up slightly, causing the center of gravity on the pendulum to remain even. This allows for increased precision.

[Pouring herself some wine. Awww yeah, booze.]

[fullhoused]

You're quite clever.

[supraliminally]

Yes. This is because I am a superior being.

[fullhoused]

Let's not get ahead of ourselves.

[supraliminally]

Wouldn't dream of it.
