bricks are domesticated rocks

Why on earth would you have a pet rock? That seems a bit morbid.

[kingofscience]

Eh, not really. Sure he got some weird stares, but it was just from other kids our age back then. I know rock collecting is a hobby people do- they just go outside and find cool ones to keep on their shelf or something.

[granvelle]

I see. Most people I've heard of with rock collections acquired them from wizards, so it's much more frowned upon outside of the North and West.

[kingofscience]

Oh, I see- this is a matter of differing worlds again, I assume. We don't have any wizards or magic where I'm from, so we're probably speaking in different contexts!

[granvelle]

It seems to be the case, though it also seems that most people I've met from other worlds are unfamiliar with wizards.

[tfw you're from an isekai]

Though I suppose that also means you have other sources of power.

[kingofscience]

Well, it's less that people are unfamiliar with wizards, and more like magic is mostly fictional where I live.

And yeah- electricity and fuel mostly powers the world through various means. Advancements in technology and the like.

[granvelle]

It's still sometimes hard to imagine such a thing, even though most people from other worlds seem to believe that.

[Weird!]

Fuel seems like an incredibly vague term.

[kingofscience]

Heh, I suppose it does. Well, in technical terms, "fuel" usually falls under coal, gas or oil- things that can be burned in order to produce power.
