( MINGLE - WEEK 5 )
 The sun is shining, the air conditioner units hum as they always do, and a gentle morning breeze blows against the windows. The scent of pine cones and evergreen follow you wherever you go in the motel, save for the parking lot and outdoor pool. It seems like someone was very generous with the detergent while moping the floors. The two grandfather clocks (one on each floor) will ring with each passing hour, indicating the time of day without fail. With this knowledge — they'll note the motel will continue to be surrounded by fog until 8:00 AM on the dot. It is at that hour that the fog will begin to recede. Not enough to reveal the whole city, but enough to allow residents to explore some of the buildings surrounding the motel. And speaking of the motel, it seems like the Kitchen, Dining Hall and Disposal room are still under constructions. Meals will be served in the Pool/Outdoor Dining Area in the meantime. How quaint. As a reminder, we are now accepting murder proposals for Week 5! If you're interested in having your character commit a murder this week, be sure to send in your proposal before Tuesday, 9:00 PM EST. Without any murders we can't have a murdergame, so go forth and let the bodies hit the floor! As always, feel free to PM us or send us a PP over plurk if you have any questions! ic rulebook | locations | statuses | room assignments private conversations | ic profiles | graveyard | full navigation |

It's easy to tell how tired she is--he wouldn't be surprised. This week is...particularly hard, even right now. This is why it's the best time for distractions. ]
I was wondering if he had something to do with an "HP Formula"; it could be a coincidence that the first two letters are the same as his beginning initials, but...

[ ...He wonders briefly if his cluelessness is because of differences in the ... general everything in comparison from where he's come. ]
Does it have to do with some form of technology I'm unfamiliar with?

[There's a little more life in her voice now. Yay for explaining things!]
Horsepower is a unit of measurement used to compare the output of mechanical engines based on draft horses, though these days most countries use the watt instead. Basically, one metric horsepower equals the power required to lift 75 kilograms by one meter in one second.

[ He then nods at her explanation... ]
So, it was a formula created to make already existing technology more efficient, from what I'm understanding. Thank you for your help, Akane--though it seems to not have been as significant as I may have thought. I'm sure the individual who developed the formula was.
