Is ketchup a smoothie if its pureed tomatoes?

No. A smoothie requires fresh fruit to be blended or crushed and served cold. Tomatoes are cooked and seasoned before being turned into ketchup. Thus, it is a condiment. Or a sauce, if you wish to be pretentious about it.

...

I call it a sauce sometimes.

Greetings! I see you are also a scientist interested in the wonders of this valley. I am fascinated by the wonders of this valley -and by specification- this town, as well. Very nice to meet you. My name is Clover.

Pleasure to meet your acquaintance as well, Mr. Clover.

My, you certainly do look like the intelligent type! We ought to compare notes sometime!

[germanium-nickel-uranium-sulfur]

Demetrius! Hey, I was wondering if you could come over to the farm to check up on some stuff with me? The crops in my greenhouse have been having smaller harvests as of recent- plus they're getting to be a few days off schedule, now. It's getting to a point where it's throwing my whole schedule off. Not a fan.

(on another note, i love your characterization of demetrius he is so damn silly!!!!!! love him :3)

Farmer Harp! Of course. I would love to drop by. There are so many reasons a plant's fruit production could falter. Figuring out that reason is the fun part.

I will drop by A-S-A-P!! Just allow me to gather some equipment first.

And, er-... Of course I'll need to taste a specimen or two! You know, for scientific purposes. The flavor can be very telling!

*you see a turtle wearing sunglasses riding a rocket powered skateboard zoom by* *a couple minutes later*

DEMETRIUS, THE SMARTEST GUY I KNOW, PLEASE TELL ME YOU HAVE SEEN A TURTLE ON A SKATEBOARD RIDE BY. SHE IS WEARING VERY EXPENSIVE AND IMPORTANT SUNGLASSES IF THAT HELPS

-Dee @ask-dee-sdv

WOAH!

I--

In fact, I did! Your companion was heading northeast at roughly the speed of an English Greyhound... On crack cocaine.

...

If you manage to catch her, I'd be FASCINATED to see what kind of modifications you've made to that skateboard! Very impressive!

[germanium-nickel-uranium-sulfur]

WELL! What a pleasant surprise! I hadn't taken you for the scientific type, Abigail! Can't say I'm too shocked, though.

I quite like insects myself. Wonderful little creatures. You know, I actually have quite a few specimens encased in resin, though Robin has me hide them away where she can't see them. Says they give her the "heebie-jeebies."

If you like, you could stop by the lab and take a look at the bee specimens I've collected! I've got three different varieties!

According to all known laws of aviation, there is no way a bee should be able to fly.

Its wings are too small to get its fat little body off the ground.

The bee, of course, flies anyway because bees don't care what humans think is impossible.

Yellow, black. Yellow, black. Yellow, black. Yellow, black.

Ooh, black and yellow!

Factually incorrect. A bee's wings are strong enough, agile enough, and complex enough to fly well within the reasonable laws of physics. A bee can easily carry itself as well as up to 80% of it's own body weight.

That movie irritates me to no end.

hi demetrius! i've started knitted and made you a hat!! i hope you like it...

Why thank you!

You know, I've been meaning to acquire an accessory to protect my cranium from the harsh weather. This might just do the trick!

happy spirits eve demetrius!! :}

Why thank you! You know, there's going to be a grand ol' party at the Saloon tonight! Robin and I were just about to head out! You should join us for the nerve-wracking festivities.

*holds up a small pepper rex* I hatched her from a dinosaur egg

PHENOMENAL!

I heard the farmers were making strides in the name of science, but I never imagined they'd accomplished feats such as this!

What you have there is a near-extinct species, my friend! She may be the last of her kind, so be sure to take care of her. I know plenty of laboratories that would pay a hefty price for just one of her eggs.

[germanium-nickel-uranium-sulfur]

I have a specimen to show you

Oh really? Go on, then! You have my full attention.

[germanium-nickel-uranium-sulfur]

youre my dad now, sorry sucks to suck. Robin signed the papers. Father daughter bonding time? Wanna show me lab stuff?

Hauh?

I mean... I hate to admit it, but I still haven't perfected this whole "step-father thing." I can barely comprehend Sebastian, as much as I'd want to.

But if you insist, I will do my best.

I suppose that is all I can do.

A satisfied visit from the Rock Crabs!

…

Surprised he did not keep one as a specimen to study.

<Yeah buddy that was fun>

Live long and prosper, sedimentary crustaceans.

The crabs are impressed!

[The crabs have prepared a gift for the clever wit of the scientist: 🎁]

Wow! A present for me, huh? Looks like having brains pays off, doesn't it?

How about we see what's inside, then!

The crabs shuffle along and bring forth to the scientist some wood.

The crabs challenge the scientist to move only one piece of wood to make the 5 into a 3.

Ah, this one is simple! I used to do little puzzles like this all the time when Maru was little. It's good brain training!
