The Eggs

A lore overview & theory longpost :]

Let's start with a recap. The eggs were given by the Federation to the island residents to care for. A backstory was also given by Pato, saying the eggs were left behind by a dragon mother who flew off after the wall explosion. An egg has 2 lives, if it dies you get punished, if it's alive and happy you get a prize. But nobody really cares about a prize anymore, all the parents love their eggs sooo much that just being together with them is a prize. The eggs have developed unique, endearing personalities and have become a central part of the narrative in such a massive way that it'd take hours to describe. Some sadly passed on, and more eggs have joined the cast as new players arrived.

The Code Entity

A strange entity made of binary code began to hunt down the eggs, viciously attacking and bringing them all down to one life. The reason why is still unknown, but it seems to want the residents to leave the island. I'll make a separate lore post about this guy eventually, there's a lot to say theory-wise and a lot we still don't know about it.

The Strange Cracks

At one point, all the eggs were kidnapped from their homes in the night. The announcement of their return said they would be given back "unharmed" but they returned with odd cracks in them, as if they were injured. The eggs all acted unusually scared and extra fragile after the incident, and couldn't wear armor without pain. They slowly regained their confidence after a few days and went back to normal, along with a eggstatistics change saying they've "matured."

The Heaven Meetings

When an egg dies, the Federation gives the parents 5-10 minutes to say farewells in a white room. It's always really wholesome and emotional to watch. But lots of questions can be raised about how the Federation seem to have the power to revive an egg from the dead in the first place. If they can do it for 10 minutes, why can't they just... revive them permanently? q!Max asked his egg son Trump why he couldn't just leave during his meeting, and got answers alluding that the egg was trapped there. That "they" are too powerful, so he can't leave. What's really going on here? Are the dead eggs even dead?

Case of Richarlyson

The Brazilians noticed that their egg, Richarlyson had one smaller leg compared to the rest, as if he was underdeveloped. And strangely, he also had a weird substance left on him (visually shown as a slimeball) which they thought could be part of the mother dragon's placenta. q!Cellbit gave the sample to supercomputer SOFIA to analyze, the results being given a few days later. Turns out, the substance's composition had zero traces of DNA, it wasn't even biological. Instead, it was found to be some type of chemical preservation fluid... meaning Richarlyson was in some kind of stasis/storage before being given to the Brazilians, and rushed out at such short notice he couldn't even be cleaned off in time.

The Pomme DNA Test

A sample of the newest & youngest egg's DNA, Pomme, was given to SOFIA to analyze. The genetic results were:

65% Oxygen, 18% Carbon, 10% Hydrogen, 3% Nitrogen, 1.5% Calcium, 1% Phosphorus, Potassium, Sulfur, Sodium, Chlorine, Magnesium. These results are normal for a biological composition of a living creature. However, there were also traces of "unusual elements" in the DNA....

Silicon, Gold, Cobalt, Copper, Palladium, Cadmium, Bismuth, Uranium.

Silicon is used for making alloys.

Gold is a valuable metal.

Copper is a metal used as an electric conductor.

Palladium is a rare metal, also used for electronics.

Cadmium is a heavy metal used to make batteries and it's also toxic.

Bismuth is a crystalline metal again used for electronic appliances.

Uranium is literally radioactive and used for nuclear power.

HUH? These elements and metals are totally unnatural to find traces of in a living creature. edit: this is wrong, these elements and metals are common to find traces of in a living creature. However, SOFIA said they are unusual in the eggs. What does this mean..?

Connections

What if I told you there is a certain type of egg where it's normal to find metals all over?

Fabergé eggs.

Fabergé eggs are valuable decorative eggs made with crystals and rare metals like gold. And it just so happens that as a lead-up to the QSMP, Quackity Studios released a teaser image, with morse code inside leading to a document where many suspicious letters, including this one was found:

This potential connection can't be ignored. Real Fabergé eggs obviously aren't alive like our little eggs, but it's entirely possible that thanks to the traces of metals in their composition, the name is being used as a codeword to refer to them.

All of these things considered, don't forget that the eggs are still living creatures. The "unusual" parts in the genetic makeup are very few compared to oxygen, carbon, calcium, etc. Most of the weird ones do happen to relate to electronics and machines, but if anything, it's likely that the eggs could be cyborgs - a biological organism that's just enhanced with technological parts.

It's becoming more and more evident that the "dragon mother" story is a load of hogwash. The eggs might've been developed in a lab, and transported to the island by the Federation. Whatever intentions or experiment they have running, we don't know... but these poor eggs have no idea about any of this. They are innocent and being used.

They just existed one day, got adopted and began to know love. And no matter what happens, no matter what they really are, dragons or not, we and the parents will continue to love them <3

EJ’s Chemistry

For @papermunchingfella who wanted to know more about this!! Thank you for indulging me and my nerdiness!!

There’s a few warnings I need to point out: If you are easily sick to the stomach, don’t like to hear about explicit anatomy, or anything like that, DO NOT READ THIS!

We gonna put this through in order just like the human body! But with a lil bit different yk?

Step 1: Ingestion

I said this in my HC post that he has 3 tongues which aid in digestion. The shortest one covers his trachea while he swallows, the longest works like a normal tongue, and the other releases similar saliva. However, this saliva is a neutral substance (neither acidic nor basic).

Step 2: Chemical Digestion

So, he works the same way as us, he has this stomach with HCl- however it’s not nearly as diluted. Rather than simple epithelial tissue, he has columnar epithelium and adipose tissue lining his stomach to prevent issues with the hydrochloric acid.

His small intestine is where things start to differ. He doesn’t have a large intestine (which, for us, lets us reabsorb water). He just one has a giant intestine. The first three areas are just like ours, but then, when food hits the “large intestine” area it’s a lil different.

What his body will do is, rather than absorbing water, it will flood it with water instead. His intestine at this point is going to take it over to (what I call) an acid bladder.

Step 2.5: Decomposition

In this area, Ammonium Nitrate (an acidic salt) will dilute with the water and some Sulfuric acid (what’s found in car batteries). This is enough to completely dissolve whatever solid waste is left.

From that point it will move to the basic “kidneys” for the acid to be neutralized with sodium carbonate (a strong base). This ends with water (as a vapor), CO2 (gas) and sodium nitrate (aqueous).

Step 3: Recycle

The sodium nitrate is a food additive for more Nitrogen, so it and most of The aqueous solution will go right back to the intestine!

Step 4: Removal

Just like any other being, waste needs to be gotten rid of.

Note: in this winding amount of chemical changes, ammonia, chlorine gas, and nitrogen gas will come up too.

Salts of any kind are often removed with sweat.

CO2, H2O, Cl2, N2, and NH3 will come out through exhale

Any extra acids/bases will get pushed into his mouth through saliva which he will drool out when he eats.

Extra Organs Explained

There is an acid organ that literally just holds it. It has Nitric Acid in it (HNO3).

The basic organ has Ammonium Hydroxide (NH4OH) in it. This is a very weak base.

Sorry if this wasn’t exactly great- there are a few gaps. So… yeah! I hope this was Alr!

Also, you can send me asks! I’m bored all the time I’d love to tell yall more abt my weird hyper fixations!!!

[drgregmousebites]

The following is the list of ingredients listed on the Internet as required for the manufacture of methamphetamine:

Ephedrine (cold and allergy medicine)

Pseudoephedrine (cold and allergy medicine)

Alcohol (Rubbing/gasoline additive)

Toluene (brake cleaner)

Ether (engine starter)

Sulfuric Acid (drain cleaner)

Methanol (gasoline additive)

Lithium (camera batteries)

Trichloroethane (gun scrubber)

Anhydrous Ammonia (farm fertilizer)

Sodium Hydroxied (lye)

Red Phosphorous (matches)

Iodine (Veterinarian products)

Sodium metal (can be made from lye)

Table/Rock salt

Kerosene

Gasoline

Muriatic Acid

Campfire fuel

Paint thinner

Acetone

Red Phosphorous (flammable solid) and iodine are mixed. Crystals produce hydrogen iodine gas (corrosive) and phosphine gas (toxic), which is immediate health and safety hazards. When the process is complete, the reaction solution is then finished with lye and solvents.

Or, hear me out, I can just buy meth.

At MIT, Clare Grey stresses battery development to electrify the planet

At MIT, Clare Grey stresses battery development to electrify the planet

“How do we produce batteries at the cost that is suitable for mass adoption globally, and how do you do this to electrify the planet?” Clare Grey asked an audience of over 450 combined in-person and virtual attendees at the sixth annual Dresselhaus Lecture, organized by MIT.nano on Nov. 18. “The biggest challenge is, how do you make batteries to allow more renewables on the grid.”

These questions emphasized one of Grey’s key messages in her presentation: The future of batteries aligns with global climate efforts. She addressed sustainability issues with lithium mining and stressed the importance of increasing the variety of minerals that can be used in batteries. But the talk primarily focused on advanced imaging techniques to produce insights into the behaviors of materials that will guide the development of new technology. “We need to come up with new chemistries and new materials that are both more sustainable and safer,” she said, as well as think about other issues like secondhand use, which requires batteries to be made to last longer.

Better understanding will produce better batteries

“Batteries have really transformed the way we live,” Grey said. “In order to improve batteries, we need to understand how they work, we need to understand how they operate, and we need to understand how they degrade.”

Grey, a Royal Society Research Professor and the Geoffrey Moorhouse-Gibson Professor of Chemistry at Cambridge University, introduced new optical methods for studying batteries while they are operating, visualizing reactions down to the nanoscale. “It is much easier to study an operating device in-situ,” she said. “When you take batteries apart, sometimes there are processes that don’t survive disassembling.”

Grey presented work coming out of her research group that uses in-situ metrologies to better understand different dynamics and transformational phenomena of various materials. For example, in-situ nuclear magnetic resonance can identify issues with wrapping lithium with silicon (it does not form a passivating layer) and demonstrate why anodes cannot be replaced with sodium (it is the wrong size molecule). Grey discussed the value of being able to use in-situ metrology to look at higher energy density materials that are more sustainable such as lithium sulfur or lithium air batteries.

The lecture connected local structure to mechanisms and how materials intercalate. Grey spoke about using interferometric scattering (iSCAT) microscopy, typically used by biologists, to follow how ions are pulled in and out of materials. Sharing iSCAT images of graphite, she gave a shout out to the late Institute Professor and lecture namesake Mildred Dresselhaus when discussing nucleation, the process by which atoms come together to form new structures that is important for considering new, more sustainable materials for batteries.

“Millie, in her solid-state physics class for undergrads, nicely explained what’s going on here,” Grey explained. “There is a dramatic change in the conductivity as you go from diluted state to the dense state. The conductivity goes up. With this information, you can explore nucleation.”

Designing for the future

“How do we design for fast charging?” Grey asked, discussing gradient spectroscopy to visualize different materials. “We need to find a material that operates at a high enough voltage to avoid lithium plating and has high lithium mobility.”

“To return to the theme of graphite and Millie Dresselhaus,” said Grey, “I’ve been trying to really understand what is the nature of the passivating layer that grows on both graphite and lithium metal. Can we enhance this layer?” In the question-and-answer session that followed, Grey spoke about the pros and cons of incorporating nitrogen in the anode.

After the lecture, Grey was joined by Yet-Ming Chiang, the Kyocera Professor of Ceramics in the MIT Department of Materials Science and Engineering, for a fireside chat. The conversation touched on political and academic attitudes toward climate change in the United Kingdom, and audience members applauded Grey’s development of imaging methods that allow researchers to look at the temperature dependent response of battery materials.

This was the sixth Dresselhaus Lecture, named in honor of MIT Institute Professor Mildred Dresselhaus, known to many as the “Queen of Carbon Science.” “It’s truly wonderful to be here to celebrate the life and the science of Millie Dresselhaus,” said Grey. “She was a very strong advocate for women in science. I’m honored to be here to give a lecture in honor of her.”
