What's with all the numbers?

[autos_da_fe]

I'm just gathering a little data.

...Can you count?

[ HONEST QUESTION, LUFFY. ]

[ihasastrawhat]

Yeah! I think so! But I don't have to that much.

[So he may or may not remember.]

Why?

[autos_da_fe]

Well, you probably wouldn't remember how long you usually wait before getting electrocuted.

That song is now in my head damn you.

[mintroyalcowboy]

You get zapped yourself yet? 'urts like a bitch and a 'alf.

You're welcome~~

[autos_da_fe]

Eighteen days.

And yeah, it did.

It is now playing on repeat.

[mintroyalcowboy]

Longer zhan mine went without pulling zhat trick. Thirteen 'ere.

lmaooo awesomeeee

[autos_da_fe]

Thirteen? Lucky number.

[lovelyscientist]

It's never happened to me, but... from what I've seen I believe the general allotment of time is two weeks or so.

Were you shocked, sir?

[autos_da_fe]

Yeah, and it looks like this might come in use after all.

[lovelyscientist]

I... suppose? I didn't know shocking comes in use. Perhaps as a way to keep time, I suppose...

[autos_da_fe]

Well, I'm sure we could find other things to do with this kind of information.

[whiteduplicity]

[Has been shocked... about seven times now.]

Ah... it's usually around two weeks. But sometimes I can't remember, either.

[autos_da_fe]

...You just black out for a few weeks at a time?

[whiteduplicity]

Well, it can be difficult to keep track of the exact amount of days in between shocks sometimes...

[autos_da_fe]

Guess so, but you'd start to remember the pattern, right?

[skullcracking]

Two weeks is what I heard. [And she's had it happen enough to know it's true, too.]

[autos_da_fe]

I guess it'd be too much to ask if the hours matched up.

[skullcracking]

What do you mean?

[autos_da_fe]

Fourteen days is...

[ thinks about it ]

336 hours.

Don't suppose anyone's got it memorized that far.
