Entry #A-20: "Anthropocentricities"

[originalprodigy]

This question is directed toward the alchemists in Adstringendum in particular, but the message has been left public on the off-chance that someone else would be willing to assist with a particular undertaking of mine.

I'm looking to obtain a supply of natural gas, butane, propane, liquefied petroleum, or any other type of flammable gas.

Flammable?
Ooh! Are you gonna blow stuff up?

...

Why do people keep assuming I'm going to "blow stuff up?" What do I look like?

[waverly_wiz]

You look like some guy who hasn't gotten enough sleep. Plus flammable? Come on. I put two an two together, dude.

I do not think such things are easy to attain in this city. In fact, they are beyond merely difficult, though I would not go so far as to call it impossible.

[originalprodigy]

That's what I'm counting on. "Difficult" is not the worst that can happen.

[vile_queen]

Most true.

Wood burning stoves are not as efficient as others, nor do they heat as thoroughly, but they are more reliable than a campfire.

Okay, I'm not an alchemist, Ryuzaki-san, but I think those are rather rare here in general.
Maybe looking at the Edges of the Safezone would be the best thing to do, for unusual - and often helpful - things are not discovered if located there quite often.

Unless I can find them pre-contained, that's no good. I can't carry flammable gas on my own.
