[Zizhen appears in the video as he always does, wearing his red Baling Ouyang sect robes, hair put up in a top knot with its usual cap. When Zizhen starts the video though, he looks rather alarmed. Something must have happened for him to be this way]

I don't understand, Prisma! There must be some black magic at work, but I don't even know what it could be! It's just frightening!

[He adjusts the camera to show... the microwave in the kitchen]

It takes greater than five minutes for water to boil on this thing called a stove, but this "microwave" can boil the same amount of water in under five! This... this is madness! And those already made foods that have been kept in the ice - there are two details for cooking. Over 30 minutes in the oven, but only five in the "microwave"!

[He's saying microwave like he doesn't believe that's what it could be called]

Surely this must be a cursed item!

[Someone please tell him to calm down about the microwave... or egg him on]

[ There are a lot of potential responses to that, but he's going to go with the ever so helpful: ]

A gentleman should stay out of the kitchen.

Cursed? I do not believe it holds any evil, but I am still not acquainted with all the things this world has to offer.

That's not all, I found out if you cut a grape almost in half and lay it out before you put it in there, something amazing happens.

[ this poor ancient chinese guy ]

yeah dude, it's totally cursed. be careful with that thing.

and don't put anything metal in it either or you'll summon a fire-spitting demon

It's not cursed. While I do not know the exact mechanics behind how they work, they are perfectly safe to use.

It's because they work completely differently. A microwave uses electromagnetic radiation which causes fast acceleration of molecules to create heat.

The oven uses either electric or gas to heat up the entire inside and then cook the food.

Essentially a microwave boils the water inside a thing and moves out, and an oven bakes from the outside moving in.

[Since he knows some of these facts he felt like sharing.]

But that’s how microwaves work... (・・;)

It's not cursed.

[Probably. He's not actually sure, but why bother admitting that?]

It just heats things up, like a really big and clunky fire talisman. It's not that impressive.

[buddingromantic]

[He is. He also just recently attempt this thing called a microwave]

I have not. How would one exorcise something like that?

[buddingromantic]

That is true yes. But it still doesn't explain the microwave.

[buddingromantic]

I am still learning about them as well, Daozhang. This is the one that is the most concerning to me.

[buddingromantic]

[You have his curiosity!]

What? What happens to it?

[buddingromantic]

[The life of a guy without even electricity... everything strange at some point]

I knew it!

A fire-spitting demon? I didn't know it was THAT dangerous!

[buddingromantic]

It's not? It seems so otherworldly

[nipzips]

oh yeah, super dangerous. seriously though, don't ever put a fork in there or anything.

[ it's funny to tease people sometimes but he doesn't actually want any microwave-related accidents. ]

anyway, back home i heard of an old lady putting their dog in there and the poor pup exploded

[buddingromantic]

[Most of the technical stuff goes right over his head because he has no idea about different wave lengths and what they do, but having an explanation does stop him from being alarmed by it]

So it... cooks things from the inside out? That still sounds very odd... but it is safe?

[buddingromantic]

[These old things? You should see what his father and other sect leaders wear]

It is?

[buddingromantic]

So... it's a fire talisman? But it doesn't create fire, Sect Leader.

Well... may be. Someone said if you put metal in it, it summons fire-spitting demon.

omg I <3 u

[buddingromantic]

I won't. I will make sure not to do that.

What?! Why would someone do something like that to an animal?

he is here to make more friends from ancient china .......

[nipzips]

there are lots of people who are shitty to animals ...

i heard that she just wanted to dry the little guy after a bath though. idk ... she's old .... it's just really unfortunate ......

well, he wisely knows not to put metal in the microwave now

[buddingromantic]

It is unfortunate because animals make our lives easier in so many way, even if it is only as a friend.

The poor animal. That is a shame to have happened.

Magic is the root of science and technology so there's no reason to fear new developmENTS. Of course I can understand how they might seem intimidating at FIRST.

[despairing_hope]

[Sadly Komaeda was never good at realizing when to be simpler.]

More or less. As long as it's not damaged and you follow instructions. Also don't put metal in it. It's mostly used to reheat things, so I wouldn't be too concerned with it.

[Hello, here's a 70's man who also doesn't exactly like the microwave box.]

You know, I wasn't going to say anything about this thing, but since you brought it up, I don't exactly "trust" having my food prepared in one of those. Just saying.
