What do you know.

A wrong answer.

Sadly, I can't judge you on your favorite number being mercury.

[bombvault]

Ohhh no.
But wasn't that the game you were playing?
Don't be shy now!

I know numbers very well.

Elements, I'm only a little knowledgeable about.

But ... I'll try it! Mercury being your favorite number. I will have to call this choice both "wrong and bad." Bad in terms of it's not even a number, how dare you! You have so many beautiful numbers to choose from and you choose mercury. Apologize to the numbers that you've scorned, etc. etc.!

I'm sooo sorry to all of the numbers I've offended. It's just life would be boring if everyone gave you a number just because you asked!

But now that I think about it isn't the atomic number of mercury 80?
Is that still a wrong answer?
It's not at all my favorite number!

I can honestly say it wouldn't be. I'm someone that has a great affection for numbers, actually.

[ Though, he really fucked himself over. He can't forget numbers as soon as they're said, so he's definitely going to remember everyone's choice and it's going to stick with him. Will he bring it up in every conversation? No. It's just something that's going to be in the back/front of his head every time he talks to them in the future.

... fun.

Congratulations, he played himself. ]

You're correct! Mercury's atomic number is 80.
At least on Earth.
I don't know if it is in other dimensions.
Wouldn't that be interesting if elements had different atomic numbers.
I wonder how that would change their existence.
But anyway!!
It's not the wrong answer.
