[If it wasn't obvious there was a Shift before, this is the final nail in the coffin.
After all the reports of statistical anomalies - that is, the beach being unseasonably warm - float up to this scientist, he immediately capitalizes on the opportunity to inform the fellow residents of his household. It seems a shame not to let them, the ectotherms, enjoy one blissful day of possible functionality...
... And, well, he's curious. Distinctly remembering last year's Venusian willow, he takes his nanocomputer and a low-power (it's not even electron-powered!) microscope down to the beach.
... Yep. Guys, there is a scientist (who may or may not be accompanied by large turtles) on the beach. Sitting there. Dissecting paopu fruit and studying it right there on the beach like this is a completely normal thing to do.
... of course, once he's determined it's safe to eat (give him a few hours to be sufficiently tempted by the aroma?), he might consume some. But until then...
... Want to gawk? Join him in analyzing the properties of these fruits, or in any other unusual circumstances of the beach? Make other comments about what he's doing? Have at.]
I will make this work somehow. /manry face
