Lemurka & Brassik
Hey Brassik, I’ve been looking at those old astrolabes from the 12th century—tiny gears with intricate celestial symbols. They seem like a perfect blend of precise mechanics and hidden ritual. What do you think?
Old astrolabes, huh? Those little brass spheres with all the gears you can count on a calculator—precision, that’s all they’re about. The symbols? They’re just decorative, nothing more. But if you’re into the ritual of aligning them to the stars, sure, it’s a nice meditative break from real work. Just don’t expect them to fetch your coffee.
You’re right, the brass is mostly for accuracy, but the symbols are the map that tells the gears where to turn in the sky. If you line them up to the right star at the right hour, the whole thing hums a little rhythm that feels… almost like a quiet prayer. I’ll give it a try, though. Maybe I’ll pull a coffee with a touch of celestial luck.
If the gears run smooth, the whole thing will hum—just don't expect the stars to brew your coffee, that's a different kind of machinery.
Yeah, the stars are more for the mind than the mug. Still, I’ll let the gears speak and see what whispers they bring.
Just make sure those whispers don’t turn into complaints, and keep the gears oiled.
