Does This Even Have A Fandom. Is It Just Me? Hellooo

my favourite feature of english is how unafraid it is to break itself if given the chance

Consider Chromic Chloride and Chlorophyll

So in the most recent 650K stream it was sort of confirmed that Test Tube is fluorescein. Now to the uninitiated, when you look up fluorescein you get images like this:

So of course it makes sense that people think that this makes sense, she is ALSO a bright green color right? So it fits perfectly. However there's some issues.

For one, fluorescein only glows this brightly under UV light. Under normal inside lighting it looks more like this:

And under sunlight more like this:

While under the sun it does look quite green, it's still pretty yellow, no? And I wouldn't assume that her inside lighting perfectly matches the sun.

And Test Tube isn't "mostly yellow with green glow"! She isn't Mtn Dew, she is more like the pure green on a computer screen or something (at least in her second season):

So what else could she be? For a second I will be ignoring the weird staining properties her liquid has an focusing solely on color. (Though to be fair to the team, Fluorescein stains literally anything and everything)

Initially I thought of salt solutions, since that was what first came to mind when I thought of naturally green liquids, and I found my contender there. Introducing Chromic Chloride!

I feel like that's pretty dang close to her green, no? Furthermore, it's not bright green under UV, that's just how Chromic Chloride looks like. To me, the second to last vial looks the closest (and a good argument could be made that the third to last vial also looks like her third season appearance)

And then I discovered chlorophyll:

Look at that color. That is literally Test Tube right there. Now, most chlorophyll looks muddy because all the other plant stuff hasn't been filtered out, but pure chlorophyll like this is a really pure, really Test Tube-y green color.

I think Chlorophyll is the best candidate for a Test Tube color (and it's pretty good at staining stuff, even if it's not the ungodly stain that fluorescein is).

Oh, and fun fact, Chlorophyll fluoresces bright red under UV!

can we beat this guy with hammers

the feeling of waking up at 5am as a kid and you are all alone and can do whatever you want is a feeling that i will forever cherish

Im sorry i saw your post about test tube being chlorophyll and read "mountain dew test tube" which immediately made me remember this edit my friend made

HEHEHHEHEHEE LMAO

some rando doodles I did yesterday at 2 am

I made test tube in desmos. I couldn't help it.

Took me the better part of two hours of just smashing equations in by hand.

A bit of the code

And here's the actual link if you want to take a look (the inconsistency in line width has to do with the zoom level being variable. click on the actual link if you want to see with better line thickness)

Man I really miss these days

a bunch of clover ships :)

every time you bleed, a little bit of your blood vapourizes. And it spreads to the atmosphere. You litterally inhale others and your blood on the daily. gross.
