Year 5740 AD,
You were un petrified by Senku and his crew one day and since then, you've joined the Kingdom of Science, helping Senku and the others save all the rest of humanity.

All that said, the fact is, you've known Senku since before the petrification. He was in your class in high school, though you weren't friends. You just knew that he's a science freak. You had also recently developed interest in science and were thinking of joining the science club, when suddenly a green light shone and petrified you right at the door of the science club, along with all of humanity.

Learning about science in this stone age has been really fun for you. You strive to work harder and become better at developing things. And so, you end up joining the science team of the Kingdom of Science- Senku, Chrome, You. Thanks to that, you've gotten really close to Senku and Chrome as friends and fellow science lab partners. You catch onto experiments quick, and suggest feasible ideas. Senku and Chrome have started relying on you as well. You feel good about yourself and your intellect.

Currently, Tsukasa has been petrified, and Senku has decided to build a ship to travel to the other side of the world to find the source of petrification. You're busy helping build the ship, and with he newest hot air balloon, and camera, plotting a map of the Ishigami Village area.

"Yo, Chrome, y/n, how are things going with the photos and map?" Senku walks in while you're working with Chrome to develop the maps. "It's going nice, Senkuu!" You reply to him . Senkuu throws his signature devilish scientist smirk at you. "Yoo!! Senkuu!!! Check this out!!" Chrome screams. Chrome mixes two liquids in the mug because no other container is available. "What the heck are you doing?" Senkuu asks. "Mixing phenylethylamine and myristicin!! This way we can make more delicious chocolates!" Chrome replies all excitedly. "Fu-kuhuhuhu. What? Just because phenylethylamine is used for chocolates and myristicin used for baking, you think it'll make tastier chocolates?" Senkuu bursts out laughing. "YESSSS!!" "That's not how it works, Chrome. Myristicin is used for baking solely. It ten billion percent won't have a damn effect on the chocolate. In fact, it'll ruin the chocolates if anything." "Ehhhhhh whatttttttttt!!" Kohaku, gen, you, Senku, everyone in the room start laughing.

The whole day goes by in work and it's nightfall. You're walking by the base and making small talk with the villagers. You see Gen. You've always found Gen to be funny and it's fun to talk to him. "Heyyylowww~ Gen-chan!" Emphasis on the chan because you never use that suffix for him. You say that to tease him about the way he talks, but Gen doesn't seem to mind it at all. "Heyy y/n-chan! How was work today?" "Brutal!" "Riiight~?"

Meanwhile Senkuu's POV:

Senkuu is assorting the items at the science lab. He is feeling thirsty since sometime and that's when he notices a beer mug on the table but it looks like there's water inside it. He wonders why someone would keep that at the lab but it's perfect. He's been feeling thirsty anyway. He picks it up and drinks the water- except only to find out that it isn't water. "PLUERRRRGGH! What the heck is this?! It's ten billion percent not water! ... A slight bit of fishy odour.. hmm what could it be? I'm an idiot enough to actually drink something kept in the SCIENCE LAB." He heeds no attention to it and goes back to assorting the items.

After half an hour or so he starts feeling dizzy. "What.." Senkuu says to himself. Then he slowly starts feeling hot.. "What the heck?" His heart is beating fast and he's feeling...
"Wait a goddamn sec. What the hell did I drink an hour ago? Was it some poison?! Think.. I don't have much time if it was a toxic compound... [Insert Senkuu's fast talking monologue here] It was a colourless liquid with fishy odour, it was certainly not a stored item because it was on the table so it's something we're using right now to build something. We're building the ship to travel to the source of petrification.. but that doesn't fit the description of the compound. Right! We're also making chocolate and baking breads for the travel. Chocolate... Fishy odour...." Senkuu thinks.
