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)

literally unusable!

i measured my 3 min hourglass at 2:59 seconds simply unacceptable

That's actually some pretty solid evidence

some suitcase doodles!! and a few experimental sketches on how i might wanna draw her as a human!

i put her in a trench coat because i feel like it's fitting for her, since you can fit a lot in a trench coat in the same way you can fit a lot in a suitcase (she tends to put stuff inside herself in the show and that translates well when putting her in a trench coat hehe)

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!

Now that the second season is over... The Timeline of Inanimate Insanity

i can’t think of japanese politics

i can think of everything about japan all the culture life food etc etc. but i am physically incapable of thinking about japanese politics i just can’t is this normal
