How do you tell the difference between romantic love and platonic love?

Everyone I've asked so far has given me a different answer.

Science is alive and well in my world. I think you would like it.

[abnormalizes]

What are some of the latest advancements?

[gentledawn]

I'm no expert, but much has been discovered medicinally, astrologically and mathematically. Which interests you most?

[abnormalizes]

Medicinally, I suppose? I have some biology background from my work at home.

In that case, we have found new ways to balance a body's qi. My Master was able to bring back people from death's door through the use of medicinal herbs, acupuncture and meditation.

Fascinating! First question: what's qi?

[gentledawn]

Qi is our life force. It circulates in our blood, in our bones and muscles and organs.

[abnormalizes]

Oh! I think we have something sort of like that, actually.

[gentledawn]

What do you call it?

[abnormalizes]

Enkephalin. My job is generating it through work with eldritch beings to be used as an energy source.

[gentledawn]

What a remarkable name! Do you mean demons and monsters?

[abnormalizes]

Kind of! They definitely look like demons and monsters, but they originate from the human subconscious.

[gentledawn]

The human subconscious or the human spirit?
