>Actually. Come to think of it. Have you asked anybody else in your family about your uncle, or his house? Did you even tell anybody you were going?
No, and no. You don’t usually talk to your family, and you’ve nobody that would miss your presence. You had no friends before coming here, and you’re convinced that your family only invites you to family gatherings because it’s no longer socially acceptable to torment wild animals for entertainment.
>I suppose the dial indicates degrees of separation? 1 would exchange a glass of milk for a different glass of milk, while 3 makes a jug of milk, similar, and 6 makes a fistful of grass, far removed.
Interesting theory.
>Glass->grass. It changed the letter. Looks like the dial determines how similar the resulting object is(similar to a certain SCP).
Another interesting theory. But where does the ‘of Milk’ go?
>Try 4 or 5 to see if you can get a different drink out of it without turning it into something inedible.
>Further testing required (when not hosting guests) but we can rule out the echo chamber simply making more of whatever substance is in it. Actually this makes sense, if it is about echoing further and further back through an item's history. If that is true then one of the settings between 3 and 6 should turn milk into cow (maybe don't test that right now)
>Actually, it might be because cows turn grass into milk. If we turned the dial to 4 or 5 would produce a steak? An entire cow? Raw milk or the half-digested cud that cows store in their stomach, depending on if it was 4 or 5? Would a 7 produce dirt? Grass seeds? The possibilities are endless, as long as you're only looking backward in time. There's only so much you can do with milk, though, so let's stop for now.
All interesting ideas, certainly something to test. You’re a bit reluctant to try now, though. Wouldn’t want to spook your potential new friend.
>The echo chamber makes things? You were just testing it, to see how it functioned. Ask Gretchen if she wants to echo chamber anything, before heading home for the evening (because apparently it's become quite late?)
>All that to say, I don't think your going to get a non-milk drink out of it. Ask Gretchen if she would like a go at it.
>Tell her you're just experimenting. Why, is there a way to get specific things? You'd like a different drink.
 “I’m sure there must be a way to get specific things out of it, it’s just that nobody knows how to. You know what,”
She pulls out what looks to be some kind of agonised green bouncy ball.
“Kaspar made this. He said he made it while trying to ‘conceptually exploit the machine’. What did he call it again?”
She puts the tormented spheroid into the box and switches the dial to 2.
After the device does its thing, there are two of the things inside. She takes them out, one in each hand, stuffs one into her pocket, and places one in your false palm.
“Now we can both have one!”
