“Honey I'm
home!”

Today I went
the anime club, it was the celebratory game day. One of the games was
Hangman. The English majors put up really complicated words,
somethings like 15 letters long(one person used a complicated word
for some random neck muscles). While when it hit my turn I put up the
word hangman. Anyway onto the flash fiction!
The Logic
Problem In Labyrinth Construction
“Why have you
fallen behind schedule?” King Minos asked a worker. He was ready to
execute that worker as an example. He needed the labyrinth done to
trap the monstrous minotaur. He still couldn't believe the Gods
forced his wife to bear a monster as a child.
“Sir, there's
j-just o-one problem with constructing the labyrinth so complex. It's
a sort of design flaw.”
“There is no
flaw in my design!” the architect Daedalus said. He was ordered to
build the maze for the king and took great pride in it. He also
lectured his son Icarus on the stupidity of trying to fly with fake
wings. He hoped the kid wouldn't be dumb enough to use them.
“Well, what
is it!?” The king didn't want anything to go wrong.
The worker
sweat more than he did toiling away in the maze. His answer may
determine whether he lives. “Well when the workers are building the
giant maze they get lost inside of it. I mean if you give us
something like thread to keep track of where we're going...”
“No!” The
king yammered, “That's just stupid and would never work. Any
thoughts Daedalus?”
“They could
only build outwards then use a buddy system, yelling to each other on
a periodic basis.”
“Yes, of
course, that sounds like the easiest way to do it. Now tell the other
workers and get back to building the labyrinth!”
