Text reads, 'Given time, they'll even make a new framework all of their own.' A smaller version of Essek and Caleb contentedly snuggle. Above them is a heart, which contains the colors of the queerplatonic relationship flag and the coordinates of the cylindrical coordinate system, ρ, φ, and z.

Text continuing from the previous slide reads, '...and a fair amount of practice...' Beside the text, Essek slyly whispers something to Caleb in Caleb's coordinates. Caleb, blushing profusely, clarifies what Essek means in Essek's own coordinates. Essek confirms Caleb's guess in Essek's own coordinates. Text continuing from the previous slide reads, '...they'll find each other on the same page.' Beside the text, Caleb teasingly poses Essek a problem. After thinking a moment, Essek amusedly provides Caleb the solution he's after. Caleb confirms the solution.

Text reads, 'It will take some trial and error...' Caleb and Essek have three threads of conversation. The first thread in effect reads: Essek: ...What is 'z'? Caleb: z is like x. z is like y. z is perpendicular to y is perpendicular to z. Essek: 'Perpendicular' means 'not'? Caleb: Perpendicular does not mean 'not'. ...And also z is not y is not z. Essek: What is 'perpendicular'? (Due to some linguistic quirks, even their logical symbols don't always match up) The second thread in effect reads: Caleb: What is 'φ'? Essek: φ... It's like if x is zero, and then x goes to π/2. Caleb: What's 'π'?? Essek: π is circumference divided by 2r. Caleb: What is 'circumference'? Essek: Circumference is 2πr, therefore π is circumference divided by 2r. Caleb: ... (Essek tries to phrase things in a way Caleb might understand, only for them to get stuck in circular reasoning) The third thread in effect reads: Caleb: So x is not r? Essek: x is r if and only if r is x. Caleb: Is r equal to x plus y plus z? Essek: It's not because r is always a positive value. Caleb: r squared, then? r squared is equal to all of x plus y plus z squared? Essek: *expands Caleb's suggestion to see all its pieces* Caleb: *asks if the parts that are not squared away are needed or unnecessary* Text continuing from the previous slide reads, '...but with some common ground...' A brief exchange in effect reads: Caleb: Do you have a 'central reference point'? Essek: Is a 'central reference point' an origin? Both: Oh! They're the same! Text continuing from the previous slide reads, '...plenty of creativity and patience...' The following steps circle the text counterclockwise: Both: *agree upon an origin point and simplify their frames of reference (setting their respective polar axes (θ and z) each to 0)* Essek: r is a distance measured away from the origin. Essek: φ is a measure of the angle r makes with respect to its 'original' position. Caleb: What if we call r's original position where there is no φ 'x' as a fixed axis? Essek: If x is where φ is 0, then it's -x where φ is π. Caleb: So when φ = π/2, that's perpendicular to φ = π. Essek: *realizes this is what Caleb meant when he said x is perpendicular to y* Essek: φ is φ no matter where it's drawn in the angle. Caleb, aside: Is the angle made by the x and y axis equal to φ? Essek: That is only the case when φ = π/2. Caleb: *names an arbitrary point using his own coordinates* Essek: *names the same point using his own coordinates* Both: *figure out how to convert between their coordinates using trigonometry* (In short, Caleb and Essek learn how to translate each other)

Text reads, 'They sometimes struggle to understand each other because of their different frames of reference.' Caleb and Essek stand aside having a conversation and look confused and skeptical. Their conversation in effect reads: Caleb: So x? Essek: ...'x'? You mean r? Caleb: Not r? Like a line between X1 and X2. Essek: What? So r? Caleb: What? (Essek's only reference for a 'linear' coordinate is r, and Caleb's reference for coordinates does not include the letter r.)

Text reads, 'Here is Caleb’s understanding of his own attraction seen through Essek’s framework.' Beside the text, Caleb's cube is displayed in Essek's spherical coordinate system; the geometry between the two looks incongruent. Below both is the conversion of Caleb's 3D rectangular coordinates into Essek's spherical coordinates, which looks somewhat complicated, meaning Caleb may have a hard time expressing himself using Essek's framework.

A slide focused on Essek. Text reading 'This is Essek' points to Essek. Essek says, "hie". Beside Essek is an illustration of the spherical coordinate system. The coordinate system is labeled: 'This is Essek's framework for understanding attraction.' The same slide as prior, but now Essek says, "(r, θ, φ)" and "waow". Beside Essek is an illustration of the spherical coordinate system with a centered purple sphere and its methods of coordinate measurement noted. The coordinate system is labeled: 'This is Essek's understanding of his own attraction.' Essek's spoken coordinates r, θ, and φ easily match the geometry of both his framework and his understanding of his own attraction, meaning he can express himself with relative ease.

A slide focused on Caleb. Text reading 'This is Caleb' points to Caleb. Caleb says, "hallo". Beside Caleb is an illustration of the 3D rectangular coordinate system. The coordinate system is labeled: 'This is Caleb's framework for understanding attraction.' The same slide as prior, but now Caleb says, "(x,y,z)" and "woagh". Beside Caleb is an illustration of the 3D rectangular coordinate system with a centered orange cube. The coordinate system is labeled: 'This is Caleb's understanding of his own attraction.' Caleb's spoken coordinates x, y, and z easily match the geometry of both his framework and his understanding of his own attraction, meaning he can express himself with relative ease.

A slideshow title page reading: Modes of Attraction with Touching Sentiments Shadowgast By Chanse CR Aspec Fest 2025 Essek, a purple elf with white hair, looks aside bashfully. Caleb, a pale human with red hair, blushes happily. Essek and Caleb are illustrated in a geometric style.
