Given my fixation on things zombie, @mattress2448 posed the following question to me:
If a vampire bites a zombie, will it turn into a zombie or will the zombie turn into a vampire?
My initial response was that the vampire would get zombified. This assessment was challenged by several folks, so let's get all scientifical about it.
Since (shockingly I might add) there are few zombie or vampire related operands in math, I had to introduce the following:
vv = vampire bite
\\\ = zombie scratch
mm = zombie bite
Now, I believe the following are not contested
Zombie (Z1) mm Human (H) = Zombie (Z2)
Zombie (Z1) /// Human (H) = /// Human (H)
Vampire (V1) vv Human (H) = Vampire (V2)
Since the second equation about does not yield an outcome relevant to the question - we discard it. But we did get to use the way cool /// symbol. Now, solving for human...
mm H = Z2-Z1
vv H = V2-V1
Divide by vampire bite
(mm H) / vv = (Z2-Z1) / vv
H = (V2/V1) / vv
Substitute for H
mm (V2/V1 / vv) / vv = (Z2-Z1) / vv
Cross multiply
mm (V2/V1 / vv) / (Z2-Z1).....
Well... OK, lemme work on this some more....
Hmm. I'm interested in what your findings will be. The Underworld people created Lycans so I suppose there must be an equation out there somewhere.
