Thoughtful Mind Jar

A Story by Abishai100
"

Portrait of an emotionally sensitive American Homeland 'freelance' mathematician whose 'offshoot' tale of bound-romance may offer a beautiful (if tragic) memoir of genius-and-jellyfish.

"
Math fiction, inspired by A Beautiful Mind (Ron Howard). Thanks for reading (Happy Super Bowl stuff),

Mr. Amlan Satan stared at his home-studio notebook in his Homeland-Jersey suburbia area (Echelon), where he made incomplete-distances reading to the 'examination' of 3-variable systems for which each (unique) variable would be equated (in theory), or streamlined, to the others, by imaginary mirror-symmetry intuited values (somewhat extrapolated!) to make a perfect equilateral-triangle 'construct' for 3-D space-resonance of sorts. This sort of value-change systems 'examination' made Amlan, a brilliant/brooding freelance mathematician and number-theorist for private Earthling 'genius' fantasies, think of the choice-making of transforming numbers/placements for generated/extracted linear/predictable (overall) systems from otherwise 'chaotic' systems. He felt like a pensive man, and he realized his deep-thought imagination-intelligence burgeoned his pseudo-schizophrenic condition(s), and he reached out to friends online (Facebook-like!).



WAITRESS: Chicken-pie for a man scribbling numbers on napkins.
SATAN (Amlan): I'm a Slovak-Algerian Jersey-Catholic immigrant/citizen, love!
WAITRESS: A deep thinking prince thinking too deeply about math, eh?
SATAN: Wanna marry me to help me forget about the lack of emotion(s), lady?
WAITRESS: What do you have to offer, Mister Math at my diner?
SATAN: A nice home, TV, Saint Patrick's Day parades...maybe brain-food.
WAITRESS: I guess I can think of taking-on a man of thinking-worry, fool.
SATAN: Cool (Facebook-like).



Esmerelda, a waitress at a diner, married Amlan, and they had a tough-time together, despite having an initially quite wonderful romance. She gave him what he didn't have, trying to apply solid mathematics for numerous models of decision-making and variance-systems for streamlined causality/physics/extrapolations/exponentialism! He wondered what was making his brain schizophrenic, while his heart was warmed by her. He didn't know what to think now...and psychiatry wasn't helping him 'naturally-escape' from applied mathematics for Earthling field goals (ok).



ESMERELDA: I'm not spending Valentine's Day watching math videos, hubby!
SATAN (Amlan): This is what my mind needs. Ezzy...incomplete-arts for chaos.
ESMERELDA: Three variables made to look similar through mirror-illusions?
SATAN: Sure...funny mirrors!
ESMERELDA: You're coming undone, my hubby...I can't do this (cartoon-like).



Esmerelda ('Ezzy') departed...and Amlan Satan committed suicide. She visited his tombstone some years later and began to weep for a diner-prince who made her (at-first!) see the potential energy of finding the heart-feeling man holding a head-brain coming-undone because of the 'unnatural-chaos' of numbers and engineering theories for calculating too much symmetry (hmmm). She didn't know what to say at the cemetery and left her handkerchief there, after scribbling on it, "Left Earth for something more quiet and I pray...tiny like jellyfish!"
