Is there sound in space?
Brb.


[ stiles tosses the covers aside, kicks his legs a little to free them, and then - gets up and leaves, using the light from his phone to guide his way out of the bedroom. is he going to look for the fucking cat to consult it about vacuum cleaners? maybe.

anyway. he's still texting. ]


All I'm saying is that like.
Vibrating molecules are just vibrating molecules. It's only a sound because the molecules vibrate our ear drums which is what sends the signal to the brain and translates the vibration into what we consider to be a sound.
But what if we were all deaf?
Would a sound be a sound?
