Maybe I know a guy. [ Or girl. Whatever. It still makes him more of an expert than Andyr. ] Anyway, I guess it's just habit thinking about things in the water and associating them with you. Figured the books in the library wouldn't have anything like that in 'em.
[ now imagining steve rogers in a tutu, and underwater. this has become strange. moving on. ]
sure as shit don't have ballerina whales, you're right about that. [ there's a 'thank you' lingering somewhere at the edge of what he's typed, maybe puts it in, decides it's too much, and deletes it. moving on. ] so where's this whale from? is (s)he a french ballerina, a russian one, east coast? i need some background before i start handing out names.
Did anyone ever tell you we were on a planet where they could fly? [ He hopes that doesn't make him too mad, knowing he will probably never see them. ] Classically trained French whale. Got any ideas?
[ There are too many reasons he doesn't choose Russian. East coast might have been a better choice, but he likes French too. It just makes sense to him talking to Andyr. ]
it's ok. should probably see a normal whale first anyway.
do we have books about it?
[ some day steve's going to walk into andyr's room unannounced before he has time to shove something in front of the 'drawings of fish' wall, complete with their names written in the corners, and andyr's going to feel awkward as fuck. ]
[ To be fair, he hasn't actually looked too closely at the things Andyr might or might not have on his wall. He usually makes a point to slip in when his other roommates are there, leave what he needs to and then goes. Of course, at this rate, that might not be the case anymore. He'll just have to think of more creative ways to get Andyr to open up to him. ] They might have something on Ceta in Navigation, but I'm not sure.
[ honestly, he's just been eating up all the books in the library that cover different planets and universes. it's just so interesting to him, that this stuff would've been fiction back home, but it's reality here. and there's so many places that just aren't his world. ]

[ and then there's that, the bit of worry that was there last time andyr needled him about one of these dorky things. god, what a marshmallow. ]
