Library, Wednesday

[era_two_triangle]

Peridot was an actual, literal gemstone with a hard-light projection for a body. Whatever was happening on the island this week, she was not only immune by virtue of being an inorganic object, she was also immune by virtue of finding everything involved with organic reproduction to be seriously icky.

Not that she knew what was going on, really. Some dogs had behaved a little too enthusiastically in class today. People were cranky on the radio. And there was a gremlin in the library attempting to convince her to run away with him and live in the sewers and cracks in the walls forever.

She was going to have to take a pass on that, but she appreciated the offer.

With a little perspective, Sidon realized that this week wouldn't be nearly so difficult for him if only it were happening back home, with his own people. As it was, he not only felt very confused about everything happening to him, but he felt very much like even if the feelings were similar, no one could really understand because they weren't Zora. He was surrounded by creatures that, while usually not that strange, were suddenly supremely foreign and odd, fascinating in their differences, both wildly alluring and incredibly grotesque.

And he felt confident in his conclusion that none of them had pursued any baffling, embarrassing encounters with a dolphin, either.

The only thing he could think to do, then, was to seek out the person who knew best who also wasn't even remotely human.

"Salutations, Peridot," Sidon smiled a little when he found her in the library, shifting quite a bit, because, even if he wasn't feeling so uncomfortable in his own skin right now, dry land was getting to be particularly difficult as the days went on. Plus, he didn't exactly know how to broach the subject in a more polite fashion, anyway. "Err...um....how are you today?"

Rufus had better things to do than care about the pollen. Thankfully, his body agreed with his mind's assessment.

(One day, he'd have to navigate the issue of having an heir when he had zero interest in that sort of thing but... today was not that day.)

"If you're going at the speed of light, does that mean you'd see things that are beside you as you collide with the photons that are moving perpendicular to you?"

Hi, Peridot.
