what did the sun say to the moon during a solar eclipse

No, what?

"stop mooning me!"

[Heh. HEH.]

[....So this is the man he made out with. Okay.]

[Thank God he's spent years dealing with his father's and Lavi's terrible jokes, so he can deal]

Ha- Good afternoon, Clay. :)

[brb laughing at his own terrible joke for a minute, you totally laughed too don't lie]

hey hey :D i bet all the dangos gone by now right

[MAYBE A LITTLE...]

Yeah, they are. I tried to make them last as long as possible! ...But it turns out I'm really not good at that when it comes to dango. [They were so gone within 24 hours]

What about you? How've you been?

Edited (I CAN DO WHAT I WANT.) 2015-09-13 21:20 (UTC)

lol i figured

i've been good! i've taken a break from the races to explore the waystation and write about everything i see. i'm keeping a log of everything we visit!

[You know, except for the planets and waystations before he got here since that's kind of impossible]

Wow, you're writing about the waystations too?

[ Allen barely noticed them anymore. To him, they were kind of slotted in the same category as train stations and seaports: pretty similar no matter where you go ]

Discover anything interested about them?

i've ben trying 2 figure out if theres a connection between stuff that goes on there and the planets they're close by. like why are these racers here and not on a waystation futher away? y was one like a casino when the planet wasn't like that at all? one had a holodeck even!

they all seem the sameish but who made them? each planet's civilizations are all different/diverse from each other so they could't have all communicated w/each other to make them or did they? or did atroma make them for us

[LOOK EVEN THE WAYSTATIONS DESERVE QUESTIONING and pardon as he tries to shorthand a lot of this, he doesn't like long texting.]

[It's okay, with the context, Allen can figure out what most of the shorthand means. At least enough to give a decent reply back]

Huh. That's a good point, I hadn't really thought about that.

I don't think Atroma made them though. There's been some systems where they use the waystations for their own purposes- like there was one where they had ostrich farms on the stations! And most planets don't seem even the least bit familiar with Atroma or the Drift Fleet...

ostrich farms srsly?? [HE IS SO WRITING THAT DOWN LATER.]

so yeah if atroma didn't make them then who did? the layout's basically the same and so r the shops, but there's different things happening on them and they dont seem new so they had to 've been around for a while.

maybe its a loose end im chasing but that's waht science is all about!!

[Make a hypothesis, even if it'll end up going nowhere, and pursue and test it out.]

Seriously. They called them tall birds, but they were definitely ostriches. My crew ate all the meat awhile ago, but I'm sure I still have something made out of ostrich leather somewhere.

Then I hope you find something. Even if it just gives us a clue where we are in the universe, it would be nice.

man. i wouldve liked to see that, it sounds awesome! [guess who likes birds, even non-flying ones]

thats the goal here, or at leats figuring out if some things in this universe r connected in some way. i'll give u an update if i find a good theory!

Please do! I'd like to know.

[ And not just because you're kinda hot when you go into science lecture mode either! It'd be useful to know where they could be, especially in relation to earth ]

But oh, I forgot to mention it during our last date, but Ino's birthday is coming up on the 23rd. Hiro's been working on a party for her.

really? sweet, i didn't know! what kind of stuff does she like, i'll try to get her something!

Anything fashionable or girly that's in purple, really. Or flowers, her family ran a flower shop so she really likes those. [Or weapons...but somehow he doubts Clay would know much about that stuff]

huh

how tall is she

Uh-

Short?

i had some clothes that'd look nice on her but they might be too big for her

[and realizing how that might sound:]

they were gonna be sheenas an they're clean and stuff, good for a ninja and purple/black, but yeah, might be big [Sheena was only a little bit shorter than him, after all. She just never got the chance to wear them, and now they're kind of collecting space dust.]

[ GOOD SAVE CLAY. GOOD SAVE. ]

Ah, yeah- I never met Sheena in person so I don't know how close they are in size.

But you could still give them, I think! If they're too big, we could find someone with tailoring skills to fix that. I don't think you're really expected to know Ino's exact measurements.

[...Honestly that'd be a little creepy if you did dude]

[Yeah, it probably would be, huh]

ok! then theyre hers now (ﾟヮﾟ) i'll see what i can do about the flowers thing too, thanks for telling me about all this!

also allen?

You're one of her friends, of course I'd tell you. I'm sure she'll love the clothes. [And flowers too, apparently! Wow]

Yeah?

date #3 sometime soon y/n?

[He did say "definitely", after all.]

[And that, brings a smile to his face]

Ah-

just checking- y/n means yes/no, right?
