"Not really," she snorts. "Well, not about our zoo-related skills, anyway."

[pandion]

"What instead of that? Why, I have no idea what I'd talk about if it weren't for those zoo-type topics."

Robin rolls her eyes.

[pandion]

Andi giggles a little.

[hold_infinity]

Robin grins.

[pandion]

"Seriously though what do you even have conversations with him about? It's never all that obvious when you're around me how it's happening so it has to be while I'm not but you're so -" She twists her index and middle fingers together.

[hold_infinity]

"I couldn't even begin to tell you," she admits. "I feel like I've known him forever. We just talk. About everything."

[pandion]

"You've known him like as long as you've known me. I mean, you've known Bella that long too, it's not like everybody clicks the same amount, but you're extra-double-chocolate clicky with Ethan."

[hold_infinity]

"Yeah," says Robin. "I have no idea why, but it's true."

[pandion]

"Huh. I bet Mom would say you were sooooulmates."

[hold_infinity]

"Maybe we are."

[pandion]

"Wouldn't that be weird if everybody actually had one of those? Oh my god what do you think Trouble's soulmate would be like?"

Robin opens her mouth.

Robin closes her mouth.



"Really, really cuddly," she decides.

[pandion]

[hold_infinity]

"And with a weird sense of humour. But the cuddly part's all I know for sure."

[pandion]

"And with, like, an infinite cake appetite."

[hold_infinity]

"Infinite cake," she agrees, giggling.

[pandion]

"What about Bella, what do you think?"

[hold_infinity]

"...I couldn't even imagine," she says.

[pandion]

"Yeah, I don't know either, and you'd think I would. Probably if she was presented with a soulmate right now she would be like 'how about you save the world and maybe then I will have time for you'."

[hold_infinity]

"Well, 'how about we save the world', maybe?" says Robin. "I mean, expecting them to save it all by themselves would be a little harsh."

[pandion]

"Okay, yeah, probably. They would have to be very cooperative with her saving the world."

[hold_infinity]

"Unless her soulmate just happened to come with an Andalite warship."

[pandion]

"Do you suppose somebody's soulmate could be an alien? Since there are aliens?"

[hold_infinity]

"Why not?"
