"Aww."

[pandion]

"I dunno, should I want my very own equivalent of Ethan?"

[hold_infinity]

"...I'm really not sure," says Robin. "Hopefully yours would be nicer."

[pandion]

"Did I ever tell you - or I dunno, did anybody else tell you - that like months ago I had this itty bitty crush on him? It was the accent. I stopped, though."

[hold_infinity]

"Sounds familiar. Yeah - I like my Ethan fine, but I wouldn't be keen to meet anyone else's."

[pandion]

"Well," says Andi thoughtfully, "I don't think I could be soulmates with anybody who couldn't get along nicely with Bella."

[hold_infinity]

"There is that. I don't come with a twin."

[pandion]

"So my soulmate possibilities are conveniently, like - cinched up into a small space of agreeable soulmates."

[hold_infinity]

Robin giggles. "Or at least more agreeable than Ethan. I don't know, he gets along with Trouble all right. But Trouble is pretty agreeable himself once he takes a liking to somebody,"

[pandion]

"Agreeable. Eenh... I dunno, the word fits basically, but I wouldn't have picked it out of the dictionary. He's friendly I think I'd say."

[hold_infinity]

"Yeah, friendly's better."

[pandion]

"Trouble has too much going on to be agreeable," elaborates Andi, "agreeable people are nice but they aren't too complicated."

[hold_infinity]

"Yeah. Trouble's plenty complicated," she agrees.

[pandion]

"I used to not be complicated. I might be getting more complicated. I mean, I can turn into animals, that's big right there."

[hold_infinity]

Robin laughs. "Does that mean we're all complicated?"

[pandion]

"I guess? Aren't we?"

[hold_infinity]

"I don't know. When the point of comparison is Trouble, no, I don't think so. When the point of comparison is some person who doesn't believe in aliens, then maybe."

[pandion]

"Yeah, one of those. Man, remember not believing in aliens?"

[hold_infinity]

"Yeah," she sighs.

[pandion]

"It feels like it was longer ago than it was."

[hold_infinity]

"I know what you mean."

[pandion]

"Oh well."

[hold_infinity]

"I'm gonna find some more people to brag to," Robin decides, and she goes looking for Ethan.

Ethan is with Trouble.

After telling Ethan and Trouble, Bella is the logical next person to find.

Bella is upstairs. Charlie's in the room too, but they don't appear to be interacting.

"Hi!" says Robin. "I figured out how to make a lion/tiger/jaguar/leopard hybrid morph!"
