"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?"

[pandion]

"It'd be weird. Hey, what about me, what would mine be like?"

[hold_infinity]

"I dunno," says Robin. "You're not obsessed with saving the world and you don't generate infinite cake."

[pandion]

"I do not do either thing! Hmmmm."

[hold_infinity]

"Yeah, I dunno. I mean, if you'd asked me to predict my soulmate before I met Ethan, I definitely wouldn't have told you he'd be vaguely criminal and kind of a jerk."

[pandion]

Andi snorts. "Well, I mean, the lockpicking turned out to be useful?"

[hold_infinity]

"It did! Ethan's handy."

[pandion]

"Would you have guessed that your soulmate would be handy?"

[hold_infinity]

"I dunno. Probably not."

[pandion]

"You thought you would have one who was barely even convenient or something?"

[hold_infinity]

"I don't think I would've thought of how convenient they were going to be at all!"

[pandion]

"What would you have thought of then?"

[hold_infinity]

"...I don't know. If Ethan is what soulmates are like, I don't think I could've imagined it at all."

[pandion]

"Huh. Maybe we'll all get surprised."

[hold_infinity]

"Maybe," she agrees.
