[He sighs heavily.]

So if you hate space so much, why did you come with me?

[Just ... out of curiosity.]

[kindawimpy]

Because you're cute and you asked me to. [ duh. ]

[supertardiness]

[His head ducks a bit at that, before he shifts to rub the back of his neck.]

You could have suggested something else. I just wanted to get out for a bit.

[kindawimpy]

Nah, you were all excited about space! The Final Frontier! Blah blah nerd stuff. [ she shrugs, unconcerned. ] I like stars and all, I'm a constellation savant, I just don't like space.

[supertardiness]

[He nods in agreement.]

Fair enough.

[And since there should be a compromise in here somewhere.]

You want to go and see one of the shows? There's one that's pretty much all constellations all the time.

[kindawimpy]

Sure. [ compromise is a beautiful thing. ] Do you know anything about the Incan constellations?

[supertardiness]

[He pauses before shaking his head.]

Nope. Educate me.

[kindawimpy]

Stars were really important to the Incans. A lot of them correspond with animals. Atoq is the fox, he's a tiny little constellation beneath the llama's feet. Andean foxes eat baby vicuñas, but if the parents catch them they'll try to trample them to death to save their babies. In December the sun passes through the constellation and baby foxes are born in winter, which is cool.

[supertardiness]

Oh, neat.

[He knows a lot of science stuff about stars, but mythology is a bit out of his wheel house.]

So it's kind of like the Greek and Roman constellations but more practical.

[kindawimpy]

And way less slutty. [ slut shames zeus always. ]

[supertardiness]

[He laughs.]

That is definitely true.

[kindawimpy]

I think anything would be considered less slutty than Zeus, though. It's not an incredibly low bar to skate under.

[supertardiness]

[He shakes his head.]

No it is not. He definitely was the kind of guy who got around.
