Earth: Yeah, my earthlings have been through a lot lately, so I want to avoid causing any apocalypses for at least a month or two and just chill in my orbit.
Venus: Right, honestly, I feel like your earthlings already hate you for all that...
Mars: I think they’ll react way worse when they find out you're a sentient planet lol.
Mercury: You say that like earthlings don't already know planets are alive.
Moon: But... they don't know. Well, except for Astrodude, of course.
Venus and Mercury: Wait, WHAT?!?
Earth: Wait, you guys didn't know that my earthlings didn't know?
Sun: We always thought they knew everything.
Mars: How did you guys not notice? Why else do you think Astrodude was so scared of us and kept avoiding us?
Jupiter: I just thought Astrodude was scared of us because we're so huge... This explains a lot, you know.
Venus: When are you even planning to tell them?
Earth: Weeeell, I wanted to pick the perfect moment... I just haven't figured out what to say yet... And, you know, those millions of years just kinda flew by. But hey, Astrodude can tell them for me, right? Heh.
Moon: Terrible plan. Astrodude already tried, and nobody believed him. They probably can't see that we're alive because of your atmosphere. If we just tell them straight out, it'll definitely cause a panic.
Earth: Oh... well, then I'll just wait a bit longer. Maybe the right moment will show up after all : )
Moon: Earth, you're an idiot.
