โ โญ ห . โ INTERSTELLAR PROMPTS. HEAVILY ACCEPTING.
"you should come take a look, it's kinda weird." โ @sunwalks (daisy).
โ weird . . . ? โ
what an ambiguous word. weird good or weird bad ? sheโs piqued my interest, thatโs for sure : any reputable scientistโs curiosity should be leaping at the word weird. i drop everything and nudge her out of the way โ as politely as i can given the excitement of it all.
ryland peeks into the eyepiece of the microscope with deeply growing fascination, turns the focus knobs appropriately to get a real good look at . . . whatever it is daisy has deemed worth a second opinion on. he mumbles to himself, ever the ruminating theorist. โ some kind of . . . abstract lifeform. shape not unlike an algae or parasite organism, though no obvious flagellum or nucleus . . . appears to have two further conjoined cells at one end that are circular . . . ? โ
the intonation is one of utmost perplexity, brow furrowing as he shifts to try and get a better look. itโs almost . . . phallic.
hang on a minute.
in his peripheral vision he sees daisy trying not to laugh, and the jig is up. his excitement deflates like a balloon, transforms quickly into sarcastic annoyance.
โ oh, ha - ha ! letโs put tiny microscopic genitalia on graceโs slides and not tell him. really, what are we, five ? โ
