"I wouldn't have, either, but an astronomy major explained it to me, once. You don't really notice, otherwise." She smiles, enchanted by his description. "That doesn't sound much like the view from my ship, but that's okay. Dreams are supposed to be more like a fantasy, right? Those were always my favorite ones."
Adia never had a pet cat, but she's well-versed in doling out affection to one. She keeps up with the petting, even as she tries to think of something to say in response to her friend's concerns. An arranged marriage is strange, to her, but to say so wouldn't be comforting at all (and culturally insensitive to boot). "It's, um... it's rarely done where I'm from." She looks away again, sheepish. "When I first met you, I thought that you were maybe from an earlier time period. But... anyway. That's good that she gets along with your friends. What do they think of her?"
