[At least she's not asking if the drapes match, as that would be utterly gross.

(And Veronica is the one who would think it's gross.)]

I assume your aunts and cousin don't share any genes with your parents? They're all maternal side?

[heritors]

No, they're my father's siblings. Why do you ask?

[ I can't believe my first thread in the second season of futurology is trying to explain anime hair to a character. ]

[refashioned]

Curiosity. Nothing more, nothing less.

[It's literally a pointless conversation.]

But that's ... fascinating. If I knew anything else about genetics, I'd probably theorize.

But. Well.

I don't.

[heritors]

I see.

[ ... ] If you don't mind me asking, what exactly are genetics?

[refashioned]

I now understand the sword.

More generally, genetics have to do with a field of science that studies genes, and genes are what inherit from one another.

I'm just a high school student, though, so anything beyond that is a little outside of my reach.

[ Wow Veronica what's that supposed to mean!!!

but she understood everything else in that sentence, this is good, this is progress. ]

I see. I appreciate you telling me about it nonetheless. I presume blue hair is ... unheard of in your world, as well. [ She's not the first. ]

[refashioned]

Not without a dye job and a very thorough dedication to touching up your roots.

It's also more likely with a certain type of person, of which you most certainly are not.

The dye job, that is. Not a natural blue hair color.

shit i thought i sent this

[heritors]

Who typically dyes their hair blue, then?

[refashioned]

I think it's safe to say that it's a whole subculture that you wouldn't understand.

[refashioned]

Oh, and aging mothers experiencing a mid-life crisis.

[heritors]

I see. [ Well with that said— ]

I assume this means you had the opportunity to observe me, then?

[refashioned]

Yes. Though admittedly, I did take care to ignore all the giant bugs after the rather annoying pirate attack. It seemed to me like they weren't willing to be reasoned with.

So. I believe we're due to meet. We can finally move past this secret admirer, pen pal from afar stage of our relationship.

[heritors]

I am available now, if you'd like.

What are your feelings on coffee?

[heritors]

[ Thank god she used to binge modern shoes on Tekflex, otherwise she'd embarrass herself further. ]

I prefer tea, myself. Was there somewhere you had in mind?

[refashioned]

As long as you don't want anything fancy, I'm sure the local coffee shop has something for both of us.

They usually don't call themselves tea shops if they also sell coffee, but you can argue for a change.

[heritors]

[ In that case — here's the name to some cafe in HQ, Veronica. ]

I will see you shortly.
