Third Lap

[Voice / Action]

Can anyone tell me what a "Komodo" is?

[This might seem random in context, and she's frustrated, okay. See, it all started with her going into the library just for something to do (maybe find a book on car construction to figure it out) and then she found some Zoobooks in a box. She started to flip through them and began to recognize... some of these are animals she's never heard of! Actually most of them are. But from an 'alligator' she can figure out what's the part of a catgator that's a 'gator' and not a 'cat' (though it helps she found another book on 'big cats') And she then got to work researching, spending most of her afternoon on it. You can walk in on her doing this.

She's gathered, by the time she breaks for an early dinner (now taking an animal encyclopedia into Seventh Heaven) she the animals she knows (normal ones) are actually split in half-ish on this world called Earth. Thing is, Earth also seems to have some combination animals too. Like tiger sharks. So she's in the process of trying to figure out how certain animals split apart.

The fact she can find "Rhino" (or well, "Rhinoceros" but it seems most people shorthand it to "Rhino" so she hopes that's not a combination animal because she's never haerd of a "ceros") but she can only find a "Komodo Dragon." There's also apparently an island of Komodo but (bah)!!

Run into her in the library, at dinner while flipping through this book, or answer her plea in voice. She might be baffled by some other animals too, the voice is just that one for simplicity.]

I think komodos aren't actually a thing. Well, the name by itself being an animal. I probably shouldn't say that, what with all these different worlds and your whole... uh, komodo rhino thing.

Oh! Yeah, hi, Asami.
wisecracking: ([P] Two and two equals...)

Is that... weird? [Probably is for Asami. Got to keep that in mind, Peter.] You guys have duck turtles? What does that even look like?

[Peter honestly can't help but laugh. Both at the image of a duck turtle -- turtle duck, whatever -- and Asami's struggle to explain it.]

Sorry, sorry. That sounds really weird to me, but probably right at home to you. I can't really picture it.
wisecracking: ([P] That's pretty nice.)

Turkey-ducks are a thing too? [All he wants to say is that she's got very weird animals back home, but he can't say that. It's rude.] That's kind of amazing. Do you ever cook them?
wisecracking: ([P] Still feeling myself!)

Roasted, right? [Just trying to find some similarities.]
