[what.

. . .

Oh. Hank makes a noise that sounds suspiciously like a laugh] No, genes as in - genetics, not clothes. Cells. That sort of thing.

[pneumo]

[ genetics hasn't really been a Thing where he comes from, and even less so for Sascha. He's never had a formal education, and prior to arriving he couldn't even read. ]

Selling....???

[beathach]

[hmm. How can he explain this in a way that's - simpler than this. He's at least familiar with that sort of thing not being well-known]

. . . let me - try it again.

I did science to myself.

[nailed it]

[pneumo]

[ oh my god i laughed so hard ]

.....Ohhhhhhh. [ AS IF THAT MAKES PERFECT SENSE. ]

That's a lot of science.

[beathach]

[IT TOTALLY MAKES PERFECT SENSE. Hank huffs another laugh]

Yes, it's a lot of science.

[pneumo]

That's really neat! [ such science so power many wow ]

Can you turn anyone blue??

[beathach]

Er - no, I can't. That was sort of a one time thing.

[pneumo]

Oh...oh well. [ Seeing more people become blue would have been cool. ]

Did it give you the beard too?

[beathach]

[he automatically reaches up to touch it - oh yes, that. He tends to forget what he looks like past the big and blue]

It's - fur, but yeah, it did. [a little wryly] I can't grow a beard otherwise.

[pneumo]

Fur--! [ OH MAN. Colour him excited (get it), Sascha's going to perk up right away and...sniff. Because that's normal, yup. ]

What kind?? You don't smell like any animal I know!

[beathach]

[p l e a s e. For something he normally has issues with, though, he's . . . tickled by Sascha's innocent questions. Which is weird in and of itself because these are not usually the questions he gets]

Well, that's because I'm not an animal, I'm a mutant. [and because he knows that's the next question:] A human with - uh, something different than an average human. Science stuff.

[pneumo]

Like Kitty--! [ She is the first mutant he ever met and she will always be his default when they come up. Hot!mom♥ ] I know those!

[ And he actually happens to very much like the ones he does know, because they are generally rather nice to him. Even if sometimes Kurt teases him.

Sascha files them under "human" if that helps any. ]

[beathach]

Ah - right, like Kitty. And Kurt. [that's a relief, he doesn't know if he can explain it any other way] You're friends with Kitty?

[pneumo]

Yeah! She was my first friend here~ I met Kurt at the dance. [ But they did not dance there. he just got a lecture about worrying people by breathing toxic air. ]

[beathach]

[Sascha no don't breathe the toxic air]

That's good - Kitty's a great person.

Er - what's your name? I'm Hank.

[pneumo]

Oh right--sorry, hehe~ I'm Sascha. Nice to meet you♥

[ alright, MOMENT OF TRUTH: if he holds out a hand...will Hank take it for the ultimate of ultimates. The introductory handshakes. ]

[beathach]

[Hank will absolutely take it. His grip is firm but careful]

It's nice to meet you as well, Sascha.

[pneumo]

[ Yessssssssss. Sascha fairly well beams, overjoyed at his luck because he certainly didn't have this with Kitty or Ciri the first time. ]

Hehe~~ How long have you been here??

[beathach]

[Sascha please stop being adorable]

I'm still pretty new - a month? Give or take a couple of days.

[pneumo]

[ Neverrrrrr this is how he rolls. ]

Whoa...! No wonder I haven't seen you yet--oh hey! When you were on the big ship, did you see the gorgeous women?? [ Atroma... ]

[beathach]

I've also been keeping something of a low profile, but - wait. What gorgeous women?

[he didn't see anyone aside from Apollo and Charles that he remembers]

[pneumo]

The ones that kidnapped us! I heard they were suuuper gorgeous, but I've only got a picture of one of them. I thought maybe you'd see them on the ship.

[beathach]

You met them?

I - no, I only saw the people who arrived the same time I did.

[pneumo]

I didn't meet them, but someone gave me a picture~ Wanna see?

[beathach]

I - yes, please, I would like to see it.
