The National Mall- Thursday

For the second week in a row, a Thursday with nothing to do had led Sabine and Lana out of town, though today they'd extended the invitation to a few other people.

You know. To go check out museums, like the nerds they were. And to hide in the air conditioning, because it was gross outside.

So it was off to DC for the day handwavily around class times, with shirts available to wear that read "FANDOM COSTUME SOCIETY" to help the non-humans blend in. Would it work? Who knows!


[NFB for distance, and for those who know who they are, though if you happen to be in DC, feel free to stop in!]

"Bio... I think I'm gonna have to look that up," Nell said. "But I do know my plants and how they work together."

Lana thought of how she could explain it simply. "Chemistry is a science of knowing how different substances react to each other. Biochemistry is the same thing, but with living organisms. In this case," she smiled, "making useful things from plants."

"Oh," Nell said. "Then yes, I do know quite a bit about it. At least for the plants I'm familiar with.

And she smiled at Lana.

Lana smiled back. "Whereas I know next to nothing about it, or about any of the local plants. I hope you don't mind if I have questions sometimes."

"Oh heavens, no, feel free to ask whatever you want," Nell said. Just tell me if I get to talking your ear off about it."

"Of course," Lana said, "though I doubt it'll come to that."

"You'un ain't seen how I can talk when I get going," Nell said cheerfully.

Lana laughed. "And you haven't seen how good I am at listening." Or faking it if she had to, but you never knew when something you learned might be useful.

"Then I guess we'uns are gonna have some fun," Nell said with a smile.

Lana grinned back. "I think we are."
