“Weapons
huh… you can always take a look at ours…… here…” Whistles and his arrow
flies around Carlos a bit then settles infront of him.

Carlos blinked at him, and then looked down at
the arrow, almost a little afraid. “I, uh… I don’t think here’s a good place.
We’re still eating, after all…”

He also probably shouldn’t be looking at alien
weapons of all things. If the government somehow figured out he was abducted
when he got home…

God, that was another thing. Aliens existed,
obviously. Were the MIB or somebody going to come after him?

“Hmmmm.” Whistles and the arrow returns to his holster. “You have any questions for me?”

Carlos thought about it. “Well… what about
you? What are your hobbies? I saw that you like little figures.” He offered
Yondu a smile at that.

“Ummm…
well….talking I guess…I’m not good at that.. but…. I’ll try….. not
really much to me besides what you see and what I am now..”

Carlos stuffed some beans into his mouth with
a nod. “Okay. Well… what do you want to know about me, then?”

“Umm well… what do you like? Hobbies? Interests?”

Carlos laughed softly. “Well, I’m a scientist
back on Earth. I like building things, figuring out how tech works and that
sort of stuff.” His eyes flicked up briefly to Yondu’s red implant, but he took
another bite of his beans so he didn’t linger too long.

Blinks noticing the glance. “If your careful… I’ll let you look. If you want….. “ smiles a bit.

Carlos looked at Yondu again, surprised. “Uh,
well… maybe another time.” He smiled, sheepishly. “I… Yeah, I’m curious. I
haven’t seen something like that before. Is it… is it Kree? Or… what?”

“It’s… based of kree… but more… my design….. made it myself based off some of there shoddy attempts…”

Carlos nodded listening. “Fascinating,” he
said softly. “I… I used to work with weapons back home, but obviously nothing
like that.”

“Breathing each other’s air?….. strange…..hmmmmm so … you haven’t answered….. completely…… am I… able to court you?”

Carlos got a little nervous again. He… wasn’t
supposed to spend his life in space. Dating hadn’t been a thing he’d thought
about.

“Well… we still have some time before reaching
Earth,” he said. “I… I guess I don’t really see a problem with giving it a
shot.” He smiled slightly at Yondu. God, this was weird… dating. In space!

“Really?” His ears wiggle a bit and can’t help the smile on his sharp crooked teeth.

Yondu’s was not a conventional smile… but it
was kind of warm.

Carlos nodded to him. “Yeah… why not? It… it
could be fun.”

Fun. He never dated for ‘fun’, so much. But eh…
who knows what’ll happen?

“I…. well…great yeah!” Grins all happy like and his ears wiggle.

Carlos smiled at him and started to eat again. “So, uh… how do you want to start?” he asked.

Yondu shrugs ears giving a little twitch wiggle. “I don’t much care about that to be honest.”

“No?” Carlos asked. “Well… nice to know that…
I mean… Um, that’s nice. Thank you.” He laughed slightly. God, he was probably
sounding terrible. He cleared his throat. “Um, so… I dunno. What’s first, then?”

Yondu blinks at him. “Ummm… well…” pulls out the holo pad on human mating rituals. “Let me Check here…. uhhhhh something about… confectionary… in a heart box… and roses…. uhh…”

Carlos chuckled. “That’s… well, that’s not
necessary. The important part is spending time to get to know each other, and
doing fun things together. The gifts… well, they’re optional. Mostly those are
just to show that you’re like… I mean, it’s just a way to say ‘I’ve been
thinking about you’ or something, you know?”

“Oh….. well ummm.”throws the holo pad to the side snacking a crew member in the head. “Well one thing I know from my Umm species…. is ummm… can I show you?”

Carlos lifted an eyebrow curiously, but then
nodded. “Um, sure,” he said. He glanced over at the crewmember who was hit,
wondering if he was okay.

Yondu looks at him then leans in and rubs there heads together and if they both had fins they too would connect.

Carlos was surprised at first, but he didn’t
move. He just closed his eyes and let Yondu rub their foreheads together. This
was… it felt strangely intimate. Very intimate,
actually. Carlos felt a little like he was made privy to something he wasn’t
supposed to be… even though he and Yondu were the two doing it. He was a little
nervous, but… he supposed he could see how this would be nice. Yeah, it’d take
some getting used to, but… he didn’t mind it too much.

Yondu then pulls back after a bit and smiles. “Last time I did that was…. when I was just a cub….”

Carlos opened his eyes and smiled shyly at
Yondu. “Um, what… what was that? Like… like a kiss or something?”

“A intimate affection greeting. To a person you like…… I’d get them from my parent all the time…. before….”

Carlos just nodded, knowing not to push. “Yeah?
That’s… that’s kind of nice. I think we have something like that on Earth. You –
well, I guess you don’t know. But there’s some tropical islands and they have
that. Sort of, like… breathing each other’s air, I think.”
