Trunks had, in theory, been two a different 'planet'--even if it was also the very same planet just in a different timeline. Certainly it had seemed strange enough, considering the differences in timeline. Like Morag, he tried not to gape, but wouldn't hide the wonder in his own eyes. Some of the skeletons were huge, and he was enough his mother's son to actually enjoy reading about how the giant creature's bones and habitats.

A soft laugh came in response to her words, and Trunks let himself be tugged easily with a grin to the display. It was fascinating--and reminded Trunks as if an spilled-oil had somehow become alive, from how easily they moved. Like liquid pools. "We don't have anything like this on my planet. How about you?"

Curiosity and wonder in his eyes, as he knelt down to watch the creatures more on their level through the tank.

"Not in the least. And it's nice to see wildlife that doesn't want me for a snack, I might add." She smiled down at the weird creature, her arms folded on the thick edge of the tank. "Just open to the air, yet it has no idea we're here."

[light_of_willpower]

Her comment brought a low chuckle. "Sadly, most of the critters that might want me for a snack don't exist. At least the above-ground ones. I haven't encountered any in the waters yet, but I also haven't spent as much time in the water as others."

Coming out of his crouch and leaning with her as they watched. "Are we heading up to the Rain Forest area, or down to where they have more live critters?"

[specialinquisitor]

"Let's go down." She rose as well, and seemingly without conscious thought, her hand found his as she turned to the winding ramp.

His was right there to meet it, curling around her own with a soft squeeze as they headed to the ramp. Going down, the ramp wound around and through the exhibits. Closest to the top were mid-size and smaller creatures, a blend of shelled and soft-bodied creatures. Some resembled Earth animals mixed together, while others seemed completely alien to the pair. The low lighting helped highlight the bio-luminescence of various creatures and water-plant life.

As they went deeper, the exhibits grew larger and more dangerous. Beings in their mating cycles, where the males were separated because of their heightened aggression from the females. They were also kept an eye on, as their were fights between the males, with displays of teeth and fins and antennae. Deeper still, on the bottom level were exhibits about the native life of the planet.

"Some of these look a little familiar. Others..." She stopped at one particular glass pane, window into a deep and dark tank where long, sleek creatures rotated through the water with apparent but inscrutable purpose. To simply watch such creatures without worry for what harm they might cause or whether or not they would attack her was a rare treat indeed.

"I know. Kind of makes you wonder how they'd capture creatures." Wide-eyes with curiosity and wonder, voice soft. "Maybe the raise them from when they're young?" Moving to join her at the same tank, watching the long sleek creatures. As they watched, occasionally, there was a pulse of light, moving from one creature to another in a wave across the school. Sparking slightly in the water.

"Kind of glad we don't have to worry about them zapping us too."

[specialinquisitor]

"That would be safest." Which didn't mean that it was the way they used, of course. "I have told you something about Titans, and how we modify them for our use, have I not?"
