He thought before replying. He didn't mind a diamond but he was trying to see if they could form another shape. But the Puffer nodded again. "A diamond's fine.''
Alyssa looked at Jory. Was that hesitation in his voice? Had he wanted his star to be a cluster that formed another shape. "
Ooookkaaaayyy....if you're sure. " Alyssa nodded.
Oooookkaaayyy....
"
So what do you want to name our asterism?" she would give Jory first dibs at picking the name. She had some ideas of her own...and one of her first choices was Tiffany, like the Tiffany Diamonds that some of the other rich people back home wore. But she decided that she wouldn't even suggest that. Nope....that was DEFINITELY too girly a name and she didn't fancy telling the Professor that they had named their asterism after a girl.
She couldn't even imagine herself saying Hey look up there. It's Tiffany. Nope...that wouldn't work at all.
