Anonymous asked: They named the dolphins after Friends!

Not gonna lie, my exposure to these books VASTLY predated any exposure I had to…pop culture in general, so rereading them is always an adventure full of “oh wow that’s totally a reference that I Did Not Get” and let me tell you a thing, the Friends reference was…a latecomer even by those standards.  I think I was 18 by the time I realized that.

“I’m in,” Marco said instantly.A split second behind him, Rachel said her usual “I’m in."Everyone stared openmouthed at Marco."Just once I wanted to beat Rachel to it,” he explained. WOw. This is Iconic.

THIS LINE.  IN PARTICULAR.  IS MY JAM.

*inhales deeply* Oh god, I’ve adopted the alien boy. I will love him. I will protect him. I will care for him

You have good taste, my dude.
