(As mysterious as we can manage, at least. You did the right thing, anyway. Saves me the trouble of having to memorize some story about it.)
[That much is at least true.]
(At this rate, it feels like we just won't ever know. Unless we come across a bestiary that lists all the weird lizard creatures that hatch from eggs in the universe, we might just be out of luck. What are the chances that our next mission might be on its homeworld?)
[He hadn't even considered that; based on his own experiences, things that hatched from eggs were definitely natural creatures, something stole from the environment that it came from -- not made.
It makes him frown.]
(If it was created... or was some kind of, what, experiment? Then that means it had a specific purpose. No clue what it might be, though, but I suppose if it's something dangerous then we'll find out when it gets bigger.
[There is a a gentle agreement about keeping the idea to themselves. Their connection to the ooze baby is already a fond one, and he really doesn't want Cathaway to put it down just because of what it might be capable of.]
(So if that makes it my child, does that make you the wife?)
[HE'S JOKING, don't read too much into that, Bellamy.]

( If it has a homeworld. ) [ What if someone made it? Unlikely, but so is just about everything they've come across. ] ( What do you think of it? )
[ Noctis's reassurance that caring about this ugly little thing won't lead to their downfall seems necessary. ]

Are we really giving it my last name, though?)

[ Though he doesn't see any need to volunteer that idea to Cathaway. It might only increase her desire to chop into it. ]
( And unless you object, I think so. )
