 Pet Space Rock Extra Credit : Post 1 YesJess! | Captain Goggles | Mama Badger | Eva's Soul Sister | An OG™ | It's all in the Numbers
This was a bit strange - caring for a meteorite - because as far as Sky could tell it wasn't breathing. Least not the way mammals did. Did it even eat food? And she'd have to carry it everywhere, which was also strange. Perhaps, what she needed to do was make a little cradle for it, with a handle to make it easier for her to carry it. It would be like her little pet rock's home.
Picking it up, the first year turned it over and over in her hands as she inspected it, trying to determine the perfect name for it. She wanted to be unique; not call it something like "Rock" or "Meteor" because those names just seemed so boring and plain. And even though she hadn't given her pet a face yet, she knew he wasn't plain. Yes, she decided her rock was a male. Contemplating the name, Sky flipped through her astronomy textbook for something unique sounding. Xenolith. Yes, that would work. She could call it "Xeno" for short.
Now that she had the name, she attached two googly eyes to Xeno and a red pipecleaner for his mouth. "Perfect" she said aloud. Now just to create a carrier for him. Selecting a small cardboard box, Sky carefully cut some holes in the top and then attached two pipecleaners in a semicircle to make a handle... she added some faux grass and then placed Xeno inside. "There you are. Just get comfy now, Xeno, as I tour you around my school."
