Y-yeah! We're the ones who discovered it, so we get to name it! That's how everything works in the scientific community!

[Gohan is absolutely excited about the prospect of getting to name a constellation. What an achievement! Not even a teenager yet and already naming celestial bodies!]

We need to pick a name that really suits its appearance...

[But what does this constellation look like... Gohan's studying it from different angles, turning his head this way and that and even looking at it upside-down to try and determine what shape it could be.]

I just used a random animal generator lol

[callmekacchan]

Kinda looks like a jellyfish to me. See the curve at the top and the couple trails of stars under? Could be legs?

[Time to spitball names.]

[latentpower]

[Gohan stares at the constellation for a moment, now that it's been pointed out. Huh... It does look like a jellyfish, doesn't it? Gohan's nodding in agreement.]

I think you're right! O-or at least we can go with that, constellations are all just commonly agreed upon interpretations of the stars, anyway.

[A name for a jellyfish constellation, huh... In that case...]

Well, constellations back on Earth are named using Latin words, so... How about Medusozoa? It's the group of sea creatures that jellyfish all belong to!

[Sorry Katsuki, he's a nerd...]

[callmekacchan]

What? Just that? Lame.

[Sorry, Gohan. He's a rude punk. He's also a fucking nerd, though. Don't ever let him lie and say he isn't.]

We can keep the Medusozoa part, but it should have something cool to add to it. Like Great Hunting Jelly: Medusozoa.

[latentpower]

[There's a brief pause from Gohan. Rude. Don't call his suggestion lame, it's following science!

But then Katsuki takes the name and improves on it. That's true science right there. And honestly, Gohan loves the name.]

That's... an amazing name! Yeah, we can go with that!

[callmekacchan]

[He is a rude person! Welcome to learning that, Gohan!]

Of course it's amazing. I came up with it.

[And humble, too...]

[latentpower]

Well, I mean... I helped too...

[Geez, Katsuki, don't take all the credit.]

[callmekacchan]

Fine. We came up with it. But you came up with the nerdy part.

[Don't give him kicked puppy look!]

[latentpower]

[There is a pause from Gohan's end. A blink. And then:]

...Yeah? What's wrong with being nerdy?

[He knows he's a nerd. He embraces being a nerd. He owns it.]

[callmekacchan]

[.....]

Don't talk back to your elders, damn you!

[The answer is 'nothing'. But now he's all discombobulated.]

[latentpower]

[Gohan just cocks his head to the side in confusion at Katsuki's attitude. He's seen true anger before. Felt it before.

He didn't feel the slightest bit scared or bothered by Katsuki's anger. Just confused. It seemed so... unwarranted.]

Why are you getting mad now?

[callmekacchan]

[Katsuki is typically all bark and no bite. At least these days and when he isn't fighting villains.]

Who's getting mad? I'm not mad! Shuddup and mark your map. I'm gonna keep looking at the damn sky.

[He is, in fact, mad. Or annoyed anyway. What do with nerd who accepts he's a nerd? Especially as someone who is also a fucking nerd and refuses to acknowledge it?]

[latentpower]

O-Okay!

[What in the world, why is he angry about this? Gohan will never understand. It's like dealing with Vegeta except he's not hung up on his pride. But he'll do as instructed, marking down their new discovery and even making some detailed notes about it in the margins next to it, such as the explanation of the name, the approximate latitude and longitude, and the brightest star of the constellation.]

And... there!
