Pluto + Charon Forever

I've always thought there was something beautiful about Pluto and Charon's relationship. Two little icy things all off in the dark depths of the solar system, mutually orbiting each other, always facing each other, a sweet little binary system love story.

AND THEN THEY HAD BABIES. Little Nix and Hydra, discovered only in 2005, making a well-rounded family of four.

It's enough to make one want to name her daughter Charon, were it not for all that ferryman of the dead business.

package came for us. Probably from margot. Should we wait for you to return to open it?
