During his studies of human interaction, Andy decided to take part in a simple, elementary-level "College Calculus Course" offered at the University of Houston. If not for educational purposes, it would bring him much amusement to see how simpletons learn.
By the second week of class, Andy was taken off guard when he encountered a creature unlike any Earth had to offer. Her bio-chemistry readings reflected that of a human, but what he found within was something extraordinary. Andy would interact with Thanh-Be in order to satisfy his curiosity. Over time, Andy learned that he was more human than originally expected.
From that point on, Andy slowly cut contact with his home-world and began to sacrifice his immortality, sanity, and sanctuary to embark on a personal journey of love with Thanh-Be.
