[0535] Pollux And Castor
└ posted on Monday, 9 December 2013, by Novil
Pollux and Castor are named after the stars in the constellation of Gemini, the Twins. This seems to be very fitting since Pollux and Castor are identical twins themselves. Moreover, these two stars are close neighbors of the star Procyon, the alleged namesake of the raccoon’s scientific name Procyon lotor.
- Pollux: Hey, ain’t that Woo and his mate Lily?!
- Castor: Dammit, you’re right!
- Pollux: Lily, Woo, this is Castor, and I’m Pollux. It’s an honor to meet you.
- Lily: Well, uhh… thank you?
- Woo: You know who we are?
- Pollux: Sure! Who doesn’t? Word spreads fast whenever Seeoahtlahmakaskay pays a visit to somecoon down here.
- Castor: Rumor has it that she was rather disappointed by your cake-stealing skills, though.
I’m guessing that whenever you see Castor and Pollux in a story they will be twins.
I’ve made this assumption since i’ve seen those names in a book series i’m reading and they’re conjoined twins
