Stop worrying about Marco, Claudia - you need to be worrying about the Andalite demorphing under the table.

As for Marco? He was currently staring. At Claudia. With a completely dumbfounded expression on his face.

See, he knew there were "fictional" people on board. And they they weren't really fictional - it's just that their stories had ended up in other universes. And meeting people like Spider-man and Samus and Captain Kirk was awesome. But he'd never really considered that he could be one of them. But now that he did? He did not like the idea. He'd been so careful about what he revealed, and now possibly any number of random people could have just read about their entire lives?!

Marco's eyes flicked to the table - and since he wasn't in morph, he couldn't answer. But that was certainly a mark against Claudia's claim. Yeah, she was smart. Real smart. But come on, reading about them at twelve? That was insane!

He narrowed his eyes. Claudia could be telling the truth - but she could still be lying to try and cover up how she really got the information. Marco wasn't sure which he wanted it to be - if she was lying, yeah it'd turn out she was really a backstabbing bitch. But at least it wouldn't mean that anyone could know all their secrets.

Marco needed to find out.

"Alright then. Let's assume this is true. If it is, you'd know stuff about us that no one else could. So tell me - what happened to Cassie that time when she ended up in Australia?"

He'd have to watch carefully when she answered, for signs that she was lying. See, the thing is? Marco didn't really know the answer. Cassie had always been a bit vague on what happened. And he was confidant that Ax and Tobias didn't know either. Which meant that there was absolutely no way that anyone else on the ship could have gotten the information from them, either by psychically poking around in their heads or eavesdropping on their conversations. It was a question Claudia could only answer if she had in fact read about them in some books before she ever got onto Stacy.
