Oh no they're from Springfield!

Excuse me while I go feel stupid somewhere in a corner.
Ironically Odessa is just a little to the east and is associated with none of these things.
While this set up allows for us all to be new to each other if anybody wants to have a pre-existing relationship that's cool.
Fair enough. They took Calculus together. Connection established.
She has a thread with pics? I don't know why there isn't a link for fucks sake!
Heh, interrupted by real life. Took longer than I expected, but now I'm back in fantasy land where I belong.
I like alot of this. Rick didn't have a traditional curriculum. I could see him doing doctoral work in chem and physics while still finishing his core curriculum for his bachelor's. Bachelor programs tend to be sticklers about those core classes. If we do the class together, and it's a core curriculum class, why not leave my wheelhouse and enter yours? How about Philosophy 101: Antiquity? I know you mentioned something about platonic ideals...
As evidenced by his hobby of translating extraterrestrial tongues, Rick is a polyglot. Yiddish and Russian is fine, though I would expect Romanian too from Tiraspol.
I think they would have become friends. Good friends, but not necessarily romantic. Most of the girls in Rick's life at the time would be college co-eds he wouldn't stand a chance with, but lust is a driving factor in a teenage boys life. It takes serious discipline to get past the hormones and acknowledge that there is more to a relationship than boobs, boobs, boobs, and sex. And boobs. His time with NIkoleta would probably be a refuge from a world he can't control where he is always the youngest person in the room and everyone is talking about him not wasting his potential.
He would have likely meet Veronika, and the Grandaunt in her eccentric tea room. Rick likely would have accepted it without a second thought. He's a dirt poor kid from the bayou. As long as no one's throwing empty vodka bottles at him and cussing him out because life is rotten then Rick's going to be fairly content.
Let's save the in-costume meeting for the Justice League dinner. That way we can roleplay it out. Though I have a feeling it would be similar to what you've proposed.
How's that sound?
