ORBITAL PATTERNS OF MERCURY
Mercy (yes, that's what we call him) has some seriously weird patterns. His orbit is all like, "Hey, I'll just chill here for a bit, then I'm off to the inner solar system for a snack." It's like he's trying to make us think he's all, 'I'm a cool cat, just hanging out, no big deal.'
But, no, he's actually just trying to avoid all the other planets. They're all, "Hey, Mercurio, come play with us!" And he's all, "Nah, I'm good, thanks."
