Ah, alright, that's good enough. Thank goodness I brought a rucksack...

-Sam, you can hear the alien's voice as he steps outside-

-A young, nondescript man... with a deer's face-

It worked! I knew stealing some of that person's hair would be enough...

-He's... examining himself-

Eires turned wordlessly and practically wrapped themself around her with a grip that suggested they were holding on for dear life.

"Where were you? I was so worried!"

"Are you one of those deer people who wander around these parts? Is that blue alien thing what you actual form is?" Sam asked, her body relaxing with him now in plain sight, "'cause I've never heard of those things trying to use telepathy before."

Oh no, I'm not one of those deer people. I'm an Andalite. I just stole some DNA from a deer person I met.

I was right to think this would be an easy morph. Not too far off from my actual body, though I can't get used to only having one heart.

I am called Jovek back home. I'm sorry if my real form frightened you. Though, I can only stay like this for two of your Earth hours.

I wasn't scared, I've dealt with worse in my time.

I'm a surgeon, after all.

Ah, yes... I just assume that most humans become hysterical when they see an Andalite for the first time...

An Anda... Annnnnduuuuh...

-Is... is he playing around with his mouth?-

...! My teeth feel so... solid...

Teeth tend to be pretty solid, yes.

Sometimes it's the only way your body can be identified.

Those dental records.

Wonderful invention, I have to say.

As is all of forensics...

"Yes, that's kinda how teeth work," Sam said, her voice flat, "have you never shapechanged into something with teeth before?"

I'm sorry. I'm sorry, I got wrapped up in things. It won't happen again. I love you.

Humans can tell humans apart simply from looking at eachother's teeth? Fascinating!

-He reaches up to touch his antlers-

I have stalks, but my eyes are missing... what a curious design choice...

When I lived on Earth, I did have a human form, yes. Also a raccoon, a hawk, and many other creatures. The raccoon was my favorite! .... Favooour.... oooor...

Well...

Humans with very specific skills and tools can tell humans apart from their teeth, yes.

But it's usually dead humans.

Eires didn't respond, instead just squeezing Sandra tighter.

"Which none of us here are, and hopefully none of us here will be. Must have been a long time since you've taken on a talking form given your... enjoyment... of words?"

Also can I just say that I freaking love the series andalites are from, as much as I'm being a snark bitch to yours? Those books are still some of my favorite to remember, although given they're written for kids I'm not sure they'd hold up as well if I tried to read them today.

If that's true, then I have much more to learn about Earth and their customs. Finding the names of the dead...

... In human time, I've left Earth about five months ago. Some human higher ups began to notice me, so I decided to leave until it's safe to go back.

I'm in a kind of similar situation, funnily enough.

Staying here until it's safe to go back.

... Though admittedly, I have no idea how long it'll take for someone like me.

...? But that doesn't make any sense. You are a human. Humans are okay with other humans...

Are you another alien morph?

... Oh... you're a warrior?

... -To say Jovek looks uncomfortable is an understatement-

"I-" Eires started, stammering and struggling to get a concrete sentence out.

For someone used to it, their tone sounded like someone on the verge of breaking down, even crying in relief...if they could, anymore.

"If humans were all okay with other humans, I'd be out of a job. Happy, but out of a job. Humans have fought each other since before recorded history and there's no sign we're going to stop soon."

If you're uncomfortable with warriors, then you'll probably be very uncomfortable with me.

Lets just say that the humans after me, want to either capture or kill me.

And are responsible for breaking me out of a prison... but at the same time, it's because they were trying to kill me and failed.

... It's a long story.

No... I'm not scared of warriors... I just don't want to be one.

I was to be raised to join the Andalite army... but I know I'm weak. I'd... A taxxon would surely rip me apart if I was thrown on a battlefield. So I ran.

Though... your situations seem much worse than mine...
