Not if 'e'd rather we didn't, no. I'm just curious, is all.

I am not embarrassed. I do not wish to be treated like an animal.

[It's also a strategy for conquering the native people by lulling them into a false sense of security but he's less aware of that than his mother was.]

[He raises an eyebrow triumphantly.]

And I know neither of them.

If you only show people what they expect to see 'ow will they ever learn?

But I s'pose it's 'ardly your job to teach 'em. Just makes me sad to see anyone not liking what they are, is all.

[He folds his human arms, which take to the motion much better, and stares at her with a vaguely nasty defiance.]

No.

[He's prepared for her to turn on him for this admission.]

You have seen what I am. And I would never say I did not like it.

[The issue is other people.]

My perception filter simply allows you to experience me in a way you can accept.

[He rolls his eyes.]

In a way you can recognize. I am to you now as others of my species see me.

[A young man, fair, tall, and still slightly gangly. Prone to moodiness, and with a face that is neither plain, nor ugly, but which has just a bit too much character to be classically handsome. A deep, smooth voice. Thick and glossy in the places where he should be. Good teeth.]

[He eyes her suspiciously, unsure how to take such a declaration. On the one hand: of course she should accept him. Nothing about him is unacceptable. On the other: it is not something he has previously experienced. He sounds vaguely annoyed as he explains:]

Yes, that is the point of the perception filter. You can claim to do so because we can speak; because you know me. You would not have otherwise. Things would be quite different had I come upon you as I truly am, while you sat alone in the dark and leaked.

That is not the same.

[Not hurting a creature, is not the same as befriending it.]

It is not enough to be the dog you do not kick. I am more than that.

[He does not know how to deal with being told this either, beyond clenching his fists impotently and looking visibly uncomfortable, and then pretending she has not said it because it's too much.]

I don't understand why she has not come for me. She should have come for me by now.
