If it was even talking to her--it wasn't like he was making eye contact, so she had no real way of knowing. If she was able to get in contact with what was under its shell, she was certain she could learn its language, but there didn't seem to be any openings. His entire body seemed to have been made of that strange metal--if it even was metal, it could be some sort of material natural to this habitat. Or this was its skin and was simply how beings of this planet were? As it closed its eyes and looked like it was struggling, she let out a gasp as it...shed its skin? Is that what was happening? She could only assume so, and it did it rather quickly! Her jaw dropped as she circled him once more. It was like he was a completely different being! How very strange! Perhaps it was akin to a defensive armor that appeared for threats? The Glorgnots of her planet had been the same, though they were much squishier under their shells. He must have deduced that she was not a threat and chose to shed the metallic skin. Fascinating, she had no idea there were creatures like this in the galaxy. In a way, they looked more alike now, albeit his eyes were much different than hers. Her fingertips brushed up against his forehead, and she couldn't help but note how soft it was compared to before. It--[i]He[/i], he looked much more like the males of her planet--shivered, adding credence to her theory. Looking him up and down, Koriand'r hovered in front of his face, getting much closer than before. She had to admit she liked this form much better than the other one. In all her staring, she realized that his skin was organic! This was exactly what she needed! Koriand'r's eyes lit up at the realization, letting out a small squee of delight. Landing on the ground, she took a hold of his shirt, pulling him towards her as she kissed him. To her surprise, it took a little longer than expected to assimilate the language. When she finally parted, it took her a moment to realize what had happened. [color=lightsalmon]"[abbr=Wait...two languages?]Espera...¿dos idiomas?[/abbr]"[/color] Koriander spoke slowly as the realization dawned on her. [color=lightsalmon]"What a talented tongue to have more than one language. [abbr=I wasn't expecting this, but...]No me esperaba esto, pero...[/abbr]thank you, Blue One."[/color] She paused as she realized she was mixing the two up. Interesting, she wondered what sort of planet had two languages. Maybe there were different tribes? Remembering her manners, Starfire put on a smile. [color=lightsalmon]"Forgive the damage to your home, you see, I was trying to get out of these,"[/color] She lifted her hands, dropping them shortly after. [color=lightsalmon]"If there is something sturdier that I may have better luck destroying them on, do tell. I am eager for complete freedom."[/color] [/indent][/indent][hr][right][sub][@Asura][/sub][/right]
