It was strange to explain something that was so self-evident... this must be how his human felt when he explained human things to him in return. An interesting experience... while ZEX was fascinated by all forms of different life, in general he did not expect that interest to be returned... VUX were normal, after all, and how interesting could a normal thing be, compared to the extraordinary?

"Of course! I wouldn't change you for all the world. You're wonderful as you are." ZEX smiled, hoping he hadn't offended him somehow. "So delightfully different... it's fascinating to me. I just wish... I had my own body to better appreciate yours... it's so uncomfortable inhabiting something so... borrowed and unfamiliar." And inhabiting something he could barely use, and much less understand, but that didn't need to be said, he thought.

Another rush of water over sensitive skin, and he shivered a bit in response. Was he getting used to it? He wasn't sure he could say this felt nice just yet... but it didn't feel quite as strange as it did at first.
