*Julian's eyes widened in excitement and fascination.*
"Please. If I might see such a thing...I would be grateful."

"You want to see? Very well, but don't say I didn't warn you. Also, it's a bit painful for me, so don't expect me to do it again." *Oriane stated, before she untied her bonnet and placed it on the ground along with her dainty little gloves. She smiled sweetly at Julian as she dug her fingers in her skin, pulling off the pinkish flesh to reveal a green scaled skin underneath it. She pulled off half of her face.* "And?" ((Think this, but on a sweet little girl.))

*Julian's eyes widened further, unblinking. A smile wormed its way into his lips.*
"That's...stunning."
*He took a step closer without thinking and lifted a hand as if to touch the newly exposed flesh. He quickly realized how rude it was and lowered it again.*
"I am sorry. It's just...I have not the words..."

*Oriane giggled. Sure this man did not run away screaming, but she did manage to astonish him.*
"You can touch it, if you like. It's just my real skin."

*Julian didn't have to be told twice. His hand lifted once more, cradling her face gently, almost tenderly.*
"And how is it that you came by your second skin, the one that you wear here?"

"The technology of my people is so advanced that they were able to create an machine so that I grow an extra skin and is able to replace it when I am hurt or when I go through a chrysalis phase."
*Oriane replied.*
"It is in my room along with other useful machines."

*Julian glanced up. Who would have thought that something so small could be so intriguing? Pina was not this interesting, even with Erik's blood in her. He returned his gaze to the child.*
"Will you show me?"

*Oriane thought it over, it wouldn't be wise to show her machines and instruments on which she depended to survive to anyone, but this man seemed ... well not harmless. More like he didn't care that she was an alien.*
"Very well. But if you are thinking of stealing any of them I will kill you"
*She picked up her bonnet and gloves and smiled.*
"I might even eat you after you're dead."

*Julian smiled eerily.*
"I would expect nothing less."
*There was no sarcasm or doubt in his voice. He believed it was very likely she might do it anyways.*
"My mother is very strict. I have learned not to touch other people's things."

"Your mother sounds very wise to me."
*Oriane remarked before she started to walk to a pair of stairs that lay ahead.*
''Normal humans are so curious and unable to control themselves. They have a saying that goes: 'Curiosity killed the cat'. I think that's rather true."
*She started to climb the stairs.*
"I'd kill the cat too, though I would not really care if it was curious or not."

*Julian pursed his lips. He wasn't sure what to make of this small things fascination with killing animals. He followed silently.*
"It is true, he is the wisest human I have ever known."

"Your mother is an he?"
*Oriane stopped at the top of the stairs and looked up at Julian, her one reptilian eye filled with more emotion then her fake human one.*
"Strange. I wonder how that happened."

*Julian laughed softly.*
"What? You didn't believe me? I told you they did not have a name for what I am."

*Oriane made a couple of strange hissing sounds which could only presented in written form by bashing the keyboard a couple of times.*
"That's how we would call you. I don't know how to translate it though. The closest human words can come is, 'he who is not natural yet crawls from the eggs like us'."
*She shrugged and opened the door which lead to an hallway.*
((Should I make a new thread.))

((Win.))
*Julian's smile widened.*
"I like that. Thank you."
*He moved to follow.*
((Yes please.))
