Bird and the Worm [Vince/Shen]

<< < (2/2)

Cheesigator:
After a few moments of intense waiting and silence interrupted only by the hissing of the escape pod's inner workings trying to cool down the engine, there was finally a cough. ! Goodness, they actually survived!

Shen wasn't sure if that was a good thing or a bad thing.

Shen wasn't an outright nasty creature who wished for the deaths of innocent beings; he was just a simple void bird that wanted his asteroid field to be left alone and for his life to go relatively undisturbed. It would likely be many more thousands of years before his services would be needed by this great universe, so he'd like to take it easy as much as possible before then.

He crossed his arms over his chest, thinking intensely as a rather thin little alien scrambled out of the pod, coughing and wheezing. Yeah, that probably hadn't been the most fun ride.

Oh! Right. Before the alien noticed him, Shen quickly changed to his most human face so perhaps he would scare the little guy a tad less. They were probably pretty well shaken up.

Right, he didn't really WANT to hurt anybody when it wasn't necessary. Maybe he could help this one get back to land or something. He carefully stepped forward, clearing his throat to alert the other to his presence.

"Hey there, easy," He said, his voice a deep, rumbling timber, "You were just mixed up like a cocktail in a cobbler shaker."
