Alex blinked, "ok I promise I won't scream"

"It's, ah…" they didn't know how to do this. So they just reached back and undid the pins holding their ears back, wincing faintly. Then they gathered their hair in their hands and pulled it back. The soft, rabbit-like ears shifted into view, and Lux watched Alex nervously.

Alex just stared for a moment, not sure how to react, nor understanding fully what was happening.

They blinked, still waiting anxiously for some kind of response from Alex. "They're, ah, not a body mod." they said quietly. "Neither are my freckles. Or my hair."

"what are you?" he muttered.

They looked away for a moment. "Ah…not a human?"

Alex rolled his eyes, "there are way to many things in this world that are not human bro"

They shrugged faintly. "I'm not from Earth, then, how about that."

"so- … you lied, you do know stuff about aliens!" he stood up.

"Well…yeah." they said slowly.

Alex crossed his arms, "so unfair….wait…why are you here?"

"What do you mean?"

"why did you come to my house?" He rolled his eyes.

"Because I'm in trouble."

"what happened?"

"Government found out."

“Oh…are you ok, is your parents ok?”

"I…I don't know."

Alex stood up and went and hugged Lux, "it will be ok"

They leaned into him a bit.

he petted Lux.

Lux shifted faintly, ears twitching a little.

alex sighed, "i am here for you bro"

Lux shrugged, closing their eyes for a moment. "Okay."

Alex having no idea what to do. "ok"
