Two years of living here - give or take - and this place has finally decided to start turning me into my alien-self. Except in my unlucky scenario, it's not a magical 'wake up and I'm blue and scaly' thing. It's uncomfortable with a touch of awkward, but it won't take much to adjust when it's all done. As a turian I can take a goddamn missile to the face and survive, on the bright side. It's happened. The scars were impressive.

Anyway, thanks to the transition I've experienced a growth spurt that's forced me to purchase an entire new line of clothing to accomodate the extra height and longer limbs. If you're about six feet and can fit in a large, I've got clothes that I need to get rid of. My wife's fussing about how it's all taking over the closet. The sooner the better.

I'd also comment about how much I'm going to miss the human taste of food, but my allergies (a cosmic joke, I'm sure) have made it damn near impossible to enjoy most things, so maybe not.

Do you cover your scars?

Considering the scars I referred to were on my face, no. We were on the brink of war. It wasn't uncommon.

I meant here. Or maybe you didn't wake up with your scars after the dream?

I was in the military, worked as a cop, then proceeded into an unsafe career change that involved violence on a regular basis - scars came with all three gigs. I'm not shy about them. They show exactly what you've survived.

The best part has been special ordering giant shoes. You're lucky you're married to Cinderella, it means having connections.

Though when feet become talons, that's probably a whole other thing.

Don't talk about my massive clown feet. I'm sensitive about them.

I can get my hands on some turian ware easily, which...is something that admittedly escaped my mind? I guess we can make a date of it. I try things on, you can tell me if it makes my ass look fat.

Big feet, big everything else.

Really? We can take another trip, this time to a space mall? That definitely needs to be a date ASAP.

I walked into that goldmine for penis jokes, didn't I.

It's a station meant to support a mish-mosh of civilization, so it's got plenty of things to take without cost. Human clothes too unless Shepard went on a massive shopping spree.

Either you or Neal are really good at jinxing me - one of you predicted one my marriage attempts, so I'm going to just tell you no.

That was entirely him - or perhaps it was me? But I'm a realist, that's all.

One of you or both of you. It took three tries. I'll pin part of the blame on you somehow, but at least I can wear possible facial scars stylishly.

How are you even awake with a newborn? Don't you have diapers to change?

I kind of know how you feel. I've taken on new physical attributes thanks to the dreams as well and changed species. Not quite as drastic, no blue or scales but my skin did change color. Hair too.

Changes seem to be a common thing around here. I guess I can appreciate this place giving me some time to enjoy my humanity, but what crap card did you get handed with?

[info]livmoore

I've definitely learned that. Two years seems like a long time before changing species. At least from what I've encountered. My skin is all pale now and my hair. I look like I live in the morgue, which I guess is kind of true.

Turning into the particular species I am involves a lot of changes, not just outer appearance. It's everything internal, and my diet will be completely altered. I won't be able to digest food found on this planet, but thanks to science and the miracles of Orange County I've found someone who can replicate dextro-amino foods.

Ah, so you looked like a corpse? Since those are the only things that live in a morgue.

I think I deleted that one dreadful Halloween selfie, though I'll bet you Cindy has an entire album of that time. I'll have to get one so you won't be surprised when you see me in my extraterrestrial splendor.

I think Cindy has been holding out on me. But don't worry, it takes a lot to shock me. There will be no screaming like a little girl when I do see you in all your glory.

Ohhh an alien species I've never met before! Don't mind me, I enjoy meeting new species and learning about them. What is a turian?

Appearance wise? I've heard humans think of us as the evolutionary link between dinosaurs and birds. We're bipedal with more scale and metallic plates than flesh, but we've got our soft, squishy parts here and there. Our carapace gives the impression of something turtle-like, and there's a crest from our heads people like to compare to cockatiels.

I take it you're an advenuterer of space in your dreams?

That sounds quite magnificent, really. You could almost be a relation to the Silurian race in my dreams. They evolved from dinosaurs the way humans evolved from primates.

I am! I'm the Doctor, a Time Lord, and I travel through time and space. I have much from the dawn of the universe to the end of the universe. But there are always more adventures to be had, more people and races to meet and planets to visit!
