Hiko listened as she explained. "Oh. The children. Yes. I suppose that does make sense." He said with a smile. "Yes. We know that human children and human adults are similar in proportions and anatomy just scaled different depending on age." He said with a nod of his head. He looked at her and blinked. "I do not see where you staring a hole into my body is a problem." He said with a smile. "Especially since you have made it quite clear you are very disinterested in me." He said. Those were her words in a very strong sense. She had made it quite clear she was not and would not be interested in him sexually or even on a friend level.<br/><br/>He saw the hint of a blush but didn't equate it to much. It was probably just a figment of his imagination. After all she had said on numerous occasions it was ackwardness not attraction that made her want him to not be naked. "I did not find someone back home very appealing. If I found someone on Earth that was appealing I would want to take them with me. Or I would figure out a way to permanently blend in. It is rare but it does happen that my people fall in love with a human. In those cases we have special pills that we can give a human to allow them to live on our home world. As I said these instances are quite rare but do happen." He looked away. "I already told you where my appealations lie but because it has been made quite clear there will be no relationships of any kind even friendship I am not willing to risk upsetting the one who is helping me."<br/><br/>He shook his head. "It was made quite clear the disinterest and for the sake of arguement I will not force my attentions on someone who does not wish them." He stared out the window. "So for now I will just not hold interest. Simply by detaching my emotions from myself. I will keep them further in check by not acknowledging they exist. I have seen humans do this sort of thing as well." He sighed a bit. "So I guess in that sense in arguements sake I do not have anyone who is appealing." He sounded quite saddened by this fact.<br/><br/>He looked back at her as she spoke. "Snow...so that is what it is called. I like that." He said with a smile. Grinning a bit as snow was quite fun to watch." He watched and laughed as she kicked snow up to the passenger window. He got out of the car and picked up snow. Tossing it at her but missed. "Darn. I wonder why that fell instead of flying. I have seen humans tossing the snow." He tried again. Missing the fact it was not in a ball so it would not fly. He listened to her as she spoke. At the same time he kept trying to throw some snow at her. Grinning as this was fun even though the snow was not cooperating. He laughed a bit until she started explaining. The fun drained from him as she spoke.<br/><br/>He looked at her. "Is freedom not a big thing for humans? I have observed that humans have had wars to fight for their freedom from oppresors." He spoke softly. Smiling a bit. "I appreciate you giving me a week of freedom. It means more to me than words can express. Even knowing I'll probably end up back in that cage at the end of the week...it means a lot to know I had a taste of freedom before ending up strapped to a table and experimented on. Which mind you some extraterristrials do but my people do not probe and experiment on humans. We are for the most part peaceful." He shook his head. "I will be saddened by the fact I most likely will lose this new found freedom yet understand you must do as you feel best. I can only pray then I do not become a lab rat and subjected to what equates to torture." He spoke sadly but at the same time happily.<br/><br/>He looked to the car. "I do like the vessel that we travel in. It is exciting and beautiful piece of machinary. I would rather like to know more about this vessel you call car." He said. Looking back at her and watched as she took his hands. He hadn't even noticed the coldness to his hands. It must be because of this shell being human and not alien. Normally the cold would not affect him. He looked at them in curiousity. "Curious...it seems because my shell is human that the cold affects me in the same way it would a human. Puzzling yet exciting." He watched her and then took her hand in his and repeated the process she had done. Because he was not human his warmed hers much more quickly then hers had his. He felt her hands warm beneath the still cool hands that were his bodies.<br/><br/>He looked at the snow. "Yes. Winter. During my studies I have learned that most but not all places in the world have a Spring, a Summer, a Fall, and a Winter. Each of these relatively different yet interlinked because they usually blend from one into the other. We have very little seasonage back home." He looked at her. "I appreciate you showing me stuff. I will in return teach you some about my people. It won't do you much good but as you are teaching me things I will teach you." He said decisively. He picked up some snow and dropped it on her. Laughing a bit. "I finally got some on you." He teased. "It is not how I have seen humans throwing it around but it is a start." He smiled. Then slowly dusted it out of her hair. Letting it fall into his other hand before depositing it back onto the ground. Stepping back and made sure she had none in her hair. "There. I got it all out. That was quite fun though. We should play in the snow more when we get to where we are going."<br/><br/>He looked thoughtful. "A fire...I have seen these. Are controlled fires like the wild fires I have seen that sometimes ravage forests or homes?" He smiled. "I would like to feel how this fire feels upon the form. I have seen some making controlled fires in the wild but you say there is a way to control the fire in a home. That sounds exciting. I cannot wait to see such a thing."
