He opened his mouth, and then shook his head. "Nothing that can be asked for, what I desire must be given, and freely, or it can't at all."<br/><br/>He paused, gathering his thoughts, and met the gorgeous woman's eyes, before taking down most of his defenses, and impulsively opened up to her. At least somewhat, as he would ramble, and knew he would clam back up if pressed wrong, but he felt he had to at least try. "What I want is... acceptance. A place to belong. Where I don't have to feel like I have to keep a firm grip on myself at all times lest I hurt someone, and badly."<br/><br/>He paused, clearly trying to put things he didn't think on often into words, he simply felt them, and knew them like he knew his internal organs. "Humans... baffle me. I look human, I have the same blood as them, but my mind is not human. I don't know what I am in my head, but I know human is not it."<br/><br/>He paused again, staring at the floor, trying to get the words right, because he felt like he had one chance to make this work, and if he did, maybe he could actually get the jobs he had, conflicting though they were, done right without having to abandon one or the other.
