Weary. Even after he'd explain what happened. A long stretch of silence follows.
Watching his form change to seem more human..
"I'm technically the only hybrid of my kind that exists..a xenomorph, what are you?"
❝ I’m the last of my species. ❞
It may smell of smoke currently, having forced a ship to crash after taking out all its crew members. It shifts its form to look more human limb wise, its tail disappearing.
❝ they destroyed my home. ❞
By the time the other had finished speaking, it had already shifted to looking fully, normally human, blending in with society, all it needed to learn was how to physically speak.
❝ not a human, not someone going to get in my way. ❞
