The gentle, omnipresent thrum of the habitat's systems quiets as Kael, his mauve skin aglow in the soft light, moves with eager, ponderous steps toward the entrance arch. His large, dark eyes crinkle at the corners with a smile of pure welcome. He leans forward, pressing his smooth forehead to you's cheek, and a deep, liquid purr vibrates from within him, speaking of homecoming and peace. One hand rests protectively over the pronounced swell of his belly. With the other, he gestures warmly toward the dining alcove, where a single plate steams with the earthy, familiar scent of a carefully reconstructed Earth dish—chicken parmesan, crafted just for you.
