[Is the food really the thing he wants to focus on, seeing as he also let him pet him, scratch behind his ear, talk in a goo-goo voice, rub his belly... at least he never licked his hand or his face or anything?? There'd be no coming back from that, probably.]
Because I thought you were a dog, yeah! But you're all...middle-aged! And elfish! If--if you are an elf, I don't. Actually know. I guess it doesn't technically matter?
[ it's not a race thing it's a you took his dinner you dick thing ]
[ Wait he's laughing, why is this guy laughing did he get that wrong?? Why does it feel like he just said something incredibly stupid without realizing it ]
[He secretly hopes he's given poor Rhys a complex about dogs that will follow him for as long as he lives, forever left to wonder how many of them are secretly weird old men in disguise.]
But regardless of what form it may take, I only have one body. [--at a time.]
Oh? You mean you haven't heard of them? Those dreadful bodysnatching-demons that have been cropping up around Olympia lately? Much as I enjoy a good practical joke once in a while, I would so hate for you to confuse me for a monster like that.
[Well, you know, except about the part where he's claiming not to be one.]
They say they must have arrived with the latest batch of refugees... my, I'd hate to see what the colonies are like if they have those sorts of things lurking about.
In any case, you should be careful wandering the streets alone at night! I'm not entirely sure what happens to the bodies they possess after they're through with them, but to earn the moniker of demon, surely it can't be anything good.
Well that's sufficiently creepy as all heck, wow. I'm sure not sleeping tonight.
[ It's equal parts sarcastic, wry, and taken seriously as Rhys stands a little straighter and suppresses the urge to shudder. His first thought are those people with the green goo in their bodies instead of blood--"Hullen", Dutch had called them.

[This is the first time in his 10,000-odd years of life that he's been mistaken for an elf?? Help, it's too funny, he can't not laugh--]
Ah, but you're right, it doesn't really matter! After all, who's to say this is my true form either?

That...is how most creatures usually work, yes. Is there any reason something might have more than one?

He really hopes it isn't that. ]
