“Could we break from the festivities for a little bit? I know we’re celebrating Hedoro’s recovery and all, but something just crossed my mind and I’d better act on it now before I forget. You remember that one movie we watched about…I’d say a month ago? Blue alien, little girl, tropical setting… I think it was a direct port from Earth… Anyway, I was considering, you know, transforming into one of those, oh shoot….what were the called. What where the called... I know the technical binom, but the common name escapes me… I think it was…frick, humans? You know, might as well try out something different. What’s the harm? Well, there’s one major league problem. As you two know, I’m a tad chromatically challenged. Being devoid of colors is both a blessing and a curse. Now, I could go albino, but I’d be whiter than a sheet. Plus – I’m not going to lie – I’ve got a bit of a partiality towards the more tawny-skinned individuals prominent during that movie’s duration. Yeah, I can already see confusion permeating your faces, so I’ll make this quick: In order for me to obtain any color, I need to extract and duplicate it from organic beings, such as yourselves…and that’s basically why I need your assistance. Would you two be willing to help?” |
