Summary
The creature's eyes rake down him, emotion impossible to discern. "Oh, look at you," it says softly. "Hodrian, were you?"
Roach doesn't know. He's certainly never seen a creature like this one before - it must come from a planet much farther away.
"If you say so," he replies, pleased that this language at least can be understood. "And what are you, stranger?"
"Human," the creature replies. "And uninfested. I'd like to remain that way."
"Of course," Roach says, fidgeting with his host's hands. "This host was dead when I found it."
The creature tilts its head. Then, it turns back to stare into the bowels of its ship, raises its voice; "Soap, come out. Found you a friend."
