Aster watched her face turn red an expression unfamiliar to him. Yet, as soon as the bitterness softened on his tongue, he realized his criss-cross seating on the table and the now wetness of his clothes was an uncomfortable feeling.
He got off the table, wobbled a little in his gait, and patted the wet spots on his onesie-like outfit with his hands. The water wasn't flowing off it like it would his feathers. He grabbed the apron and started patting himself down, but even then it wasn't working. The wet portions on his upper torso pressed the silk against his supple features, strong arms and back due to constant flapping in his Hummingform.
>>"You're a person." She spoke with surprise. "I-I mean I know you are a person, I mean you're right there how could I not know you're a person but I didn't know it 'til now"
"No. I'm a Hummer. I just turn into a person sometimes." Aster stretched his jaw and felt the hoarseness in his throat. He looked appalled to be speaking so fluently. He wasn't used to doing anything other than sleep in his human form, and the last time he tried to do anything other was an utter disaster.
The fact that the cold had less effect on him in this form also felt so much cozier than having to snuggle as a Hummingbird.
>>"I mean, do you want some tea?"
"What's tea?" Aster asked, taking care not to make sudden movements, since it still felt weird being all wet. He stared at her, still holding her apron, then realized it must have been something he could wear like her fuzzy vine. He wrapped it around his neck like she had, though it still wasn't as comfortable.
