- >The exterminator angel is back for another visit
- >"Human"
- >They brought something with them this time, but you're still too afraid of them to do anything but pretend to stay sleep and hope they go away without hurting you
- >"Human~"
- >"H̸̥̞͈̓̊̑u̶̯̫̍͜ḿ̵͉͉̔̈́ả̸̳̣͍̜͂͐ṅ̵̦͔͂ͅ~"
- >You feel warm metallic fingers stroking your hair, and smell the sharp heat of an active forge tempered by the cool, sterile, silicon-scent of a freshly opened bit of high-end electronics
- >The exterminator is making even weirder noises than usual
- >They've helped themselves to a seat at the bed's edge, rather than the typical cat-like hunching over you
- >It's going to be a long night

- >Eventually, exhaustion overtakes agitated fear, and you conk in spite of the fact that you have a creepy, litebrite-faced mechanical angel petting you
- >When you wake up, they're gone
- >All that remains to mark their visit is a scattering of odd, silvery feathers
- >And a package
- >Obviously meant as a gift
- >The box is battered and looks like it was torn apart by an animal and then sealed back up with tape, but the ribbon tied in an awkward bow around it marks it as a present
- >You manage to get it open, after far too much time spent fussing with it
- >Its contents are...
- >Odd
- >Like a laundry list of things that someone who had only ever seen the human race through distant observations would think humans liked
- >A T-shirt
- >Not your size
- >An ice cream bar
- >The plastic package is floppy and squishy. It's obviously melted, and has been for some time
- >A crumpled wad of bank notes and a few coins
- >Not a particularly impressive sum, but not an insubstantial one either, though about half of it is in mixed foreign currencies
- >A few magazines and a newspaper
- >The latter out of date, the former on subjects you have no vested interest in
- >At the least, you're sure they meant well with this gesture
