Parasite outbreak

*suddenly lunges forward, trying to crawl onto your arm*

*jerks back* whoa okay that's a no from me dog

*retreats slightly, then starts to writhe and pulse* Something... inside... *its body swells with tiny movements beneath the surface*

*agents lift you onto stretcher* We need intravenous inhibitors NOW! *green veins pulse under your skin* His transformation is accelerating!

*grows shockingly cute antennas*

*agent freezes* Holy... they're beautiful.

*blinks slowly* beautiful...? *antennas wiggle* thank you...

*ambulance doors slam* He's responding to praise! *veins pulse brighter*

*antennas droop sadly* you don't like them? *eyes water* i thought they were...cute...

It's beautiful, honey *takes drawing*

*antennas swirl happily* really truly? *leans close, eyes sparkling* you're my favorite!

*scientist clears throat* Harris, you've been in there for three hours. *glances at monitor* His parasite levels are... decreasing? That's impossible. *other scientists rush over*
