“He’s a changeling: him and his partners are trying to imitate us so they can steal the aegis. But- uh, I think you literally blew his mind, Gabe.” Kol says, stepping up to get a better look at his doppelgänger.
Stripped of his glamour, the fey sprawls like a tipped over suit of armor: all heavy plates and gleaming claws. The ridge of his brow juts forward, forming a sturdy horn that is clearly designed to lift opponents. A thick bundle of spines stick out from the back of his head in a bushy mess. Multi-faceted eyes stare back at him in the darkness of the alleyway, silently pleading for aid.
“Alright, hang on.” Kol mutters, reaching down to help out. The changeling hooks its claws around his wrist, clearly trying not to pierce his rescuer, and Kol pulls him to his feet.
“Bzzzb? You… is me?”
“Well, more like you are me. But, yeah.” Kol sighs and explains, “We already unmasked ‘Gaybe’ and my other partner knows where your third hive-mate is going. You might as well come with us. We have a proposition for you guys.”
The insectoid fey points to Gabe and buzzes, “Mouse… mouse suck good.”
“Uh-huh.”
“Suck… good-good!” Cole points again, “We go. More suck good?”
