[Are these weird ones? Alloran honestly can't tell. He'll drink drain cleaner because the novel sensation is compelling and he likes to exercise his ability to choose things, and then demorph before it has the chance to hurt him.]
Very well.
[spicy tea get! it doesn't take that much negotiating tbh. Alloran is not excitable, so he consumes things slowly enough not to choke, even if it requires sucking semisolid objects through a straw, a bit of oral dexterity that doesn't feel natural to his people. And - yep, that's the burning false temperature and irritation he's learned is 'spicy', that affects not just the mouth but the lips and the throat. It gets stronger with each swallow and continues to build even when he pauses, even as he opens his mouth. Extraordinary!
His morphed body, a genetic copy of a dead woman, smiles suddenly, gives out Aria's startled-pleased laugh reflexively, high and less closed and cynical than her face as he wears it. He puts his hand to his lips and doesn't feel the burning with his fingers at all. Humans are slimy, so now his eyes are watering, even]
