A pale blue light filled the room. The young man's pale face looking ghostly as the old school terminal shined in his wide eyes. A half dozen interfaces flickered and moved, their contents being scanned through quickly and discared or changed in his desperate search. His name was Yiki, a cat tailed extraterrestrial quite a long way from his home planet. What was he doing spending so much time on the computer instead of out enjoying one of the largest trade federation cities on a day where the radiation wasn't dangerously high? Looking for a room mate.

Yiki had just lost his most recent roommate when the other had gotten an offer to colonize a far away planet. And so here he was, with an empty bedroom and nobody to talk to. And he wanted to change that. And what better place than online to find someone who could ease that boredom? Dozens of potential candidates were thrown aside because of various reasons. Most were because they felt fake, or suspicious to say the least. Until he found the most recent one. Interestingly enough, it lacked a picture, where as all the others this one did not. That fact was both alarming and interesting, and Yiki couldn't help but be intrigued as he read further. He would send a message with pictures of the modest two bedroom apartment, with the explination that no rent would be needed as long as they were willing to take care of the house like she, if she was a she, offered. Eagerly he waited a reply, to see if this person was interested as well.
 
Clerue had reposted her offer many times. Everyone was terrified of her claimed she lied on her profile. She didnt lie she just didnt say what she looked like. She was able to do everything she had in her profile. Clerue sighed softly when a message came in offering a nice place. She messaged back "id like to meet up before agreeing to it. She needed to show herself before agreeing
 
Yiki had only just leaned back in his chair to wait for a reply when one came, his chair creaking as he straightened up to look. The fact that she wanted to meet before agreeing led him to think even more that this was an earnest request, and not fake profiles or those ones made for hook-ups. He responded quickly, fingers clattering at his metallic keyboard. "Gladly, there is a park nearby, as well as a bakery that caters to most species."
 
Clerue smiled, good start. She typed on her pink cat phone. "I work at the heart cafe by your place we can meet there and ill get you the best pastry there. " she messaged back.
 
Knowing exactly where she was talking about, though not once did he ever go in. Yiki sent one more reply before jumping out of his seat, his tail flicking to each side in anticipation for an amswer. "When do you work next and who should I ask for?" He asked, the silence of the text making him impatient.
 
Clerue smiled and typed back her multiple eyes all looking at the screen. Her tentacles eyes all move on their own accord sometimes annoying her. " i work tomorrow morning come in for breakfast. Ask for Clerue. "
 
Yiki was glad that they could move this along so quickly, anticipating the moment with nervous tension as he replied with "Will meet you then." And logged off from his computer to go about tidying up his home. The next morning he would be up bright and early, having checked the location online repeatedly so as not to get lost, he left his home dressed in a very tight gray top that accented his lithe cat like form, and a pair of black shorts with a hole cut out for his cat like tail. In truth it only seemed like so, being more of an extra sexual organ, from which eggs would be deposited into a mate, as well as a port for technology specifically for his people.

Arriving just a half hour after they opened, he went to the counter. "I am supposed to ask for Clerue?" He told whomever manned the counter, "We had a meeting for this morning, and I'm not sure who she is."
 
Yiki was greeted by a short alien in the adorable cafe uniform. she smiled cutely "welcome to heart cafe~" her expression changed from cute to a glared "your not another one of those assholes who wants to make her cry are you?" She asked looking very threatening for her size.
 
He looked down at the little alien, wanting to pat her head but seriously doubting that he would be able to escape with all his fingers still unbroken. "Why would I make her cry? I'm here because, well I don't know just yet. Made an offer to have her be my new roommate if you really have to know." Yiki replied, wondering what could be the reason that this woman was so defensive.
 
The small girl smiled and walked away she walked into the kitchen and spoke with someone in the back. An eye tentacle looked around the corner at yiki and seemed to smile before a gray hand grabbed it pulling it back. The small girl came back out "please follow me ill get you a seat. Clerue will be out in a few minutes with her treat."
 
Yiki smiled, looking at the corner and seeing what he that was an eyestalk. Which was alright, that wasn't the strangest species he had seen before. Was this just another of this Clerue's guardians? "Gladly." The man replied, taking a seat near the back of the of the shop, a table off in the corner with only one other chair there.
 
About 10 minutes went by before a girl came out with a single plate. She was gray skinned liike she had some black gunk on her skin. She had one large eye. Her long black hair flowed down and a fluffy black tail flowed from under the dress. Clerue forced her tentacles to hide for now but knew she couldnt hide them long they were too curious. She sat with him "h-hello im Clerue. I brought you a tasty chocolate filled pastry we sell"
 
Yiki sat in silence, looking about to all the workers he could see fluttering about, wondering who it would be. He did not expect the one who did show, wondering if maybe she had been hiding in the kitchen. He was almost instantaneously put off, his tail drooping where before it had flicked with interest. The goopy looking skin and the single eye would make most cringe, though he did find the fluffy looking tail to be cute at least. All in all, she left a lot to be desired physically, but Yiki swallowed any comments.

"Thank you, it looks delicious." He said looking to the plate, but not touching the pastry for now. "I'm Yiki. So, you were the one looking for somewhere to stay? Mind if I ask why?"
 
"Well i cant afford a place of my own and my current roommate the girl who greeted you cant afford to keep her apartment so i have to get a new place and roommate. Ive been searching for awhile now but everyone seems to reject me at this point " as clerue spoke one of her eye tentacles went under the table on its own and went up his lap looking up at him.
 
Yiki nodded to her answers, looking at the girl. She wasn't completely unattractive the more he looked, just... okay it would need some getting used too. And it's not as if he was doing this to look for a girlfriend or anything, bit a roommate. "Really? Why would th..." he stammered at the end, slidimg hiz chair back quickly and collapsing over onto the floor with a shout of surprise.

The other guests went silent, but as Yiki tried to laugh it off and stand they started murmering again. A quick look from where he sat on the floor conmected the eye to the woman he was talking too. "I think I see now." He spoke, dusting pastry off his shirt that he must have grabbed as he fell. "I don't really see an issue as to why you can't."
 
Clerue blushe cutely and the tentacle retreated into her fluffy tail. "I dont control my eyes, I cant, they kinda move on their own. they like to sneak peeks including looking at you from a different angle like just now. Im not hot but im not ugly. My eyes scare everyone off. I hope you can allow me to live with you. Im very good at cooking and cleaning. " clerue had a disapointed face expecting to be rejected.
 
"That, makes sense." Yiki commented as he righted his chair, setting the four wooden legs down securely. Silently he lamented the loss of his pastry. "Don't say that, I think you're plenty cute enough... for some people. And if you are capable of what you say then I think you'll be fine living with me." Said the man, his cat like tail wrapped around the leg of a chair. What could he say? He couldn't fight against a girl when she looked pitiful.
 
Clerue lit up and purred the tentacles all came out. Looking at the male all the eyes looked so happy. "Does that mean i can live with you?
 
Seeing her brighten up like that was almost worth the uneasy disgust he felt at being the target of a sudden outburst of eyeball tipped tentacles. Gulping Yiki nodded. "If you aren't packed, do so when you get off work. I'll go tell the landlord." He said rising. To not sick the mutt on her for one he thought. But at least she was cute, when he wasn't being surprised by those stalks. "You have my address, let me know when you get there and I'll help carry your things."
 
Clerue smiled "ill pack tonight and be there in the morning~ thank you so much! I'll even make you a delicious breakfast tomorrow morning!" She said smiling big and looking adorable despite the tentacles
