Uala still didn't know how to interpret all the sounds he made, but xe'd figured out at least that the curve of his lips was supposed to be… good? Reassuring? Blue, for someone who was always brown.
Xe let him go when he pulled away, watching his gestures. So many little wiggling fingers! Before xe could try to interpret he was ducking down, making xem back away so he wouldn't headbutt xyr legs. "Ah, ye!" xe said as the first waterpouch exploded, realizing now what he was trying to do. But it was too late, and xe wondered if the words he was saying meant something similar. Xe ran to grab a towel, returning with haste to drape it over his fingers, pressing a tentacle toward his mouth to indicate that he was extremely wrong and should stop evacuating his lungs everywhere.
"Ye ai'ae, ai'ae weh," xe said. "Wa'er?" xe attempted, but xe could not quite get the t, and still had to buzz for the r. Xe was listening more carefully to his sounds, now, trying to isolate things that might be words. "No?" Xe had no idea if xe was using that correctly, but xe soldiered on. "No wa'er. Wa'er no. No no." Xe held out tentacles as xe moved away, hopefully indicating that he should not move or dump things on himself or breathe aggressively. Digging through a cabinet, xe returned with something that should help. It helped on other animals with this kind of allergy, anyway.
If he broke out in hives, xe was done. Done.
To demonstrate for him – and because now xe was itchy – xe took the little powder puff and patted it against the sucker that had touched his hand. Then xe took the towel away from him to pat the puff gently on the irritated areas, where it would hopefully act to absorb the allergenic oil. Xe buzzed again as xe waited to see if it would work. "Roan…?" Xe hesitated, unsure how to best convey the idea of 'better'. So xe reached toward his face again, and this time tried to move the skin above his eyes back where it belonged and tilt his mouth upward. "Aiai?"
