“Clearing his throat and straightening in posture, Freddie spoke. “Hello.”
The creature tilted her head, her eyes scanning his face like blue lasers. She could hear him. Good. Encouraged, Freddie put a hand on his chest. “My name’s Freddie. And I’m going to be taking care of you. Feeding you, and the like.” He mimicked spooning food in his mouth to emphasize the last part.

Then, he remembered what the creature had eaten lately. Or, more specifically, who.”
