It has been nearly six hours.
Faris can feel it. The weakness is unmistakable. He's never experienced it before, but all K'da know what it means. He's been separated from his host for too long, long enough that he needs to join or he will die, and fade away into nothing.
He still isn't sure where this Nexus place is, but there are no Shontine that he's seen. No species he recognizes as one able to serve as hosts. There have only been two compatible races that the K'da know of, and he's seen neither. Robots, aliens, all manner of creatures, but nothing he recognizes.
This cannot be the end.
Movement, from the corner of his eye. The sight of painted skin, full of life and possibility. A human, perhaps. Faris has never met one before. But if this one has willingly inked his skin, perhaps it is possible... perhaps he would allow it. At least long enough to buy him some time.
The K'da gathers his remaining strength, ready to leap as soon as the human is in range. It may be the last thing he ever does, so he intends to make it count.

"Most times, there is a reason for why the Nexus has used its influence."

"But usually, the person or creature brought into the Nexus is done so... to help them in some way."
Hunter shrugs. "And perhaps your door would only open if there was someone like me around, who would not react negatively to your need."

He shifts position a little. "Do your markings have meaning?"
no subject
Hunter doesn't know if this is something that can be sensed or not, but explains in a little more details. "The tattoos were part of a magical curse."
"And now, they are just part of me."

"But I accept them now."

Faris decides to take advantage of Hunter's lack of shirt, which gives him a nice big area to emerge into his three-dimensional form again. He leaps, flowing off Hunter's skin and landing on all four paws in front of him.

But he does take a moment to study the creature in front of him.
"Are you going to be okay?"

"And until then, you do have my permission to synch with me, if it helps you to survive."

"I would like to help you."

Hunter frowns slightly. "But sometimes, doors disappear just as suddenly as they appear."
