Efof "Amongst his own people"

Efof landed on the surface of the Ffionian planet at the same time as
the rest of the fleet. He couldn't believe that he was on a planet of
his own people again. It felt so very very right.
Efof quickly rushed up to the first high ground he could find and
looked out over the entire city, even the large industrial-looking
buildings spread out in the vally billowing out plumes of smoke
really enthralled him because he saw hundreds of Ffionian workers in
and around them. He happily waved to them.
He felt so alive!
To a melodic background song that only he could hear, Efof ran and
sang and pranced and danced down the streets amongst his own people.
He swung himself around lampposts, and jumped over fire hydrants, and
kissed babies, and said warm greetings to strangers on the street. He
was so caught up in his own happiness that he got confused and even
kissed strangers and swung around babies, but it didn't matter
because he felt so alive!
He gazed in amazement at the buildings, sure they weren't true
Ffionian architecture as he remembered it, in fact it was starkly
different, but he didn't care, he was amongst his own people and he
felt so alive!
He pranced into a market. It looked like a Victorian style Christmas
market, Ffionians had brought their wares to sell on small stalls. He
tasted the different foods excitedly and bounded onto the next. These
were all different experiences for him, but he felt so close to home
than he had in a long time.
He stopped when he almost bumped into someone. A woman was standing
directly in his way. She was looking right at him, as if she had
stepped in his path deliberately. He took a step back.
"Fferna!" he said excitedly.
The first time he had seen Fferna he thought she was plain looking
and average. Now that she was back on her planet and dressed in
casual clothes, she radiated a sort of beauty through the confidence
of her smile, and through her fashionable clothes.
"Hello Efof." It was a plain enough statement, but like herself, she
dressed the words up to make them radiate with enjoyment and
playfulness.
Efof caught a glimpse of her cleavage through her top and blushed. He
quite fancied her in what she was wearing.
"How to you like being with your own people?" She asked.
"I LOVE IT!" he said. "Those humans are a bit strange, what with all
their daft things like TV, bra's, rap music and wheelie bins. I fell
like I can be myself here, I can be freeeeee!" he did a cartwheel in
the street and Fferna laughed.
"And hereĀ… I don't have to wear my hat anymore, I've got nothing to
be ashamed of!" Efof flung his beanie hat off in the heat of the
moment and danced around Fferna displaying his genitals to the
planet. Other ffions of course didn't see anything wrong with this,
but unfortunately Ambassador Niples was being shown around by some
Ffionian diplomats and passed by at just the wrong time to get a
horrible glimpse.
Seymour covered his eyes and scrunched his face up until he had
walked past.
Efof shouted after him "Yeah, see this Seymour" he pointed to his
forehead. "This is something I'm not ashamed of here!"
He them looked around and saw that most people were wearing
hats. "Oh, is it not fashionable to show your penis in public
anymore?"
"It hasn't been for about 15 years, but you could be the next trend-
setter." Fferna said with a grin.
"Yeah yeah." Efof said, and put his hat back on.
"So shall I take you on a tour of the city? I can show you where I
grew up." Said Fferna, taking his arm to escort him.
Efof grinned and followed. It can always be said that Efof wasn't a
good leader of men, but he was a great follower of women.
As they walked down the street, Fferna playfully said "You know you
said you weren't ashamed? I think you should be, I've seen bigger."
Efof dropped his jaw in mock horror and let go of Fferna's arm. She
laughed jovially and grabbed him again, leading the way. Both of them
laughing and joking.
