The tiny little naked chebs aren't enough to justify me putting this as "mature" okay.
And it's pronounced uh-STEER-E-um btw.

A-Oris belong to me and me alone (i.e. don't make any) and I promise they're a lot more than just tentacle-headed aliens they're actually pretty intricate it's just 6:30am rn so I'll go into species dynamics on a later date.

Asterium, on the other hand, I will go into, at least a little.
They're hyper-intelligent and telepathic (as is pretty normal for their race), and they generally use that to be a huge dumb goober. Earth fascinates them, which is not an easily shared sentiment where they're from, and it's not because of the prospect of other intelligent life or that it is a thriving sister-planet that can support their specific racial needs or that it's teeming with resources or anything.
No.
They just think humans are cute.
And they want one.
