"Spicy...?" Spicy was a flavour, right? Tenta knew about flavours but didn't really understand because, well, they had no sense of taste. They felt things in their hands and against their face and teeth, but after that food was just. In them. Gone. Infinitely compressed.

The brief thought was cut even briefer because then SK was touching their head tentacles, and Tenta's blush spread even more. Things generally felt cool against their head tentacles, since their glowy redness came with a lot of internal heat, but SK's hands just felt really nice. They gently wrapped the marshmallow-squishy tentacles around the half-drow's hands, lightly holding them back, and beamed.

"I have hands too!" They weren't warm, though, nor as squishy. Just as squishy as their face, but without the risk of eating things. Their arms and hands were intact and had no openings to infinite darkness. Tenta showed SK their hands, tiny and delicate, and then snuggled against the half-drow.

"Yeah, spicy," SK repeated. It occurred to him that since black holes just sucked stuff in, that maybe Tenta couldn't taste anything, and they just ate and ate and ate and ate without any regard to whether or not it actually tasted good. That made SK sad. The whole reason to eat stuff was because stuff tasted good and filled your belly.

But if Tenta was always eating, and never felt any fuller, and never tasted what they ate, then....

That was so sad....

The half drow held the head tentacle and felt its warmness. It felt smooth and had an odd texture that he'd never felt before. It reminded him of that time he held a snake, except that Tenta's tentacle was warm.

Then they felt something else around their wrist. It was small and bendy, so he hadn't realized it was a hand. Looking at it, they used both hands to inspect the black hole's hands. Gently, they touched tiny fingers and squished them a little. Amazing.

When he was snuggled against, they wrapped their arms around their new, cute friend. "We should figure out how to make it so that you can taste things. Tasting is like, the best part of eating!"
