Hrax wandered the Festival with a perpetual smile on his face, clad only in white beach shorts and sandals. The night breeze felt good on his bare skin and the locals took every opportunity they could to touch it, stroke it, and paint it. There were fuschia handprints on his back, streaks of fluorescent green trailing over his arms, and splatters and dots here and there. He was a walking graffiti wall of joy, which pleased him, as did the local population's habit of bluntly stating their thoughts.
His belly was happy, having been filled with various delicacies both liquid and more substantial, and he had a slight buzz in his brain from the last drink. In his hands, he toyed with two objects that he had won in a game that involved balancing on one foot while being tickled with a yellow feather. He passed the two shiny, turquoise-colored orbs back and forth between his hands, noting how they warmed the more they were moved. Once he got them back on the ship, he'd have to scan them to figure out the mechanism, but for now he was content just to enjoy the novelty.
A shout caught his attention and he increased his step to where a crowd had gathered near a collection of bright, flaming torches. As he pressed his way into the mob, he was finally able to see what the commotion was about. Stretching about twenty meters was an in-ground pool filled with a strange substance. Taking turns, visitors and Pelebians alike were attempting to move across it. Points were given for originality, but the participant would lose if they sank. Suddenly, Hrax realized what it was, a non-newtonian fluid!
"Hold my balls," he said to the person next to him, handing off the items without looking. "This I have to try!"
