"We're aliens on a world that treats them like lab rats. My dad's put in a lot of work and risk making sure people don't find out." Ziggy relaxes into the hug and lets out another long breath. "They're not comfortable with my presentation either."

His light body sunk back against Tony who could probably feel the pounding of Ziggy's heart in his back at the bottom of his ribs. Relaxing more he felt the strange thing on Tony's chest and paused before sliding to the side to press his hand to his chest. He had seen the strange radiation before but never realized there was something there on the human's chest.

"What is that?" He asks curiously. His fingers working around the edge of the shape without much thought. "I saw your chest was strange but I didn't know there was... something?"

Whatever hurt Ziggy was feeling was forgotten as he leaned up just a little to look at Tony. This was something unexpected and pulled his full curiosity.

He's laughing though and leaning back again when he feels warm fingers slide between skin and fabric. "Are you going to take my boots off too?"

Unlike his usual clothing, he is wearing several layers. The big platform boots were certainly going to need removed first.
