Go, go. [Dan urges Stacia to gather the others and go through the door so that they can start their part of this. His role now is to just make sure no one discovers Planker and that Alloran goes out and is sufficiently public to establish an alibi.
Like Alloran, Dan uses touch to use his power, in this case to catch people's emotions when he touches them. The physical Planker in front of him doesn't reflect the anger of the illusion taking swings at Stacia. Dan just feels blankness.] You and me, Blue.
[Dan isn't about to blame Alloran's morphing for being unpleasant. You can't hold it against a being that their natural powers are unappetizing any more than you can castigate the whole human species for their bodily functions being being as unappealing as belching. Nature doesn't design for human aesthetic appreciation, with some exceptions; people are just wired to find beauty in places they weren't intended to, sometimes. When natural things are lovely across species and type, it's so often a happy accident of the sapient brain, not that the world was made with being pleasant and alluring to humans as a goal.
Thus, if Dan finds this "remarkably ugly", well, that's on him, not on Alloran.]
If you don't mind me watching, Alloran, I can't say I ain't curious.
