#silver eyes

LIVE

Ah well if it isn’t the most punchable dude in the franchise

Those of you who read my unicorn post closely, will remember that Ruby’s horn and hooves were a silver originally purchased for alien eyes.  And at least one of you asked what the alien looked like.  Well, the alien’s story has been on my list to share for a while, and here it is. :-)

Xeno the alien’s human first contacted the hospital just over a year ago.  Isn’t that a great name for an alien, Xeno?  Anyway, it took a few months for him to send photos of Xeno, and they arrived in early fall.  As he wrote, “Xeno is a bit under the weather lately.”  Here is one of his diagnosis photos:

As you can see, this showed his blindness, and some of the dirt and stuffing loss (you can see that best in his arm).  He also had some minor tears.  We agreed the best treatment would be a spa and recovering his eyes.  Here is the intergalactic explorer enjoying his first bubble bath:

You can start to see the edges of his eyes, which were clearly silver.  Once clean and dry, he was restuffed and of course had a heart of stars with a bit of his original stuffing:

His bath was quite successful and he brightened up nicely.  He had one small mark (perhaps it was a marking common on his planet?) that wouldn’t come out:

But he was nice and clean and plump.  We restored his eye sight with that nice thick shiny silver fabric you saw on Ruby. Here are some photos sent to get his chubbiness right.  His spine is still open in them:

Approved!  He got closed up and took the next UFO to his earthly home in IA.

His family wrote:

Xeno is home safe! Thank you so much for helping him out! He and I really appreciate all you’ve done!

And they sent this photo of him happily back in his human family’s hands:

Silver eyes…
