Take Me to Your Leader
You land on another planet, Earth-like. As your hatch opens and the ramp lowers to the ground, you exit slowly, cautiously. There is a crowd of humanoid beings, and you also notice that the flora and fauna are the same as Earth. You quickly realize that there is convergent evolution here. A selected representative ascends the ramp to meet you halfway. Your research has prepared you well, and you say in their language, "Take me to your leader." He holds out his hand and leads you to a field, past the crowds, and presents you to a [animal of your choice]. Amazingly, it can talk! It says in perfect English, "Hello, Earthman." Describe your conversation with this [your chosen animal]. Bonus for including quirky rhetoric peculiar to this animal

August 21 will be the first time in 99 years that a total solar eclipse crosses the USA. Beginning after August 21--if you were lucky enough to experience totality--write about it. Any genre. No word limit. It'll be my first totality--I've waited all my life for this. I'll be there. Let those who saw it with me immortalize it.
Don't enter before August 21. No rules. All genres. I'll be entering myself, so winner will be by likes ("Democracy")

Your second date with God
You've already been on a first date with God and gotten all of the awkwardness, introduction, and nervousness out of the way. Now He's asked you out again and you hope to really discuss some interesting things with him. Since this challenge assumes God is androgynous, it doesn't matter whether your male or female.
