Gentlemen I'm torn between two design choices

You see, I want to do a comic where an Alien tries to do some weird stuff with a previous TGed character because he detected odd energies coming from him/her. What would end up happening, is that the alien himself would get TGed (well technically more than that but I don't want to spoil too much).

I'd like our alien to end up with both an alien babe form and a disguised human forms. The alien form she keeps secret (only the guy she is banging is aware of it) while the disguised form is what she uses to interact with most humans.

Thing is, when I think about these I have 2 radically different design/personalities in mind, and they clash a bit.

1 - For a human form I like the idea of a serene and calm girl that tries to act in logical ways, and always has a deadpan/emotionless tone - The catch is that she doesn't understand human interaction and will do inappropriate things in public with a straight face

Examples of the vibe:

2 - But when I think about an alien looking alien girl form, what I find more appealing is a very cutesy alien girl, there is an appeal of having a logical alien becoming a walking space pin up that acts silly.

Examples:

My original idea was to do 2 aliens for each take, but I would rather try to not overwork myself with this one. I'm not sure which one to go, or of a good way to tie both takes. What are your thoughts? Which you prefer?

I’d say the second one. There’s a lot of creativity you could do there with design and character, like being completely fascinated and curious to regular human stuff.

I vote for the second one, because personally I'd like to see you try something a little more silly than usual + a cute alien girl sounds more fun than a seductive type.

It seems like if you make the disguise include a work persona, then you can have both. Logical but lacking understanding of social ques is just the public face, and when she's off duty, you get the cutsey one who amps up the silly because its been so repressed from the work.

I vote for the first one. The cutesy type never did much for me personally.

You can't provide Nico Robin as an example and expect me to not go all in on that option.

Id probably go with type 1 there could be a funny difference between her intelligence and deadpan expression and her not understanding human interactions maybe even missing a guy in the street.

You might find a minor character from El Goonish Shive to be a decent reference for this. Her name is Lavender, and she's an Uryuom. There's a bunch of links to pages where she features at the bottom of this page: https://elgoonishshive.fandom.com/wiki/Lists_of_Lavender_Appearances_By_Form_and_Section Actually that page doesn't make finding the comics themselves all that easy. Here's two that show off her forms: https://www.egscomics.com/comic/falsekings-023 https://www.egscomics.com/comic/falsekings-029 In short, her "real" form is along the same lines as the "cutesy alien babe" look you provided, while she also has shape-shifting powers that let her take on a realistic human form for interacting with humans who don't know her.

Why not both? Have her put on a hyper-stoic and deadpan persona in her human form under the mistaken impression that humans are fundamentally rational beings and that we behave as such, and have her be cutesy in her 'natural' alien form, when she thinks nobody's watching.

The second please

I like the version of the alien you used in the concept art a few days ago, who I now know to be option 1. The whole "I grabbed your penis to signal interest" bit was really hot to me, especially when she's looking like Robin lol.
