Raising the slice of pizza to his face in both hands in a particularly murine fashion, Luci gnaws his way through the strange edible necklace that he typically only nibbles at in order to survive.
Eventually finishing the slice after a minute, tentacles at once begin to sprout their way from under his shoulder-blades and coil around him in a fashion that has grown comforting as of late, growing in number until enwreathing him fully in an almost swaddling fashion — leaving only his serene and dozing expression visible.
When after quite some time he finally decides to leave his warm and familiar embrace, a half dozen cherubim swarm around the empty necklace, standing only 4 inches tall and adorned in old Roman garb as Lares reattach tiny globules of dough and sauce to the thread: one piece at a time by hand.
I left the face open on the cocoon since from a visual standpoint I pictured it as looking better and it also better explains being able to perceive his environment. Please do not blast him in the face with a flamethrower
(Cocoon stuff is probably normally done with transparent forcefield energy stuff, so just explain the face part as that if needed)
Original thought was for fairies to be rebuilding the pizza, but Contract fey would sooner kill and eat an unattended child than help him in any way, so based it on old Roman house spirits since he has Italian heritage and those are probably less evil

During recent testing, UA-566 has demonstrated its ability to survive for long periods without oxygen. During the engagement, UA-566 was fully submerged in a tank of water with other aquatic life for a total of 48 hours. The subject did not lose consciousness for the entire testing period, not even for the purpose of sleeping. It was seen occasionally feeding on fish, though other than this predation behavior, it spent most of its time staring directly at the research directors present throughout the period. The three researchers have requested transfers out of Site-5, citing intense paranoia and fear stemming from this interaction. These emerging memetic properties are in need of further research.
