I think everyone expected to see a man emerge— possibly something a little unlike us terrestrial men, but in all essentials a man. I know I did. But, looking, I presently saw some- thing stirring within the shadow: greyish billowy movements, one above another, and then two luminous disks—like eyes. Then something resembling a little grey snake, about the thickness of a walking stick, coiled up out of the writhing middle, and wriggled in the air towards me—and then another.

I read an SF story where the aliens were able to take over because they were so cute.

The choices used to be “little green men” or BEMs (bug-eyed monsters). Now we also have the hilariously cute squid-like creature!
Stop laughing, Lio. It’s not polite.
Ishmael may make a new friend….
