Can't stop drawing these little fellows; I call them gegeckers.

I don't do much creature design. Still trying to iron out various tweaks in their design that I keep changing. Are you immediately wanting to pet any, or what would need to change for that to happen? My main goal is mushroom-cuttlefish vibes in a friendshape.
I also want to define their biology a bit more, but I don't have much technical knowledge about that stuff. Generally, I imagine their heads are mostly lungs and they tweet like a bird and parrot some sounds. They can hold a note for a painfully long time. They can fit their head and arms into really small spaces as there is little bone in there. And they can temporarily make their heads textured/coloured to look like other things to a degree. They have 5 face tendrils, the centre is the strongest for grappling/holding, the off-centre two are a bit weaker and thinner, used for manipulating, and there are two sensitive ones almost always tucked back and away, used for feeling/sensing details of things they pick up. They often sit/stand on their hind legs like meerkats and prairie dogs because their arms are super weak and their centre of mass is weirdly distributed.
