RE: Night Out [Closed] - SolitareLee - 10-18-2019

It was probably inappropriate to say shook in relation to sexual revelations about arguably the single most powerful species in the galaxy, but. Kari was shook. He was, in fact, all the way back to stunned. His brief respite of 'a normal person having a normal conversation, about dicks' was clearly over.

If he looked briefly intrigued and perhaps enthused at the possibilities of two dicks--look, one didn't get far in the galaxy by being narrow-minded--it was swept away quickly by the realities of what dicks designed to make the holes they went into would be like. Eeeek. Some things in this universe were better left as pages in a biology text book.

"That's, uh..." he paused, searching for the right word. "Terrifying," he settled on finally. Despite this admission of fear, however, his hand hadn't retreated, and his eyes hadn't lost their curiosity. Like he was going to get chased off now! This was the most interesting thing that had happened to him in months. He might never get a chance to chat with a Krotazi, about dicks or anything else. Although ey didn't seem to keen on spending the rest of the night talking. Which was weird, because it almost seemed like ey were--

Oh.

Oh.

His eyes widened a fraction. Of course ey were. Hadn't ey just said, outright, that ey liked fooling around, with humans, in a manner involving dicks, in a manner that might make most men extremely upset? He was not only talking to a Krotazi; he was talking to a Krotazi that was actively trying to get under his skirt, and probably had been the whole time. All those confused moments that seemed like flirting had, in fact, been flirting. He had definitely been flirting with a giant snake alien with two murder dicks, this entire time, and he was going to have to figure out real fuckin' quick whether or not he'd been bluffing. He leaned back, eyes taking on a new, considering glint.

"Normally, it's not terribly hard to get me to shut up," he said, sticking out his tongue and giving it a brief tap. "But seeing as how even one of your dicks would kill someone and you've got talons, I find that I still have a lot of follow-up questions, such as 'how in god's name' and 'would it end up on the five o'clock news'." There were, after all, still people watching, and he was, after all, still trying to get away with murder. And while he'd settled on the reality that one of the guns under his skirt wouldn't bother the Krotazi, the jury was still out on the other ones.
