				<div style="text-align: justify;">The first thing Maya was aware of was the hard slab under her. It was neither cold nor warm, but it was hard as if she was laid on metal in some kind of autopsy chamber. She took a deep breath, but there was no smell floating about. Something was off. The mining ship always had some kind of metal smell in the are that sometime stuck to her tongue as if she had been suckling on a penny.<br><br>Maya blinked and looked around her and for a brief moment, she thought that she was blind, somehow. Not because of blackness, but because of the opposite. The ceiling was so white and luminous that she couldn’t tell where it was. She was also surrounded by the whiteness but couldn’t tell how many paces she would be able to take before she touched a wall. The only thing that prevented her from believing in her blindness was the fact that she could see herself.<br><br>She groaned softly as she sat up on her bed. It was indeed of metal but it had a pinkish hue to it that was completely alien to her. It wasn’t paint or coating, the metal itself was a grayish kind of dull pink. She was naked under a whispy, light dress made of a fabric that she did not know. It was basically a large rectangle with a hole for her head in its center, the front and back held in place by a rope belt. Where in the name of god was she?<br><br>“Caperon, child.” A voice said in her mind and Maya jerked with surprise. “Don’t be afraid. I am your host, and you will be treated well if you hold your part of the bargain.”<br><br>“Bargain? What bargain? What’s going on? Why am I here? What happened to the ship?” She asked aloud and a being appeared before her. It was taller, humanoid in shape, but ethereal somehow. It was also too slender, its limb awkwardly long.<br><br>“Your ship has been caught in the tail of a comet. The hull was breached and you were losing oxygen.”<br><br>“Emergency procedures would have addressed that issue.” Maya protested, knowing that in case the cryo-sleep should have been interrupted.<br><br>“The hull was pierced severely, torn to shreds in some places. Only two of you survived. The belt around Devara damages ships often and we have taken upon us to terraform one of our moons, so that those of you who need oxygen can live a normal life.”<br><br>“How about those of us who want to go home?”<br><br>“We were never interested by intergalactic travel. We can terraform and maintain the moons, we can rescue the ships who get caught by the comet’s trail, but we cannot provide technology to return you home, I am sorry.”<br><br>It didn’t sound sorry, Maya thought to herself, but her heart was sinking. There would be no return home. There was nothing waiting for her there. Nothing but an empty bunk at the mining base, a fat paycheck and maybe a good lay if she was lucky.<br><br>“Who else survived?” Maya asked.<br><br>“I do not know. All I know is that there is another human on the moon, placed on a different continent because they are different than you.”<br><br>“Different?”<br><br>“You have so many questions… let me start by the beginning.”<br><br>Maya nodded her head and listened. She realized quickly that she was not listening with her ears, but with her mind. The gray thing in front of her was a Devaran. Devara was a planet surrounded by six moons, some were uninhabitable, but those that had a good base had been terraformed to accommodate the different species.&nbsp; Each moon had its people grouped together based on markers that made them of like-minded people, but also the means to give and take pleasure so that the body shapes were compatible at least to a degree.<br><br>The bargain was simple. She was to be given a home - a small bunk bedroom - to sleep, food as much as she wanted and all for free, as well as access to the island’s facilities but in exchange she had to provide food with the Devaran who was bonded to her: the one that was standing in front of her. Food, for them, was an energy that was released during extreme pleasure, such as an orgasm. The energy is transferred through the telepathic bond, and would allow Edara to grow stronger. Her last ‘provider’ as she called it, had been lazy and left her starving. Edara ensured Maya that she would be rewarded, that Edara had the means to get her a better place to live and better clothes, but first she wanted to see how Maya would do on the island.<br><br>Maya was shocked, but she agreed. She knew, somewhere inside, that it would mean to have sex with creatures that weren’t human and she was a bit freaked out by that. At the same time, she knew that there were other species out there that could give a human pleasure, she had almost given into her curiosity and given it a try herself once… Eldara felt her agreement to the bargain and in a blink, Maya found herself somewhere else, leaving her slightly nauseous.<br><br>The room was small, the bed was comfortable, and the view from her large window was breathtaking. It was a tropical paradise. The people that she saw in the streets woudl have put a rainbow to shame. Skin tones in hues of yellows, greens from kahki to lime, blues, purples, pinks, reds, browns, greys, whites… and that was without considering the colors of the hair. Some had tails, other had horns, some had two or three pairs of arms, or breasts for that matter. Maya had never seen so many different species. Scales, fur, soft skin… it was all overwhelming.<br><br>She found her way out and stopped at the door. She was petite both in height and build. With her short blond spiky hair and her large blue eyes, Maya had everything of a pixie, but pixies were a thing of Earth. To her opinion she was pretty, but normal, nothing to fuss about. She had modest curves that were proportional to the rest of her; enough to fill a man’s hand for sure, but she considered her breasts small compared to the female who had just passed in front of her with breasts as big as Maya’s head.&nbsp; She stood by the door, taking it all in and having not a clue where to start. Food perhaps? Yes… but where? And she had to give Eldara food, the Devaran had admitted being starved…<br><br></div>

				"Heeeeeeey~" a sudden voice trailed from down the street. It was a lighter yet sort of raspy or womanly voice, albeit one with rather improper manner it seemed as it yelled down the road, that came from a figure far off from Maya's house. A sharp eye and perhaps a squint could make out that the figure was sprinting rather animatedly and rather fast for a person. As it drew closer it could also be seen that it was in fact a woman, she wore clothing that was not too spectacular but still looked alien, as if the fabrics used were not of Earth. She wore shorts that went down to just past her knees and were baggy, they were however tight at the waist and the legs making the ends of them bulge out; they were made of an odd, smooth looking black material giving them an almost cartoonish look due to how light and smooth the fabric seemed. Her top was skin tight and a dark red in color; it covered her torso up to around her neck and the sleeves went down passed her elbows while over this she wore a loose, open, blue vest with a collar, seemingly made out of a thicker material.<br><br>The woman suddenly in her sprint took a huge leap, she nearly flew from down the road and landed at the front of Maya's home, skidding on bare feet though seemingly not at all hurt by the friction. Now that she appeared before the human, the rest of her features could be seen clearly; she was a taller girl with a rather slender build, thin boned to a degree that on Earth would look unhealthy but for someone who was so lithe she sure as hell seemed fast, strong too with that jump. Her hair was nearly as much of a spectacle as her herself, deep purple in color and spiky, unkempt, with uneven bangs and strands on either side of her face that draped down passed her neck complete with a wild mane of hair. It spiked upwards, opposite her bangs, and back as the locks continued -- it reached as long as her mid back, flowing back and down in a messy fashion. She had pale white skin and bright gold eyes that looked the girl up and down before a smile stretched her thin lips in a rather attractive and attracted fashion, it seemed that despite her oddly thin physique, she was a rather sultry girl. <br><br>"Hey!" Her voice was chipper and high, retaining that slight natural rasp as she spoke. "Name's Sarai Solari, I'm your official guide!" she exclaimed with a suddenly stiff salute before she broke the formalities with a soft giggle. "I am a guide sent to greet all newcomers, show them around, get them laid, all that!" Sarai smiled happily, rather blunt in her speech and seemingly giddy at that. <br><br>Bare feet padded the ground gently as she skipped over to Maya with a sly grin, her body, now that she was closer was quite the sight. Despite her thin frame, her curves were present and they culminated in a modest C-cup chest that even clothed just had to be incredibly perky and her ass was plump yet compact and firmly round. "First thing's first, I don't know your actual language, the reason you can understand me right now is because the Devaran do this thing with our minds, making pretty much every language here able to be understood by the brain to a good enough extent. Everyone can still speak in our own languages and you'd hear it as such if an individual felt like it, Tardondin" explained the woman, her last word oddly accented and spoke, directed at Maya as if she were calling her this word, this 'Tardondin' as an example of the ability to retain one's language separately from their speech that could be understood. <br><br>Sarai suddenly gripped Maya's wrist with a strangely firm grip but a gentle one all the same, with soft hands covered in fingerless brown gloves that felt as if they couldn't hurt her if she tried. "What's your name?" she asked, but barely gave time to reply as she started pulling her with her stride, heading towards the city it seemed, "let's get you fulfilling your end aye? It always pays off to first and foremost prove you'll keep your bargain with the Devaran, there are some incredible benefits to it so lets get started!" it very much seemed as if this girl was a fast talker.<br><br>She began leading her into town, walking past a plethora of people of many races, some even that would not have been known to humans all just casually walking through the streets, living together with no obvious cultural barriers. In fact, as they progressed it seemed as if the spectrum didn't end at species' but everything seemed to be influenced by many different cultures from the utopian to the downright weird.<br><br>The girl seemed to go on non stop but finally as they walked down the street, Sarai looked back at Maya and smiled brightly. "Any questions?" she asked.

				<div style="text-align: justify;">Maya was still taking everything in, completely oblivious to the creature that was coming toward her at a sprint. Her eyes had passed over her like they had over everything else; taking it all in but truly registering very few of them. Maya was in shock. The difference between what she expected to find - not that she had had much time to prepare herself to it all - and what was there in front of her was enough to send her mind reeling. Some species were obviously male and female; some even had the usual brighter coloring in the male than the female, which proved that having the male try to charm and please the female wasn’t just an Earth thing.<br><br>Maya moved away from the overly enthusiastic being that had jumped toward her. It was a pure reflex, of course, not knowing if she should trust that no one would seek to do her arm on this moon, or if there were species that were more aggressive than others. “Ah… hi.” Maya said and she cocked an eyebrow at the outburst of energy from the strange creature. “Let’s hold on the getting laid right now, alright? I need to wrap my head around a few things.” Maya said before being pulled along by Sarai. Maya listened as she followed along, nodding her head whenever needed. The language thing answered a question she didn’t even have yet.<br><br>“I’m Maya.” The human said and she pulled her arm out of the grip, not appreciating being dragged around at all before she was even ready to take a step away from the safety of her own place. “Okay, hold onto your horses, lady.” Maya finally said, and her tone was a bit stiff because uncomfortable, but not at all rude. “Believe it or not, right now getting laid isn’t on my mind. I’m hungry, I’m confused, and I still need to wrap my head around having sex with something that doesn’t look like the male version of me, alright? So can we down-shift a gear or two, and give me a moment to get used to my new crowd before I go hunting for a male and give my Devaran her quota? We could grab a bite somewhere, or something.”<br><br></div>

				Sarai innocently looked back at Maya questioningly when she pulled away and began ranting right back at the alien girl that looked mostly human. "Alright, alright" she said with a shameless chuckle, raising a brow at the bit about having sex with something that looked like a male version of her. "Do... All humans look alike?" she asked curiously, letting Maya finish off her requests and she nodded, "okay we can go eat, but we can't hold off too long aye?" she said as she pointed another direction and started to head that way. <br><br>"Anyway, it's nice to meet you, Maya. Human, right? I've never met one before. I'm a Teridian, though not many people know what that is" Sarai rambled a bit with a chuckle, "over here is a pretty good place" she told her, pointing to a smaller building at the end of the road. It was not too bad looking of a place, the style completely foreign to anything someone would find on Earth but the closest familiar thing it could be called would be modern. Sarai led Maya to a circular table, a little less forcefully than she had before and she scooted into the booth-like seating of the place, inviting Maya to sit with her.<br><br>"Okay, I'm not one of the best guides there is for nothing~" she chimed, seeming as if that title was self appointed, "I can adapt, so lets take it slow. I'll start off by answering whatever it is you need to wrap your head around" she spoke, leaning casually yet interestedly on her hand showing that she was all ears to the new girl she was showing around a bit quickly so far.

				<div style="text-align: justify;">“I suppose it’s the same with every races, more or less? We have different skin tones, hair color and texture, eye color. Our features all differ a little but the basics and proportions are more or less the same.” Maya said to answer the question. She could have gone on stupid random facts, like how the length of a human feet was exactly the same than the one between the inside of the elbow and the wrist. How no one would ever be able to lick their elbow… That sort of crap that her brain had picked up on over the years that was totally useless.<br><br>Maya simply nodded to Sarai’s assessment that not many people new about her race. Maya surely didn’t, but couldn’t help to wonder how well she represented her people. Where they all so energetic? It seemed to Maya that Sarai was a bit of a firecracker, but it didn’t bother her. At the moment, Maya was a bit numb with shock and her mind was still reeling at the fact that she was now some kind of slave - although living in outstanding conditions from what she could see - to provide food through sexual activities. The Devaran had a certain respect for freedom. They could have devised much harsher ways to coerced sexual pleasure out of their captives.<br><br>Maya sat at the table comfortably, taking a good look around and at the people who were there either working or eating, to register the differences. “Would you tell me a bit about the people who live here? You know, anything particular I should or should not do? I wouldn’t want to offend anyone due to the fact that I know nothing about their species… I’ve seen one that is familiar to me so far, is an Ablenian (https://elliquiy.com/wiki/Caperon#Ablenians), and as far as I know they are not the mingling type.” Though that Ablenian was with someone that did not share his reddish skin hue, which indicated that he did mingle.</div>

				The lithe girl shrugged at Maya's question but nodded as Sarai listened to the explanation to answer her question. She seemed interested as she listened to the human's explanation, "it's always interesting to hear about a species with different sexes, our people don't really have that. I guess we can vary in style a little more than what I've seen of other species' but we don't have two or more genders" she replied to Maya with a smile, Sarai's eyes inspecting Maya though more in a curious way than a sexualizing glare.<br><br>"Well it's not surprising" explained the alien, "Devaran seem to like the idea of uniqueness and rarity, I guess they suppose that without the allure of new and exotic conquests that their food supply would be lesser" Sarai mused, "heck, some just like to collect" she added, noting that some Devaran might have some individual desires when creating their sustenance. <br><br>Sarai went on through all that Maya asked and spoke of, "sometimes the culture just sets in you know, sometimes even those like that Ablenian will begin to intermingle despite their nature" miss Solari explained to the human woman. "As for the people here specifically, this place is sort of a beginners continent, a small island of a continent all in all" she stopped a rather odd looking server, he was a bit shorter than Maya, skin bright red in color, and a lanky body. His head was rather sharp looking with a pointed chin and high cheekbones, hair spiked up naturally from his head in thick strands and his ears were pointed. Probably the oddest thing about this alien was that he had no mouth as well as fingers that ended in pointed yet soft looking tips, five in all. Sarai ordered a fillet of... Something, the word fillet came through translation but the second word came out in a sound that would not entirely be pronounceable by any human language. The waiter nodded and left the table and at that very moment, Sarai leaned in.<br><br>"Ooh~ How about him for a first?" she chimed, clearly talking about sex, "he's a Fladerin, they are sorta similar in anatomy and pretty well endowed. See how he doesn't have a mouth? Well the ends of his fingers act like tongues and they absorb nutrients through them, that's how they eat but what matters is that his fingers are like tongues!" Sarai giggled, "do you know how fantastic that feels?" she grinned as she added that last bit, interrupted from her explanation, "think about it" she told her quickly.<br><br>Sarai then continued, as if she felt a need to finish her statement, "anyway, the Devaran put people in different areas of Caperon who are sort of like minded" she answered, "it's hard to do no doubt as most sentient species' are not so predictable but they make do. This place is basically one of the few where they put new citizens in to sort of analyze their personalities to be moved around when they move up in society" Sarai explained. "Though they do try to keep apart peoples who would just not get along. This continent in particular is used for the more casual and relaxed races, more timid or kind in nature. Humans must be really prude huh, Tardondin?" she asked her with a smile, using that word again to describe Maya it seemed.

				<div style="text-align: justify;">Maya looked at what was offered, not familiar with the writings at all but somehow able to understand what was written on the wall. Most of the food was completely unknown to her, but again she felt a familiarity to some of them. When the server came to them, she asked for a salad with a grilled fish that she knew nothing about. She had to try new things if she wanted to adapt and food was always something she was adventurous about. Sex was a bit less so. She had not even paid mind to the humanoid’s hands until Sarai brought it up.<br><br>“He’s working, and no mouth means no kissing. I like kissing. Besides, I thought I had been clear that ‘my first’ was going to have to wait for a bit.” Maya said and she was beginning to think that exploring the island on her own rather than with a pushy guide might be better. Maya was quite willing to provide for the Devaran that was waiting on her for sustenance, but having someone else try to pick a partner for her, or constantly bringing it back to the ‘let’s get you to fuck’ topic was actually turning her off pretty efficiently.<br><br>“It’s probably a very casual thing for you, but I just got here and I still have all those human ways very much present, you know: need to feel desire, to be turned on. Up until before I went to sleep, these desires were limited to humans like me. So everyone here is a bit weird to me and right now, weird doesn’t turn me on.” Maya explained and sighed. Finding the other human, and hoping he was male, was not going to happen over night. Maybe she wasn’t made to fit in here. She wasn’t venting when she spoke, but trying to make Sarai understand that if this kind of guidance made her one of the best on the island, it was not working for her at all.<br><br>Maya listened to the information regarding the way Caperon was structured. Why wasn’t the other human with her then? Was he really so different than her? Maybe if he was one of the security details? One of the mercenary paid to keep the mining area clear of hostiles? She was a pilot, so her level of aggressiveness was rather low compared to these guys. Being called prude was also not helping to get Sarai on Maya’s good side. Maya considered the door, and if it weren’t for the fact that she was hungry and that she needed food, she would have ditched that ‘guide’. Maybe she was the best when it came to know the lay of the land, but as far as the more psychological side of it all, Maya decided that it could definitely improve. “What does… ‘Tardondin’ means?”</div>

				Sarai nodded when the waiter walked away and she gave a sympathetic, apologetic look yet one that looked as if Maya had failed to understand her meaning -- the kind of look one gives non-condescendingly when they think something is cute in it's actions. "I know I know, for one I meant later when he wasn't, two I meant later when you're ready y'know?" it seemed that Sarai really did get it, but her bubbly and forward attitude was mixing up communication to say the least. "Though it helps to know you like kissing" she added coyly with a smirk. <br><br>"I didn't mean to offend" the woman then said apologetically in response to Maya's next statements, "look, then how about you tell me what <em>does</em> turn you on - not for now but for later so I can better help, okay?" she smiled to the girl, hoping that holding back a bit, as odd as it felt to do so, would help the human adjust a little better. "Along the way you ask me any questions you need, or want, to know and I'll answer them" she told her.<br><br>It was then that Maya did ask her next question and it was one that made Sarai grin slyly. "Well it means...." Sarai paused for a moment and poked at her chin as if thinking, "how to put it..." she mused aloud, "well, in a word it means 'beautiful', but it's so much bigger than what your word states" she smiled kindly at Maya. "It's kind of like 'beautiful', 'lovely', 'stunning', uhh... That kind of stuff, but multiplied many times over. It's sort of a special word" she explained with a giggle, her words getting slowly back to her faster pace of speaking.<br><br>The waiter came back moments later. He set down a plate in front of Sarai that despite it's appearance, smelled fantastic. He placed Maya's ordered dishes in front of her and her fish was an incredible sight; it looked like perfection, it was cut even, looked like marble, and was juicy but not too much so. The scent was recognizable as fish but it was not at all too present and her salad, despite it's rather odd coloring and ingredients, looked crisp and fresh. The waiter gave the two of them each a water before taking his leave on through the slightly busy restaurant.

				<div style="text-align: justify;">Maya head the question and bit on her tongue. She opened her mouth to reply, took a deep breath and changed her mind. The creature sitting across the table from her had ignored her three previous attempt, she’d ignore the fourth attempt to get off the subject of sex. Maya knew she’d have to get down to business sooner rather than later. Her Devaran needed the food, she claimed to have been starving and Maya didn’t want to be responsible for anyone’s death.<br><br>She had never been particularly difficult when it came to having sex. She wasn’t overly hooked up onto the principle that one must have feelings to feel desire. When she was on board of a ship, the male population was small, the choice was narrow. While she was on land or in a space port, she didn’t have time to make friends either. So… Once she would be settled she knew it wouldn’t be a problem. She just had to wrap her head around the fact that it wouldn’t be with a human. Right now, though, she just wanted to get settled and familiar with the people around them.<br><br>Maya let the question of what would turn her on slide, as she focused on the colorful food that was delivered before her. Strange-colored leaf, appetizing fish, a strange greyish bread. She wondered if anything here was toxic to her, but she figured that if it was the case, the Devaran would take care of the poisoning like they had the wounds she had had from the ship wreck. Taking what could pass for a fork with two prongs and a short knife, Maya started to work her way around the plate. She was starving. <br><br>The answer to the strange word that Sarai had used to address her made her raise a brow. A term of endearment that had a reference to her beauty? That was sweet but so unexpected that Maya had no idea how to answer it. “Ah, thanks.” She said, and then tried a sincere smile. At least she wasn’t calling her a retard or a prude, again. “I’ve asked you for information already, I asked if you would tell me a bit about the people.” Maya pointed out and her question had been mostly ignored. She had not taken offense; Sarai appeared to be thinking about as fast as she spoke, so it was easy to overlook stuff.</div>

				Sarai seemed like a decently oblivious person, she wore her heart on her sleeve and she saw what people presented so it appeared that subtleties were lost on the girl. She did at least take the lack of an answer to her question of turn ons as a lack of interest in the subject even if she didn't guess at the true extent of her offense. <br><br>"Well it depends where you are" the woman answered promptly to Maya's curiosity about the people, "around here you find a lot of types as this is one of the few 'beginner islands' as I put it earlier" she told the human woman, realizing she had started to answer her question earlier and got this far before getting distracted. "Even the Devaran can't see the future, so they start people off here on any of these large islands" explained the woman. "I believe you were told about how you could move up in the world here, do your job more and your quality of life enhances" Sarai reiterated anyway, "usually when you do, or at least when you do when your personality has been more established, you're moved to one of the larger continents to a country of your style. Of course not everyone is the same, that's just boring, but you may find that you'll get along a lot more with the company kept" she told Maya.<br><br>"As you can probably guess, the people are largely varied, I mean we do have many, many species here on the planet so their personalities differ greatly but as you can possible imagine, because of the sexual openness of this world, they are all for the most part peaceful" Sarai went on. As she said this last line though, she threw her hands up in an innocently defensive stance, "I promise I'm not trying to bring the subject back to sex!" she defended a little awkwardly, but at least it seemed she was trying.<br><br>Sarai leaned on her hand as she began to eat slowly, seemingly satisfied with the meal. "Anyway" she continued, "what else would you like to know?" she asked surprisingly politely.

				<div style="text-align: justify;">Maya tasted the salad and decided that while it wasn’t her favorite thing in the world - what could beat a caramel-filled chocolate bite, or a chocolate truffle, really - it was a quite decent meal, something she would eat again whenever the occasion would present itself. It was healthy food, and it made her wonder if there would be a burger with some bacon, and cheese with a helping of greasy fries… Suddenly her fish and salad seemed a little bland, but she was amused by her own antics. Hey, if there wasn’t anywhere serving some bacon cheeseburger, she’d introduce something similar in one of these small food joints.<br><br>“I think knowing about here is what matters at the moment. When I’m moved out to another island, I’ll already have a feel of how things work here and I won’t be as anxious about insulting someone due to my ignorance.” Maya prepared a bite on the back of her fork as she spoke and glanced toward the street where people walked out and about. Basically, she understood how selection worked and she was fine with it. She had understood when Sarai had explained it first, it was rather obvious actually. She was more concerned about cultural stuff. What if she went up to a hunk to strike a conversation, and he was from a species where women are supposed to wait after men to do the first move? Or…<br><br>“I don’t mind talking about sex, I do mind talking about me having sex with any… anyone. I’m not in the right frame of mind for that at the moment.” Maya said, and had almost used the word “anything”. None of the people living on the island were things, and she was well aware of it. “I guess the goal of my question is more to know the particularities of the people. You don’t have to tell me everything about them right here, I’m aware we could end up sitting here for hours, of not days. I need to know stuff like… I don’t know… Is there a race out there that’s very dominant? I’m not the submissive kind much. The more I’m being pushed, the more I push back. I guess you know that by now.” Maya said with a coy smile that turned into a smirk. “Stuff like the server’s hands, is stuff I want to know. What makes certain people different from others? What’s special about your people?” The confusion was clearing up, she realized, and she could finally voice what she needed to know to push the fog further away.</div>

				Sarai finished up her own meal pretty quick, both because she was hungry and she did want to spend her effort trying to better understand Maya and help her better understand the world here as was her job. She did understand what Maya meant, but she did feel it necessary to run back through the obvious to get to her next questions.<br><br>"I know that" Sarai nodded non-defensively, "but my point is that because of this, you might find this place to be a bit more diverse you see" she began to explain. Maya asked the question for her, before she could get to that particular answer which helped her get to the point, "perfect example" she said with a smile, "you might find people here who are more dominant, more submissive, but races who are biologically known to be more dominant or more submissive or just have qualities that clash with others, that's why we use many of the islands for starting communities" Sarai told Maya, "so that races with matching traits can stay together and so that things like that, you running into a particularly dominant race that would clash with maybe your more submissive race, if that were the case that is with Humans, wouldn't happen" explained Sarai.<br><br>"Hmm... Yeah we would go for hours if I tried explaining a bunch of species' to you, maybe I can explain them to you as they come along?" Sarai asked, "for instance, you'd like to know what makes my race special?" She smiled, flattered by the interest, "well as you can see from me, our biology is close to yours, we have many different skin tones and hair colors in our race than most I've seen but we don't have two genders" the alien explained. "See, we have both sets of basic genitalia that most races split between two or more genders, excluding races with further different genders of course" the woman revealed about herself.

				<div style="text-align: justify;">Maya ate her salad, listening to Sarai. She was a slow eater and liked to take her time to taste things, especially when it was new things, so that she would grow familiar with the layers of flavors. It tasted odd, unfamiliar, and a blend of flavor she wouldn’t have thought to put together but it worked well and she was pleased with the meal. Besides the weather was quite comfortable and would make it easy for her to live here. It was so much sunnier and warmer than anywhere she had been while on board of a spacecraft. She missed home though, her real home not the large mining vessel she had been on board of for the last few months or had it been over a year? It had, definitely had.<br><br>Hearing Maya gave her a series of vague possibilities with no distinct information was getting really frustrating. Maya felt that she was giving her supposed guide all the pointers of what she wanted and needed to know to feel comfortable in this place, and Sarai was dodging each and every single one of them, never answering with whatever Maya wanted to know. The thought occurred to her that perhaps she had been too trusting from the get go. What if Sarai was a self-appointed guide? What if Sarai’s intentions weren’t to guide her at all but to hit on her and keep Maya’s attention focused on her instead? <br><br>As if to prove Maya right, Sarai did answer one question the way Maya wanted it to be answered and it was a question about her own species. Both sets of genitals. Maya wasn’t sure how to feel about that. She had never really considered herself more than vaguely curious about being with another woman. It could change here, somewhere down the road when sex with a male would begin to feel like a routine thing. Other genders? Why would races need other genders? All it took for a species to reproduce was two, right? It was really a matter of luck to get pregnant with two members of a species involved - in the case of humans anyway - what would it be to have to have three, four or five members of the same species for it to procreate?<br><br>Thought pushed aside, Maya nodded her head. Considering how helpful Sarai had been so far, Maya was growing more and more certain that she would end up asking Sarai to leave her alone. If she was not about to help get a good grasp on how not to insult or offend one of the races out there, Maya had&nbsp; the intention to go and find out on her own.<br></div>

				It was easy for even Sarai to sense Maya's frustration at this point, she could tell her more direct answer was appreciated but clearly she was still left wanting. The lithe woman took a sigh and shook her head, "look, Tardondin, your question is a bit vague" she admitted, "I'd like to help out but like I said we could literally be here for hours to discuss every race and culture" explained the alien woman. Setting her fork down onto her plate as she was finished, Sarai put a finger to her chin in thought and nodded gently to herself as if she had gotten an idea. <br><br>"Here, lets do this then" Sarai started, looking back into Maya's eyes, "why don't you point out a specific race you happen to be curious about, anyone here at all, and I'll tell you all I know about that one" the girl proposed. "This way I'm not taking shots in the dark, covering peoples that you may already be familiar with, and over all rambling like I tend to do~" Sarai admitted with a coy smile and a giggle. "When you're done we can walk around a bit and I'll show you some more places, we can talk on the way and ask me anything you need" she reminded Maya once again. It was clear at that very moment that Sarai could in fact be the guide she hyped herself up to be, but clearly her thought process was a bit different and much like she needed to answer Maya's questions in a way she could understand, she had to be asked with a certain specificity or her wandering mind very well could send her off on a tangent.<br><br>"Go on, point to someone and tell me what you want to know about their species and culture" Sarai proposed as if ready to take up the challenge.
