I let go of Stort's nose, causing her to retreat, holding her nose in her hands.
"Why did you bite me?"
"Was that not a lead up to a kiss?"
"Wha what?"
"You grabbed my shoulders and lean your face in towards me. From what I've read, that is typically how a kiss starts."
"Where did you learn that?!"
"From Bea's books."
She turns her head, "I.. I need to discuss what kind of things she's teaching you." she mutters. "And for your kind, that is not what a kiss is."
"Oh. How does my kind kiss?"
Her skin turns a darker shade, "You should probably ask Beatrice and Hoor that," she grins, "they would know better than I would."
"Incidentally," She looks back at me as I ask, "What gender are you?"
She blinks, silent for a moment before releasing bubbled giggles from her gills, "Ah yes, I forget that it's different for land races."
"Nereyas do not have male or female like your kind does. We are neither until we find a mate. At that point, the lead turns female while the partner turns male and stay that way for the rest of their life."
"And you do not have a gender?"
"No. I am neither male nor female at the moment."
