#or how cardassians apparently flirt by one-upping or being confrontational towards one another

[bumblingbabooshka]

I think aliens should have alien methods of showing affection which sometimes leads to misunderstandings interpersonally which is to say I think Tuvok should bite Neelix (affectionate) and they have to go to the EMH for immediate medical attention

#I just pictured Tuvok being overwhelmed by Neelix (affectionate) and expressing this by biting him since he is Tuvok's [Vulcan Hatedate] #And in my mind this relationship category satisfies the Vulcan violence urge (but in a controlled way) #Neelix: -chattering away happily- #Tuvok: -annoyed [affectionate]- ...........................................................................-BITES- #[Scream echoes across the entire ship] #also unrelated but I headcanon that Neelix's teeth are fucked up <3 I like fucked up teeth #Pros of Vulcan dating: Purring and Nuzzling / Cons of Vulcan dating: BITES YOU #I will try to think of Talaxian forms of affection....I love aliens and I like non-human affections #like how klingon women throw shit and get wild when they're flirting #or how cardassians apparently flirt by one-upping or being confrontational towards one another #or that head-bump thing ferengi do #the Vulcan hand touch of course...there should be more of that sort of thing~!! #Anyway....time for your rabies shot NeeNee v_v #after a long day of existential brooding with the polycule who wouldn't want to destress by biting your some guy?? #tuvok/neelix
