4. Have fun.

[One mystery solved.]

Why do you prefer someone not of your own species?

[vrykolakas]

[Non-committal humming. Yeah, he does, but that's a different kettle of weird vampir fish.]

Did I say I was human?

[ c: ]

[notavirtue]

[Oh, you're one of those people.]

You did not specify anything. My original question stands.

[vrykolakas]

Common ground. Past experiences. Aesthetic preference. What influences anyone's taste?

[notavirtue]

The ability to procreate with a chosen partner is a common factor. [What was it with aliens wanting to bang other aliens all the time??]

[vrykolakas]

...I have never felt the paternal urge.

[notavirtue]

Not all species raise their own offspring. Where I am from, it used to be frowned upon to mate with an alien. Now it fairly common.

[He blamed the asari, and their ability to provide offspring with any species.]

[vrykolakas]

Yes, yes, and you're an accursed pedant, I know. [HANDWAVING]

Cross-sex is frowned upon in most places, back in my world. Though Armada, my city, is probably one of the most liberal. [There's a definite strain of pride in his voice.]

[notavirtue]

[Don't you get all sassy, or this date isn't lasting the full seven minutes.]

It is a pointless waste of time, no matter how accepting anyone is of it.

[vrykolakas]

Ah, now. And here I was thinking you were courting me.

Your fucking may be for procreation, my lightly-pitted friend, but in my world it is a different thing entirely. Perhaps it doesn't appeal to your kind, but to mine and to many others, it can be anything from a show of friendly good will to a religious ritual to an artisan product. Be wary of over-generalising.

[notavirtue]

You misunderstand. I am criticizing the practice between other species, not comparing it to that of my people.

[Protheans definitely had sex for pleasure. Yes, it's a double standard, and no, he doesn't care if he gets called on it.]

[vrykolakas]

Ah, well. At least I gave you credit for a better argument than you were truly employing.

[notavirtue]

I find very few species ever understand what I am telling them. [They actually laughed when he told them to jump out an airlock. As if he were joking!] Regardless, perhaps you will find someone suitable to your mating habits.

[vrykolakas]

Ah, you see; that's people for you.

Is that a good luck wish?

[notavirtue]

No. I am stating a possibility in your future that I have no investment in at all.

[vrykolakas]

[With a merry hiss, long forked tongue flickering out of his mouth:] Yes, of course. Exactly what I'd hoped you'd say.

[notavirtue]

['Must like tongue'. Right. He gives him a suspicious look.]

Why?

[vrykolakas]

Because, sick fuck that I am, I take a real joy in talking to humourless bastards.
