[Though she is by no means a mind reader, Chiana can see that there is much going on behind Nicholas' gaze and any number of unspoken comments. Her head tilts back the other way, smile slipping from her lips only to reappear a moment later almost unconsciously. The number of humans she has actively engaged with can be counted with two fingers, but this one is a curious one. There is a sternness to him that goes unspoken but for the way he carries himself, even seated and jotting down notes on the wall in his curious human script. Even picking that much up, the Nebari is hardly dissuaded from speaking to him.
Hell, after spending more than a few arns with the likes of Aeryn Sun, Nicholas' company was welcome and damn near gentile.
Still, sex was something Chiana understood and in this situation where everything she knew had been tilted sideways and everything familiar and close was gone? She went with what seemed to work among pretty much any male of any species.]
Doctor... [There is a beat. A mere microd where that defensive show of bravado slips. A slight widening of the eyes and a tremble of the lips as her smile slips again, only to be replaced by one warmer and softer than it had been.] Heh. Who'd'a thunk it, huh? A doctor. [Oh, the young Nebari knew doctors quite well. They'd promised her an inoculation before releasing she and her brother from Nebari Prime. An innoculation that had proven to be a contagion she and Nerfi had been wantonly spreading throughout the galaxy. Doctors had come up with the contagion. Doctors had come up with the cleansing and the collar she wore now.
No... Chiana's fearlessness was feigned before a great many things, but doctors were right at the top.
She laughs then, shifting in her crouch a bit as she tries her best to play it cool.]
Please tell me you're apping?!
