Entry 7 - Faux Pas


The Earth communication devices must all be connected as I had received a call from one specimen that called himself Baako Jang. Introducing himself as Liberty's acquaintance, he invited me out for lunch. I found myself in need of sustenance so I readily accepted.


It was an interesting encounter, though I felt as if he was not being entirely truthful. Showering me with compliments and giving me odd looks, he even placed his hand to his lips before releasing air over his palm towards me.


Such odd behaviour, I found my curiosity near unbearable and so decided to get to the bottom of this curious act. Attempting to meld my mind to his, I soon realised he was attempting a mating ritual. It would have been an honour to be included in a native display had I not felt another emotion surface. Guilt? I have had experience with such an emotion before myself, yet his feelings seemed to stem from his attraction and his mate's ignorance of such.


Another faux pas as no sooner had I released the meld did he stand and excuse himself. Apparently, humans have an innate ability to know something is amiss. He was polite in his departure, though his expression was more than quizzical. I was not able to acquire sustenance at that point in time. I shall be weary of using my melding powers in the future.
