Oh, and they communicate through a sort of melodic chirping sound. They lack the vocal capabilities of speaking other languages, but that definitely doesn’t stop them from being able to understand them. They’re not animals.
A bit about Aria’s species because I can’t remember how much I’ve already said:
Their head tentacles are very prehensile and strong, and are able to support their weight. As well as these tentacles, the “pads” on the end of their arms house an abundance of smaller tentacles similar to that of an anemone. These hand tentacles are what they use for delicate manipulation. They can also sting at will.
They’re amphibious but they prefer the water, finding that being on land is too taxing. The sun tends to dry them out, but they secrete a coating of oil through the skin that keeps them hydrated and slick. A downside of this is that they can’t really wear much clothing because everything they touch just becomes wet and oily.
Due to this oil, and also because of the fact that they’re very flexible, they often don’t end up in situations they don’t want to be in. They can slip out of trouble pretty easily. Keeping hold of one is very hard to do, and this tends to make them feel more carefree and friendly. Actually almost too friendly, really.
There’s no real way to mince words; they like sex. A lot. And most of them are very shameless about it, leading them to be very exhibitionistic with their acts. The more the merrier, right? This is because many feel like whenever they’ve had enough, they can just slip away and go on with their lives. This isn’t to say that they don’t make lasting relationships, but they’re few and far between.
They’re stretchy and bendy, both inside and out.
