The planet's formal greeting appeared incredibly intimate to him. It was the type of touch almost exclusively shared by lovers on his home planet. The closest example he could refer them to was a kiss. But this was a moment for diplomacy, not squeamishness so he calmly…shook the stranger's hand.
I've slowed down on my posting again. Sometimes I really just can't make it because of things. And stuff. But I am making the effort today. I've posted many, many times over the last nine years about why it's a good idea to post more (if you can) when Hive prices are low. Even if rewards are lower in dollar value. I think people mostly understand by now.
Anyhow, if you'd like to write a 50 word Zapfic too, all the details are over here.
