Ajaa!
So I dug up my old post on Ajaa from ages ago and apparently it was somehow posted to a saved URL I have so I'm tossing it here so I have it
(Plus it's been a while since I've screamed about him!)
Ajaa (Na Rova) is my angaran OC for those who haven't already been around for all my previous screaming
He's an agricultural scientist stationed on Aya who's just doing his best in all the chaos
He's originally from a small research daar on Havarl, though when he was 10y/o the kett attacked and destroyed everything there leaving him orphaned. During the attack he was also severely injured, lacerations to his lower back/spine have left him with nerve damage, difficulty with running and walking, and a general reduction in movement and sensation in his lower body. In addition, his daar was researching biochemical weapons (mostly plant-based neurotoxins for gas) to fight the kett and a leak in a tank caused Ajaa to be exposed to it, which has lead to general nerve damage (seizures) and some motor degeneration mostly with his hands (shakiness).
Much less visible is the ptsd the attack caused. Sudden loud sounds, gunfire, and shuttles/ships make him very nervous and frantic, and can lead to panic attacks.
Ajaa is a very upbeat person who loves to meet new people and experience life. He has three best friends who work in the same lab as him (Alya, Sivus, and Paalka) and he's a hopeless romantic with a subconscious tendency to sabotage his relationships out of fear that he's going to lose everyone around him to the kett again.
He has a special interest in plants. Both of his parents were involved in research in plants on Havarl, though while his parents were involved with making weapons, the team Ajaa is on is working with ways to raise crop yields as the angara population rises after the defeat of the kett and more medicinal uses for common plants.

More screaming about Ajaa
Ajaa cannot write with pens/pencils/anything do to the nerve damage, his hands shake too much. It also makes typing very slow and difficult to the point where it's really not possible for him to type efficiently enough.
Instead all of his electronics have voice to text inputs when applicable.
He's tried learning to knit and crochet from Julie, and while he understands how to make the stitches it's just not possible to actually do it with how shaky his hands are. He still likes to be involved in the process and will sit next to Julie on the couch and unwind the yarn while she works on something or he'll read the pattern to her and they make things together like that

Angara and underwear
Angara don't have underpants.
Some people will wear an under suit under their clothes for insulation if they live on Voeld, or as extra padding under their armor for comfort, but there's no underwear.
Jaal is fascinated by Ryder's underwear, not in a sexual way, but genuinely amazed by the tiny pants under Ryder's normal pants.
And for those of you who know my angaran OC Ajaa, he has the same fascination with Julie's panties. He thinks they're pretty. Julie mostly wears lacey boyshorts and Ajaa thinks they're cute (though he doesn't really grasp the difference between panties and wearing two layers of pants).
Julie likes the heat, Ajaa likes the cold, the apartment isn't a comfortable temperature for either of them. Julie wears sweatpants and a hoodie all the time, Ajaa just overheats in his normal clothes (pretty much all angaran clothes involves long pants and sleeves). Eventually he gets some human t-shirts with the neck cut to accommodate his cowl (and finally feels comfortable enough to be shirtless) but he thinks the type of underwear Julie wears looks comfortable. They have to find boyshorts in angara size for him. They also end up with at least one pair of matching panties.

Ajaa's got a big thing with foods.
Angara are herbivores (in my canon) and while Ajaa doesn't find anything odd about Milky Way species eating meat, he doesn't like the idea of eating eggs at all.
Julie has explained to him many times that chicken eggs that people eat are unfertilized (typically) but Ajaa is having none of it.
Julie doesn't have the heart to tell him how many human foods (mostly sweets) he likes have eggs in them

Ajaa is ambidextrous.
Before the kett attack he was right handed, but when he was relearning how to do everything he spent time learning to do things with his left hand too as a way to pass time in the hospital

Since it's 10:30 and I'm starting to feel too sleepy to work on chapter 10 of GA I'm just going to drop a random Ajaa fact because my train of thought is still on Ajaa and Julie.
Ajaa has a great butt and thighs. He can't really bend down well because of his injuries so instead he keeps his back straight up and does a squat to reach down to get anything. Because of that (he's constantly reaching down at work to get things) he's got some nice thighs and a round backside

Galaxies Apart Chapter 9!
Master post of all the chapters
Chapter 9: A New Home
Julie waved to the Resistance soldier by the freight lift on her way down to the labs to meet Ajaa for lunch. The soldier gave a nod as Julie boarded the elevator down to the planet floor. Ajaa had been emphatic about Julie being there on time right when his lunch began, though that was pretty typical for him.  He had assured her that morning that he had everything covered for lunch and for her not to worry about bring anything with her. He liked things to run smoothly, be on time, and be organized.
The elevator lurched to a sudden stop as it reached the ground and the doors scraped open into the storage bay that led out to all the science buildings. Several of the workers unloading cargo smiled or waved as she passed and she smiled back. Aya was friendly, or at least it was getting to be.
The agricultural lab was one of the last buildings down the path, a spacious single floored building surrounded by farmland that had become familiar to Julie in the last month. It was unlocked as usual and the comforting hum of lab equipment filled the air as she stepped into the lab.
“Thank the stars you’re finally here” grumbled Sivus, “Ajaa has been distracted all day and I’m pretty sure that he’s about to self destruct from anticipation”.
“Come now, be patient. He’s just excited that it’s been a month already” Paalka cut in, “Or do you not remember what it’s like to first fall for someone.I remember how you were right when we first got together” he smiled.
Sivus rolled his eyes but cracked a smile, “He’s in the side room as always, still working with those climbing stars”.
“Thanks” she nodded back. She knocked on the side door and opened it up, “Ajaa?” she called out.
“Julie!” Ajaa barreled towards her from across the room and swept her up into a hug, “Finally you’re here!”
“I’m here on time.”
“I know, I’ve just been a little excited” he was absolutely beaming in the dim light of the climbing stars.
“Yeah, I know. I think you’re driving Sivus a little crazy though.”
He laughed, it was rich and warm and Julie could feel the vibrations of it throughout herself as Ajaa still held her in the hug, “Come on my dear, I have something I want to show you”. He quickly released Julie and scooped up a bag before making his way back out into the main room, “See you tomorrow!” he called out to the others as they left the lab.
“Tomorrow? You’re not going back after lunch?” Julie asked.
“I took the rest of the day off, I wanted to do something special since it’s been a month” he said.
“An Ayan month” Julie added, “It was a month to me almost two weeks ago”.
“Mmm, but that’s Galactic Standard Time and we’re on Aya, so it’s only been a month today. And Galactic Standard hardly applies since it’s technically Galactic Standard of the Milky Way and now you’re in Andromeda”.
“Alrighty then. So where are we going?” she asked as Ajaa guided her off the path from the lab and into the forest.
“It’s a surprise, I thought we could have a little picnic”.
She let Ajaa guide her through the dense underbrush as he fussed over making sure that she did not trip over anything, though she was much more worried over him tripping over something.
“Just a little bit further” he said. They walked hand-in-hand for a while though Ajaa seemed a bit too excited and caught up in everything to make conversation.
“So I take it we’re not going to the clearing?” she asked.
“Not this time, but I think you’ll like this place just as much”.
Julie loved the clearing. They had visited it a few more times after the first time Ajaa had brought her there, though they had been a lot more careful subsequent times so that they would not have to call Sivus and Paalka down for help.
“Alright, close your eyes and I’ll guide you the rest of the way” he instructed her.
She let him guide her with careful steps the rest of the way until she felt the ground even out under her feet.
“Ok, open your eyes” he said.
It was another glade, but much smaller than the clearing. Large trees around the edges bathed everything in dancing shadows and there was a creek that trickled down a small fall into a reflection pool on the opposite side of where they entered.
“It's beautiful” she gasped.
“I thought it would be a nice spot for a picnic. I've been waiting for a special occasion to bring you here and I figured that making it a month without driving you crazy was a pretty good reason”. He was smiling and confident enough to joke, less nervous about being together now, which was a nice change for sure.
Julie wrapped her arms around his neck and pulled him down into a kiss. She felt the soft buzz of electricity on her lips as she pulled away, “I know you're joking, but I hope you really do know I don't think you're tedious or handful or anything”.
“I think I've figure that out” he said and kissed her back.
She closed her eyes and leaned up into the kiss. The feeling of newness had still not worn off for her, the rush and butterflies every kiss, still learning about Ajaa and the angara, all the pleasant surprises that came with any new relationship.
Ajaa pulled away and busied himself with the bag he brought, digging around until he found a large blanket and spread it out on the ground for them to sit on. “I hope everything is alright, I tried to find things we’d both like and I'm sure how I did, but I brought some back ups just in case”.
“I'm sure it'll just fine” she reassured him. He was always fussing over her, worrying if she was too cold while she was at his place, making sure she was always comfortable, anything he could think of really, though he managed to never be overbearing.
He started unpacking what he brought, all sorts of things wrapped in paper or stored in boxes along with all sorts of fruits. “So I did some cooking too, and I'd like to think I'm a fairly good cook though humans seem to have a different sense of taste so I guess we’ll find out”.
“Angaran or human cooking?”
“Oh stars, angaran cooking! I don't think I'm brave enough to tackle human cooking for now, but I did get a hold of some stuff I think you'll be interested in”.
Julie sat down next to him and leaned on his shoulder. She had gotten used to Ajaa’s need for constant physical contact over the last few weeks and now she felt a bit off without contact when he was around too.
The first thing he unwrapped looked like a few pieces of some sort of flat bread, followed by several containers of roasted vegetables and what might have been a type of beans, “According to Initiative data nothing here should be dangerous for you to eat, and I cleared it with your records to make sure you didn't have any allergies either. Oh,” he paused and looked over at Julie as his train of thought caught up with him, “That's not too weird or invasive, is it?”
There was a learning curve between humans and angara for sure. It had taken a bit, but it finally had sunk in for Ajaa that humans had more boundaries than angara did.
“A bit much, but not over the top. But I do appreciate that lunch won't kill me though” she kissed his cowl to assure him that it was alright, “So what all do we have?”
Ajaa went over everything. The flatbread was exactly what it seemed and was called tahaan , made from something called tahaa predictably . The vegetables were a mix of a few root vegetables, along with what Julie could only imagine what Ajaa was trying to explain to be a gourd, and various colorful chopped veggies. There was something similar to soybeans that Ajaa explained was staple protein for the angara, and a spread made from a different sort of bean that was for the flatbread.
“Quite a bit going on here” she noted as she took it all in”.
“Just wanted to make sure you got the full experience of angaran foods” he smiled back.
Julie watched as Ajaa ripped of a piece of the flatbread and dipped it into the spread and then reached into the containers to pile the vegetables on to it.  She followed suit and began putting a bit of everything onto her bread too.
Ajaa was watching her closely, waiting for affirmation that everything was good as she took a bite. The flatbread was almost sweet, but it was balanced out by the bitterness of some of the vegetables and there was a blend of familiar and new flavors.
“It’s good” she assured him.
A smile crept across his face as he leaned over to hug her, “Good, I wanted to make everything was perfect”.
The two continued their meal, Ajaa occasionally speaking up to talk about the different foods or angaran cooking. It was nice. Adjusting to life on in Andromeda and on Aya had not been easy, though having Ajaa and his friends sure did make everything a little easier, and now sitting there with Ajaa doing something as sweet and normal as having a picnic really did make Julie feel like she belonged there.
“I have two more surprises” Ajaa chimed up with a smile as they finished eating, “Close your eyes”.
“Should I be worried?” she joked a n d compiled. She heard him rustling around in the bag he brought.
“Open your mouth”.
She felt something graze her lips and tongue, something rough but familiar as she bit down on whatever Ajaa was excited to show her, “It’s a strawberry” she smiled, “How in the world did you get a hold of strawberries?” she asked and opened her eyes to see the little box of a few strawberries in his hands.
“You know how I’ve been sharing research data with the Nexus agricultural team? Well I’ve built of a bit of a rapport with them so when I mentioned that I was trying to find Earth foods for you they sent me a few of these as thanks for sharing my data with them” he said with a triumphant smile, “They’re part of the first harvest of Earth fruits in Andromeda”.
She wanted to cry. Finally something familiar in this new life, such a small gesture but the weight it carried settled in her heart and gave her such a comforting feeling. Ajaa was thoughtful, he was always trying to make sure she was happy and adjusting to everything and the fact he managed to get even just a few strawberries for her meant the world.
“Are you alright?” Ajaa reached out and wrapped an arm around her shoulder.
“I’m more than alright. I- I don’t think you know how much this means to me, but thank you’.
Ajaa pulled her into his lap and kissed along her cheek, “Then it was worth it, anything to make you happy is worth it”.
Julie held up a strawberry for Ajaa to try, wanting to share the moment with him.
“There will be other times for me to try them, they won't be the only strawberries in Andromeda. Take your time and enjoy them, but I do have one more surprise for you”.
The few strawberries did not last long, but in the nearly two months she had been in Andromeda it was the happiest Julie had been.
“Close your eyes” he said again and smiled.
She turned around to face him and immediately opened her mouth.
Ajaa laughed, it was a low rumbling growl almost, “I feel like there's a comment to be made about finding an easy way to get you to open your mouth”.
“Ajaa!” Julie yelled and smacked his arm.
“In my defense I didn't actually make the comment” he smiled and kissed her forehead, “but you're right, it's food. Open your mouth again and I promise not to make dumb comments?”
She obliged and waited for Ajaa’s next surprise. Something hard touched her tongue and it took a moment for the flavor to set it. “Chocolate” she smiled and opened her eyes, “Don't tell me you somehow got this from the Nexus team too?”
“The cultural exchange actually. I told them I wanted to better understand human culture to bond with my human girlfriend and wanted to find some sort of human sweets to try and somehow they found this for me” he said, giving the box a shake for emphasis, “Apparently chocolate is supposed to be a good way to win over a human”.
“You already won me over”.
“I know, but doesn't mean I'm ever going to stop trying to do the best I can for you”.
A new life but a good one, she thought to herself. Things would be alright in Andromeda, Ajaa was happy to do anything he could to comfort her, she had made friends here on Aya, and every passing day this new home felt less and less strange.
She threw her arms around his neck kissed him. It started soft and quickly deepened, her tongue pressing against his lips seeking entry that he happily gave her. She felt his arms tighten around her waist and pull her tight against him as he leaned back on to the ground. Her knees bumped against the ground as she settled on top of him but neither of them broke the kiss. One of his hands traveled up her back and he entwined his fingers into her hair while Julie moved her hands to stroke his cowl.
Ajaa pressed his tongue into her mouth with a moan. He was always vocal while he kissed, moaning and whining into her mouth while his hands gently explored along her.
He had not brought up sex after the first time it came up, and Julie was still not sure how she felt about it, but the kissing was something she had absolutely gotten used to. Every kiss had a tingle of electricity to it; it always started from where he was touching her, his hands, his lips, and spread all over leaving her with a pleasant tingly numbness.
“Julie”, he paused and began, breaking the kiss. He was looking up at her with such a soft look, a smile on his parted lips, “I love you”.
“I love you too, Ajaa” she plunged back into the kiss, deftly parting his lips and swirling her tongue around his. Her heart raced at his confession, not that she was surprised in the slightest, but there was still a rush from hearing it.
His hand still on her lower back pressed her down against him and she felt him roll his hips up against hers while he sat back up. She would be lying if she said the friction from it did not feel good, or that the sudden sting of his teeth on her neck did not send a jolt down her spine straight between her legs as he continues to roll his hips up against her’s.
“Ajaa” she whined, still very conflicted about how she felt about everything.
He froze, his lips still against her neck and suddenly very aware of everything as his train of thought caught up with him. “Sorry,” he muttered, “Got a little carried away”.
“It's alright” Julie reassured him. It was still a lot to handle even after an Ayan month. She still did not know a thing about angaran anatomy or if anything was even possible between them, which only made her more nervous. What if it's not possible? What if that makes it awkward? Julie climbed down off of his lap and leaned her head against his shoulder.
“I actually have one more surprise” he said, “Not food though, something I want to show you” he stood up and offered his hand to Julie to help her to her feet.
Julie took his hand, happy to see that nothing felt awkward. She helped him tidy up their picnic and pack everything back up and followed him through the unseen trails of the forest as thunder began to rumble overhead.
It was a bit of a walk, and not through the easiest terrain. Sivus would have a fit if he saw this, Julie smirked to herself as the the two made sure not to trip over anything.
“Any guess where we’re going?” he asked.
“Not really, the only other place I've been to down here is the clearing so if it's not there then I have no clue”.
A few minutes later they reached the clearing and Ajaa had the widest grin on his face, “Notice anything?” he asked.
Julie looked around, everything looked the same. Same trees, same plants, same place. “It's looks the same to me”.
“Look closer” he nudged her into the clearing.
She began to wander the clearing, slowly making her way around the perimeter. Tree, tree, bush, tree, she paused as she found Ajaa’s surprise, “A swing! You put a swing down here for me!” she nearly squealed. It was hanging from the same tree they laid under the first time Ajaa had brought her down there and it was perfect.
Ajaa crossed the clearing and wrapped his arms around her waist from behind, “I promised you I'd put a swing down here the same day I brought you here the first time, and now you have somewhere to remind you of Earth” he kissed the side of her cheek, “I hope it makes you happy”.
Tears welled up. Happy tears, but tears for sure. The strawberries, the chocolate, cooking for me, the whole picnic, and the swing! It was a lot to take in, but everything settled in her heart and gave her a feeling of comfort and warmth that she had not really felt since she woke up in Heleus. He cared a lot, far more than anyone else ever had, and Julie was not sure just what she had done to find someone like him.
“You are everything to me” he began, “We grew up 600 years and galaxies apart from each other, and it really does seem like the stars themselves sent you to me. I spent years trying to find someone who treats me like I am whole and as I gave up you practically feel from the sky. I hope one day to share my home and life with you if you feel the same about me, but for now I don't need any kind of answer, I just need you to know that you are the most incredible person I've ever met and the most precious thing in my life”.
Julie wiped some of the tears from her eyes as they flowed more freely and turned to bury her face in his chest and hug him back. She felt him run his fingers along her back as he pressed a kiss on the top of her head. Everything was perfect.
“Sit, I'll push you” he smiled and guided to the swing. It looked just like the one from the video she had showed Ajaa. She was not sure how he managed it, they spent most of their free time together so when he found time to go do this for her was a mystery.
If she closed her eyes it was almost Earth. The wood from the swing bench felt warm against the backs of her legs even as the storm clouds rolled in and the breeze was cool against her face as Ajaa slowly pushed her. “We should come down here more often” she told him.
“Anything for you”.
Julie dug her feet into the ground to stop from swinging and leaned back against Ajaa.
“What's wrong?” he asked.
“Nothing. Everything is perfect, beyond perfect”.
The way he wrapped his arms around her in a hug always made her heart skip beats even a month later as he held her while she sat on the swing. She turned her head to kiss his chest and stomach and she could feel his low rumbling purr as she did. He reached down and tilted her face up towards his and caught her mouth with a chaste kiss. His lips were always cool and soft against hers, something so different than what she had been used to but now she welcomed against hers.
She pushed the kiss deeper, turning her body to face him pressing her tongue into his mouth while she pulled him down to her. She loved the way he moaned while he kissed, how vocal he was while she stroked his cowl or did anything.
Ajaa lifted her from the swing and pulled her tight against him as he carefully laid down and sat her down on top of him. Julie straddled his hips, her knees on either of his body, and placed her elbows on either side of his head so she could run her fingers along his cowl. He always made sure Julie was on top on him, making sure Julie could stop things whenever she wanted and climb down without having to say anything and she was thankful for it, but for now she enjoyed how he felt under her.
His hands found their way to her lower back as before and were pressing her firmly to him while he ground his hips up against her. Julie buried her face into his neck, focusing on the rhythm he was setting and letting out a small moan of her own. It had been a long time since Julie had been with anyone, the last time had been even a while before traveling to Andromeda, and it was really starting to hit her.
She moved her hips in time with his, pressing down each time he rolled up to her. His lips found her lips at the same time his hand found her backside, both were firm against her. Her teeth bumped clumsily into his, the kiss becoming more desperate as she felt a familiar heat pool low in her belly while thunder grumbled louder overhead.
“I, we’re going to get rained out. I think” he panted, though he made no attempt to stop what he was doing.
Julie bit down on his lip before reluctantly pulling away. Being stranded in the rain and trying to make it back to the city while trekking through the mud was just asking for trouble, but she was not sure if she would have the nerve to continue if she stopped.
“Continue up at my apartment?” he asked.
She helped him up and brushed the dirt and leaves off his back, the uncertainty of everything was creeping back up though.
Ajaa smiled and nuzzled his face against her’s for a moment before picking his bag back up and taking her hand to guide them back out of the forest. He was cheerful as always, chatting animatedly as Julie remained lost in thought.
It’s been a month, over a month really on galactic standard time. You’ve slept with people way quicker than that, she mulled. It was true, though it was true for humans.
How can you still be uncomfortable about sleeping with someone outside your species? You’re the only one you know that hasn’t! And it's not like this is some random fuck, he loves you!
“-otherwise it's just pointless, you know? Julie? You alright?” Ajaa’s question jolted her out of her train of thought.
“What? Yeah. Fine. I'm fine” she said quickly, hoping to avoid any suspension.
He pursed his lips, clearly not buying it, “If something is bothering you, you can tell me. You know that”.
“It's really nothing, I promise”.
The look on his face said that he still did not believe her, “If it's about what just happened, we don’t have to do anything. Not until you're ready, if you're ever ready. Alright? We can just pretend nothing happened and go cuddle up and wait out the rain”.
Julie gave a nod, the most she could manage for the moment.
“Come on, you don't have to look so serious” he smiled, “I love you, I love what we have, anything more is just a bonus” all of his kisses were very reassuring, “We’ll head back up, I'll bundle you up in that blanket you like, make some tea, and we’ll watch more of the terrible films the Initiative brought over from the Milky Way”.
“I'd like that”.
“Then come on my love, we have a rainy day to enjoy”.

So I head canon angara as being herbivores (it's came up in GA) and they can't really break down animal proteins at all (meat, eggs, and milk all would make an angara violently sick).
However Ajaa is fascinated by human cooking and sneaks a taste of whatever Julie is making when she's not paying attention. Most of the time it's just a quick taste and he's fine, there have been a few cases of him going back to sneak more because he liked it and he's ended up being very sick. Julie would feel bad if he didn't keep doing it.
She ends up keeping things like soy milk and tofu in the house that way when she makes any sort of meat she can make the tofu the same way and they can actually eat together. Ajaa still sneaks things that make him sick

Some Ajaa facts because I love him
He's got a big thing about food textures. He doesn't like yogurt, pudding, or anything similar because he claims they feel slimey. Similarly even though he hates the taste of peanut butter the texture bothers him more and he won't eat Nutella because of the texture (he loves the taste though).
His favorite human food is chips. Any type. Julie can't keep them in the apartment because he'll wait for her to go somewhere and then eat the whole bag in one go.
Ajaa is pan and has no preference for any gender. He's been with men, women, and non binary people.
He and Sivus dated for a bit but mutually ended it shortly after because they were already so close as friends before it just felt weird to be dating each other.
He gets overstimulated easily if there's too many noises at a time and actually prefers to work in silence. He's been like that since he was a kid.
He loves to swim. It was part of his physical therapy when he was learning to walk again and he likes it because he can more around a lot more freely in the water. He doesn't swim anymore though because he's very self conscious of his scars.
He loves rain and lightning but he's scared of loud thunder, low grumbling thunder is alright though.

Ajaa's name doesn't come from Shelesh, it comes from Varli, a language native to Havarl. It's not spoken anymore, and no one has spoken it for ages, but a few words, expressions, and songs of it exist still.
Ajaa comes from ajaara, which are the aurora lights that happen in some regions of Havarl. The night he was born there was a really bright aurora and his family thought it was a good omen so they named him after it.
Sometimes his parents would affectionately call him ajaara

Fun fact about Ajaa!
When he sings it's not in Shelesh! The songs that were passed down to him by his family are actually in an older angaran language found on Havarl and it's often considered one of the original angaran languages! No one really speaks it anymore, but a few songs and their translations still exist!
His favorite song to sing (in general and to Julie) is a song about a pair of lovers. It's about a lonely angara who couldn't find a lover so they prayed to their ancestors and the stars until one day a lover was sent down from the stars to them! The soul of their lover was the soul of a lover from a past life who was never reincarnated and they were given a body made of star dust and sent down to them. Ajaa has always loved the song but after meeting Julie the song has a very special place in his heart.

It's a Christmas party, Ajaa and Julie happen to walk underneath the mistletoe, do you think they would take the opportunity to kiss in front of everyone or be too embarrassed about it?
If Ajaa knew about mistletoe he wouldn’t hesitate, like full on dip Julie down and give a real kiss. Ajaa doesn’t really get embarrassed, he doesn’t like talking about his scars/family/the kett attack but that’s different from embarrassment. Nothing really fazes him, and to be honestly he’s a very touchy-feely person anyways.
If they were at a party where Julie knew it wouldn’t draw any bad attention she’d reach up and give him a quick smooch. Ajaa on the other hand would probably go for tongue :P

In your headcanons, what do you think Angaras have... "Down there". Do you think they're sexually compatible with humans where they can have complete orgasms and penetration? Do you think Ajaa or Julie would be curious as to how intercourse would be with one another?
So as far as I headcanon, vagina is pretty similar but no clit and there’s more nerve endings inside to make up for it. For penises, angara sheathe (like how a lot of people headcanon turians do so dicks stay internal until needed), also they have a much thicker base and a more tapered tip, and there’s folds of skin/ridges on the top of their dick similar to the folds on their head. (I also have a way too in depth and nsfw post about this that I’ll have to dig up)
I definitely think humans and angara are sexually compatible, though there’s a learning curve for sure mostly with the bioelectrics. I do have a headcanon that there’s an electrical discharge during orgasm and between two angara it’s not an issue usually (though the first few times sometimes people do let off a bit too much electricity and shock their partners) but an angara really needs to focus on not hurting a non angaran partner since they can’t just absorb electricity.
Ajaa is very interested in sex with Julie, however Julie is very concerned about sex with someone who isn’t human, though like any decent person Ajaa would never pressure her into anything.

TMI Tuesday
Questions about my OCs, about me. I don't care I'm just bored at trapped at work with nothing to do and everyone loves inappropriate questions.

Ajaa's pet name for Julie is kari, which means jewel in Shelesh.
It comes up because of a translation error actually! Julie's typical nickname is Jules which Ajaa's translator picks up as jewels and translates to karia (plural for kari) and he just goes with it and calls her kari without realizing the difference.
It gets sorted out quickly but the petname kari sticks
