"Licking"

I think Zev’s licking of people is part of her Cluster lizard instincts. Maybe she’s seeing if they taste good. We know female Cluster lizards eat their mates after, er…[i]mating[/i]. It’s entirely possible that licking is part of the Cluster lizard courtship ritual. There are a number of animals that [i]smell[/i] potential mates to determine if they have genetic diseases, and this could also be true with Cluster lizards (reptiles on Earth smell with their tongues, remember?). And this could be retained in Zev, at least at a subconscious level.

That’s my take on the whole licking thing (at least with the lizard chick).

In one or two episodes Zev licks Kai’s cryopod. When I saw that I thought “y’know it’d be funny if the bitch got her tongue frozen to the glass.” Well, from reading the review for [i]Vlad[/i] it seems just that happens to one of the Goth girls! Way to appeal to the audiences’ fantasies! [img]images/smiles/icon_smile.gif[/img]

When I first saw this thread title I was afraid it would be about those toilets on the Lexx with tongues. *shudder*
