Definitely the best idea I’ve ever heard for a unique take on alien life. There is a huge, awesome book to be written about interactions with this species and I won’t be writing it. But I hope someone does
I found it a bit difficult to communicate with the Martians, not least because I would endure a very distracting amount of sexual pleasure with every word uttered by or to me. In hindsight I maybe could’ve made some sort of device to communicate for me, but perhaps that would’ve been taken by the Martians as a bit cold and distant.
I still think this form of communication is an interesting idea, and I’ve considered adding it to my conworld, but the problem is that I cannot imagine any real reason why the Martians would evolve to communicate in this way.
