Humans copying behavior would trip aliens out so bad. Like we react to animals turning their head at the 45 degree angle and go âdoes it make more sense at a 45 degree angle?â and then copy them. Then imagine an alien seeing us do that and going âdoes it make more sense at a 45 degree angle?â
And then we start copying them and theyâre either terrified or amused by it.
I mean on a surface level for other races it may not pop out. hey the human is being less confusing/their body language is so much more readable now! and then some of the more paranoid would go âtheyâre trying to lower our defenses by duplicating our intimate subtle languagesâŠand then kill us all!!â
Asari express many emotions simply through subtle energy shifts. Younger asari are noted for having shit lying skills due to their lack of control over biotic energy. Their intricacies lie within their energy, but that doesnât mean they donât have body language. The pursing of lips, while not exclusive to asari, is noted to communicate intense frustrations or discomfort. Humans eagerly picked up on the habit, often mimicking the asari to convey their own feelings of discontent. Popular consensus in asari spaces on the extranet was that it was adorable.
Krogan use their teeth as a threat. Itâs common for krogan to âsmileâ at each other as an act of intimidation, thought biting isnât usually the most practical form of combat for them. You tend to lose a lot of teeth that way. Then humans came along all toothy and having the general label as the biggest bullies next to turians! A lot of hostility brewed between the two species and eventually it became common knowledge that âwhen a human bares it teeth at you thatâs not an invite to fight,â and âdonât smile at krogan, it usually ends up with a cracked rib.â Now it seems a lot of bar fights between krogans and humans are initiated with âsmilesâ and done so purposefully.
I think more of the paranoia comes from turians and salarians. They both have the tendency to over analyze thingsâŠwell in the case of the turians I would too if we just went to war with these flesh bags. I think a few human related conspiracies become popular because of this behavior we display.
