Random -Roark greeting-

Description

Tonight's an orekroark night.
I suppose, a little into Orekroark language, Roarks gently bump heads as a greeting between each other but only between individuals who share some form of intimate relationship with each other, such as siblings, parent and child, mates, or very close friends.  Bumping heads with a stranger usually means that an individual intends to do something intimate with the other.  There's nothing wrong with this action being done to a stranger/unfamiliar or non orekroark individual, but others might see it as 1: an intimate notion, 2: a very high sense of respect towards the other, 3: an indication that those involved are planning to have a higher intimacy later, 4: familiars that have not seen each other for a long time, or 4: an attempted adoption into ones family.
Of course many things could be meant by it, but generally, the gentle bump of heads is simply a greeting between those who know each other.  Head pops, on the other hand (rougher bumps that often hit horns) is a sign of a confrontation, or a challenge.

This is just a head bump between two sisters, likely before this sit to eat or rest.

Orekroarks and all that is Hup belongs to me.
