Hello, fellow Moonblessed. If you'll oblige me with some of your time, I have a few questions about humans. That species is nonexistent where I hail from, so please forgive my curiosity, and I apologize in advance if any of these are rude.

1. Humans have no shells or carapace, and their clothing seems more decorative than protective. Am I correct in assuming that they use magic to defend themselves?

2. Do humans go through metamorphosis? I don't believe I have seen a human larva or grub here, though I admit I do not know how I would distinguish human young from an adult other than size.

3. Most humans that I have seen have hair primarily on their heads, rather than their whole body like, for example, a spider. Does that not make regulating their temperature more complicated?

That will be all for now. Once again, I thank you for your assistance.

[...Grimm is doing his best.]

oh, you're pretty cute. i thought you were going to look gross and scary.
if anyone from my world saw you they'd think you're an evil spirit, though.

[ are those horns?? he doesn't even look like a moth. is that a CAPE? ]

for all it's worth, you do have a somewhat humanoid appearance. congrats.
though i guess you'd resemble more a prismal than a normal moonblessed.

[Sometimes your wings double as a cloak and you're valid.]

I've heard that one at home as well. Some variant of "strange and sinister" is popular.

[necrowed]

strange and sinister sound right.
that's weird, though.
i'd think there'd be more moths like you where you came from?

[hagrides]

Yes and no. There are moths, but much of the tribe has died out, and the remainder don't resemble me much.

[necrowed]

oh, so it's like how humans work too.
similar yet different.
i guess there isn't much that differs us either, then.
you're learning about humans, right? what do you think?

[hagrides]

I've met many very charming humans here, and would be delighted to meet others.

You do seem a bit strange as a species, but I gather that you tend to think the same of mine.
