I feel like humans are just a confusing menace in the animal kingdom.
They might destroy your home forever, or attack you for no reason. They might give you food. The food might be drugged! They might speak nonsense to you in your language, once, and then never again. They might trap you. To farm your fur and trap you in a living hell? Or to heal you of something you were suffering from? Or to take you to some new place for unfathomable reasons of their own? No one knows. They’re just fucking weird, man. Stay away from them.
We really are the Fae. Mostly Unseelie, though
Literally in some cases according to folklore.
They might corrupt you and your entire bloodline into being their eternal twisted servants!
They might do this and then abandon your bloodline to become pests and beggars in their towering cities, having forgotten your kind ever served them
I’m sure I remember a similar story about someone very excited to get a response each night, and eventually they followed the return call, it got louder and louder, and eventually they saw some other idiot hooting like an owl through the trees.
my own mother went to a bird sanctuary recently and was talking to a talking Parrot who mirrored her perfectly… until she realized it was someone on the other side of the cage
Following an almost human voice in the forest? Oh boy, sign me up!
Should that ever happen, I am running off in the direction of the voice the instant you take your eyes off me.
It reminds me to something in Annihilation’s story.
I had a long conversation with an owl once while camping. I couldn’t see it, but it sounded exactly like that Beedle guy from Zelda when you do something he likes, “Aaaaaa-OOOOOOH!”
Straight men when they get attracted by femboys:
