“You know how they have to cover themselves up at all times?”
“Yes?”
“Why do they have to do that? It’s not like they are walking on inhospitable places all the time. They could just wear a karket to cover some of their parts up”.
“… Uh…”.
“What?”
“Have you ever seen a human before?”
“Ofcourse!”
“That would answer the question”.
“It doesn’t? They have fur. They are just covering their fur”.
“They don’t have fur- where did you get that idea from?!”
“I saw a picture of them! They havefur! I heard they complain about the weather being too hot all the time. If only they wore a karketlike we do…”.
“You mean, the fur on their heads? That’s hair”.
“They have a special name for that? But the fur on their bodies is the same…”.
“For the last time, they don’t have fur! Not thick fur, at least. They like to shave”.
“That’s… Not true. I can’t think of any intelligent species without fur or scales. It would be like… Seeing exposed flesh. They don’t have exposed flesh”.
“They don’t- you know what? Look”.
“I am looking”.
“Look at this. Thisis a human! Does thislook like fur to you?!”
“W…”.
“Hm?!”
“What the fuck is that?! The fuck- the fuck?! That’s exposed flesh, but not really exposed! What are the other Earth intelligent creatures?!”
“There aren’t any other. Only humans and the robots, but they are basically the same thing”.
“You must be fucking kidding me…”.
“Show me what you saw, then!”
“Fine! Fine! Just let me find it- there! Right there!”
