[Why, huh... it sounds like an easy enough thing to explain, but he's not sure it's his place to talk about being an abnormal. Not without compromising on Reign's privacy, too.]

I don't really know about Reign. He must have been cut from a kinder cloth... he was always kind and gentle, especially when we were kids. He never treated humans poorly, but... I was still surprised when I woke up and found out he had so many human friends here.

[Which Shell might have expressed in some regard when they first met on the station. Reign wasn't that kind of abnormal, after all.]

But as for me... I've always loved humans.

[At some point while talking, he finds himself leaning back against the cushions as well, until his head finds a place to rest against Chuuya's shoulder.]

My father was busy when I was a child, so he had a human look after me instead. He was always so warm and kind to me... even though I know my father must have treated him poorly. But it was because of him that I started caring about humans. And even back then... I didn't like drinking their blood either.
