He sighs heavily. "This has always been the most frustrating thing about humanity. I don't understand how a single individual can show to compassion and love to some people, but reject others for arbitrary reasons. It makes no sense that a society might champion tolerance and peace as their core values, but treat outsiders with violence and hate...I was built to help humans, but I've always struggled to understand this about them..."

But to me, these differences seem so small that I genuinely can't understand why they're even worth mentioning. For heaven's sake, there are humans who get their teeth sharpened just like that for fun!"
