For some reason I'm still trying to watch my posture to avoid becoming a vulture.

I should just embrace it at this point. I've already mastered eating horribly and vomiting when threatened, so all I have left to figure out is flight and I'm good. I mean, it can't be that hard if *pigeons* can do it.

“the average Jedi is very bad at staying under the radar” factoid is statistically incorrect. Cal Kestis, who introduces himself by name to every person he meets and is incapable of not using his lightsaber for more than 10 minutes, is an outlier and should not be counted.

listen.

sometimes you make a little guy and the little guy tells you things.

sometimes you make a little guy and the guy tells you nothing.

sometimes you are just sitting there and a little guy kicks in the door to your brain.

sometimes a little guy you haven't thought about in years pokes their head in and says "i'm evil now."

the ocs are minds of their own, and we writers are just the mouthpiece.

i love when ppl ask writers questions about their ocs and they're like "uhh i think so?" as if they didn't invent them. like they're just mild acquaintances we have

Dr Doolittle-style show about a detective who can talk to animals, except instead of talking like people the animals still talk like animals, just translated into English sentences, so the plot of most episodes centres around trying to figure out what the star witness testimony actually means.

Victim's murder was witnessed by her pet snake, whose tank was in the room. Unfortunately pet snake is incapable of describing the world around them except in terms of 'rocks' and 'meat', with their descriptions of individual forms of 'meat' focusing almost entirely on body temperature and smell.

(Solved when it turns out that their description of 'warm-cold meat with rock' was actually an attempt to describe a suspect with a prosthetic limb, which is pretty unnoticeable to a human, but looks dramatically different in infrared.)

Murder at a honey farm. Each witness managed to see about ~0.06% of the full crime, in order to get the full picture, you have to get them to swarm.

Victim was found several days after death, already crawling with maggots. Days into the investigation, protag begins a frantic search to find any surviving maggots/flies that were on the corpse, after realising that how the victim tasted would give vital information about the poison used.

Also there's at least one or two animals who actually do talk in full sentences and in terms humans can understand, and the reason behind this is never fully explained.

All cats in this universe talk in terms of 'mine/not-mine' and mainly focus on territory, mates and food, with the one exception of the main character's cat who is named Watson and knows how to use sarcasm.

All insects speak in one word sentences where everything is 'food', 'enemy' or (for hive insects) 'friend' and 'queen', with the exception of seven-spotted ladybirds specifically, who for some reason speak in full English sentences and are up to date and knowledgeable about world events. The protagonists is as concerned by the full implications of this as you are.
