    Oh that was me in reverse. Waking up to a pack of coyotes wondering if I was the tame human. Alas I sat up too quickly, scared them off, and now I’ll never get adopted by a pack of coyotes.

    Worf, from the Deep Space Nine episode Homefront:

    “Our gods are dead. Ancient Klingon warriors slew them a millennia ago. They were more trouble than they were worth.”

    That’s the best way to describe what a Klingon is; Zero fucks, 100% of the time.

      If the cat thought you had nothing to offer, they wouldn’t be coming to you. I’m pretty sure most house cats have been trained to think humans are magic food dispensers.

    I always like the analogy of man’s relationship with an ant is how it would be with a fae or elder species and man.

    Like if an ant managed to attract the attention of a human and requested it kill a specific ant, the human would respond by simply killing the entire colony as they can’t distinguish one individual ant from another.

    That’s what the fae do.
