It's strange-- nearly all of those that have found this place seem to be human, or at least humanoid, while I clearly am not. Why would it choose me of all creatures to partake in a human gathering?

Are there any other animals here at all?

Hello, again.

I know a duck and a rat. ^{Although... I haven't seen them around for awhile now that I think about it.}

[lovelylyrical.livejournal.com]

Hello.

We have a rat at the barn. A rather odious creature, I must say.

[crackpotcrocker.livejournal.com]

Oh? Well, different worlds creatures are different. ^{After all} my spiders don't talk. ^{But then that depends on what you consider 'odious'. Yes.}

[lovelylyrical.livejournal.com]

What makes you so sure they don't?

[crackpotcrocker.livejournal.com]

I've had them long enough to tell. It's not 'normal' for any animal to talk in this world. That would be the work of - MAGIC!

Different worlds, different physics.

^{Besides, it's so quiet in my house if they did I'd hear 'voices' and I don't hear voices.}

You can have excellent hearing and still not be very good at listening.

[crackpotcrocker.livejournal.com]

This is true. You know. ^{You're very wise for a} SPIDER!

[lovelylyrical.livejournal.com]

You're very nice for a human.

[crackpotcrocker.livejournal.com]

Well, I'm only horrible towards other people.

[lovelylyrical.livejournal.com]

And why would that be?

[crackpotcrocker.livejournal.com]

Simple. THEY'RE NOT NICE TO ME!

[lovelylyrical.livejournal.com]

They're not very nice to me, either.

[crackpotcrocker.livejournal.com]

I'm sorry to hear that.

[lovelylyrical.livejournal.com]

Humans can be quite cruel, can't they.

[crackpotcrocker.livejournal.com]

YES! ^{Always destorying your webs.} Not that I'm any different I'm cruel myself just to them and not to 'people' like you.
