Hmm. This was an interesting topic, and it was one that Mo often had with himself. Y'know, because talking to oneself was totally normal. He settled with his legs outstretched under the bench and his elbows propped up on it, and he tried not to watch the bird instead of the professor.

Animals were just more interesting sometimes. And he had his camera, and that bird was super photogenic.

"I think that Tora has a point, in so far as the traditional definition of beasts included those that were not sentient. Or... those that couldn't think for themselves or speak up for their rights. But my opinion is that we're limiting beasts to our understanding of what thinking and speaking should look like. Under the broadest definition, a beast is a living creature, and we are included in that category. I could do without beast/being distinctions." So says Mo.
