"I was never able to get up north, where many of the reptilians lived, but I once shared a cell with a crocodilian. They tended to get a bad reputation because of their appearance, but they're not as close to their animalistic counterparts as everyone always seems to assume. Because they looked a bit like bipedal crocodiles (or lizards, or snakes, etc) with humanoid torsos, people liked to talk about "tendencies" and "urges" and stuff like that. But it's hard to think about things like that now. There's so much perspective. Everyone was just... a person. Why is that ever a question?"
