Thunder and rain
[…] you whisper of storms, and a gale howls through Parabola. The skies churn. The Hybrid's eyes shimmer with lightning-veiled clouds, and it produces a noise like a cat's purr.
"I don't know what just happened, […] it seems to like it."

Humanity | Description |
---|---|
1 | Clara cradles the child in her arms and bops it on its nose. It giggles, and the sound is startlingly human. |
2 | Within the child's mandibles, its mouth is starting to develop lips. It goes and it coos, a sound more or less human. |
3 | As Clara takes the child back from you, it reaches out and delicately grasps her finger. She flashes you a smile. |
4 | The child's eyes (your eyes) are quick and lively. They follow you around the room, bright with innocence. It seems to have acquired a teddy-bear, which it drizzles lovingly in venom. |
5 | The child's hands are bigger, stronger, more flexible (though each finger is still tipped by talons). It has started to grab anything within reach - sticks, books, Dr Vaughan's hair - simply for the tactile pleasure of it. |
6 | The child totters around the cabin on segmented legs, delighting in its newfound ability to scuttle. It moves like a lobster or spider, but the arthropod veneer is broken when it looks up to you and laughs with joy. |
7 | Something catches the child's attention: Hephaesta has wandered in and is making broad, silly faces. It laughs uproariously. |
8 | "It spoke its first word the other day," says Clara proudly. "It said 'home,' and pointed to the ceiling." Dr Vaughan still looks as though she's in shock. |
9 - 10 | "There's every indication that the Hybrid has interiority, empathy, a full spectrum of emotion," […] The child scuttles back and forth beneath the cosmogone sky, grabbing at butterflies. "It's growing up into a person. It deserves freedom. […]" |
