[Anant's earlier happiness was instantly extinguished into a deep calmness]
But I do not know what I feel. I feel slips and snippets of things, but I do not comprehend them - so I imitate the humans, because they are...bright. With their emotions. Their feelings. For a species that is normally so weak and fragile, so wild and impulsive, their feelings are both a hindrance and an advantage...
When a compliment is given, humans act happy normally - very happy! So I act happy! That is the correct thing to do, yes? They even make strange noises! They jump! I did it correctly if you believe I can feel it so!
