Nothing Untoward Going on Here [Open]
Red Snout had, through forcing a child a to help him and through his own sheer will, begun to learn how to read. And now he half crouched over one of the consoles, tapping at it with one claw as he goes through what he's been learning, starting with the alphabet again. Fascinating, really, how the humans could make symbols that represented sounds. It would make more sense to have symbols that represented things he thought. But they were humans and couldn't be expected to be as smart as raptors.
He mouthed the first 'letter,' quietly reciting the alphabet.
"A. B. C. D. E. F.G. H. I. J. K. L. M. N. O. P. Q. R. S. T. U. V. W. X. Y. Z." A pause as he switched over to a few simple words, brow furrowing in concentration as he stared at them. He would master this or he would give up his gun! If humans could do it, surely raptors could...

"I have known raptors who knew our land's Footprint Alphabet quite well, but I have also encountered some who choose to reject some or all of the things of civilization. Personally,I respect both lifestyle choices. We each choose the path that best suits us."
