*They lean into bird jokes a lot with their humor. Because in the academy they were possibly the only Aurelian that they knew there at the time. So they were a bit of a spectacle in a space that was primarily humanoid. People were nice, of course. And there were other people who were different as well. But there was always a level where people found them stranger than the usual level of strange. And they found involving humor about it helped ease people into realizing they weren't as different as appearance would suggest. And they still implement bird jokes now because they still live around primarily humanoids. | *They lean into bird jokes a lot with their humor.

*They have in the past used the bird humor to cause a bit of, quote on quote, trouble. It was mostly harmless, and more on par with a simple prank than actual genuine trouble. But it was certainly a form of minor chaotic energy that they found humorous. They enjoy the fact people tend to think it's not up their alley to have a little fun on the sly. They were similar back on aurelia, but it was exacerbated by humanoids who enjoyed that type of fun, as well as humanoids who had more than a little trouble completely accepting an avian race as someone who was on par with them as it was difficult to get past the whole 'bird' thing now and then. | *They have in the past used the bird humor to cause a bit of, quote on quote, trouble.

If a human or two now wholeheartedly believe that gibberish bird sounds are common phrases in the Aurelian language, who are they to argue, really? | ||
*Their gender identity has nothing to do with their biological sex. (Though there are definitely Aurelian chromosomal variations that exist naturally in smaller percentages.) They are who they are, and Aurelians are as diverse as humanoids in how they feel. But that is to say, they come from a matriarchal society (usually) led by the oldest living female in the flock. Even with their identity as it is, if they live long enough, and go back to Aurelia at the end, they have a chance of being the matron of their flock if they so want to be when and if that time hits. Because their identity didn't take that option away from them. Take that as you will about what that means biologically speaking. | *Their gender identity has nothing to do with their biological sex.

*Speaking of coming from a matriarchal society, they do find a strong sense of comfort in more feminine leaders due to the familiarity of it on Aurelia. That isn't to say they won't listen to others, or lack trust for them. In fact, they will listen just as much, trust just as much, and love just as much. It's just that there's a mental connection of feminine people being leaders that makes them feel more at ease with that concept over all. | *Speaking of coming from a matriarchal society, they do find a strong sense of comfort in more feminine leaders due to the familiarity of it on Aurelia.

*They're very family oriented. Once they feel a strong enough bond of some sort to someone, that person immediately has a lot of their trust and they will show as much. They become quite open once that's in place. Because whether Aurelian, or humanoid, or something else entirely, if you're their family that's what counts. | *They're very family oriented.

*While they aren't overtly romantic, and they don't usually go out of their way for it outside of rare circumstances, they have been known to be open to flirtation and general courting from people. This goes for Aurelians and Non-Aurelians alike (though understandably they have a general preference for other Aurelians more often.) They take well to most flirtation and can very confidently flirt back if they feel like it. Which has absolutely shocked a number of Non-Aurelians who weren't expecting them to be so suave about it for someone so quiet. What can they say? It's an ego boost. | |||
