Fantasy worldbuilding: the other races consider humans deceitful and scheming to the core, and there is one example of human behavior that they name each time they warn their young: Humans poison trap their own food storages. Anyone who has been to human residences has seen it, somehow they all do it - to deter thieves, naturally, though some think it is also to avoid suspicion when poisoning a guest or visitor.
Only members of one's own household would know which meats have been rubbed with poisonous plants, and which bulbs grown in the garden will kill you. And they're all stored right next to the proper edible food! And the humans never mistakenly poison themselves this way, they are far too cunning to fall into their own traps.
If you ask a human about this, they will be baffled and insist they've never heard of this custom in their lives. While they may suppose that some other human cultures might do something so wicked, each one reassures asking visitors that their people do not do anything like that. And the truth is, they really don't. Not on purpose, at least.
It's just that humans are the only ones immune to garlic, mint, and many other plants and herbs that are poison to all the other races.

Character Voice Tag
Very belated thanks for the tag, @kaylinalexanderbooks! I have a habit of collecting a million of these before doing them all in one go, so I'm pretty sure most people have already forgotten about this one, lol. Regardless, here it is!
My Prompt: “I don't think that's a bird or a plane.”
Luna: "Huh. Y'know what? I don't- I don't think that's a bird OR a plane..." Iris: "That's... not a bird. Not a plane, either..." Claire: "No, no, it's... fuck. Actually, what IS that?...Shit. I've no idea what the hell that is." Felix: "Um... I don't think that's a bird. A plane?? What's a plane? Do they move like that?" Meg: "Nah, that's not it... is that a harpy? That'd be a damn big harpy. A small dragon...? Shit, man. I dunno." Aven: "I've no earthly idea what that is, but that ain't a bird OR a plane."
Short but sweet! Thanks again!
Your Prompt: "You know what? Fuck you."

Not really satisfied with these... but tbh it might be that I don't know these characters well enough yet. But I guess that means I get to update it one day!
