 “   well,   sweetheart,   every   species   is   different,   you   know   ??   for   example,   most   humanoid   species   give   birth   to   their   babies,   after   two   consenting   adults   have   sex.   some   people   do   that   without   wanting   to   have   a   child,   though,   and   that’s   perfectly   fine   too   !!   after   that,   the   baby   grows   in   the   womb   of   the   partner   who   carries   it,   and   once   it   reaches   the   term,   they   are   born.   but   it’s   a   little   early   for   you   to   be   thinking   about   babies,   don’t   you   think   ??   is   there   anything   else   you   want   to   know   about   ??   ”
