I can't imagine how the Deaths would interpret humans putting their lives in danger by riding on poorly-designed machines that fling them and bounce them around in painful and possibly dangerous ways, and why humans do this for FUN.
Humans have been able to learn each other's languages since we figured out where the exit from the Rift Valley was. Pointing and charades, shouting and arm-waving, and lots of show and tell.
Aliens who have cephalopod bodies. Inventing yoga for octopods might be fun. And to me the unknown is exciting - it's a huge stack of unimaginable holiday presents, just waiting for someone to come along who knows how to open them.
And I want the Blessing of Ashes. An endless supply of books I haven't read yet!
