We all have four nostrils. The ones on the outside, and the ones on the inside, believed to be essential for smell, and an evolutionary leftover from when our ancestors were fish.

Auras are real!

Well not really, but humans apparently have some level of bioluminescence.

Speaking of fish....

I was on another forum discussing Alpaca sex, which is extraordinary in that the male deposits directly into the uterus, rather the vagina, with a huge level of pain for his Alpaca lady. (Alpaca sex is a normal thing to chat about, right? Right?)

But that is not what I am here for. I am here for Anglerfish. Those deep sea fish that use bioluminecsence to capture prey.

This are fish with a strong sexual dimorphism, the males are way, way smaller than females.

The method of reproduction down in the deep dark ocean makes it hard to find a lover. So female Anglerfish do the obvious and absorb the male into their cloaca to live as a parasitic sperm donor. The males basically become more than just a parasite, more like a chunk of male flesh within the body of the female, just able to supply sperm. I mean, who of us wouldn't?
