What's your favorite thing about mortals Cataloger? :0

The Cataloger: Uh...I dunno. It's just kind of cool to see the mortals I catalog for a change.

The Curator: You never get to see the mortals you sort? Do you at least get to know some information about them? How else are you supposed to properly sort them otherwise?

The Cataloger: No, father doesn't believe it is necessary for me to know much about the mortals. I sort them according to how father sorted them before I was created, which is from most thriving specimen to least thriving on origin planet.

The Curator: That is actually the worst and most outdated criteria to sort them by! What "thrives" is subjective instead of objective, and thus fails new standardized procedure for categorizing. That's like sorting them based on how much you like the way they taste or which you think are the cutest.

The Cataloger: I KNOW! It's so frustrating but father will not have me speak ill of his preferred methods or changing them. He thinks it's better because it saves the time of me needing to learn the information needed to apply the other methods.
