I always think about joining in but then I start thinking I'll answer something about some benign retail job I worked in high school and somebody will be like "I KNOW EXACTLY WHERE YOU LIVE AND ALSO THIS ONE REALLY EMBARRASSING THING YOU DID SIX YEARS AGO"
their cute little :3 beaks their snooters how my turtel's eyes have beautiful stripes through them their little paws the way they sprawl out all splappy footed and comfy how cute they are when they eat when they yawn when they just bulldoze through everything obliviously
they stumbled into peak form in the age of dinosaurs and have barely changed since. some species actually might do curiosity and play behaviour. they're not pack animals but they'll share the best basking spots without a problem
also the really giant ones like neckrubs and if that degree of trust and comfort in a creature who hasn't evolved to be a social creature isn't the raddest shit then I dunno what is
