This Story is Classified as HFY , but what does the Mean?
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
HFY is a story/series that takes a “human element” in either humanity or an “other” (race/species or object) that exists in a “setting” (future or other world/universe) with varying levels of culture, technology, society and history that help show in some shape or form the potential good or bad for humanity’s race/culture.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Taken from the FAQ of the r/HFY subreddit.
This is also a Science Fiction story ,What is Science Fiction?
--------------------------------------------------------------
Science fiction (sometimes shortened to sci-fi or SF) is a genre of speculative fiction that typically deals with imaginative and futuristic concepts such as advanced science and technology, space exploration, time travel, parallel universes, and extraterrestrial life. It has been called the "literature of ideas", and often explores the potential consequences of scientific, social, and technological innovations.
Science fiction, whose roots go back to ancient times, is related to fantasy, horror, and superhero fiction, and contains many subgenres. However its exact definition has long been disputed among authors, critics, and scholars.
Science fiction literature, film, television, and other media have become popular and influential over much of the world. Besides providing entertainment, it can also criticize present-day society, and is often said to inspire a "sense of wonder".
--------------------------------------------------
Taken from Wikipedia
Greentext \tg\ , what does it mean?
-------------
A popular device used for quotation and storytelling.
This began on the *chan imageboards, where quoting text places a Less or Greater than symbol in front of it, turning it green. This effect can also be done manually. Before long, this feature was put to innovative use. When quoting another post, greentext is frequently used for summary, criticism, and ridicule. Its other major use is storytelling, in which a lengthy story is told through fragmentary statements in greentext.
Greentext became highly popular for both of these functions due to its convenience. When quoting a post, it is easier to summarize than to respond in full. When telling a story, stringing together sentence fragments is a grammatically easier alternative to prose composition (it also makes for lighter reading).
This feature has become so widespread that it is sometimes used outside of imageboards (eg KZbin comments).

Humanity at its best is as startling as Humanity at its worst.

[@ChrissieBear]

A lot of HFY authors seem to confuse pursuit predation with persistence hunting. Pursuit predators chase down their prey to catch it, persistence hunters tire out their prey to catch it. A cheetah is a pursuit predator, humans are persistence hunters.

[@Neteruk]

Shooter Gatherers.

[@mystikmind2005]

Humans have never been persistence hunters, and never tire out their pray. Most animals have a far superior stamina to speed ratio than humans. What actually happens is the pray overheats, and humans use their superior thermal regulation to take advantage in certain hotter climates in Africa. But outside of Africa, the vast majority of humanity never even used this method of hunting AT ALL because humans realize they are too slow to ever be able to run down a prey animal.

[@mystikmind2005]

@@nadsenoj8719 Again, its not 'persistence hunting' it is superior thermal regulation hunting. This is why humans have no fur covering our bodies, because we have evolved in Africa towards superior thermal regulation in a warm climate.

During Xenos conversation, it all just blurred into one talking. I just didn’t registered the name. A little style between xenos could improve the narration, don’t have to go full voice acting like NFY, just a little differentiation between text and speaking.
