:Simulated Universe: The ape leisurely rolls over, its natural muscle contours tracing an untamed silhouette with perfect curves that make even the Intelligentsia Guild mathematicians drool.
:Simulated Universe: And that tail... it is jauntily swaying in the air, soft and comfy, like it is its own entity. It moves with a mind of its own in orderless chaos, as mesmerizing as a Lodell oscillator model.
:Simulated Universe: The purity of nature, the simplicity of science — evolution has generously gifted both of these traits into one creation. You silently sidle close to this ape, your wriggling fingers barely able to suppress the excitement threatening to boil over in your heart.
