[ Definitely not customary in most modern societies, as far as Megumi knows? Which is what he's assuming Noah is asking about, given his unusual background relative to the rest of them. ]
[ The message, at least, seems to imply that someone is trying to do a Good here, even if it's...a very awkward one.

It...kind of reminds me of cats, actually. Cats kept as pets are known to hunt small animals and leave them for their owners to find. It's usually a sign of affection. They want to provide for someone, or they'll bring a half-dead one because that's how they teach their own young to hunt, so they're trying to teach their human how to find food.
Lortel pointed out that some of us here seem to be retaining more human appearances than others. And this seems rather...animalistic. Maybe that's connected.
[ And boy, that raises some awkward questions about what's going to happen from here on... ]
[ Megumi is admittedly not the best person in the world to help interpret social cues, but he recognizes that he does have a leg up on Noah in...certain respects.
Especially if people here keep acting like cats. ]

Well, I can't worry about it now. If the intentions here are good, I'll trust it.

I think it's well-meaning.
