Weird Writing Dilemma of the Day

[awanderingbard]

If your character has a moth daemon who technically does not really have a mouth, can that daemon smile? Can it tsk its tongue? I mean, technically, it shouldn't be able to talk, but all daemons do, so does that extend its magical powers to make noises and facial expressions its animal counterparts couldn't make?

Also, in doing research for this, I have discovered that silkworm moths have adorably furry faces that make them look like alien poodles.

Life is weird when you write stories.
