"Well, the whole blue thing and the fact that you refer to humans as 'you humans' is sort of a dead give away." He said somewhat doubtfully. "I've never heard of a Gem outside of like the minerals."

"Humanity typically goes the biological route where I'm from. No err..uterine replicators, whatever that is." He could only hazard a guess as to what that meant. It wasn't like Kurt had a lot of experience with human reproduction to begin with so it was all just educational guesswork on his part. Of course, humanity had begun to work in flash cloning both organs and the highly illegal experiments flash cloning entire human beings. But they'd never mastered the art of cloning an entire human and those clones inevitably broke down and died usually within weeks or months which had lead to their eventual banning of the practice.
