good call

[He doesn’t look quite disappointed, but his usual smug look comes back to his face. It has to be unconscious. He abandons fingerspelling Emet-Selch’s name in favor of its meaning. The flow is nicer certainly.]

Emet-Selch has spent some time practicing with me, yet I sometimes come up empty-handed. Our language, when spoken, is not transcribable with this alphabet. I need more practice, but I know Emet-Selch is teaching me his own eccentricities... I’m glad to be speaking with you now.

...A bit of a tangent. Forgive me, as I have come to understand recently that this curiosity can be understood as unkind. I mean no unkindness. Was this a matter of birth or injury?
[ He punctuates by pointing to his ears. He tries to smooth his expression a little more. He wasn’t used to talking to near-strangers without a mask, clearly.]


“To peacefully force.” It sounds like an Amaurotine name. Elegant. Can I call you this way...or do you prefer Tyler?

[The speaker of nonsense certainly earned his name.]
