Thank you, Captain. It's still somewhat embarrassing, particularly because of... the audience for such a lapse, if you understand what my meaning. Such weakness can be dangerous, and I'd thought myself quite past self-doubt. To survive you need to have the utmost confidence in yourself and your beliefs, to weather the storm of bigotry and disapproval. Human society must have its equivalent, I'm sure.

Yes, that note was quite informative. Although I do wonder now, how many dialects do humans have? I'd assumed they simply had one united language... at least, that's the prevailing VUX belief. Language is something of an interesting subject for us.

You've roused my curiousity now, human! I wonder what you have in mind... whatever it is you have to explain, I'm sure it will be interesting! But I'd hardly need such an excuse to find you fascinating, my human love.

I see! Interesting... I don't think my writing could get much smaller without becoming illegible! Our language is fairly tightly packed as it is...
