I am nothing but a professional at work. Even when I am dealing with idiot turians and an elcor takes forever to do anything. With mounting irritation: You are welcome to disregard every sensible instinct you possess and fight against your own sense of normalcy in order to please us, if you wish. Do not expect the same in return.
I don't really need to please the elcor Didactic disapproval: By this point you should have learned that other races will think and act differently from yours. It is irritating, but it is the way of things.
Sadly. I've been exiled for a very long time at this point. And the only thing I've learned is that people, when they aren't stupid. Are just trying to take advantage of you. It would be a lot easier if they just acted like decent people that didn't try to inconvenience me at every turn now wouldn't it? Annoyance: Most everyone else in the galaxy manages to deal with it.
The rest of the galaxy probably doesn't have to work with the galaxies slowest elcor every day. Hints of anger: I find quarian suits cumbersome and annoying, because I can't smell anything through them. Kindly take yours off next time you speak with an elcor.
They are annoying. But the only thing they effect is my ability to do certain tasks that inconvenience no one but myself. Tiredly: Are you suggesting that all elcor are liars, that your co-worker in particular is a liar, or that you are so inherently distrustful that you dislike having to take someone at their word?
Yes. Pointedly: The purpose of a translator is to enable the most effective communication. Programming it to misrepresent everything you say would seem to defeat the purpose.
Oh whatever. If you and your species don't want to change with the times then you can all stay the same slow, droning creatures that you are forever. Irritated: What motive would someone have to lie about the tone in which they intended a statement to be registered?
Oh don't you dare tell me you haven't purposely made up an emotional state to hide your true feelings. Every species lies. Affected amusement: You speak through a vocalizer, do you not? How do we know you're letting us hear what you really intend?
Because when I tried to alter my vocalizer when I was younger I shorted it out. And I had to go three months without someone being able to understand anything I said (outside of body language though no one back then really cared what the filthy suitrat wearing rags had to say anyway) for three months until I managed to acquire a replacement part and a cleanroom. That's probably not your answer. I am skilled enough in deception and things like lying because that is quite literally the only way I would ever survive more than a week on my own. |
