[There is a very pretty young woman on your network feed, everyone! Actually, she's a little too pretty. Not blindingly so no, that's the Lunars, but she's very... symmetrical. Completely symmetrical. Which just doesn't seem quite right to most humans, but good luck figuring out that that's what's tripping you up.

Pretty or not, she doesn't look thrilled.]

I am so-o-o bored. Is there anything to do on this ship? Empty space is really not that exciting and I'm starting to feel useless.

Is there anybody out there? Please let there be someone out there.

[Yeah, she can. Sad.]

Oh. That's kind of disappointing. [Maybe it's not their fault, though.]

It's more than disappointing.

If you're used to something more exciting than sitting in a metal box all day, it's a little maddening.

[though he's still smiling about it.]

You don't seem that bothered by it, though. [she bets they're not actually that bad.]

[Tek, exaggerate something? never.]

Oh, can't you tell? I'm in a positively foul mood.

[betterthananetdrama]

[ok no see now you're confusing her.]

You could've fooled me!

[heresyandlace]

[yeah, that'll happen...]

I often smile when I'm in a bad mood. Don't you?

[betterthananetdrama]

Nnnope. I was pretty sure it was the other way around, actually. [don't tease the poor android.]

[heresyandlace]

[oh but he can't help it.]

Maybe you just can't tell the difference between a genuine smile and a false one. Or even a cruel one. There are many different kinds, you know.

I know that much. Give me some credit. [She's coming to a conclusion that you're just weird.]
