-Turns to her, snorting-
Haha! What a suggestion, that I, Autonoe, should feel fear at such a sight! Nothing here frightens I, turian. The expressions you see upon my face are simply... erm, expressions of... cultural interface with this room. I am becoming party to its rich... miasma of... emotional... essences. Yes.
-Quietly walks back to Maeva-
This being said, what lesson is it that we shall first endevour upon?
... You will introduce yourself with someone new.
Say hello. Ask interests. Say about nice things to them.
What if there’s no better word than just not saying anything?(...maybe...? And maybe... Maybe this is Caroline, and Gracia is just perceptive in her sleep much as he is when he sees the visions of the fascists plotting to poison his water and bread, yes...)
...sh—... she is, uhhm... a-a very good human being, isn't she...?
(Nervous lil' wheeze... all that breathing is pretty labored and noisy.)

make it through this year if it kills you yet | 2001-2019Mmmh... big thighs...
-Maeva holds her hands out-
Hello. I am Maeva. It is good to meet you. I like planting trees and exercising. You look good today.
-Takes Autonoe's hand and gives it a shake-
What if there’s no better word than just not saying anything?-Shudders at the contact, seeming to turn greenish-
... mm. Yes. Let us... make an attempt...
-Breaks off the shake, looking her square in the eyes, uncomfortably direct-
Hello. I am Autonoe, a traveller. I find the act of meeting you to be quite acceptable. I am here to find one named Cori Magistralis and would be most grateful for any help in this endevour. I also believe that your features at this time are perfectly adequate.
-Stiffly extends her hand, grabbing Maeva's, still with a slight shudder-
-Maeva just stares, a small uncomfortable grin slowly coming to her face-
A— uh... th...
Try less words?
-Just back to snoring for now, thank god-
What if there’s no better word than just not saying anything?... I was attempting to most precisely and clearly illustrate my sentiments, but, alas, you may yet be correct. Perhaps the development of vocabulary in humans is not to the level I had previously anticipated. These specific humans, that is. Just these ones. As I am, in fact, quite human. Yes.
-Clears her throat-
Hello. I am Autonoe. I f-... hrm. Err, it is good to en- err, introduce myself to you. I want to find a thing named Cori Magistralis and want you to help me. Also I think you look acceptable right now.
-Jerkily extends hand again-

-Maeva shakes it, still looking very, very much like a gym teacher looking for a way to tell Little Wheelchair Jimmy that he'll never be the next Ussain Bolt-
-Eeeeeehhhhhhhhhh...!-
Good. Better. Um... let's pick someone and try...
-She looks about, then recognises Trudes, pointing to her-
Her!
-Gracia's eyes gradually droop back open as the dream, whatever the content, inspires a sharp uptake in excitement and rouses her-
Mmh... ohhh... Panos...
What if there’s no better word than just not saying anything?-Just turns on the spot, facing Trudy and moving towards her unsettlingly quickly-
-Before Trudy can register or acknowledge Autonoe, she begins to speak-
Hello. I am Autonoe. It is good to introduce myself to you. I want to find a thing named Cori Magistralis and want you to help me. Also I think you look acceptable right now.
-Speaks slowly and in overly annunciated syllables, like she is talking to a particularily slow animal-

I'll, um... see if he can. But you need to stop looking at around that way. You look frightened.
Mmmh... Caroline...
-Twitching as she dreams-
