[He nods as she lists off all the programs, watching the dancing demonstration with a thoughtful fort of intensity that almost certainly means the gears are already turning as he tries to figure out how to put all these things together. TECHNOLOGY. THE PERFECT DISTRACTION ALWAYS. They are going to build the best fucking AI, nothing about this is a bad idea at all.]
[The continued talk of hostages snaps him back out of it though.]
Mmm...I certainly hope so. [But he sounds kind of doubtful. He's pretty sure it's too late for him to get better at this whole comforting thing. Emotions are hard and Earthlings deal with them so much differently than Eldarians. He's so out of his element. So he's glad to latch onto talking about something else.]
Has she finally stopped glaring at me then? [He looks back at the screen. And if Inaba looks as well, she'll notice that a very young girl does, indeed, seem to be staring right at Faize with an almost fiery intensity. Despite the fact that her face is emotionless enough that she could pass for a doll. It's all in the eyes, really. Faize winces slightly, sighing a little.] I suppose it was a little too optimistic to hope otherwise.
[Why does it seem like they have a very complicated relationship. Oh, wait. Because they do.]
Her name is Lymle, and she is...technically a member of the Calnus crew. Though I'm certain you can tell by looking at her that it's merely a title, for the most part. [Look at those robes...she's gotta be a ye olde.] She comes from a very underdeveloped planet, technologically speaking. So she doesn't do anything when it comes to ship operations or mission critical decisions. But she is a valued member of our team, all the same.
