[romulanpride]

Dusting me off again? About time, Outworlder.

Then again, I can afford to wait longer than you can. Tragic that your species is so short-lived.

[imago]

What's up with the forehead? Are you some kind of cosplayer?

[romulanpride]

No. I am a Romulan. Not that I expect you to understand what that means.

[imago]

Oh, come on. You don't expect me to believe you're an alien, do you?

[Crazy otaku.]

[romulanpride]

You're the alien from my perspective. Terrans, honestly.

[imago]

Okay, fine. I'll humor you.

Use the Force.

[romulanpride]

The what?

[imago]

The Force. You know, lift something with your mind.

Or you could show me your tentacles.

[romulanpride]

I'm not a telekentic. Nor do Romulans have tentacles.

_{[The very idea...!]}

[imago]

You sure?

[romulanpride]

Very.

[imago]

So what can you do?

[romulanpride]

I'm a communications officer.

_{[Well, and a code-cracker, but the human doesn't need to know that.]}

[imago]

You don't sound like a very good Klingon.

[Now she's just messing with you.]

[romulanpride]

_{[Oh shit, you've done it now.]}

I am not a Klingon!

[imago]

[She'll remember that for later]

Why, what've you got against Klingons?

[romulanpride]

They are a brutish, barbaric race. Cunning, but with no sense of real honor.

[imago]

And I guess you have a sense of real honor.

[romulanpride]

Of course we do.

[imago]

Like how?

[romulanpride]

You wouldn't understand.

[imago]

I have faith in you. Use your words.

[prideofabh]

Not all of the species, assuming you mean humanity. But most likely your mundane.

[Of course, Lafiel doesn't exactly look human compared to your average Star Trek alien -- blue hair, her spacial sense organ (hidden under her tiara) and pointed ears could easily land her a part as a new species]

[romulanpride]

Of course not. But Terrans are rather short-lived.

_{[Seen one forehead alien, you've seen them all.]}

[prideofabh]

Landers -- I assume that's what you mean by Terrans -- are; other human variants are not.

[romulanpride]

Humans don't have variants. They outlawed genetic modification ages ago.

[prideofabh]

Where you are from, perhaps. The fact I'm standing here talking to you is a good indication that that is not universally true.

[romulanpride]

Then you're not really a Terran anymore, are you?

[prideofabh]

I'm human, but not Terran. That's correct.

[romulanpride]

Odd. You look more like a Vulcan.

[prideofabh]

What does a Vulcan look like?

Also, I have to say I'm excited to see someone playing Lafiel.

[romulanpride]

Pointed ears, dour expressions. Not the blue hair, though.

<user name="entanglement_rp"> has her AND Jinto

[prideofabh]

The blue hair is a mark of the Abh people; my ears are the signature feature of my family.

[servesthelightindarkness]

Assuming you mean humans, from what I've heard, they can occasionally be surprisingly long lived.

Though they're still the shortest-lived among the races I know.

[romulanpride]

Occasionally, yes. But still short.

[servesthelightindarkness]

Occasionally, admittedly mercifully so for the rest of us, with some of their more.. ..spectacular examples.

[romulanpride]

I'll take whatever small favors the universe grants.

[dominion_war_graduate]

I didn't think patience was a Romulan virtue, given how violently unstable your internal government appears to be.

How many coups have there been now?

[romulanpride]

Our government serves the interests of the Empire; nothing more and nothing less.

I don't expect you to understand a thing about us, terran.

[dominion_war_graduate]

Really? And repeated violations of the Neutral Zone treaty and its stipulations serve the interests of your Empire?

I'd think your Empire could do better at keeping its Warbirds in check. At the very least, you have to admit that for having established such a treaty, the Federation does find your ships on our side on numerous occasion.

[romulanpride]

Ah, now I remember why I find most Terrans so distasteful.

Their insipid sense of moral superiority.

[dominion_war_graduate]

Is that all it takes to get under your skin?

[romulanpride]

If one flippant remark was all it took, I wouldn't be an officer in the Galae.

[dominion_war_graduate]

Good to know.

Look, our two governments have never been the staunchest of allies, but in this place I feel it only wise to suggest a truce, or at least a temporary cease-fire in the face of something unknown that may as yet threaten both of us.

[romulanpride]

As if I'm going to trust a member of Starfleet.
