Tony couldn't help but smile to himself as she responded with such passion to his slow, clunky signing. It certainly did something to boost his ego for the moment. He savored these moments in which he possessed more knowledge of a subject than his crewmates. There were enough moments where he couldn't find a way to make himself helpful - diplomacy wasn't quite useful when the firefight had already begun, and there were some missions where his input wasn't necessary at all.

But now he couldn't combat this sense of pride that washed over him as he communicated with the girl. He took a moment to process her signs and break them down mentally before he turned back to Raymond and Rae. 

[color=ff7733]"She says she's a full human, and her name is Rendyl,"[/color] he reported, looking back at the girl for a moment to check that he hadn't made a major translating error. [color=ff7733]"Her vocal cords were damaged is all - she knows what we're saying."[/color]

There wasn't much time for comment before Raymond pushed off the wall and made to leave the med bay. [color=ff7733]"Sure thing, Raymond,"[/color] he replied, taking note of the edge in the Captain's voice. It wasn't enough that he felt the need to note it, but he tucked it away for later. He shot a look at Rae, gauging her reaction. 

[color=ff7733]"Do you have questions for her?"[/color]

In the mean time, he turned back to Rendyl to finish asking his own questions. Again, he began to sign as he spoke so that Rae could follow the conversation. [color=ff7733]"How old are you? How did you end up in a cryopod on an Ulnar spacecraft?"[/color]
