10minutesofscreentime: (what the turian expletive is this)

one thing that unites all species: reaction to eusine

As Nihlus would say, this is so embarrassing.

He understands that Eusine is attempting to communicate with him, but not much beyond that. He winces almost imperceptibly at Eusine's loud voice and the unfamiliar tones of this planet's--correction, this particular place he's in's speech. His eyes follow Eusine's gestures as Nihlus tries to figure out what this native is trying to tell him - this might as well be the local way of greeting someone, for all he knows. He decides to take the safe way out and go through it word-by-word. Or, at least, what he assumes counts as a word.

"Earth," he repeats, trying to imitate Eusine's pronounciation and having some difficulty with it - vowels too deep and drawn out slightly longer than necessary, and the "th" sound is absolutely not agreeing with his turian mouth. He opts to pronounce it closer to "s".
