[ANTI-KHAN FILTER]

Hi, I want to introduce myself. My name is Uhura. Apparently, I've been here before, but I have no memory of that, so I feel like it would be best to start from the ground up. I apologize if I have forgotten something important about you.

I do have a question for everybody: what languages do you know other than the one I'm speaking in now?


[PRIVATE | STARFLEET COMM FREQUENCY]

Lt. Uhura of the USS Enterprise, reporting in and hailing any and all Starfleet personnel. Please respond.


[ooc: She's already read most of the network and studied almost everybody since that is what she does. The Eye of Nyota is always watching. Or the ear. Whatever.]

[Oh, aside from how screwed up this place is, Uhura is in linguistics heaven. She gets to reply in fluent Russian again.]

Seems like Russian is very popular here. Any idea why?

[vdova]

[ Natasha replies in the same. ]

It's my native language. As for the others, no idea.

[phonetical]

Ah, I see. It's not my mother tongue. That would be Swahili.

[vdova]

That is one I cannot say I've had the pleasure of learning.

[phonetical]

If you're willing to learn, I'm willing to teach.

[Say yes, please. Let her cover you in a blanket of words.]

[vdova]

[ She thinks about it for a moment. And then shrugs lightly, although Uhura can't see it. ] It may come in handy. I see no reason to not learn at least the basics.

[phonetical]

If anything, it could be used as a great party trick.

[vdova]

[ Among other things. ] Certainly. Everyone could use more of those.

[phonetical]

May I ask your name? You already know mine.

[vdova]

Natasha Romanoff.
