[The face that appears on the feed from the omni-tool is certainly alien, and distinctly female to those who actually know her race. But she certainly doesn’t look impressed in the slightest, of anything she looks mildly bored with the entire scenario.]

So, I’m not sure if everyone has lost their minds since I was last to Omega, but I’ve had about six humans ask me what I was. Now I know that all of you have only been acquainted with turians for thirty years, but if you’re going to be part of the galaxy you should figure out what a turian is, there’s only twenty billion of us in the galaxy.

So if anyone else has stupid questions to ask me, I’ll be in Afterlife having a drink and trying to enjoy the dancers.

[She’ll pause for a moment and think, before addressing the recording again.]

Also, can someone kindly explain why I’m on Omega when I should be on Illium? Never wanted to be on this rubble heap again, and it only looks like it’s become more degraded since my last charming visit.

[OOC: For those who are in and around Afterlife she'll be hanging out there either having a drink or out near the front having a smoke. Feel free to chat her up.]

Pax.

[That's what she'll get for a name, not her entire name because it's long and stupid sounding so she'll go with that.]

I think Omega just draws more of them around, you just have to look harder to find the female turians here.

[Hey, Pax has kissed humans and asari before, it's a little complicated but she's made it work.]

You'll get your fill of new races then. Just stay away from the vorcha, they're nasty on the best of days.

[backstabbing]

[It's a perfectly fine trade of names, honestly. Isabela isn't even the name she was born with.

And she was thinking about more

southern

regions.

BUT NEVER MIND THAT she simply raises her eyebrow at the mention of the Vorcha and she finishes her drink as quickly as she had received it.]

Are those the ugly beasties with those terrible grins? You know, I was half convinced they were some sort of talking darkspawn when I first ran into one.

[spinelessdecoder]

[Heh, nice one Isabela. She could always find out, with enough talking, perhaps.]

Darkspawn would be a good name for them. Too many teeth, poor linguistic skills, and bad attitudes. I've never met a vorcha I could stand and I've killed more than my fair share the last time I was on this rock.

[backstabbing]

[She might just have to wink wink.]

Darkspawn have no ability to talk, most of them, anyhoo. [CORYPHEUS.....] So to me the vorcha sound plenty more intelligent than those blighters, horrible grammar aside.

[The glass is shoved off to the side and she waves away an offer for another drink. She's pleasantly warm and drunk where her voice is a bit louder than it needs to be and her words are carried on longer than necessary, but there's no need to make herself sloppy]

They are an awful lot like rats, scurrying about the shadows from place to place. Though one of them had set up shop and tried to get me to play 'three shells and a pea'.

[A pause]

Though I think it used an eyeball, not a pea. Such classy creatures.

[spinelessdecoder]

[Oh you.]

There's isn't much in the way of brains in them from what I've seen. I'd say watch them if they're trying to get you to play games of chance, they'll cheat you out of any credits you have.

[Pax will just sip at her drink, ignoring the look the turian bartender gave her to see if she wanted another drink.]

Probably an eyeball from the last unfortunate soul that lost their way in vorcha territory.

[backstabbing]

I've been watching 'em since I got here. They aren't exactly experts on subtlety.

[She idly scratches at a scuff mark on the bar.]

And usually I'm the one to cheat men of their coin...er...credits. I'd hate for the competition to get the best of me.

[spinelessdecoder]

Get four of them together and you might have half of a brain between them. But I'd say it's not worth your time to compete with them, there's bigger money to be found in other places.
