✧*:・゚| A curious mind befitting a genius in his field, Siebren in his spare time offers knowledge to those who would bother to listen. CONFIDENCE in his talents, plain as the eye can see, nothing in all of Radiale could stop him! Siebren hums to himself, a pleasant, idle tune reflecting his often spaced out tincture, as he seems to be unaware of most of his surroundings. Most, however, yet not all. He pauses in his seemingly aimless quest, floating at a standstill as softened eyes WANDER OVER the figure of the troll just standing there.
❝ER, young one, are you unwell?❞ A concerned phrase MINGLED IN with unfortunate curiosity. Try as he might to seem calm and collected, Siebren is utterly in awe of the alien species. He would remain polite, of course, but there’s a hitch in his voice as if he’s discovered something INCREDIBLE. ❝I can imagine someone like you might find the facilities unfamiliar, yes?❞
The suddenness of that voice causes him to snap to attention, though there’s an undeniable kindness to the tone which immediately soften down his bristled posture. This guy bore no ill will, so what would the point be of getting defensive? Still, seeing a human like this approach caused him to do a double take for just a brief moment. He was unaware of how humans could age, and it was fascinating to meet someone who was further along that scale. Honestly with how his species ages, seeing trolls with visible shifts in age isn’t so commonplace. Lower castes don’t live long enough to make it to old age, and when they do molt into adulthood they’re forced off planet to serve the empire.
Human ageing seems more gradual and noticeable, which is fair considering the composition of their skin. “No, no I’m fine. Just trying to decide what I’d like to study if the possibility presented itself.” It felt so strange to have anyone call him young one, though technically the man isn’t wrong. He likely is younger than him. “I mean, only legislacerators really go to anything similar to these places.” After all they’re supposed to study law. “Uh. I mean, lawyers and prosecutors-” He definitely seems a tad flustered that he keeps forgetting humans don’t get their terminology in most cases.
