"It was a funny moment."

I know that the nanoscopic robots will eventually clean all my fangs completely, but it's easy to get impatient.

"But I can't help but notice that you're not laughing."

My talon is hooked on a particularly stubborn gobbet of something near the gum line. My voice is broken and hard to understand normally, so it seems somewhat futile to respond while my hand jammed in my gape. So I just squint my little pink eyes through the bars. Obviously I could just send response via comms, but I know better than to open up that way in my current circumstance.

"What I'm most surprised by is how you managed to find time to father children."
