Owning a Slave...

[Alexandra Feanor]

She watched as he got saddened and realized that what ever he thought she had sad caused him great pain. She needed to take a different path and she smiled as she thought of something, pointing at her robes and pulling them a bit. "These are Robes. Robes." She continued to pull at her robes very lightly, getting the point across as she would need to teach him basic if they would get anywhere, she was hoping this would work better having noticed his intelligence this fast.

Bufu glanced up at the lady again as she started pulling at her clothes. What was she trying to tell him? Her clothes? Why was she-- She was trying to tech him her language! He had never had that good of a memory- but it woudl always be useful to learn whatever it was she spoke... That was probably the only way he'd be ableto communicate with her. Robes. That must've been teh word for clothes, in her language... Bufu made a mental note of that, before nodding, and pointing to his own clothes. Minds as well make it a mutual lesson...

"Nguo."

"Nguo means robes.... or probably clothes considering what you just said... ok ok, lets see..." She looked around and touched the bench they sat on, speaking as she patted it. "Bench." While she waited for him to understand her, a certain emerald colored Ashlan wolf moved out from being hidden and sat at their feet, looking up at Alexandra for a moment before she shook her head and silently communicated with it.

Bufu nodded slightly, and glanced down at the bench they were sitting on. Bench. She called it a bench. Another thing to add to his mental notes... Bufu slowly looked up, his mouth opening to repeat the word in Lugha, has he saw a giant green... thing... coming towards [member="Alexandra Cinthra"]. Mwezi has no animal life, therefore Bufu had never seen any non-binadaman life forms except for today. And this was the oddest one he'd seen yet. It walked on it's feet and hands... green hair. It had green hair. Bufu just stared at the creature with his eyes wide.

"Nini.... nini ni kwamba?"

[member="Alexandra Cinthra"]

 

[Alexandra Feanor]

"Err right." She moved to place her hand on the Ashlan wolf. "Daeda. His name is Daeda." She then would let his name sink in before aying what exactly sort of creature he was, first pointing at herself. "Human." Then she pointed at the Ashlan Wolf and spoke. "Ashlan Wolf." Hopefully the words would register and fit into the correct categories, if not it would be a very confusing set of words no doubt.

Bufu frowned slightly, and glanced at the creature. Daeda? It was called a Daeda? The Binadaman frowned, confused. Then the lady pointed to herself... Human? He thought her name was Alexandra? And... The Daeda was named 'Ashlan Wolf'? What kind of name was that... THough he guessed it wasn't any dder whtn Alexandra. Bufu stared at her blankly, obviously extremely confused.

[Alexandra Feanor]

She tried to figure out another way to say what she was doing, switching to pointing at herself and speaking once more. "Human." Then she pointed at him as well, keeping from getting too close though. "Human." She waited for him to get that much, letting it register she was talking about species' at the moment and waiting for things to understood more efficiently.

[Bufu Kompyuta]

...She was saying her name was human? No, her name was Alexandra... And she pointed to him too. His name is human-- No, they were saying they both were human! But she was a Binadaman... Maybe human was the word for Binadaman in their language? That could be it. So Bufu nodded several times, smilling. They were beginning to bridge the communication gap- that was definietly a good thing. Well... he thought they were anyway.

She now tried a different path, first pointing at him. "Bufu." She then turned her hand on herself and spoke once more. "Alexandra." She then held her hand over Daeda, patting him twice on the head, a bit of a joke behind it and between the two though she spoke instead of explaining that. "Daeda." She sat back and waited for him to then get what she was saying there, her back relaxing against the bench.

[member="Bufu Kompyuta"]

 

[Bufu Kompyuta]

Daeda? It's name was Daeda? So what was Ashlan Wolf? That must be what the thing was! Bufu nodded a few times, smiling as he finlly figured out what she was trying to say. But this was... an extremely complicated way of making contact. At this rate, a sentance would take the rest of the Light Season. Bufu had an idea that might work.

The Binadaman riased one hand, holding it out flat, and pointed out one finger on his other hand, before beginning to draw the finger across his outstretched hand. Like a pen writing on paper.

"Karatasi? Je, una kalamu na karatasi?"

"Writing... or maybe language... hmm." She studied the motion before blinking as she thought she got it. Pulling out the datapad she lay it in her hand and pulled up a three dimensional writing program, it would act and look like paper so to speak as she smiled. A Creation of her own she wanted to test extensively, this was a perfect chance.

Bufu nearly jumped off the bench when the hologram showed up. Bufu's eyes widened to an almost comical point, slowly leaning in towards the hologram.

"Nini ... hiyo ni nini?"

[member="Alexandra Cinthra"]
(Sorry for very short post, have to do something irl)

 

[Alexandra Feanor]

"Oh Kark." She pointed at the hologram and thought for a moment before speaking. "Name, Eve." In response Eve waved to the man, looking at Alex. "Hes a bit odd mother, how come you haven't introduced me to this one?" Alexandra sighed and focused on getting the name across.

Bufu blinked several times at the hologram, and nearly jumped off teh bench again as it spoke. After a moment of staring, the Binadmaan leaned in, and poked the moving hologram.

"Ni kitu gani?"

 

[Alexandra Feanor]

Eve looked back at him and frowned as she stepped off the datapad and walked out infront of him, using three dimensional holographics that had been developed by Alexandra herself to do such. "Excuse me, poking me is not nice." She frowned at the man and furrowed her brow as Alexandra laughed to herself. "Bufu... Shes... holographic." She knew the words would not mean anything to him, but she had to try. "Not, Real."

Bufu stared very closely at the hologram, and quickly shoved himself backwards int eh bench as it walked right off the pad.

"Nini?!"

After a second, the Binadaman leaned forwards again, and stared very closely at the hologram.

"Yako tu mwanga...."

Bufu waved his hand right through the hologram a few times, before glancing up at [member="Alexandra Cinthra"] with a huge smile.

"Yeye ni kama cosuva?"

 

[Alexandra Feanor]

"I think he said Hi... or he insulted you... man i wish there was a universal translator on the brain, how useful that would be." Thats when it hit her and she glanced down at Daeda. "Hey, i need your help." With that she did something very different than before, reaching out and touching the mans mind and instead of speaking her thoughts and more importantly ideas were transferred to him as they were accompanied. For example if she had said hello he would hear the word and then the idea behind the word, Ashlan had taught her that the transfer of ideas could substitute for any language, something she took to quite interestingly.

Bufu had no idea what [member="Alexandra Cinthra"] was doing or thinking, but for some reason he got a bit nervous when she started talking to the green thing... He quickly shook it off. What did he have to bbe nervous about?

"Je, ni majadiliano nyuma?"

 

[Alexandra Feanor]

She once more tried to instead of speak she send over the thought of a greeting, the idea of greeting him. mixed with her actually speaking the word. "Hello." She was hoping that both transferring the idea of what she was doing as well as speaking the would would get him to understand her a little faster.

(I apologize for taking so long to reply to this, i'm on a LOA due to my computer breaking. I just managed to get some time to reply to threads. )

Bufu blinked. He wasn't sure how, and wasn't even sure that he wasn't imagining it or going insane, but he thought he understood the meaning of [member="Alexandra Cinthra"]'s word... 'Hello'... It meant the same as Habari? Bufu nodded after a moment, to show that he understood.
