"Who sez things gotta run smooth?" Mornbein hitched her butt up onto the back of an armchair, a fat little baby with wild black hair held under one arm like a doll. "'N all them other questions depend on what the bastich's done lately."
((and I'm not totally certain why I'm hitting her with one of the most uncooth and ill mannered pups I have....))
Cue toothy grin that showed teeth a little too sharp to be human. "Offendin' people's the least'a my worries."
Then she looked down as the baby squeaked and threw his blanket over her shoulder before lifting her black T-shirt to feed him.
Once he was latched on she made sure the blanket covered everything that she wanted covered and looked up again to answer the original question in the way that seemed logical to her. "Friends jes' git words. Enemies git my fists. Kids 'n skirts weaker'n me git words. 'N my big brother gits a kick where it counts."
She has no idea what to think of that. It's a little scary to think that anyone isn't human. But she has met other non-humans who were very nice. Also humans who didn't look human at all.
"Yes but the problem is...What kind of words? How do you speak to them?" Why fight? But that isn't asked. Too many reasons.
"Kinda like I used with you. Fer my friends I'd do more like," she trailed off into language that was well nigh unprintable, though thankfully in no Terran dialect.
