Alex looked at Tavros rather baffled. "I-I don't think we have lusus where I c-come from. Y-you're new on the sh-ship, a-aren't you?" It would explain why he seemed to think that Alex ought to have a lusus. "I-I mean, mum usedta take c-care of me, b-but I g-guess you r-really couldn't s-say that F-Father ever did mucha that." Though he didn't speak with an accent normally, the bare traces of a german accent could be sensed on both 'mum and 'father', turning father into something more like 'vahder'.
