"Okay, subtle, no gun", Mafyyil repeats cheerfully. "I can be subtle, no problem! In this case I'll refrain from anything dramatic and stick to sonnets, those suit any occasion."
[I think Mafyyil has theoretically been educated in the poetic traditions of at least 20 different cultures, and should have at least basic understanding of the languages involved. Of course, practically she was so hopelessly bad at everything that she was sent off to die. So I doubt she speaks Naxorian - at best (worst?) she'll recognize a few cusswords because obviously those are the first she memorizes in any new language.]
