I12DT - Thoughts Are Simpler Out Here

[Robyn Delaney]

"So you're Teri, but you're not just Teri?"

[Teri Napliotis]

"No, we're still us. There's just... a lot more of us now?"

[Robyn Delaney]

"Sorry, still trying to get a grip on the pronouns. Like I said, I've never encountered anything like you before."

[Teri Napliotis]

"That's okay, we don't really understand what happened either."

[Robyn Delaney]

"It's definitely intriguing," she said.

[Teri Napliotis]

"Thanks!" she smiles. "Before coming here people mostly called us creepy." She doesn't look like that fact is bothering her too much.

[Robyn Delaney]

"I can understand that given what most people think about bugs or how outright afraid of them they are."

[Teri Napliotis]

"That's why we just lived in the mountains. People were afraid we would eat all their crops. We only ever ate some of it."

[Robyn Delaney]

"A lot of mouths to feed... sounds like my family," she chuckled.

[Teri Napliotis]

Teri laughs. "Maybe a little."

"Though we try not to eat too much at once. We're smarter than the average locust."

[Robyn Delaney]

"Well, you are still human, so it would make sense that self-restraint would fall in there."

[Teri Napliotis]

"Not everyone agrees with that, though." she just kind of shrugs.

[Robyn Delaney]

"Well, everyone's entitled to an opinion even if their opinion is wrong."

[Teri Napliotis]

She seems to think about that for a moment.

"That's true. But it becomes a problem when the majority is wrong."

It sounds like political commentary but she's really just talking about herself.
