See, look at that. You'll be being adventurous. [He starts making the tea, considering a way to answer Narvin's question. The problem is while Narvin was obviously deeply affected by what happened with his past, he's also an alien. He knows how to treat it as a human, how to avoid it, but in an alien? Especially one in denial, and at that for racial reasons.]

[He returns with the cup and offers it to Narvin.] Yeah, I do. The problem is that my PTSD expertise is with humans. So if you take an alien that, say, takes its experiences and segments them off into their own portion of their brain but then has to call upon them to solve certain problems then whatever survival mechanisms their ancestors developed would be what you'd have to consider most there. What their fight or flight is based on.

But that requires said alien admitting that they got some root in some real ancestry and they didn't pop out of the sea on a seashell the practical vision of perfection.
