[ Ratio blinks, stunned by Godzilla's sudden outburst. He doesn't even register it as a different language coming out of the kaiju's mouth, since his Synesthesia Beacon translates all languages the same regardless. That is... quite a lot of cursing. But the first word is what really matters here. ]
Did this individual tell you their words were in jest?
[ And then someone Godzilla liked came to their rescue and forced the kaiju to promise he would not harm the 'traitor'. Curiouser and curiouser. Still, there's an unusual amount of ire for the person in question. If Ratio were to say the same things, would the kaiju react similarly? Or was there some sort of inherent bias at play? ]
A question, if you will. I presume this individual has done nothing else to offend you or raise alarm, save for those words. Why have you decided that they are not worth the benefit of the doubt?
[ This isn't Ratio trying to downplay Godzilla's concerns, though Godzilla is absolutely free to interpret it that way. He wants to fully understand the kaiju's reasoning in order to see the bigger picture. ]
