[ the problem with that is while seven understands humor, she often doesn't know how to respond to it and commenting on the temporal mechanics of the topic at hand is more her comfort zone than joking back. she has valid reasons for being the way she is, having been liberated from an automon's existance for a short amount of time, but does not feel as if she's required to explain herself. her humanity is a work in progress, something she hasn't truly possessed since she was six-years-old. seven takes (irrational) offense to the notion that she is nothing more than a robot. (and somehow, it was easier to brush off the negative commentary of a crew that understood the borg on an isolated vessel vs complete strangers.) ]
I understood the humor in your statement perfectly, but chose not to respond in a similar fashion. I will not respond again.
[ /click, because she has a meeting to get to with commander data and doesn't see this conversation going anywhere of use. ]
