[ It's alright, really. Everyone recoils at first, for one reason or another. Some because he's visibly inhuman, others because so damaged, but everyone reacts with vague negativity or shock. DiMA doesn't mind, and his voice is as patient and calm as it's been all along. ]

A pleasure to meet you, Ianchus Cepheos. You may call me DiMA.

If it's alright, I'd like to speak about my brother. Many here know him, so if you do and you find it uncomfortable, we can hang up now with no hard feelings.
