"No problem. I'll let you know when I've got something for you."
Jacob raises an eyebrow at the engineer's next question before stepping back and leaning against a wall, considering it. "Hard to say," he says. "I grew up on spaceships. Met my first aliens when I was pretty young. Guess I've always been used to them." He appreciates that Isaac is admitting it's an adjustment instead of putting up a front. In his opinion, it's always better to be honest about issues.
"Best thing I can tell you is that most of them are just people like you and me," he says. "Sure they look a lot different. Act a lot different, too. But they've got their own personalities like anyone else, good points and bad points. Treat them as individuals first and a different species second, that's my advice." He spreads his hands a little. "Does that help?"
