Escape from the Mines (Shunna Maza , Ubi Sunt & Callie)

[IT-O (Zero)]

[OoC: I assume you meant Persuasion check, not Diplomacy.]

Njon hesitates a moment 
"Wouldn't an Imperial droid say exactly that?' 
He hoots and trills in Talzi to Zero 

[OoC2:  Zero wishes he had a pair of eyebrows to knit together in annoyance...     ]

Zero analyzes his options when dealing with the Talz.  He could attempt to intimidate the Talz by creating an aura of unliving, emotionless menace that no biological creature can match and combine it with the cruel application of medical knowledge (via Interrogator talent).  But it would only confirm the Talz's irrational dread of all Droids, with now Zero included.  Zero could order the Talz at blaster point to let the droid out but again it would only reaffirm his droid bias.  The Droid had some programing in psychology in which to persuade the Talz but as Shunna stated, there is an army approaching which indicates there wasn't a lot of time to convince the Talz to take action.  This all takes about 0.68 seconds to analyze, which for a droid, is nearly an eternity.  Zero chooses to first apply a gentler approach.

"Mr. Talz.  I understand your apprehension," Zero hoots and chirps in Talz.  "But unfortunately we need an exceptionally skilled pilot.  If the droid was working with the Imperials they would employ his skills rather than this basic Astromech."  

"No offense," Zero says in binary to the Astromech. 

"So please, open the compartment so this droid can get us off this Rock before the Army gets here."

Zero will tell the ship to accept MK's commands.

[OoC3: The Use Computer skill states:  Issuing routine commands doesn't normally require a Use Computer check.  But incase in this instance it does...]
