    Shay Savage
    “Elizabeth."
    I feel my smile on my face as I understand what she is doing. Though it's a strange one, she has a name-sound just like I do, and she's telling me what it is. I try to make the same sounds.
    "Ehh..beh." I frown. Why is her name-sound so difficult and so long?
    She frowns right back at me and says it again. "Elizabeth."
    "Beh-tah-babaa."
    She sighs and her forehead wrinkles.
    "Elizabeth. Eeee-lizzzz-ahh-beth."
    "Laahh...baaay."
    She taps her chest again.
    "Beth!"
    The sound is shorter but still very odd.
    "Beh-bet."
    "Beth," she repeats.
    I've had enough. I reach out and touch her should.
    "Beh."
    "Beth."
    I tap her a little harder and growl.
    "Beh", I repeat. I tap her again. "BEH!"
    Her eyes widen a bit, and she inhales sharply. A moment later, her shoulders drop and she sighs.
    "Beh," she says quietly.”
    Shay Savage, Transcendence
