At least she couldn't be too surprised with Murphy's attitude towards the subject. Disease? Pregnancy? These were important dilemmas with the human body, weren't they?
Reproduction obviously seemed like such a negative sanction with anyone aboard the Tranquility society. Maybe even a taboo considering she never heard anyone speak of it in public. And it had taken such effort to make Murphy say these things out loud—Maybe it was her fault for not understanding though.
When she finally spoke, her voice remained gentle. (Why would she be upset with Murphy about something he didn't know?)
"There are extremely few things that can make me sick, Muprhy... My immune system has been several times enhanced so I don't get obtain any sort of disease through wounds or poisoning."
There's only a small pause before she continues with an almost cautionary tone in response to his own.
"And I'm not capable of becoming pregnant, so please don't worry about that..."
